• Interesting, so austerity in the uk was due to the EU, you learn something new every day don't you.

  • These people also vote Trump in the USA. Same reasons. Deprivation. Jobs going. No opportunities brought there. Old identities lost.

    Bernie Sanders offered a possible way out, but others decided they rather have Hillary or Trump. If we end up with the Tories, same issues the lady is (rightfully) addressing are going to get worse.

    What is the link the EU has imposed austerity? As these issues have persisted in mainland EU for decades, it's the lack of wealth sharing and not being able to deal with a global economy.

  • Quite simple really. Get off your arse and retrain in something that is sought after by employers. The areas that were affected by the mining and steel industry declines were offered millions of £ in opportunities to retrain. If you don't like where you live, move. This country offers flexibility other countries are envious of. Indonesians, Malaysians, Indian etc would love to have the opportunities we Brits are given.
    But as a nation we seem to prefer to bitch and moan rather than do something about what we're bitching and moaning about.

    TBH though I'm glad I'm around to see what's going to happen next, politics has just got exciting.
