I've just spent two months in Austria and it has been a stark demonstration of how shit things are in the UK.
Living standards are better. Things are cheaper and despite being a pretty right wing conservative countey they have adults in charge who make long term policies to benefit the people rather than win votes.
The political and social attituse is just completely different. Not saying they are perfect by any stretch but seeing a nation invest in itself and develop its own interests rather than the interests of party donors is super jarring for me right now.
