        Joke’s on you, in the UK we have a “left wing” government and they’re doing the best they can to fight against privacy!

        Oh wait… I guess the joke’s on us nvm.

          Yeah… I pay attention to UK politics mostly to avoid hyper focusing on depressing domestic politics, and it’s devastating to see Labor shit the bed the way they have.

          Like, you guys are supposed to be better than us (it’s a low bar)! But they squandered their mandate in the most perverse and infuriating way. I’m sorry. Shit sucks.

          Anyway, that’s my half-assed perspective from listening to Pod Save the UK, the Bugle, and reading the occasional article.

            the UK has it rough. They have a dogshit conservative government for a decade and then get pissed when the left cant clean it up in a single term. Also most of the voters are still falling for conservative outrage bait drumming up a ton of distraction issues like migrant crime and rape gangs.

          They did, this guy is just being edgy and predictable.

          Blame all problems on conservatives, even when there not in power. Libdippers can do no wrong. /s

            I mean, the Libs are doing everything I’d expect from Stephen Harper’s Bank of Canada guy and the Tory’s Bank of England guy.

            Not being able to tell if the Libs or Cons are in charge just feels like more evidence of how far we’ve ratcheted to the right.

        I’m sure liberals would pass on the opportunity to have more power and control and would totally thrash the whole thing.

        /s, but should be obvious
