I think Scotland will be the first to achieve independence from England since a good amount of people are starting to get sick of parliament. The UK used an obsolete law that's never been enforced just to make life harder for trans people and that's kind of been a big catalyst in Scottish independence gaining traction again. I don't think Northern Ireland will last much longer in the UK after that. The inevitable abolition of the monarchy will put an end to the UK since we wouldn't even be a Kingdom anymore. Either way this is definitely the end of the United KIngdom now and it's going to happen within the century.
It pretty much is. People are literally pulling their own teeth out because they can't get dental care, the cost of living crisis is so extreme that at one point I was spending £50 a week on food for just myself, the NHS is basically on its last legs due to conservative incompetence and people are dying of easily treatable cancers and illnesses because by the time they're actually seen to it's already too late. On top of that our government is sending money to Ukraine and supporting Israel, our politicians are turning the lynchings of trans people into a game of political football, and the entire political system is literally primarily based on documents that were written between the 13th and 18th centuries. If you think America sucks I genuinely do not see the UK surviving this decade.
The fact that 21% of my country's population thinks things are going in the right direction here is fucking insane to me. The UK is literally one of the worst countries in the world right now.
Unsurprising unfortunately
Horrible. My heart goes out to everyone who has been killed or injured and their families.
People already are on Twitter. Disgusting behaviour.
Westerners (mainly Americans and the British) are so used to voting for the lesser of two evils that they can't even comprehend that a country might actually like their leader. I don't like Putin but that doesn't mean Russians also don't like him.

I never use the internet without an ad blocker. If a website asks me to disable mine I just won't use it.
John Fogerty is unfortunately a self admitted lib but I've always liked this song.
Most GPs are completely booked up unless you live in a town no one cares about meaning its nigh on impossible to just find a different doctor, same with dentists. Something like 80% of dentists are not taking on new patients.
Conservative government ridiculously underfunding the understaffed NHS which is causing 18 month wait times for simple MRI scans, understaffed and expensive dentists meaning people are resorting to pulling out their own teeth, both of the main parties are incredibly transphobic, the cost of greed crisis (I refuse to call it a cost of "living" crisis) means everyone is struggling to even afford food, among many many other reasons but those are the main ones for me
As someone who lives in the UK, I can confirm that this is accurate. The UK is a disaster of a country and I'm making plans to leave ASAP.
This is unsurprising given Nintendo's history
