Ardennes posted:The government probably will (like the US) have to spend more on public health as well in the form of subsidies. Even the US, still has to offer programs so the population doesn’t entirely die off. Debt will go up, but the biggest source of new revenue will probably be the middle class (or what’s left of it) who doesn’t pay for private care now but will have to hand over more money to stay alive. oh and there's no growth and no immigration and shite expensive education so its not like its ever going to get better either

Jose posted:Blair is back on his ID card poo poo honestly I don’t get the ID card hate, the rest of the EU has them + a unique personal number (like NI number but for more than taxes, all government dealings), it works remarkably well at having a joined up government (both national and local) who eg knows when you move house and you don’t need to get in touch with 20 different government agencies that you’ve forgot even exist. same thing with doing poo poo online, it just works. obviously with the UK being the UK they’d piss up a few tens of billions up the wall for a system that doesn’t work except for cracking down on immigrants and the poors, but that’s a UK being shite problem, not an ID cards and joined up government being bad problem

its pretty funny and illustrates the state of the modern UK that something like an ID card and joined up single-sign-on for government, automatic address changes, etc that is normal and good in other countries can't be embraced here because of how poo poo/corrupt/useless the government is better things aren't possible!

i was trying to get by train to a funeral near stafford by train from the continent, and for the london to stafford portion for some reason they weren't selling advance singles or off peak, more than 10 days in advance, a regular anytime single was £225 for a 1hr20 min journey this is the same as petrol for driving the whole entire thousand mile round trip & the chunnel costs or alternatively 10x the max train fare of €29,40 in the netherlands for a ~5 hour journey i hate england

i just went to nationalrail.co.uk and typed in euston and stafford and didn't bother going to a TOC website since i assumed (incorrectly lol) that nationalrail would show advance/off peak/cheaper anytime singles if they were available because, well it usually does/did, you only needed to go to a TOC to actually buy the tickets sadly i am english and i know the many stupid ways to buy tickets in england, but apparently not well enough

so now that the uk has crossed the rubicon and descended into literal outright fascism (as opposed to before where people vaguely pretended to hide make the dog whistles vaguely subtle) where do we go from here lol Keith is obviously authoritarian as gently caress so will actively embrace most of the fashion tendencies there’s no left wing movement to speak of any more and whatever remains of it is violently crushed and thrown in jail we already have concentration camps for migrants the only silver lining is that there’s no obvious SA but the police fulfil most of that role anyway just how bad is it going to get lol very glad I am in the process of renouncing my citizenship
