A lot of energy has been expended over the past three years trying to make those 17.4 million votes count. Doesn't seem to have got us anywhere

Love this post. are you really saying though that nothing but a left wing labour government could deliver what you describe. Individuals are free to invest their time (and wealth) into society whenever they want. Any government, irrespective of its credos, should be looking after those that are most in need of care and creating opportunity for every individual, irrespective of their circumstances. The fact that out austerity Tory Government have done what they have done does not mean that capitalism is wrong.

I am saying a left wing government delivers it better than a government in hoc to capitalism. Trickle down economics, the great dream of neo-liberalism has failed the nation miserably and we have the situation where the 6th richest nation on the planet is one of the most unequal, where thousands are homeless, foodbanks are necessary, the disabled have their welfare cut, people are sanctioned for being a minute late for an appointment, getting a doctors appointment is like getting a derby ticket, nurses have to pay to be educated, Junior doctors are worked to the bone, teachers are leaving the profession in droves, schools have to ask parents to buy toilet rolls and books, the roads are full of potholes, the army is the smallest since Napoleonic times, the navy could sail on Platt lane boating lake,unions are powerless, there is a lack of police, fire stations are closed, the young leave Uni with huge debt, rents are ridiculous, people cant save for a deposit for home, the minimum wage is a joke, pensioners will be forced to pay to watch TV, libraries are being closed, local government is falling apart, social services are on their arse, the NHS is underfunded, school buildings have leaking roofs, the rail network is laughable, heavy industry is non existant, the high streets are like ghost towns, knife crime is out of control, drug abuse is rampant, mental health provision is virtually nil, universal credit is a failure, the car industry has gone, we don't build ships anymore, there is not enough homes built, the ambulance service is outsourced, prisons are schools for criminals, the environment is fucked, the oil boom money was wasted, people have to work longer than ever, the arts are suffering, museums are closing, Parliament Is falling down, waiting times in hospital are up, child poverty is rising, pensioner poverty is up, child benefit cut, tax credits gone, the buses are a mess, the northern powerhouse a pipe dream, VAT is up, scientific research is down and that is just of the top of my head.

But tax cuts give you choice...………….apparently!!!!!!!

When you take the above into consideration is not exactly a ringing endorsement of capitalism is it, in fact it is a disaster for the nation unless you have wealth and the above does not matter because you are above society, you are an individual and you matter most, the people can go and fuck themselves as I want a new Porsche.

So eloquent.
I won’t argue with your description of the U.K. as it is as you describe. But European countries such as Holland, Sweden, Denmark seem to be happier, better run. They don’t have left wing governments.

If you'd like something interesting to listen to with your cocoa I can heartily recommend this analysis of the eight weather systems that constitute the UK's perfect storm.
