If the fucking Ukraine can do it, so can the UK. But I agree with @Obonga, the Brits would rather crash their economy five times over than be one among equals. Who knows, maybe the Scots and a united Ireland will join us someday.

It’s just “fucking Ukraine” not “the fucking Ukraine” FYI.

I see your point, but I think you underestimate how corrupt and self centered our politicians are.

At the highest governmental level it’s all about looking after your own pocket in all circumstances, the UK is genuinely doomed

Doesn’t sound like a UK-specific problem, sadly :(

That’s generally a western problem. Our politicians are so weak they can barely be arsed to just line their own pockets anymore. The Big Wheel of History is turning towards hardship again. Maybe together at the other side? See you guys in a united Europe of equals in 2150. Cheers.

What the pathologically greedy can’t seem to comprehend is that in order for them to remain wealthy and for their businesses to grow, they need stability. Their actions throughout the “western world” undermines that stability in the most astoundingly shortsighted ways (as usual)…

Apparently they’d all fail the marshmallow test we give children. They all want the marshmallow now even though they’d get more in the end if they weren’t so goddamn greedy…

It certainly feels like our shitty politicians are selling themselves short. They’d trade our national dignity and wellbeing for a stick of gum.
