Yes it's fucking political. Everything's political. - Skunk Anansie
What the UK conservative government has managed to do this year is reduce every decision for the people down to the fundamental thought: what's the cheapest option?
There's no consideration of what's best for the environment, what's best for the long term, what's best for well-being or time management. Money is the only consideration.
Don't misunderstand me, this isn't me saying they're conspiring to make this happen, I don't believe for a second that 'the people' were a consideration when the prime minister and chancellor were making these choices. We barely exist to these people. The suffering, the humiliation, and the long term consequences we're all going to go through are meaningless to them because these are choices they have never had to make.
