Going to France to sell rubber boats by the English channel.

Just had the inspiration for this business from an SW thread talking about illegals.

Do you reckon it will be great sales if I add a list of all the words the English mispronounce? How about a pound of spices?

Absolutely. Go ahead. My country is slowly losing the plot.

Jokes aside, you guys are mostly alright people.

@Miram I know. But unfortunately our last government fucked up things so badly, that any government could not make the changes people are desperate for in the short term (and it's not like the current government has not made many, many missteps).

This is all paving the way for people to think ANY party, ANYONE other than Tories or Labour is what the UK desperately needs. So the far-right Reform (brilliant name, unfortunately a brilliant politician leading them) is ready to step in and pretend to be the answer. Boy will people be disappointed.

My only crumb of comfort is that Reform have talked loudly about reforming our voting system to proportional representation, which would benefit ALL of the smaller parties. If, in the nightmare scenario they are elected in 2029, I hope they keep their promise.

Unfortunately, it wouldn't surprise me if Farage goes strangely silent on the PR issue.
