Doing his best King Charles impression.

What we have is a conflict between the population of the UK wanting their capital city to be run in the nation's best interests, who don't get to vote...

...and the interests of the people living in London, who want what's in their own personal interests (especially free stuff) and don't care about the rest of the country, and I'd argue even the future of London itself.

You do realise that these are elections for local councils, and a handful of local Mayors - they are all about local issues such as education, planning, local roads and transport, libraries, bin collections...

Are you really being critical of people voting in council elections according to what they want the councils to do?

Isn't London a net positive financially for the rest of the nation?

Not really. On paper yes. In reality it drains money from the rest of the economy, mostly via the banks headquartered there.

Joe Bloggs in Sunderland pays his mortgage to Barclays in his local town, who transfer that money to London.

Very little is actually produced in London. It sucks money from the rest of the country, claiming it all as though it produced it.

Many recent immigrants don't care about the state of the UK as a whole, their local council or even their own street.

They just want money, from us all, and send lots of it back to their true home.

Many belong to supra-national virtual states. We're just a money-tree.

Explain to me, please, how, and by how much, Joe Bloggs would be better off if his local Barclays kept his mortgage payments.

Please explain how they get money from their local council.

Nobody stands a chance, the islamocommies have the system completely rigged. It's 'Don't change the government, change the people'.

The rigging is done by the right wing media.

Democracy is being undermined by bringing in no-hopers with no purpose other than being paid by big government to vote for more big government.

The corruption is allowing people who don't contribute to society to shape it.

And you seriously think the answer is a party that basically says vote for us because the other lot are no good.

I know several who "don't like the UK" but their parents need the NHS, so they live here.
