It all began to go tits up when women got the vote.
That's not funny.It all began to go tits up when women got the vote.
Your cognitive bias is showing.The problem comes when you look at who he has to form a government with. One Lawyer a woman without any GCSEs and another who can't add up doesn't make a government
WW2 causing the UK serious problems is a fact. It alos made the USA rich, They are doing well now aren't they.I would also say WW2.
Brits had the attitude that they were better than Johnny Foreigner .
They went on to produce the "BL Cars Marina", and the Rolls Royce nice wedding car.
Germans knew they had to drag their blood soaked arses out of the gutter and do some work.
They went on to produce the VW Golf, Beamers and Mercs. Which they exported in tens of millions.
I don't know when it went wrong but if you have ever been to Germany and then visit England the question arises,I would also say WW2.

When it comes to so-called rank and file politicians, I don't doubt many of them are there for the right reasons, working hard for their constituency and so on. When it comes to politicians that want to climb the proverbial greasy pole to the top, that's a different story. The very traits that make people want to become leaders often means they are focused on different things in their quest to reach the top.
Maybe proportional representation would be a good start?

The thing is though, even as I type the above, I'm left thinking 'what's the alternative?' If we rebuilt our political system from the ground up, what exactly should we create that the masses would deem more balanced and fair? Maybe proportional representation would be a good start?
I've said it previously in other threads, I'm relatively confident we'll eventually be the masters of our own downfall. If humankind was wiped out bar one man and one woman who then conceived and started to build the population from scratch, we'd eventually end up in the same mess. Why? Because we need structure as a society
The news is dominated by those who support the narrative.PR would be a good start, but until the reasons for this system are clearly laid before the electorate there's little chance of that becoming adopted in this country. FPTP suits the Tories. And they've 'arranged' the constituencies to suit this system.
There's a good number of hard working MPs who don't seek the limelight and enjoy the nuts and bolts of management; like Yvette Cooper, for instance. It's people like de Piffle who suck up all the oxygen and dominate the news who get attention to become elected that're the problem.
Ha Ha HAaaa ...If society was not patriarchal we would not be in this mess.
