It's all part of our imminent demise into a third world country.
Britain IS a Third World Country.
Compare life in the UK today with world economies and living standards across he world and it's not a pretty picture that emerges.
OK some things are pretty good - but only some.
Our NHS is crap. The patient care is pretty good from the staff but to be honest not brilliant. The actual service delivered by the NHS varies from about adequate to awful when compared to most countries - and VERY expensive which we don't notice because the money comes out of general taxation.
Infrastructure is dreadful, housing is hardly spectacular for most especially compared to the Far East, food use mostly second rate with the best we produce being exported and the imports are far from being top shelf stuff. Compare food in even just the hypermarkets around Calais with what is on offer here for starters. That's why we take a shopping trip over there every two or three months. As or fresh food such as fruit and veg -- no comparison.
There's as hell of a lot worse places than here but equally we are no longer a First World Nation.
