He would've held the three firewall states Trump won, but flipping Ohio and Florida as well as holding on to Nevada and Virginia going in as a socialist... I doubt it. He could. But not sure.

Yorkshire's problems for example are not the same as East Anglia's problems.
Well, I don't know.

I'm not a fan of their stance on the disabled. The disabled people are treated poorly in England. I see so many (and this physically disabled) walking around with no one to rely on. Disabled people are looked as a problem there and are mostly ignored.

I get the impression that many English people think that people who have ANY problems (may that be financial woes, disability etc) is a burden and has no excuse for the way that they have turned out. No circumstance is good enough.

The disabled have been treated very badly by this government. English people are rather selfish, and really only care about themselves.

I didn't "realise" that until you pointed it out OK sorry bad joke.....




I'm glad it's a joke though, I would have lost all hope for humanity otherwise.

The requirements to become a police officer here are a joke. The whole criminal justice system needs to be reformed.

The media seems to worship the police for every single act they do...whether it's job related or charity. Lots of PR crap. Oh, this kind officer bought little Jimmy a bike for Christmas. Whoop-de-freakin-doo...other agencies, organizations, and individuals do it all the time without being attention whores.
