Freedom of speech has gone out the window,
1984 rules and regulations are fully on show,
What are the real motivations of Starmer & co?
A place of forgotten pride, forever tarnished,
Those UK politicians don't care about your wish.
Doubtful that this was ever really a democracy,
More like a cesspool of power hungry and crazy.

What would ET think?! lol.
Probably fly off lol.
They say that the acorn does not fall far from the tree and so goes the illusion of liberty, nothing more than a shadow that disappears on a cloudy day and lines written in invisible ink on a crumbling constitution. A good write my friend
Indeed, everything crumbling before our eyes.
Sad
Those politicians that tarnished our country are on the way out. One party is imploding, the other one is led by a human rights lawyer who fails his own people every day, and would be gone if an election was tomorrow.
Its so bad isn't it.
Only going to get worse.
I feel this too.
My memories of the sixties, seventies and part eighties there was a little different. I'd be a fool to claim it was perfect, but by all accounts (yours and others) it has gone down the gurgler since.
I wish I could go back to those times.
Was ist mit Deutschland geschehen ?
An interesting write with a great moral point. Enjoyed the read immensely.
Cheers.
