How fast and far we are falling... The 2012 Olympics seems like a lifetime ago.

Less of the 'collective we', please. These bastards are nothing to do with me or my friends.

Unfortunately we do all share the same island and have to live with the consequences of what 'our' government is doing.

But if we didn't vote for them, we're not collectively to blame for them. Living with the consequences of what yr enemies are doing agst yr will shd not mean being collectively blamed.

The trouble is as a country we elected Labour by a landslide yet still got Reform.

Yes: utter moral cowardice & duplicity from Labour, which is controlled by the Blue(shirt) faction. Also a 'landslide' based on a low share of the vote. FPTP is the core problem.

I voted LD: cdn't vote for pro-Brexit Labour, with rather terf-y local MP.

This hair you’re splitting is not a hair that’s worth splitting. “We” are being dragged down - falling - whether we like it or not. That’s not an apportion of blame - it’s a statement of fact.
