HOW TO PUT THE "GREAT" BACK IN BRITAIN ?

Whatever happened to Great Britain?

In varying degrees its Health Service, Universities, Schools, Energy policy, #Immigration management, and the Benefit and Transport systems, appear to be broken. If that wasn't enough it pursues questionable "green" policies and subscribes to the view that not only is the climate changing ( of course its bloody changing ! ) but the changes are quite definitely man-made, and ultimately catastrophic. 

Frank discussions are no more.  Political correctness stifles the expression of true feelings and "#Human Rights" allow almost anyone to get away with almost anything! Mention the word "blame" at your peril. The #European Union daily imposes ridiculous restrictions on the British lifestyle, its industry its commerce and its population. And the #UK sits happily back and takes it?

It's about time they woke up to the fact that a succession of incompetent governments are to blame.  Governments which have dragged an uncertain population into a #European Union, governments which have failed to put in place a managed immigration policy, failed to properly organise schools, universities and health and social services. 

For example thirty years or so ago the #teaching community were not discouraged from wandering down liberal (small "l")  pathways. They did so happily accompanied, as it happens, by soul mates the #BBC and the #Guardian newspaper.  Now this was a real climate change and chances are it contributed hugely to the UK we observe from mainland Europe today. 

But the blame is not limited to a succession of incompetent governments; there are incompetent individuals out there who also carry much of the blame. Politicians, #doctors, #nurses, #teachers, #journalists, #industrialists and so on and so on. Sometimes they made mistakes; sometimes they were simply incompetent.  The anti-blame culture has been their biggest ally. 

Now's the time for the U.K. to sort things out before it's too late.  Time to get real, to be honest about its predicament, to be courageous and above all learn to act with common sense. 

It's time to elect a government capable of getting a grip, capable of being honest and fair. It's time to elect a government capable of doing what makes sense for the U.K. however unpopular it might seem: a government of common sense.

The question is "Do the U.K. electorate care?"  I wonder.......
