Applaud the OP for raising this, but never seems like anyone really process these facts and thinks about how changing anything may be worthwhile. People will still live in a smug, complacent, pompous conservative fantasy world about changing anything or what we need to address. Maybe this is inevitable from living in post-imperial Britain. But then, Orwell refers to this type of English conservative tendency going back years, so maybe it will never change. That fills me with dread, and have railed against my whole life, it's just allowing this country to be wrecked in every way. What do you think OP?
