Mark 1.15 15 And saying, The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: repent ye, and believe the gospel. 2 Peter 3:9 The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance. Hebrews 11:6 6 But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him. Jesus

The factors that favoured success of the UK in the period of 1750 to 1850 were already beginning to change and this became apparent in the Great Exhibition of 1851 and became more apparent in a series of International Exhibitions in Paris, Berlin and New York in the last quarter of the nineteenth century. Air Technology totally obliterates any advantage of being an Island as Hiroshima and Nagasaki demonstrate and now a net work of Railways connecting the EU and Europe will place us at a greater disadvantage because Rail is and was and will be the most cost effective, least polluting transport system ,Physics is patent ,better than Air better than Sea. So all in all the British were and are wrong, and misinformed and clearly lack the necessary information to challenge the much distorted History and Politics fed to them by Farage and Reform .This country and its leaders have been subverted by the worst press and media in Europe. In this election no politician has raised his head above the parapet to challenge Farage' distorted facts ,fallacies and wilful mendacity, the Tory Party did not dissociate themselves from Brexit, they did not correct the wilful fallacies so a badly educated populace which has been flattered and deceived, and told what splendid people they were, and encouraged to believe in the past. All our yesterdays, And the press has been the mirror of lower middle class conceit, the barely respectable. I ask again how can people imagine that a Rapist and a Fraud is the President the USA needs? and now can the British People believe in, and hail the man endorsed by Trump should to be the prime minister we need. But there is another problem which accounts for our failure, The British have been encouraged to imagine they are top dog, they have not collaborated, openly, or rather they have not admitted they have collaborated, and so the people do not know, do not understand that the world has changed, they do not understand the change, they do not realise that we ceased to be a great power, but we hung on grimly to a delusion of the past that was not the success it was cracked up to be. No country can cleave to yesterday, but they have to be taught which are ineffable ethics and what are mutable factors but our politicians do not understand hence this massive hypocrisy. Every year since the first performance of Messiah in Dublin the aria What do the nations so furiously rage together against the lord and his anointed, and why do the nations imagine a vain thing, but they thought that meant every one but themselves. . And now a woman who stormed out of the Anglican Church because of women clergy is the law and order spokes-person who thinks a leader who is OK with Rape and Fraud Rape., She has not even asked herself how that is possible?, And in that colossal lack of self-knowledge the country flounders because they elect people like that and then blame every one but themselves. And the history they accept is spun to absurdity by media people whose mental rigidity and reaction are habit. A Michael Gove that thinks Climate Change Science is a Marxist plot, aided and abetted by the ranter par excellence, Peter Hitchins, an Historian who compare Brexit with the dynastic Problems of Henry VIII, another who compares it with the Repeal of the Corn Laws and an anachronism dressed in fancy costume such as no one has worn since the death of Victoria , cannot understand the difference between Statute Law and standards and regulations incorporated into Law by treaty to protect the British Population. When Laurel and Hardy become politicians do you expect serious politics? But they were elected or heeded, despite the absurdity of the whole dam lot. They call it 'Common sense' You realise part of the problem in the the comments the whining because their candidate has been asked searching questions, this is thought of as bias, but only because they they do not know what the BBC and ITV charters were, only because they think media is there to masturbate their prejudices, anything else is bias ,treason or conspiracy, and it the mentality of the lower middle class but technology has rendered them, the average man defunct and obsolete. Every country has them and they are all facing the menace of mediocrity, ignorance, stupidity, credulous and nursing a grievance against whom they know not, but someone must be to blame. Such nicepeopleasthey see in their mirror it can be them. This was the mind set of the Wolkische Beobachter the pioneer of gutter Journalism and the Murdoch Press, and the Daily Mail realised their was revenue and care not a jot it was Fascism.

It also needs saying, one of the main reasons for immigration is English being the official languages of so many countries, ex-colonies, or English being the #1 taught foreign language. Of course that when someone grows up speaking English outside of England/US/Australia/etc. they want to go to an originally English country, if not even out of curiosity. It is a very unfortunate effect of having your language as the international one, but it is a problem that should be addressed properly too. People who from the beginning are at risk of homelessness (can't speak the language properly but still emigrate to the UK (example: don't have a language proficiency test), don't have secondary education, don't have proper identity documents, etc.) should be prevented from arriving in great numbers for no good reason. But I know and you should know that Eu or non EU, the British rules state that if someone without papers arrives on the isles and claims they have nowhere to go, then the person is given "refuge", and that is a law that has existed for well over 100 years in loose terms (in practice, this is what happens). It also bothers me to read how people can't make the difference between the freedom of movement of people (wanting to live in another country is not a crime and we're not cultural marxists?), so a legal immigrant, and an illegal immigrant (which can also have good causes or unfortunate roots, there's a lot of nuance, for example person trafficking or crime allegations that only constitute a crime on the country they live in but not in the one they are arriving into - e.g. certain human right activists in the UAE; the nuance being that a person who ends up as an illegal immigrant TYPICALLY doesn't do so out of their own free choice and volition, but coercion in some direct or indirect form). However, just as true is that the culture and people of a place shouldn't be allowed to take the brunt of "wanting to help", loose central policies, or wrong politician morals. Remember though that very little people would acre about the UK if they weren't FORCED to learn English since kindergarten. Everyone has to learn English nowadays from school. Have you never questioned the effects of that? Or why that is happening?

Suppress wages? Corporations offer jobs at certain wage rates and conditions. If Brits don't want to do them - Corporations press the government to allow in foreign workers. If you don't want foreign workers elect politicians who will shut that down. Unfortunately that will mean many corporations may go out of business. Best to think this one through before fulminating at foreign workers. Just like brexit pack of horse sh*t that promised Britain would rise if unshackled from the EU. How did that go exactly?

Those now homeless ex tenants, evicted by the banks were re-housed into fewer council homes left.

I have lived and worked in England and I have family there, but I now live in New Zealand. I thank my lucky stars I moved out here. I returned to England two years ago to visit family and friends in Newcastle, Leeds and Norwich. The quality of life has deteriorated so badly, it was depressing. Everything is run down. Hotel rooms are expensive and the quality is poor. Car rental is exorbitant and it is impossible to avoid getting a parking ticket or a speeding ticket. Restaurants and bars are half-empty most of the time and the supermarkets are filled with produce that is of a very basic quality. The Health Service is crumbling and I wasn't even able to get to a dentist after one of my fillings fell out. The High Street is filled with poundsaver and thrift shops and the once good-natured and fair-minded English people seem to have been replaced by a more dour and mean-spirited community. Sadly, I couldn't wait to get back to New Zealand after a week in England. This was not the country I once loved.

It's funny how the UK labour market got infused with millions of skilled workers from Poland and other EU countries in the 00s and 10s, which could have resulted in a great economic gain, but the UK government completely fumbled the opportunity - actually not only that, they actively shot themselves in the foot by making it harder for those migrant workers to stay in the UK and new ones to come in (brexit). Now, these people are coming back to their home countries, taking all their experience and know-how with them. No wonder Poland is going to take over the UK in the coming years. The British politicians and their voters did everything in their power to make it so.

@@wulfsorenson8859 I don't know, I'm sorry to hear that you were made redundant. The point I'm trying to make is that this video and everyone in the comments section is saying that the UK is a terrible place to live, so much so that nobody wants to come here. This is patently false. Instead of making hyperbolic comments about wanting to leave the UK, perhaps people should suggest solutions. The UK has a major STEM skills shortage at the moment, predominantly due to short term government policy. Countries like Germany really value technical qualifications and apprenticeships for example. Perhaps we should be encouraging more people into STEM fields by subsidising their tuition fees and providing meaningful apprenticeships to serious people.

@@johnkelly1083 The U.K. doesn’t have a STEM shortage at all. Employers are simply totally unwilling to train qualified graduates with not much experience in engineering or infact in any field.

My partner who is a state primary school teacher had the police come investigate a shooting outside the school last week, this is not normal for the UK. We're feeling less and less safe here and the houses on the road I rent on are worth a million pounds (no joke i looked at what theyre being sold at)! Being asked to fork out huge sums of your pay each month to live in a dodgy area where its rare for me to leave the flat and not see some sort of incident, its just not worth it anymore in my opinion.

The UK is still a wealthy country, but the distribution of that wealth is far from fair.

Go ahead, go further into socialism. You'll make the problem far worse. The error of this entire statement is that it assumes two things: 1) That wealth is a zero sum game, that someone getting richer must make someone else poorer. 2) It focuses on the GAP of wealth and not how the poorest people are doing. If the general population is doing okay then why do I care how much the "super rich" are making? That's just envy and greed. Now, the general population is NOT doing okay but it's BECAUSE of anti-capitalist policies. NHS needs to have more private control. The government needs to get off this "net zero" nonsense so people can afford heat and petrol. They need to lower taxes to attract people and businesses back. Their quasi-socialistic system is what's CAUSING the problems in the first place, like curing cancer by injecting cancer cells!

Almost criminal that you say "Actually, the NHS has more funding" without pointing out that NHS Trusts have been introduced which - in some areas - skim off as much as FIFTY PERCENT of that funding. Yes, the government is paying MORE for the NHS (but also after "to the bone" cuts were made in the early 2010s) but a significant portion of that money is going to yacht money, NOT to the NHS. What the UK has done over the last decade is strip things back to "save costs" that we didn't need to save (the deficit was not an issue) - this has lined the pockets of the rich. Now that services have been stripped, the true costs have been revealed. The lack of support now means that government is having to pay MORE to fix the issues than they used to spend, AND most of that is to private, foreign companies which means the money LEAVES the UK Economy. Look at bin collections, for example. Having cut the services to "save money", numerous other issues emerged as a result, and to "fix" the issue, councils now contract out to American companies like Biffa, who pay their local staff appallingly, provide a "streamlined" service, all to increase profits to their AMERICAN shareholders. Same with our railways, and now with our NHS too. We've cut services to "save costs", which is now costing exponentially more in the long run, all to make capitalists even richer. The UK has been at the forefront of the Libertarian Experiment. It hasn't worked, and we're now in endgame capitalism. When we go hungry, we eat the rich.

Infrastructure, houses and even people are looking bad; lack of maintenance and proper care. Currently on our way to Sweden at a stop in the north of Germany and so much more pleasant to be in a region not in decline
@sweetnerevar3509Ай бұрын
As someone who's lived in Sweden for 6 months and got a lot of friends there, I can safely say they have similar issues but are more spread out since it's less densly populated. There just about a decade of decline behind us really.

@@Martin-88not at all. Firstly the number is bigger than a million. Secondly it is overwhelmingly unskilled illegal immigrants, mostly muslim, who are for the time being almost a total cost to the country with very little actual income arising from them. The numbers are not a compliment to the UK (other than the benefits and welfare system), they are an outright threat.

If you import millions of third worlders and give them preference over native British people, you will get a housing crisis. The first duty of a government is to protect the interests of the NATIVE PEOPLE of said nation. A government which fails to make this their top priority is treasonous and illegitimate. No other people on earth allow themselves to be displaced and bullied by foreigners. It is illegal for foreigners to own property in China. Thailand does not allow foreigners to displace its people. Japan does not force its citizens to suffer through an open border with the third world.

I retired 2 years ago. I was quite well off at first. Now I'm not. I have to rent unfortunately after a divorce. My rent has risen by nearly 40% in the last few years. I now struggle with day to day costs and have taken to working part-time, which, although it's mentally stimulating, It can't continue indefinitely. My partner is from Latvia and tells me how much better life would be if we lived there. She's convincing me. Although I would prefer France. But yes, I am seriously thinking abut calling it a day and getting off this Island.

Prioritizing effective personal finance management holds greater significance than the sheer amount saved, irrespective of income source. Consulting a certified financial advisor can offer tailored strategies to optimize financial results by reducing expenses and enhancing income, regardless of whether it's earned through employment or investments.

As I’m a British citizen by choice, I have a home country to go back. I need over £5000.income per month to pay for a studio apartment and pay for utilities,food etc . Although I would love to continue to live in London, it’s impossible now. So in a couple of months I’d be moving back to my motherland. With my monthly pension, I could afford to live a modest life. I could afford to pay my bills easily and afford fresh vegetables and fruits etc. Old age should be FREE from financial worries. Those who can afford to move out of poverty and want should think carefully and settle down elsewhere. I think over immigration is ruining the UK.

People are so dramatic about the U.K. and its economy. The tories ruined alot of things in the U.K. but it’s not as bad as so many KZfaq videos make it out to be. Japan has been stagnant since the 90s, France has a much larger debt crisis than the U.K, Italy and Spain have been struggling for 15 years but most focus is always on the U.K. economy. Even though wages are higher than all of these countries, government debt is lower and wealth is much higher

Who would want to live in a country where enjoying the outdoors is next to impossible due to relentless rain, wind and low temperatures? It is currently July, yet I am dressed in the exact same clothes as I would be in January! It's possibly the most miserable country on earth for weather, literally any other country in the world gets more sunlight and less days written off due to rain and brutally cold winds! Even the wettest place on the planet (Mawsynram) has a dry season where it hardly rains for months. Here we are stuck in a permanent winter with the exception of maybe 3-7 days a year when it is warm enough to leave the heavy coat at home. Sadly it's not a crisp and dry winter with snow that allows for things like skiing, just an endless barrage of storms and low pressure grey depressing purgatory.

My sweetheart lives in the Netherlands which seems to have the same climate. I'm in the desert in the US and she loves it here but she has to live there a third of the time for another 5 years or lose her pension. Places where life sucks try to keep you from leaving. It took her two years of paperwork to get out of Russia back in the 1990s. Now it's going to take 5 years of paperwork to get out of the Netherlands and live part time in the US. I keep telling her that if I drop her off in Mexico and she crosses the border illegally things will be easier but she wants to obey the laws.

My family is a one income household and we cover all of our expenses and save £1,000 a month. My brother and his wife both work full time with nothing leftover. I get amazing and timely support from the NHS, Australians are shocked at what I get for free, especially my friend who has £20,000 of medical debt. I wouldn't go back if you paid me.
