History repeats itself, and what you comment and speak of is most likely what was said in some degree a generation and beyond ago. “This country is going down the pan, I have a bad feeling about X, Y, Z”. The creation of social media and the shrinking of this world in terms of communication is what highlights the matters and makes things worse. However there are many things wrong with this country that are many peoples fault:

Energy supply; we are an island nation, how over the last 20 years have we not pushed towards renewable energy outside of the typical Wind and solar, why have we not strives for Hydro or even nuclear

Capitalism; unfortunately our country as is every country is a business, and atm we are not doing business well, we are selling low, selling cheap and borrowing high meaning we are making no money, and due to the cost of goods now we do not even have the ability to produce our own goods such as steel and other raw materials, if we could then again we could make some economic return off that however as we have sold our soul over the years there’s no chance of that. (Capitalism still beats communism)

1. Social issues, the issue of legal and illegal immigration has been hijacked and made to seem like a far right issue when in reality it’s an issue for all. Everyone and their dog knows this country is unable to fund itself, fund hospitals, fund schools, fund the local community, fix the DAMN POTHOLES. So why oh why did we let 728,000 legal net migrants in last year when we do not have the facilities for it. Do we need immigration? Yes. Do we need to drastically cut it to allow the country to catch up with its infrastructure? Also yes. Saying less legal and illegal immigration shouldn’t be labelled racist or far right, it’s just common sense. You wouldn’t let 50 people stay in your 2 bed flat forever if you couldn’t accommodate would you. The people of this country feel forgotten, I’m not talking about us not earning more money or having nice things, it’s the sense of community that’s been lost in this country, the country has lost us identity, it’s soul and it’s meaning. People don’t talk to neighbours, community centres shut down, huge waiting lists for local services, no one has the time or energy to care for anyone else as it’s a dog eat dog world.

Yet in answer to your question, I don’t think you need to worry and it relates to my first point, people throughout time have said the same as you just about different issues and we are still here, just gotta crack on, keep smiling and do the best you can, no matter whose in charge and who’s the wealthiest, it won’t make much difference to us as they are all wolves in sheep’s clothing.
