I'm getting really frustrated with the way things are being run by politicians and I wondered if it is just me?
Things that frustrate me:
- Failure to tax the big corporations like Facebook, Google and Amazon (I realise that this is a global problem).
- House prices that exclude young people from the housing market
- Climate change
- Underfunding of the NHS
- Underfunding of schools
- Erosion of workers right by zero hours contracts and companies like Uber.
- Westminster government ignoring the devolved nations, even during critical negotiations like Brexit and covid.
- Propping up banks when they were being so stupid in the 90s
but not propping up musicians during the covid period.
- I see greed everywhere, and it frustrates me terribly.
I've been voting to change all this kind of stuff for donkeys' years, but it doesn't seem to make any difference. I just wondered if anybody had any thoughts? I'm happy to hear anything at all.
I don't plan to repond to comments as I know this is a huge and complex topic.
I just would be really interested to hear what others think.
YABU - representative democracy is just fine, and I feel that our politicans represent my views
YANBU - I understand your frustrations and agree either completely, or to some extent.
Please give details. I would really like to know what you think.
