What do you think is the biggest misconception that seems to be accepted by a huge majority?

[NowWhatUsernameShallIHave]

That if you’re rich or skinny you’re automatically happy

That the UK is overpopulated.Its true in certain parts of the country but not UK as a whole. So many people believe this.

The lack of housing supply is to do with planning laws, private developers having vested interests and not building enough and a London centric economy which means that people who want careers all move to 1 place.

That the European Court of Human Rights is an EU institution

That Brexit won't be an unmitigated disaster that will effect everyone negatively in ways they haven't even imagined. Oh and that an Australian No Deal wasn't the plan all along.

Common law wife misconceptions

That Trump and Biden are "equally bad"

That "terrorists" are evil.

That "terrorists" are evil.

My politics lecturer used to say (and I assume he didn't make it up) "freedom fighters are people in countries you've heard of fighting for causes you agree with, terrorists are people in countries you've heard of fighting for causes you disagree with, guerillas are people in countries you've never heard of fighting for causes you don't understand". Succinct!

That Mrs Brown's Boys is funny.

That getting married and having children will make you happy

That a government's/country's finances are the same as a household budget. The role of debt.

That just because I smile doesn't mean I don't have depression
That just because I can take my son to school does not mean I don't have anxiety
That OCD doesn't just mean either cleaning or hording
That bipolar isn't just either depressed or manic.

might be having a bad day filled with fuckwits

That everyone in the room agrees with them.

That the Tory party are competent stewards of the economy.

That bombarding people with YouTube conspiracy videos will force them to listen to and watch the 'research' you've done sat on your arse on a chair in front of a screen, likely smoking skunk weed at the same time.

That it's illegal to open post that isn't addressed to you

That an employer can't end your employment due to ill health
