I work in education; the whole system, the disregard for children and a sense of the corrupt and selfish egomaniacs is hugely concerning.
I feel there is lack of common sense and understanding in general, everyday life.
My parents think of Britain as a large and dominant force; something proud and respected. I don't. This isn't a thread about Brexit, but without Europe I feel we are tiny and rather stupid.
Other countries I would choose, I don't know? In education terms New Zealand and some Scandinian countries are well respected for understanding children's needs and basing their education system on children. ( hey! what a simple idea that is, ask the professionals and create a system based on their expertise, groundbreaking!).
I didn't like the time I spent in Spain, but love the culture in the Netherlands. Liberal, common sense, less pressure. Simple things like their bike culture, linked to great public transport. A sense of responsibility for yourself rather than a nanny state.
I have always loved my country, a real home bird. My parents lived abroad and I would defend my country to the hilt.
Not now.
