To think the UK will become a barren, post-apocalyptic, dystopian, hell-scape if Labour win?

[Fiftypencepiece]

AIBU to be worried that within 2-3 years of a Labour victory, the UK will become a barren, post-apocalyptic, dystopian hell-scape?

Kier Starmer seems like a mad, leftist radical to me. It starts with VAT on school fees but where does it end???

I’m also really concerned that the imminent collapse of civilisation will have a big impact on house prices, and leave us in negative equity.

Anyone else?

Collapse of civilisation?? I'd better go and get the washing in

Today on Mumsnet:

Russian invasion. We stockpile barrels of grain. WE PREP.

Weed addicted 18 year olds. A lost generation. We weep.

VAT will kill the independent school. Never mind Westminster, but who will speak for the indies?!?!?!? We rely on (gasp) the local comp.

DESPAIR! DESPAIR!! Mumset. The end is nigh!

yep. I thought we were there already?!

You didn't enable voting...?

I have a feeling the cats will take advantage of Labour collapsing the UK. They will finally take over and enslave humanity for ever.

yes, it will be like the hunger games. Which is great because that will mean the trains are good.

Teenagers will save us.

Will we all have to dress like Effie Trinkette?😬

You are hilarious. You been on the vino already? 🤣

The economy might be better.
But I worry about the increased immigration that will come. I don't agree with the VAT on private schools but it won't really affect my children in grammar schools. I also worry about the wokeism that will spread.

But the teenagers are lost. They are, in the words of a popular thread “REALLY messed up.”

We blame Covid and weed. Never has the UK seen such messed up and drug adeled youth. Not a Katniss in the bunch.

No one is coming. You must stockpile beans. And vote Tory.

I was just about to say the same!

OP I'm guessing you're not old enough to remember the 80s.

Just you ....

Not very. I'm definitely centrist politically I completely agree.

This is the problem. They all think that you’re joking, and it’s funny.

but what you’re saying is closer to the truth than anyone dares imagine because they are blinded by their normalcy bias and ego investments.

unfortunately the only way out is through, but at least those of us that can see it are somewhat prepared. All the rest will be in a very very bad state as things progress the way they’re destined to.

Good luck!

I'd say things were looking up! 😂

Well I am rewatching Shaun of the Dead, and stockpiling old LP:s, shovels, and planning on working out how to break into the pub. All good prepping for the zombie apocalypse!

Become?

Larry for leader!

Or, there's bugger all we can do about it so there is no point in worrying.

Well, the tories did advise us to get in bottled water and three days of food.

O wait, that was because the water supply in Devon was undrinkable.

I feel like this is uncomfortably prophetic regarding the election...😬

.

I'm pretty sure this happened a long tine ago...

Have you met a cat?

I know exactly how it will all end.

Look at Canada and the radical lefty cities in the USA.

Actual barren post apocalyptic hellscapes.

But it's ok, if it gets too much they will offer you MAID.

Nope
