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

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?

You sound like my exh OP.

We spoke yesterday evening and according to him the country will go to hell in a handcart because 'once Labour get in Starmer will nationalise everything: the railways, energy, water and then you'll see, nothing will work properly'; no doubt that means we'll end up with the trains not running half the time and having raw sewage pumped into our rivers? Oh, hold on.

Having said that, he (my exh) still thinks that the Conservatives are going to win the up coming election. Idiot.

... running to the shops to stockpile bog roll...

Joins you. Adds 10 gallons of zoflora to shopping list. What else do we need?

I might light the diptyque candle. Finally feels like the right sort of occasion.

Home school is the answer.
And go on benefits. Don't let Labour get hold of your taxes, they are planning to use it to buy vapes for poor people.

I actually think that the amount of anti dog posts on here is because when my cat walks over my keyboard, he is actually mastering chat gtp to infiltrate mumsnet and bring down dogs!

Cat gpt.

You forgot to mention that it's an open invitation for an alien invasion; and that it'll be a second Atlantis as we sink beneath the waves.

Just make sure you have a coca-cola bottling plant to speed up the evolution into merpeople and you will be fine.

I am old, most of my friends are old and we won't be voting Tory. My Dad died at 92 and never voted Tory. He voted Remain just before he died.

At least we'll see a decrease in male violence as all the sex predators change into women. 🤣

I was sorting out the hall cupboard the other day and found this. Now I don’t know if it’s one of DDog’s old toys or the tribbles from Star Trek have started their invasion.

I'm sure it'll take a while to undo all the Tories' hard work! The country is thriving, as you know.

CremeEggThief · 24/05/2024 14:24

Ha ha ha fuck off, OP.🤣🤣🤣🤣

This country is in the worst state it's been in since WW11. Fact.

It's actually embarrassing as an Irish person living here, having to listen to everyone from Ireland going on about the state of the UK, but it's true.

In my area it is worse than several third world countries!

He was annoyed because I wouldn't let him have some ham off my sandw.

DunkinBensDonuts · 24/05/2024 14:28

It is the fate of Great Britain. Tbh it is the fate of Europe, so Brexit isn’t really that important in the grand scheme of things

ridiculously ageist and patronising

"He was annoyed because I wouldn't let him have some ham off my sandw."

Well thank heavens he doesn't have access to any nuclear codes because if looks could kill...
We'd better keep a close eye on Larry (and some ham at the ready).

pigsDOfly · 24/05/2024 14:32

I hope you're sleeping with one eye open pointythings.

There's a cat most definitely hatching plans to take over the world.

DunkinBensDonuts · 24/05/2024 14:33

Look at Canada and the radical lefty cities in the USA

tbf radical leftist cities are actually still nice places to live, if you aren’t on the wrong side of town. But American cities reach their peak under right-leaning politicians (eg Guliani and Bloomberg-era NYC)

Best not show him this!

@Brefugee I didn’t mean to be ageist. They were targeted on local news as well in the City Centre. But I’ll get my accidental offensive post removed. Sorry

No, we'll sink below the waves from the weight of all the immigrants that Starmer wants to give amnesty to.

Those of us that live on the coast are already painting and re-caulking the lifeboats 😮

Interesting first post OP.
Also great to see you think things will improve so quickly: we passed dystopian hellscape some time ago.

C0untBinFace · 24/05/2024 14:39
