Stockton On Tees

It’s called “levelling up” - Tories turning the whole country into a shithole.

Leave no city or region behind…
Stockton on Tees was in decline from the seventies. ICI employed around 16’000 folk locally at one time. I know you like to blame the Tories for everything but successive Governments have left it to rot over a long period of time with no real investment.

Maybe you ought to leave if you hold this country in such low regard, record immigration would suggest that not everyone agrees with you

With all these Engineers, Rockets Scientists and Computer Programmers coming in the economy should be flying.

Yeah, because criticising a few things on here means you hold it in such low regard.

We deserve better, but perhaps some are happy with the shit they’re served up.
 
It didn't help when Labour chose to put North London Intelligencia into the north east as safe seat winners with an agenda.

Decades of governments shit on people and places. But I guess the years of when the fake socialists are in power, don't count. It only registers when the fake conservatives are the ones breaking promises.

It's a one-eyed Mystery, Hackney thing.

Keep doffing your cap to your supposed Tory betters.
 
So have we decided then...if you're critical of the UK in anyway, you must leave...?
Are we all leaving then?

It seems logical that if you find so much of our country contrary to your beliefs and opinions that living elsewhere is a sensible course of action.

I believe it's possible to buy a cheap dinghy on the south coast to begin your escape.

Blimey, I hope it's easy to access this forum from overseas, otherwise it's going to get terribly quiet on here if that logic is followed

Crap logic.

So if you're critical & can afford to leave, then you should.
But if you can't afford to leave, then you shouldn't be critical at all.

The Tories must love you & you ilk. Whatever happened to making things better, rather than letting a few call the shots in their favour?

Try reading the post again. Without your anti Tory glasses on.

You cannot disconnect the way the country has been run into the ground over the last 13 years without crediting the Tories with their hand in this.

So, the specs need to stay on & you should put yours on too - otherwise you’ll never accept the shitshow they’ve created.

Selfishness & division - none of us can possibly be happy with that.
 
I'm not interested in political parties in all this.
The logic was that unless you love everything about this country, you should leave.
It's not just politics that is broken...but I still love this small island of ours.

Your logic, not mine.
Mistry seems to be uncomfortable with most aspects of life in the UK, he blames it almost entirely on the Tory government. I believe that when we inevitably get a change of political party at the helm he will be equally disappointed because things will never be the way he'd like them to be, hence my logic is don't stay here and be miserable.

I too love this small island of ours but some of the changes I see I worry about.
