The desire to return Britain to some fantasy version of the country between 1940-1959 that never really existed.
Spirit of the Blitz, Rule Britannia etc.

The tories have tapped in to the tough guy ‘I can look after myself’ mentality. If you don’t like it then you’re a pansy who just can’t handle it. Look at me, I don’t care, why are you crying about it? It’s a race to the bottom of who can put up with the most crap. The survival of the fittest.
Just look at how so many discussions of social media turn in to this stupid baiting.
Is this The End for English Lit degrees?

I think this is a very good point :
The language 'mickey mouse degree' utterly stinks of gaslighting as well.
Getting rid of degrees that study critical analysis of text and sources is exactly the opposite of what should be happening.

All the buffoons in politics graduated with degrees in politics, philosophy and economics, and look where that's got us.
