Americans don't commit terrorism mate. and the Irish stopped a long time ago, funnily enough after we stepped in and tried to help thst which is what Trump has said he wants to do.

If by 'we' you mean that the British stepped in and tried to help then your understanding of the conflict in NI is significantly less well developed than your DIY capabilities.
 
I agree mostly with this. I was active in local politics for twenty years and most people seem to vote for a party regardless of what is happening locally, hence Bootle, (where I was active), still votes in a labour MP despite its massive decline over the last twenty years.
True could say that about the most if the north end, look at Kirkdale, I was brought up there, just be abandoned, most people there don't even know there councillor but vote labour, have done for decades all my life anyway but what have they done for them even when in power?
That's part of the reason we have a vacuum in the political landscape at the moment people are cynical, and rightly so in my eyes.

Only issue with that is it then legitimises a system that has kept a majority working and paying for the ecesses and whims of few.

There has to be a way, method or means to take control of a democratic process, accepting that the existing one remains in play. There has to be greater participation yet the populus is disinterested and disengaged, the two showboats of Brexit and Trump spunket took advantage of that disenfranchised element for their own ends, not as a challenge to the existing order, but to accelerate their aims as it had been shuffling rightwards already.

The problem (over here as well as over there) is the party system, which is the route by which bad policy, bad people and bad money are getting into politics and causing so much misery for so many.

Break that and there is no need to for an alternate power structure that could take over in the event of bad people winning power; it would be almost impossible for them to get in.
 
America and Britain are the world's biggest terrorists ever.

There is a fantastic quote from a Vietnamese minister in one of the Chris Mullin diaries, who when asked why his country didn't go down the UN route to solve problems said "Because we have been invaded by four of the five members of the Security Council".
