Current Affairs The Conservative Party

I quite agree with this, and the sad thing is, there is countless evidence to this effect out there in the form of peer-reviewed research. I know because I've written about it a lot myself. It's seldom a narrative that gets wider attention, however. I touched on this in an earlier post about the life sciences sector, but pretty much every sector where we might regard ourselves as a success internationally wants a very liberal immigration system because their lifeblood is talent, but we have seemingly evolved into this bizarre situation where the Tory government actively go out of their way to not only make things harder for our leading industries but often to verbally do them down as somehow anti-British because they represent the other side in so-called culture wars. It's utterly mental.

That CEO is all over the place, we’re ready (having had 6 years to prepare), it’s the fault of Brexit (having had 6 years to prepare) then it turns out the French frontier staff had turned up late and undermanned.…..

Alicante airport had new passport check in lines for the Brits built and ready months before Brexit,but no doubt the Tories would find a way to blame them.

TBF we are probably long past the stage where people in that bracket should be prioritized for important sorts of work and not end up working for the socially useless gig labour firms like Deliveroo, Uber, Gorillaz and so on.

There's a general exodus of staff throughout the NHS and public sector. Skilled roles and semi skilled roles are becoming harder to fill as people look elsewhere due to pay and conditions.

perfectly engineered by the tory cuts in public institutions and services over time. aided and abetted by a media owned by billiomaires who stash their ill gotten gains in in tax havens and persuade the working class people who actually produce the wealth to vote for them. I think that when people realise that they are being taken for a ride and can see through all the lies then the ground will be fertile for civil unrest. The consequences of this don't bear thinking about. Military on the streets backed up by private militias and directed at the most vociferous opponents ie Scots.Welsh and areas in England like Liverpool. Can't happen? Think again.
