What is United Kingdom?
1.
The only place on earth that securely ties itself to a chair and then cordially invites all the scumbags of the world to come and rob it of its own riches and benefits, even passing laws to help them to do so and prevent its own indigenous population from doing anything about it. This has come to such a head that the people with any money /common sense are gradually (upon retirement or earlier)moving away to such places as France, Spain, Portugal to escape the madness. Eventually the indigenous population will dwindle to such a degree that there will be too few people contributing into the system to support the ever increasing number of scumbags taking out of the system.
I'm moving awaqy from the United Kingdom to escape from the ever increasing number of scumbags the country seems hellbent on importing.

We live in a United Kingdom thats no longer united. We are muddled." -Jeremy Clarkson

The nation that once ruled half the globe (British Empire). Was known to treat it's colonies as if they were shite at times (sent their youth to die in two world wars and Boer War) and very well in others. (Defence, trade) wiped it's colonies noses, asses, and so on. Has a long history of bad treatment of the Irish over a period of 800 years. Should be proud of teaching Canada and other dominions all of their traditions such as democracy, free speech, and should also be ashamed of their degrading treatment of the Irish.
The United Kingdom is a paradox, it has been a role model, and a human rights abuser, where do it's dominions get some of their bad habits from?
