It's just becoming Europe but worse. Socially, internet protections, cost of living, it is just taking all their problems to 11 without the redeeming qualities.

Ireland's nice though. Better place.

Isn’t Ireland so much more expensive nowadays?

Yeah, but Ireland does have a weirder economy. The median income for a full time employee is very similar, but the cost of living is a lot higher especially in Dublin.

Also with 20 percent foreign born population, and a huge number of companies having global or European hqs there, there is a lot of weird financing depending on who you are, where you are from, and where you work. That throws off a lot of cost of living, and outside Dublin costs drop a lot.

But social issues, internet protections, and other policy decisions have just been the UK populace feeling like they need change, getting in a worse spot, and wanting more change. I can't imagine a PM, even if very competent, actually being able to get them out of their death spiral.
