    Me, an American, reading up on the UK:

    Hey, little buddy, how are neoliberal policies and privatization going?

    Oh, yeah, sounds about right.

      sounds very consescending for no reason. the people of the uk have had the wool pulled over their eyes as much as the next country. they’re not your enemy

        No, they’re not the enemy. Just damn sad that their politicians were somehow able to point at the train wreck that is the US and convince their citizens that that’s what they should want. It seems like it should have been a predictable outcome for anyone armed with the ability to do a Google search.
