Well, I don’t really mean this as a positive per se, but it’s entirely possible the incoming administration tosses a few crumbs to keep things just simmering (while of course further dismantling everything of any real value). That’s been the playbook for the power brokers for some time. I didn’t mean there was some possibility there’d be any actual good. The incoming folks are essentially the most predatory version of that class of people, I’m under no illusions.
Edit to add: I tentatively reject the idea that your country is not far behind, respectfully. That’s my point. I am fairly sure the differences are bigger than you realize.
Ha, you’re right, and our countries are of course more closely linked than maybe I realize. Hope it didn’t sound like I was diminishing your struggles. Cheers and best wishes!
i think in a lot of ways our legacy as a british colony has never really eroded. our countries have been consistently aligned for a long time for better and for mostly worse for both countries
Your incoming administration won’t do a thing for your average person. If it’s any consolation we Brits aren’t far behind.

Appreciated. Whatever you do the U.K. likes to copy though. I suppose it’s like karma for introducing Thatcher and Reagan.

You had a point because although incredibly similar, there are differences. I should have said I was speaking relatively.
What a pleasant exchange _

Slight correction the incoming administration is likely to do quite a bit for the average person.
All of it’s going to be bad, but they’re gonna do quite a bit.
Edit: Or one way to look at it is that they’re going to do a lot to the average person not for the average person.
True that.
