Mick Lynch Is The Revolutionary That Britain So Badly Needs
Unionism isn’t dead after all.
The beginnings of something special is brewing in the United Kingdom.
After having endured twelve years of destructive cuts to our public services, the working man and woman seem to have had enough and are making their voices heard.
In one of my articles titled The Poorest in Society aren’t worth saving, I wrote extensively about the degree to which people’s lives have been blighted by the Tories in Power. I gave the example of the bedroom tax, which was initiated by George Osborne in 2015, which was designed to strip working class people of any meaningful wealth that they may have accumulated over time.
In the same write up, I pointed to the insulting 1% pay rise that was given to the nurses who put their lives on the line to save millions of folks during the pandemic.
In another post titled Hunger Games In Brexit Britain, I detailed how hard Brexit is playing out on a daily basis with empty supermarket shelves, rising food costs and a precipitous fall in living standards. Doubtless the war in Ukraine has played a part in our current travails, but there can be no getting away from the outsized role that Britain’s economic isolation is playing in this current mess.
