@redrumlisa.bsky.social Case studies of Corby and Mansfield - with serious questions for policy makers in successive governments.

Working-class people are sick of being called ignorant or racist because of their valid concerns. The EU referendum has given them a chance to have their say

As a Brit when I go to the USA I like to flick channels between MSNBC & Fox to see how mental & tribal the US is. I'm over here on this platform watching. Yep the USA is mental & Tribal. You know not engaging with each other & refusing to acknowledge a different view isn' is why you've got Trump.

I'm trying people over here but apart from people moaning about Trump & photos of different types of mushrooms (not sure what the correlation is) Its a bit meh - I'll keep trying though. Its time we sat in the same rooms & had proper debates.

Ha ha finally remembered my password. So I'll be giving Blusky a go. I'll start as I mean to go on over here. Inflation figures by our Government are bollocks. Rents up by 10% Energy 11% & bus fares 50%. Its still grim for the British working class.
