We just have some truly awful political leaders. Gone are the days of listening to the public mood and shifting your message to meet it. It's become, this is my authentic self, if you don't like it, then vote for someone else. Hmm only 18% in the polls, I wonder why

Also quite sick of the phrase "kowtow" only being used in a Chinese context, surely in reality that's our relationship with the US, but it's the image of being potentially subservient to an Asian power is portrayed as being extra humiliating. The undertones, i feel media should address that one day

Many of us wouldn't be anywheres if we could actually afford to live where we grew up. If my small rural village has no graduate jobs, then yes I'll need to go anywhere else
