UK Political Class : An Historic Failure.

As dreadful reports of anti-immigrant and racist abuse begin to come in, supported by truly shocking videos taken on phones and shown on the social media, it seems right to lambaste the entire political class for its self interest, half truths, broken promises and outright lies which have underpinned the most squalid political campaign ever conducted in the UK in the history of our democracy. The country has been left divided and angry, the political parties have been themselves convulsed and just at the moment when leadership is needed they are too introspective with their own spiteful quarrels to provide it.

They gorge on the politics of Westminster, entirely detached from the people they were elected and are paid to represent, who in turn are left to cope as best they can with an economic model now out of control, which favours the few at the expense of the many. Their promises to re-balance this preposterous asset inflating juggernaut have proved empty, because they are clueless, greedy and actually they do not for the most part care. And when it comes to a measured and coherent approach as to how to navigate Brexit, their inadequacy and ineptitude is total.

Except in Scotland.

Well, there will be consequences.
