I'm not surprised by th election
 

Europe has been taking a right turn for a few years now. And I know British people hate to admit it but you are Europeans. Europe is always about 10 years behind America, we had a major surge on the right a decade ago with bush, this is just so predictable. It also reminds me of when bush won against gore , every one blamed Ralph Nader of the Green Party for stealing votes from the democrats, just like people are now blaming SNP stealing votes from labour

Yes, what we deplore about America we tend to adopt a few years later

It's really depressing as an american to see. You should be learning from our mistakes. Not repeating them

I totally agree, it's the age of individualism.

I have no problem with individualism, it's elitism that I despise

Individualism is elitism in people without the money or ancestry to justify it.
