The real irony that still doesn't seem to be widely understood in "those circles", is that Brexit only made it harder for people from the EU to live and work in Britain. The type of immigrants they don't really mind "for some reason". But we have a declining population and need migration... so decreased EU movement of workers = increased immigration "from the places they're not so keen on".
And now they're kicking off lol.
Dum-dumdum-dum-dummm.
Also it's not just because Labour are showing less indication of acting than Tories - I reckon these people are hopping mad because they got themselves all excited about Farage and Reform. I said at the time, the social media hype and landscape had people hilariously believing that Reform would be the main opposition
or might even get into power and they were super stoked about that. And then they got 5 seats. No matter how much the people who understand how UK elections work want to paint that as "actually a great success" for Farage, simple fact is, these mobs and hordes expected more. A lot more. So now they're feeling dejected and lashing out. Silly children.
