It wasn't in London's name...it was in UK's name.

More people live in London than live in Scotland and Wales combined. Some of the poorest people in the country live in London, as well as some of the richest. It would be hard to lump them all together and make out they're all out of touch.

The liberal left is not the majority. The hard-working, commuting into the city every day, trying to get on with their life is the norm. Just like in any other big city. The liberals are there for our amusement... Good bless 'em.

I think the way the word liberal is used online now is an Americanised use tbh.The Americans always use the terms "liberal and conservative" to describe the political ideologies.I.E the left and right.Whereas we just say "Labour and Conservative" or "Left and right"

The guy in the video references a "non-existent pay gap"...? He seems quite a bit out of touch with the UK...

I mean, why blame elitism, the establishment, the political class or those working in the out of control finance sector for anything when you can simply blame everything on gays and vegans? It makes matters much simpler... best to stick with that. |

Calling someone liberal in the UK is a catch all term, liberalism can support economic inequality or be a social justice warrior but the one thing all liberal thinkers value is democracy, individual liberty and civil liberties. A Liberal American political party is not the same thing as individual liberal thinkers, just as our neo-liberal British government is not the same as liberal leaning people... Its an oxymoron.

You seem a bit out of touch with the UK too.
This thread has done very little to prove the title of the vid correct, if anything the thread suggests the opposite so far.

The OTT politically correct ruined it like they ruin so many other things. Most people have a social conscience and care about those in hardship but there is a llmit and the extreme lefties have pushed people over that edge of tolerance.

Well, like feminism, I'm still going to use the word for what it's supposed to mean and say I am both a feminist and more liberal leaning in the truest meanings of those words

The whole thing about 'liberal' becoming a 'dirty' word is just the last ditch effort of what is a slowly dying political philosophy grasping for relevance. Each generation becomes more and more liberal, the conservative mindset will likely die off in the generations to come.
