Sometimes it feels like the whole world is going mental.
I really hope the UK doesn't follow down the road the US has chosen... because this place is getting outright scary. I can't believe Reform is gaining substantial traction over there... very sad.
I’m genuinely scared for all Americans and ex-pats like yourself and we all know what happened in the 1930s, I despise the right-wing movement, it’s as ugly a thing I’ve ever seen and terrified of the world our grandchildren will inhabit. Aurelia, the oldest, is a very kind girl, she hates those who are mean to others and I hope she stays that way into adulthood but will have to learn how to be strong, to defend herself because I worry she might be alone in her ways versus a world of greedy, me-first people.
Or… will her generation turn that on its head? When you think about it the right-wing contingent are mainly middle aged and up. I think they are mostly angry people who believe aggression and one upmanship are the way to go.
I don’t buy that. I’m a soft middle aged lefty!!
Hopefully Reform will fail to make much traction when the next election comes around.
If they get in I’m moving my entire family to Scotland or Ireland!!
