    I thought the British were already far left, now they are even farther left😂. Thank god for 1776.
  • This is the greatest danger our country and our people have been in for over 80 years
  • @joeblow229

    Damn will there even be an England?
  • @tomservo5607
    Oh boy, is England going to change all right…for the worst.
  • Bye bye, Britain. You’ll wish you had a second amendment soon…
  • Yes people did vote for change, that is why Reform got so many votes. If it wasn't for our First Past the Post electoral system we would have actually got change.
  • Yes you are right. People always vote to change the lifestyle of their leaders only.
  • By change you mean more of the same. Unmitigated illegal immigration and 1984 speech laws
  • @oiulti6900
    They voted for change… sadly there was not much change to vote for 😞- Tories and Labours are the same.
  • @sundager8735

  • Careful with that word "change" America had a pretty famous bullsheeter get us with that one
  • @hhol.m
