    I think this is positive, as long as it doesn’t threaten the Union. Devolution could help de-londonise the UK. We need to focus more on other parts of the nation, especially the north. As for the democracy argument… we could always get rid of that awful undemocratic first-past-the-post system we’ve got and actually have PM elections.

    British man doing some history revisionism on his own country dark past. The discrimination against Catholics in Ireland by the English traces back hundreds of years to the penal laws. Both north and south Catholics were second class citizens. Period, any attempt to undermine that by suggesting it to be perceived, is absurd on all accounts by any reputable historian. Irish Catholics in the north faced job discrimination , housing discrimination, denial of voting rights by having gerrymandered elections so and so including going as far as having the Irish national flag criminalized. It was state oppression at its finest. and the civil rights marches getting beaten off the streets on multiple occasions by the state militia the RUC was a prime example of that. We got 18 and Mountbatten, TAL32.

    All monopolies should be a State owned , no profit/no loss Firm . Competition improves the quality of a product ( Cars, Tv’s, Trucks, Cycles, food brands etc . A natural resource , with zero competition will decay ; as there is no competition and the customer has nowhere else to go . The French apparently call the UK ‘ shit island “ due to the raw sewage floating in the North Sea and English Channel .

    Having spent many years working in the uk public sector i can say that the national civil service is almost completely useless and incompetent in almost every sector. They make decisions by spreadsheets have no connection to outcomes and make every decision to give themselves more power. The fact is almost all the bureaucratic waste is in the centre. Not to say local government does not have problems but at least they are more connected to the issues they deal with.

    Not exactly, at that time the UK state sector was facing a demographic state pensions catastrophe due to increased life expectation, well up from the previous ‘three score and ten’. These changes provided a sustainable State sector for future generations whilst paying off the national debt in the decade following Thatcher’s departure.

    Thank you for this. It helped me realise what on earth the Mayoral election in my local area (East Midlands/Nottinghamshire and Derbyshire) were about. I still voted in it, but I assumed it was just a ceremonial role. Your video explained that it was not, and was actually quite important. I'll go and show this video to my family members who didn't vote because they too didn't understand the position, so they can vote as well next time.

    I am really concerned about the Good Friday agreement. And I hail the Scottish for their resillience and patience. I am not sure whether the Brexiteers had factored in the Scottish independence sentiment and the Good Friday agreement. Most likely, not as they were more concerned about the dangers of the "Polish plumbers". I feel so sorry for the British youth who were semi-imprisoned on an island at the footsteps of Europe not enjoying many personal benefits of the EU that their grannies and parents had freely enjoyed between 1973 and 2022. So selfish, so heartless. I won't be surprised a bit if Scotland moves away and Ireland is reunited and "Kingdom / Queendom of England & Wales" (KEW, sounds nice) which might as well be a better prospects for future generations of the British youth. =/
