We need to focus the positives.
Chin up none of this looking back on what might have been. Lets make the best of it. Full steam ahead with courage and conviction and lots of positives.

Shome mishtake shurely "lots of palliatives"?Chin up none of this looking back on what might have been. Lets make the best of it. Full steam ahead with courage and conviction and lots of positives.
I know, think how lucky we were. We could have ended up with Corbyn!

We could have, but we ended up with a lying incompetent buffoon of a puppet and an alt-right un-elected bureaucrat pulling the strings and driving us towards the beaut of wild capitalism and little (wellfare) state... So much for the electorate taking back control.
And all 'cause of the "we won so we must have it regardless fearmongering turning reality" mindlessness.
A moderate centrist with only slightly left leaning policies Yay really dodged a bullet there.
Mmmm. The 'unelecteds' seem to be a constant theme, whichever side you're on. We've just got a different lot now, as well as a good few of the same lot. As to welfare state, I guess you're discounting the unprecedentally vast sums that the greedy, grabbing alt/right govt has been doling out to businesses and individuals (furlough) in the last 6 months?
Tuga, our system of democracy might be imperfect, but you can be absolutely certain that a competent opposition will in due course reform, and that the electorate will indeed boot the current lot out of office at the next election unless they start to bring in results for the people who lent them their vote last time round.

Moderate centrist my ^*!@.
How did I know you'd use Covid as an excuse...
I don't see how "a competent opposition will in due course reform" the damages of a "gerrit dun" Government and of BrExit.
DumBo Jo didn't have an alternative did he?
He did try to delay lockdown and look where it's got us. My wife is an NHS consultant by the way, getting ready for the Second Wave.
So imperfect it’s not a functioning democracy & we all know that’s the whole point of wheeling out & positioning people like BoJo at this juncture; you know it, I know it, so why not dispense with this “imperfect democracy” bullshit & just come clean & admit that you & your kind don’t give a **** about it, you just want a 1,000 year Tory reich — whatever it takes.
Only from your position on the spectrum, which is a long way east of his...
Far from being absolutely certain, I consider this scenario somewhat unlikely, on current trends.Tuga, our system of democracy might be imperfect, but you can be absolutely certain that a competent opposition will in due course reform, and that the electorate will indeed boot the current lot out of office at the next election unless they start to bring in results for the people who lent them their vote last time round.
