The UK. What a totally fucked up country. Just wait until it goes into financial depression. And that's not far off.

Andrew, the US legal system politicians are coming for you. The rich and powerful that are hiding in the shadows that you were involved with will never let you tell who they are.... Watch your back!!!!!

The big UK welfare reform changes are about to start, not because it is the correct thing to do seeing as there are so many claiming to be unfit to work, but because there are so many people taking the Piss and are too lazy to work. BUT..... the biggest factor is, the UK is financially bust. It's all gone. Time to buy an alarm clock, the good days are fast closing for thr tired hands.

It seems to me that the Labour party realizes they are to be annihilated at the next general election in the UK, (if they can survive that long). They are trying their very best to destroy the finaccess of the country so as to hand over a broken country to the next party that looks like the REFORM PARTY.

Price of tin of Corned Beef in Tesco has increased rapidly over last year. A few months ago the cheapest brand 340g tin was £3.10 , today (14/10/25) it's £3.70 , a 19% increase. Price of almost everything is increasing, and most items by much more than the headline inflation figure of 3 or 4%
For people in well paid jobs whose wages increase along with inflation they can manage. But if you only have the state pension (which is almost the lowest in Europe anyway) to exist on, well it is near impossible to exist, let alone have any life.

Nice enough, polite except when drunk or a problem arises (and most lose the politeness pretty quickly and their heads with it), drink too much all the time to deal with the sense of loneliness people talk about in this thread. It is very sad that as foreigners go, even when we have lived here for decades, most of us cannot say we have a friend from England. The only time I have made friends is when we had a common interest in (like childcare share, baby-sitting and so). When that interest is over, there is hardly anything left. English people move based on fulfilling their needs, take happily from others and generally give very little back. You matter as far as you provide for something they want or need. Once that is over you are nothing, nobody. You are dispensable. No sense of friendship.
In my experience of having lived in 3 different countries, they make the worse, low-quality, uncommitted, unloyal friends of all. They are often too complicated and come up with an array of excuses to not mingle, help, etc. (the very best friend they haven't seen for years - but never talked to you about... because it doesn't even exist!; the family visit and the very tight deadline are some of their favourite excuses - but you know they are lying most of the time). I once asked a "friend" a favour as I had to rush off to hospital, and they came out with the "tight deadline" lie. I knew they were lying. At least in this occasion they had the decency to confess to me a few days later that they were lying.
I shudder to think how they are told this behaviour when they are kids within the privacy of the family ("if abc asks you for a favour, just lie and here are your options: the deadline thingy, the very best friend and so on"). Their selfishness is unique and high contrast with how much they are always ready to take from others, as they did during empire.
It it weren't for family ties, I would have left a long time ago. I miss my uncomplicated, straight-forward friends from my home country. Wanna go out for a bit? Yes or no, that's it. With English people is a whole, exhausting, debilitating palavva and I have had enough and given up. I resent the dishonesty and the eternal drama, the selfishness, the lack of seriousness, the hardly ever arriving in time, the frequent cancelling or, worse, the not even turning up and not even telling you. Never ever in my life I have met people so disrespectful to others.
WORSE FRIENDS EVER, indeed, most don't qualify for the word "Friend".
But of course, they will turn it around to make themselves feel good.
Examples: They don't turn up in time to do something agreed by a group of people? They will say something like "Oh, you haven't left me any work". It's brilliant, their capacity to let others down and still blame you for it. It was your fault! You didn't leave them any work to do! Unbearable dishonesty.
I understood long ago and joined the 100,000 foreigners who've given up and just accept things as they are. I take the smile in the street together with the neighbour who would never say hello even after 10 years, the chat at the corner shop together with those who would never greet you in the street althogh you've been working with them for years organising, discussing, putting projects together and so on... but look down or just stare blankly at you when they see you in the streets.
Oh well, let's enjoy their great music, the occasional fish&chips too and rid with it! Nothing much we foreigners can do to change an emotionally stunt nation to scared to open up and delve into the, yes sometimes scary, regions of friendship. It's their tragedy too and probs explain the high levels of suicide in their country.

"Rough sleepers 'turning Norwich Riverside into campsite"
Norwich, UK, so the press keeps telling people, it's a great place to visit and live. What they don't tell is, Drug violence, Mugings, rapes, street attacks, car crimes, anti social events.... need any more.
