• There seems no end to the various ways brexit is poisoning the UK and reducing it to a soulless, impoverished, embittered, unwelcoming husk.

    The very foreigners they wish to keep are leaving because they are made to feel unwelcome and because they can. The ones they want rid of will just go underground. Meanwhile, however much they beef up the border security, everyone knows there’s an open back door in Northern Ireland. A complete fiasco in every respect.

    It goes well beyond a single country, party and politics I believe. It's the rise of tribalism, racism, religious intolerance, the ignorance of the flat-earthers, feces-slingers, anti vaxxers, conspiracy theorists loudmouths who seem to be taking over a bit everywhere. Perhaps, it is the fact that I've been a foreigner, in different countries, for most of my life but it is disheartening.

    I wish you were wrong. Sad to admit, you're right.
