BRITISH REALISM

We look so fucking gullible compared to the Brits. So willing to swallow the GOoPer line.

Look at this:

Tories open nine-point lead as Labour drops to 19-year low

Read down to the poll.

The results are astounding.

72%, including 65% of Labour voters, think government policy has made Britain more of a target for terrorists. Only 1% of voters believe the government's foreign policy has made Britain safer, a devastating finding given that action in Iraq and Afghanistan has been justified in part to defeat Islamist terrorism.

Here, we go along and let them run things and never question the fundamentals.

Sad, but true.
