You may have noticed that I haven’t said anything on here about politics for a while. That was deliberate: I’ve been avoiding the issue. Politics in this country has become too fucked up for me to comment; I’m getting too angry about it. On the one hand, we have a government trying to reintroduce a draconian system of streamed education which reinforces class devision and dooms kids as second class citizens based on an essentially rigged test. On the other hand, we had to watch as a bunch of semi-nazi stains on humanity, calling itself a political party, congratulated itself for completely fucking this country by ‘winning’ the referendum. They only did so through lies. I wanted to hit every xenophobic piece of shit in that room as they grinned their brainless grins, and welcomed their new leader. Anyone capable of coherent, independent thought knows this country is fucked because of them! And meanwhile, where is Labour? Where are the voices pointing out the stupidity of it all, calling for a second referendum on the grounds that the first was won through lies? Nowhere! Nowhere to be seen. There is nobody currently standing up to these bullies and xenophobes. It gets me so angry that I start yelling at the tv whenever it comes on; so angry, in fact, that I better just avoid politics altogether.
