Are we happy with the general election result?

ahh i bet alot of you who know me assume id be mad about it, im not, i could see labour would win so accepted it before as the reality. no need to reject reality.

but i dont see much change... as corbyn himself said the labour manifesto was tiny and it mostly mirrored the tory one offering little difference. one of the only differences that i liked was the nationalised energy company they plan to make, which im holding my hopes out for that it lowers energy costs and forces the private companies to lower theirs to compete.

all the rest of the policies are just the same as tory policies other than that.... aside from the destroying green belt protection laws in order to spam more housing estates.... that is one i personally dont like... and lefties once would have hated that too, i guess im more traditional left that modern day lefties are lol

The irony of a party obsessed with environmental issues destroying the environment. The self contradictory nature of the left never ceases to amaze me. 

As for the new energy company, I fear it will be so called "green" energy so will probably raise our bills rather than reduce them. Again I hope Im wrong 

We see the same thing happening in my native Ireland too - in the last 23 years of my living in the U.K., my home village in Rural Ireland has become ever more built up less than 50 miles from Dublin as in recent years the Irish government has gone totally woke leftist and even marxist for its globalist masters - when I grew up in the 70’s and 80’s we had at least 5 working farms on the Main Street and now it’s full of motorways, houses and factories within 5 miles of the village, the motorway has worsened the traffic congestion through the village when it used to be open fields and now its right on the commuter belt into Dublin with a promised (re-opened) rail line from the nearest town into Dublin - we have both a Lidl and an Aldi in our village on top of others less than 12 miles away and the existing supermarket is struggling - yet they still want to take away our bank and our post office away from us without even giving us improved broadband services, the only good thing being good mobile coverage - although the police station was rebuilt beside the courthouse, it’s nearly always unoccupied and connected via the “green man” intercom radio to other stations in the area
