It's not that bad...as long as you don't drive, don't turn on your heating, only bathe once a week, don't use social media, stay out of the town centres when it's busy in case you get arrested for walking by a protest, never make a joke about anything even remotely sensitive, spend the vast majority of your life working just to survive. I mean, apart from that, it's fine.
I’ve been living in London for 14 years now and I can confirm everything in this video is correct and not overexaggerated. 57% of my yearly earning goes to taxes. The healthcare is terrible, policing is terrible and the roads are full of potholes and cracks. This country is falling down.
Why repair the roads when they do not want you to not travel anywhere, but enjoy taking your money, strange how they do not actually need it, they take it to keep people poor. NHS, well they want you deed, the jabs proved that.
@MrEdrftgyuji yeah that's just an extreme overstatement of our situation in the UK. This is a CCP tactic, not UK gov, albeit the UK gov does have it's own issues. Edit: Don't me a shill for anyone. I believe in human rights, democracy, liberty, rights to protests, but all of these protests are coming from people purely fighting on the emotional wave of online propaganda, and most times the "information" comes from the authoritarian governments these people claim to be fighting against. Our government has issues, however, the fundamentals are there for ANYONE to work with, and have a voice, and cause change. If you don't know enough yet, or don't have the patience to achieve through bureaucracy and policies, please consider those options, and the benefits of going through such routes. Don't you DARE compare me to brain dead propaganda eating shills. The types on ANY side. Regardless of belief, logic over all.
The people of the U.K.: "Can we do something about all the stabbings, especially children being stabbed?" UKGovt: "Sure, we'll arrest people commenting about it online and noticing there is a problem"
@@seadkolasinac7220 True for countries like Serbia, Belarus, Ukraine (another words non EU ones). But compared to developed ones and only sometimes called "eastern" like Poland, Czechia, Slovenia the living standard gap is very small and in some aspects much higher than in UK.

@@jaspervn4722unlikely, I think the majority of people being arrested for what they said on facebook is for saying they want to kill immigrants, not juat being racist. There are some weird cases like the person who was arrested for calling a police horse gay but those are the cases in which articles get written because they are unusual and a violation of free speech.
I live in the uk and my mum works in the nhs, she gets paid barely anything and she is in agony because of the hard work she does. the cost of living has caused her to have to work overtime, she is sleep deprived all the time because she has to do overtime. im genuinely scared for my future if the government doesn't change
And yet he complains when he's 21 drives a sports car and makes more money then over 85% of the entire UK population. The government only just changed I'm not saying I trust this labour government but I'll give them a chance they have a lot of shit to fix from the last government, the Tories are the main reason we are so fucked right now though dude. They have always been a party for the wealthy and loan behold the wealthy have tripled their wealth in the 14 years they were in power well we got screwed. Judging From your comment I'm guessing you're young, focus on getting a trade or your education into a field that will actually pay and you'll be fine but if you fuck around you'll have a hard time honestly.
It's baffling how much tax money is spent on the NHS yet people like your mother see none of it. Every budget you hear they're giving hundreds of millions more to the health service, yet nurses can barely survive, junior doctors go on strike. Where's the money going? And if you ever criticise the fact that it's a bloated mess, you have loads of people telling you how it's the best thing in the world. Madness.
@@adamreynolds2372 @adamreynolds2372 well we only have the Tories to thank for the state of the NHS, the stagnation of wages and lack of housing they were running the country for the past 14 years up until the financial crash caused by the bankers back in I think it was 09' if I'm remembering correctly the NHS was rated the No.1 health care system in the world. Large contracts were sold off to off shore companies with share holders so the money is not being used how it's supposed to. The Tories have always been a party for the wealthy upper classes that why the wealthiest in the country have tripled their wealth well the working classes are now struggling. The last few years of labour leading up to the Tories taking power were not much better to be honest. I'm not very trusting of this labour government either but I'll give them a chance to fix the mess the Tories put us in. But it's going to be at least 6 years before we even start to see the turn around because it's such a mess especially with the knock on effects of COVID and Brexit.
@@adamreynolds2372they ‘overpay’ on everything. Printers that are £300 they’ll pay £1200, pens that are £1 they’ll pay £10. It’s corrupt as fuck. Also super high salaries for diversity officers, HR managers etc
I am 35 years old and left the UK around 8 years ago. I moved to New Zealand and managed to get a permanent residency visa, so I can come-and-go as I wish. I am a fully qualified and experienced brewer/winemaker. I have very recently come back to see my parents and work a vintage while over here. ... I was considering staying but having seen what this place has become while I have been away that is not happening. I will book a flight home after the vintage is done, spend Christmas with my parents since I've come all this way. After that, in the new year... I'm off again back to NZ to get my old life back. This country has fallen, and no government can fix it. If you are young and able it is time to be brave and venture out into the world.
The UK isn't a country and it's England that's screwed. Scotland and Wales have it much better off because they have competent governments. Shame they aren't independent though and get dragged down by England and its stupidity.
You completely glossed over public transport. If you think you can just get a train instead of driving everywhere, think again. A 2 hour train ride will coast you at least £100 and has a 50% chance of making it to your destination without getting cancelled. It’s genuinely cheaper to fly abroad than it is to travel within the country
And also a car will actually get you there WHEN you need to be there and not cause you to waste hours every day waiting around because they don't line up to your own schedule.
"Pollution is awful and so we will charge those who use carbon-heavy modes of transport. Climate change is something we must all tackle together. Also a train now costs £182 pounds and a flight will be £32 to the same destination, if you don't go by train then you're a fucking monster"
It’s sad to see how rapidly the UK is hurtling toward being a dystopian nightmare. I saw a video of someone’s door being sawed in half with a chainsaw over some facebook posts, while the worst kind of criminals are being released and it broke my heart to see how backwards the UK has become, as an American, I empathize and hope you guys can turn this thing around...
It was originally titled "1948" based on the growth of government control during the war but the publisher thought that title would be too frightening.
The most important thing Orwell (Blair) said was "DON'T LET IT HAPPEN" Guess what! we let it happen. No-one listened. Bed has been made, We now sleep in it.

I'm so tired of seeing this "there will be flying cars in the future", and there is already flying cars, Which are called eVTOL which stands for electric vertical take-off and landing. And theres more cars that can fly like the Urban Aeronautics CityHawk Air Taxi, XPeng X2, ASKA A5 Flying Car, AeroMobil AM NEXT, Zapata Airscooter, EHang AAV, Bayanat Xturismo Hoverbike, Samson Sky Switchblade, Archer Midnight, Renault Air4 Concept, Airbus Vahana, Volocopter, Moog SureFly, Etc. This flying cars joke is pretty overused.
@@Lusterid They're not the actual flying cars we should have they are just helicopters that no one even owns. Where are the hover cars and hover boards? Not cars with a propeller that you can't really drive.
@@AlexParkYT They still are flying cars, the goal of "flying cars" was for it to flys. Furthermore a car is classified as a "a vehicle that has wheels, carries a small number of passengers, and is moved by an engine or a motor" a car like that is the Alef Debuts Model, another is the ASKA A5.
this is the realest video ive seen about the current UK situation so far I desperately want to get out of this shit hole its just not worth living here
BT emailed me saying my business bill was going up 7% because of inflation. They put it up 14%. In 1 year. Its obvious at this point its just rampant corporate price gouging.
Mate of mine asked local council to fill a pothole on his road. 6 months later it was filled with gravel and the annual road tax went up by £40. On behalf of my mate, I apologise.
That's not how road tax is supposed to work, actually. The more fixing it needs, the higher the road tax cost should be, then once the road is fixed, the tax should go down to minimum as there won't be any need for that much money once they fully fix the roads... the increase makes absolutely no fking sense. It's obvious extortion.
Well your local council does not benefit from the road tax, in most cases it is the national government that collects it and keeps it… local roads are maintained through council tax… which is also the tax that is supposed to pay for everything that your local council does… 😅
Just my 2 cents on the car insurance scam situation, as a Canadian living in ex-commonwealth (same insurance situation: govt enforced, rising 8% in cost this year alone). The insurance situation is slightly worse than you're letting on. The insurance companies also use rising crime and car theft as justification for raising rates. Who can stop theft and rising crime? The govt and nobody else (from a legal perspective). And what are the police doing? We had a police commissioner order the public to leave their car keys by the door to ease theft and reduce potential harm when robbers take their car. In some cases, they recommended leaving the door unlocked at night. In another instance, a private citizen tracked down the stolen car and called the cops - they refused to come to help them remove it from a port shipping container. Pictures included in the article too! The police also failed to stop thieves from re-vinning the car after it was stolen, even though this requires updates to a system where the old VIN would have been logged as stolen. I could go on and on. We must not defend ourselves or else we will face jailtime. We must allow the criminals to take from us. We must pay our taxes while everything keeps getting worse. Its official. Our leaders have entirely lost their minds! This is a delusional period in time unlike anything ever seen in the west before. Half the people realize it and are trying to leave, but its really the other half that concern me: the mass of people in total denial about any problem whatsoever (lost friends that are like this) or alternatively who ENJOY this.
Nah bro even reading this makes me feel like I'm in a dream. It almost feels like white people are so good at NOT creating problems that they're now deliberately trying to create problems one way or another. And they wonder why people all around Europe are chanting "Auslander Raus".
I'm starting to think that our leaders haven't just lost their minds. The system isn't broken, and it can't be fixed; it's working exactly as intended.
Totally relate. Feels rehearsed and is occurring here in New Zealand also. My friends grew tired of me sounding the alarm so now I just keep quiet and am waiting for them to wake up. Worldwide governments creating internal crisis between it’s people to probably justify bringing in AI police force down the line.

12:23 i've never actually noticed how much seeing a car that ISN'T the same flipping black/white/grey/dark blue ford fiesta makes me happy. like the uk's surroundings and atmosphere is actually THAT boring and grey that seeing a yellow car immediately makes my day better.
I've said that myself, I'm the owner of a grey car, only because it was the best deal I could get road tax and insurance wise, but the amount of car colours cast into history is abomonable. Everything is black, silver or white withe ocassional dark red or blue. I love spotting the ocassional fiesta in the lime green or the abominable bright pink fiat 500, just for the purpose of seeing some colour on the streets.
I saw a boring vintage car from the 60s once. Had to photograph it for posterity, because 60s boring is way more classy and interesting than all the boring blobs around today. Even the colour, 'baby puke brown', was fantastic!
When company profits are the number one priority and politicians are paid off on and for such profits by those companies it’s not a surprise, we have arrived at later late stage capitalism
As a Brazilian, i must say: "First time?" Because UK is becoming just like here, next we are going to hear that crime skyrocketed, nobody is safe and £5,00 now equals $1,00. I mean it, we have the same problems here, taxes rising, importation taxed, yearly car tax increased, fuel taxes rising, every form of tax is rising here, no improvement, no progress at all, UK is following the same path of deterioration.
Left in 2017 and never looked back. There is no future for Brits in Britain without a serious revolution to not only oust the current establishment in it's entirety, but to also reverse all the damage it's done to our homeland over the last century. And I just don't see the average Brit having the capacity to do that. For extra context, there's literally nothing for me to even go back to. I grew up in a beautiful rural village in Devon, shire vibes even into the 2010's. As I grew up, I watched that village slowly whither and die, the couple cafe's close, the green grocer and butcher unable to compete with the Safeways megastore opening a couple miles outside the village. And when I last checked google maps, it's been half bulldozed to build 'cheap' apartment blocks on for invaders seeking to live near Paignton. The Shire has been scoured, and nothing will bring it back. It is a unique kind of hate I harbor for these successive governments in the UK during my life time. But most of all I hate them for that. Never was that close to my direct parents, but until they died, I had my grandparents. And when they passed I had those green and tranquil hills to look back to as the one remaining consistent anchor point to that gilded past. The traitors even desecrated the land itself to make a few more pieces of silver off of.
I’m 21 and I live in the UK. Currently doing driving lessons but the concept of achieving it sounds maddening. I’m a recent plumber apprentice, but I can’t find any local work without a car to travel. I can’t pay for driving lessons without work but I can’t access that work I’ve been training 3 years for. It feels like a endless loop I’m stuck in with no real solution other than to get lucky here and there

Yeah bro, no one fucking likes dipshits like the guy in the video complaining about having to pay huge amounts of money to insure and tax his vehicle. He's a young guy driving an expensive and fast car - statistically almost definitely in the highest risk group of drivers outside of the over 80s. Car tax and insurance is searchable before you buy, and the average car that normal people would buy would not cost nearly as much to tax and insure. He's complaining about not being able to afford being a car enthusiast and expects other drivers and taxpayers to subsidise the cost of his driving which is weak behaviour.
I've never seen your channel before in my life... but you've earned a subscription. It's very heartening to hear normally-apolitical folks actually addressing the many growing problems in this country - especially without picking a side. Cheers.
Great video, very succinct and entertaining. I also appreciate the use of Grand Budapest Hotel's soundtrack. Always nice to be reminded of my favourite film!

Even if public transport was everything you wanted and more, people would still choose to drive. Even if they used public transport for 95% of their journeys there's still that 5% of private transport use, which means you still need insurance.

1) it's not gas, it's petrol. You're in the UK, not the USA. 2) Dont forget that fuel has VAT, and fuel tax. Which, fun fact, is taxed on the after VAT value, not the before value. So you are littereally paying a tax on being taxed.
My dad visited the UK back in the 60s-70s and said that at that time it was, at least in his experience, an amazing country. Safe roads even at midnight, people watching TVs with volumes that were quiet enough to be barely heard by neighbours, efficient public transportation system where if a bus is full no one else is allowed onboard, people that would randomly engage in conversations or just say hi and be nice. Now it's the exact opposite, it's not the UK that my dad visited and knew, it's not a country he feels, and I feel, it's safe to visit.

I take my family to Florida every oct-nov for three weeks to do the theme park runs... Disney, Universal, Busch, Seaworld etc. We stay in a villa which has 4 bedrooms, swimming pool, 2 car driveway and garage. We toyed with the idea of buying one back in 2012 and our detached one was up for $180,000. The conversion rate was $1.60 to the pound, so the villa was around £112,500. That was roughly the same price as our terraced home in the UK with 3 bedrooms, no pool, no garage, no driveway and a footprint of around half the size... We didn't commit.. And now, I curse myself every day for my terrible decision.
You fucked up however: As a American I will say the housing costs in FL state have rose dramatically as more old fools go to Florida alongside the IT nerds from California and New York. Housing insurance + car insurance is the HIGHEST in the country. Good luck even getting insurance in the first place haha! No state income tax but all the other expenses will make up for that. Education and heal are workers are the lowest paid in the country so quality of those services also isn’t great.
@@tony_5156 I wouldn't say I 'fucked up' anything, I simply missed an opportunity. It was 14 years ago, no one could have predicted everything that's happened. Since then we bought a new house that is a much larger, semi detached property with off street parking. I'm happy and so is my family.
The house was bigger because there's 50k m^3 more land in florida than england with 1/3 of the people. Surprisingly, you can build bigger houses where there's more land.
I've said this multiple times, people here have a habit of complaining but doing very little.

Every country in the west is atleast a little cooked. The UK is particularly cooked regarding immigration, probably the worst system in the entire west. It literally encourages criminals to come and exploit the system as well as unskilled immigration to take up low wage jobs creating a whole new poverty class which is both a burden for them and the general citizens of the uk

You forgot about the tax system designed to make all salaries feel the same. Someone making £200k ends up either losing half of it or having to only earn about £80k gross and the rest placed in pension via salary sacrifice. Propping another even more broken system, the pension scam, I mean scheme.

Exactly. We should stop taxing high earners and tax low earners more. That would motivate them to work harder and become high earners, while all the low earners would run away to France or Germany or somewhere like that. Leaving the UK a succesful nation filled with high earners. Common sense.
Reforming the NHS can be done without privatising it. Stop with that same old tired complaint and go inform yourself on how the French reformed their health service without privatising anything. They actually made the market compete (and thus brought prices down) for the public money from the health service.
@@TessaTickle You'll never be able to reform NHS when you have millions of invaders who require healthcare. They pay nothing into the system. It's doomed to fail.
I have my own company that is going under due to people doing the same job illegally for next to nothing. Yet I still have crazy bills every month that I can no longer pay as customers just want the lowest price and don’t care if it’s done legally.

They weren’t here long and they said they can’t believe how bad the uk is and they went back even with the war on because they said an active war zone is still better than England. Our family friends had their German friends come over a few months ago and when they landed at the air port they called our friends in a panic because they thought they landed in the wrong country from being the only people speaking English and how broken and crumbling the uk is.

It's baffling how much tax money is spent on the NHS yet people like your mother see none of it. Every budget you hear they're giving hundreds of millions more to the health service, yet nurses can barely survive, junior doctors go on strike. Where's the money going? And if you ever criticise the fact that it's a bloated mess, you have loads of people telling you how it's the best thing in the world. Madness.
@@adamreynolds2372 @adamreynolds2372 well we only have the Tories to thank for the state of the NHS, the stagnation of wages and lack of housing they were running the country for the past 14 years up until the financial crash caused by the bankers back in I think it was 09' if I'm remembering correctly the NHS was rated the No.1 health care system in the world. Large contracts were sold off to off shore companies with share holders so the money is not being used how it's supposed to. The Tories have always been a party for the wealthy upper classes that why the wealthiest in the country have tripled their wealth well the working classes are now struggling. The last few years of labour leading up to the Tories taking power were not much better to be honest. I'm not very trusting of this labour government either but I'll give them a chance to fix the mess the Tories put us in.

You completely glossed over public transport.
If you think you can just get a train instead of driving everywhere, think again. A 2 hour train ride will coast you at least £100 and has a 50% chance of making it to your destination without getting cancelled. It’s genuinely cheaper to fly abroad than it is to travel within the country
And also a car will actually get you there WHEN you need to be there and not cause you to waste hours every day waiting around because they don't line up to your own schedule.
That's incredibly backward. It seems like all the systems are breaking down
I can vouch for this since I travel every week for 2hr+ on train. The prices are ludicrous.
"Pollution is awful and so we will charge those who use carbon-heavy modes of transport. Climate change is something we must all tackle together. Also a train now costs £182 pounds and a flight will be £32 to the same destination, if you don't go by train then you're a fucking monster"

That's not how road tax is supposed to work, actually. The more fixing it needs, the higher the road tax cost should be, then once the road is fixed, the tax should go down to minimum as there won't be any need for that much money once they fully fix the roads... the increase makes absolutely no fking sense. It's obvious extortion.
Well your local council does not benefit from the road tax, in most cases it is the national government that collects it and keeps it… local roads are maintained through council tax… which is also the tax that is supposed to pay for everything that your local council does… 😅

Just my 2 cents on the car insurance scam situation, as a Canadian living in ex-commonwealth (same insurance situation: govt enforced, rising 8% in cost this year alone).
The insurance situation is slightly worse than you're letting on. The insurance companies also use rising crime and car theft as justification for raising rates. Who can stop theft and rising crime? The govt and nobody else (from a legal perspective).
And what are the police doing? We had a police commissioner order the public to leave their car keys by the door to ease theft and reduce potential harm when robbers take their car. In some cases, they recommended leaving the door unlocked at night. In another instance, a private citizen tracked down the stolen car and called the cops - they refused to come to help them remove it from a port shipping container. Pictures included in the article too! The police also failed to stop thieves from re-vinning the car after it was stolen, even though this requires updates to a system where the old VIN would have been logged as stolen.
I could go on and on. We must not defend ourselves or else we will face jailtime. We must allow the criminals to take from us. We must pay our taxes while everything keeps getting worse.
Its official. Our leaders have entirely lost their minds! This is a delusional period in time unlike anything ever seen in the west before. Half the people realize it and are trying to leave, but its really the other half that concern me: the mass of people in total denial about any problem whatsoever (lost friends that are like this) or alternatively who ENJOY this.
Great points. Also insurance companies can lobby the government to continue causing more crime and thefts
Nah bro even reading this makes me feel like I'm in a dream. It almost feels like white people are so good at NOT creating problems that they're now deliberately trying to create problems one way or another. And they wonder why people all around Europe are chanting "Auslander Raus".
I'm starting to think that our leaders haven't just lost their minds. The system isn't broken, and it can't be fixed; it's working exactly as intended.
Totally relate. Feels rehearsed and is occurring here in New Zealand also. My friends grew tired of me sounding the alarm so now I just keep quiet and am waiting for them to wake up.

The reality of the situation is that if enough UK citizens got fed up with the state of things and the direction their countries are going, there really isn't anything UK gov can do to stop them, there isn't enough law enforcement and military combined to tackle a true uprising.
And they have the power to stop all this but they continue to beat down on its citizens. Damn governments
No one has any backbone though and when people do try to make actual change, it'll most likely be hijacked by bald bigots screaming about "GOE BACH TO WER YE COME FROM"
yes, but the thing the government is doing is dividing the community of britain. look at whats been happening recently, the two tier policing with the riots. britain is broken, its worse than when maggie was in power

12:23 i've never actually noticed how much seeing a car that ISN'T the same flipping black/white/grey/dark blue ford fiesta makes me happy. like the uk's surroundings and atmosphere is actually THAT boring and grey that seeing a yellow car immediately makes my day better.
my dads got a yellow car
I've said that myself, I'm the owner of a grey car, only because it was the best deal I could get road tax and insurance wise, but the amount of car colours cast into history is abomonable. Everything is black, silver or white withe ocassional dark red or blue. I love spotting the ocassional fiesta in the lime green or the abominable bright pink fiat 500, just for the purpose of seeing some colour on the streets.
Yellow cars don’t make my arm feel better
Yellow cars make me cower in fear

As a Brazilian, i must say: "First time?" Because UK is becoming just like here, next we are going to hear that crime skyrocketed, nobody is safe and £5,00 now equals $1,00. I mean it, we have the same problems here, taxes rising, importation taxed, yearly car tax increased, fuel taxes rising, every form of tax is rising here, no improvement, no progress at all, UK is following the same path of deterioration.
Left in 2017 and never looked back. There is no future for Brits in Britain without a serious revolution to not only oust the current establishment in it's entirety, but to also reverse all the damage it's done to our homeland over the last century. And I just don't see the average Brit having the capacity to do that.
For extra context, there's literally nothing for me to even go back to. I grew up in a beautiful rural village in Devon, shire vibes even into the 2010's. As I grew up, I watched that village slowly whither and die, the couple cafe's close, the green grocer and butcher unable to compete with the Safeways megastore opening a couple miles outside the village. And when I last checked google maps, it's been half bulldozed to build 'cheap' apartment blocks on for invaders seeking to live near Paignton. The Shire has been scoured, and nothing will bring it back. It is a unique kind of hate I harbor for these successive governments in the UK during my life time. But most of all I hate them for that. Never was that close to my direct parents, but until they died, I had my grandparents. And when they passed I had those green and tranquil hills to look back to as the one remaining consistent anchor point to that gilded past. The traitors even desecrated the land itself to make a few more pieces of silver off of.

Car tax and insurance is searchable before you buy, and the average car that normal people would buy would not cost nearly as much to tax and insure. He's complaining about not being able to afford being a car enthusiast and expects other drivers and taxpayers to subsidise the cost of his driving which is weak behaviour.

Even if public transport was everything you wanted and more, people would still choose to drive. Even if they used public transport for 95% of their journeys there's still that 5% of private transport use, which means you still need insurance.

@@martyinsumatra As a kid I used to dream of moving to places like the US and the UK and think they must be so much more well off compared to places like China and SEA in general... Now all I hear about are riots in europe due to sky-high immigration and the insanity that is the more than 50% tax(thinking about giving more than half my money to the govt. sounds suicide-inducing).
Now, developed Asian countries like Japan and Singapore where you don't have to live under the constant threat of gun-violence or Knife crimes and have a much better overall infrastructure than the retarded car-dependent USA actually sound like heaven and I'll be moving there as well in a few years as well lol
Realistically, that probably is the best form of protest you can do.

That’s true you don’t have to sink half your income into tax and insurance scams
All this tax to pay for the state pension.
Thank you for acknowledging this, dude, genuinely hard to not go to jail in this country lol
EDIT: Sidenote: The UK government tried to make a Discord server at one point, within 20 minutes they had to shut down #general because it got surprisingly heated VERY quickly. They then proceeded to "apologise" as if people weren't just calling the government slurs left and right.
With regards to the car insurance: my friend is learning to drive and her mum recently got a new car. The car insurace for her mum went up by £4000 per year when trying to add her as a named driver so that she could learn in her mums car. Needless to say she now cannot use her mums car to learn.
She needs learners insurance not actual insurance
@@benmarley3086 which is 12k instead?
@@DulceSeeker how? It was £800 per year for me and I was learning in a 2L turbo engine wtf
@@benmarley3086 just kidding :D
This is the best video I've seen about the state of Britain today. Brilliant!
