Great. As some here say, he's the same if not worse than the incumbent.

This is the trend now it seems, more top down government.

the state is primary

the citizens are slaves

You can always count on the left to replace one of their failure with someone worse.

I feel like the UK has been here before.

After WWII, Britain went very socialist. By the 1970s, they had nationalized a number of industries, and the economy was stagnant. That’s why the voters turned to Margaret Thatcher. They wanted her to dig the country out of the hole that socialism had made.

The media — as far as I can tell — managed to convince the public that, yes, the UK was in a hole — and it was 100% Thatcher’s fault. So the voters got rid of Thatcher. And they have spent more than 30 years since, going more and more in a socialist and globalist direction.

Now the public is (once again) tired of the socialism and eager to try something different. And the media — as far as I can tell — is making the suggestion that more socialism is the fix they need. Certainly you don’t want to do anything stupid like go in the direction Thatcher suggested.
