And no one is happy, well, about 40% are happy, the rest... no. So let me, dear reader, enlighten you on why there should be a... say, revolution.

I laugh at the Americans who demand a revolution when the President only has a 13% approval rating, with 40% of the population happy you don't have anything to complain about. Then again, 13% of America is still more people than 40% of the UK.

OK, so, if you have been living under a rock for the past 3 months, the Torries (conservatives) and SNP (Scottish National Party) won the election.

Your conservatives are more liberal than our liberals, don't expect much sympathy from Americans on this result.

Your idiot of 8s got bent. If you're going to insult someone, do it right.

2. A lot of tax dodging and high pay stacks go for certain... Torries....

Be specific. I know that can be hard with this, I can literally spend a whole day researching all the corrupt payoffs accepted by US politicians, but just saying that the party you don't like is corrupt doesn't do much to sway anyone.

3. Yeah... take all the immigrants out of Britain, see how your country runs...

Fairly well? The UK is not a large nation, is an island, does not have a large population, doesn't receive many immigrants, and has so few minorities to identify as obvious immigrants that removing them wouldn't be a huge impact.

I'm not up to date on british slang, but I'm betting I could describe your preferred party in the exact same way. Unless there's some homeless independent party that depends on pity votes to get elected.

Labour is hopeless at the moment as well. The battle for leadership is in total chaos, with a bland selection of former Shadow Cabinet members suddenly upstaged by the arrival of the affable, intelligent, hard left, and completely unelectable Jeremy Corbyn. The Lib Dems are destroyed, UKIP is (thankfully) MIA, and the SNP aren't doing much except annoy the Tories. This means the Tories have carte blanche to cut everything further in a desperate attempt to save cash that will not pay off because the defecit is unassailably large using that tactic. Also Michael Gove is Justice secretary. Although he seems to be doing better there than his disastrous stint at the department for education.

What has he done within the past 5 years. Nothing, but worsen the status in Britain, [...]
