The UK could've had cheap gas as well, but the conservatives lied to their UK constituents and sold it off on the cheap. It seems like every time a conservative is elected into power they fuck the working class.

    Until people have enough, elect people representing the workers, who fixes things (sort of) but then those conservatives always come back for second helpings.

    "You could be rich too!" Vote for me (a conservative)!

    Guess they have all their time in the world to fuck us up, while we are working.

    The UK hasn't elected people who represent the workers since 1974

    New Labour are just Tories with working class marketing. Conditions have continued to get worse for workers under New Labour, hence the recent push towards the Greens. Because they're the only major party taking an anti capitalist stance
