Despair
Fr, what's the real reason for this?
Thatcher might be dead but her legacy's as strong as ever. The kids she fucked over in the 80's now have thier own kids, and those kids are now adults having their own kids, and everything's just gotten worse as leader after leader follows her example, decreasing public spending and increasing policing. The government keep just enough concessions, like the NHS and minimum wage increases, around that people don't riot in the streets, but there are now multiple adult generations whose quality of life has only gone down, and whose parent's quality of life only ever went down, leaving everyone completely hopeless about the future.
Having to live in Britain, for starters.
I'm guessing collapsing economy is putting a lot of mental stress on people.
The weather
It's same as in Eastern Europe sometimes and that's one of the rare things I actually like about UK.
You actually like the miserable weather? Are you lot all allergic to sunlight or something?
Yes, I actually hate the sun and like weather like this:
irl silent hill
It’s the aesthetic
Nice weather to stay inside to I suppose
Never had even a bourgeois revolution
