What is it that British people want from their elected government? Yesterday, as rail workers held yet more strikes across the country, two Labour mayors from Manchester and Liverpool were late for their meeting because their train failed to arrive. Oh the irony, when their Party is funded by the very unions causing all the chaos. And yet, although many left-wing voters are genuinely caring people, I recall that time in 2017 when we, personally, were terrified that an apparently strong contender for leader of the Labour party had been pictured laying a wreath in Tunis alongside known antisemitic terrorists. It was as if voters back then didn’t care about people like us, at a time when we and others would have been forced to consider emigration yet again if he had been duly elected. TG he wasn’t. Fast forward, and the leading contender for the Conservative Party, and hence the PM, is a billionaire and ‘a Tory toff’ according to the media. Yet, he’s the son of Indian immigrants, who have done  exactly what the country wanted - worked hard to be an asset to the country. And me? I just want to feel safe in my own country.
