I do know who Douglas Murray is and, although he's a right winger and I'm not, I think he speaks a lot of sense on various issues. He's quite often on TV on programmes like Newsnight, Question Time and The Big Questions so I'm sure many UK inhabitants would recognise him. I don't know how much influence on public opinion he's had. Probably not as much as endless media headlines about Islamic terrorism.
Also, I want to know the political situation after Brexit vote and Theresa May taking in the reins and the future of the Labour Party.
Thanks in advance. :)
That's a massive question best answered by reading the papers and making up your own mind. To me it looks like stunned paralysis. They don't don't know how Brexit is going to work or what to do about it.
The Labour Party needs to become a strong voice of the left again. It will be interesting to see how their next leader gets on.
The Brexit vote and Trump's election have unleashed dark forces in our nations' people. Right wing populism is on the march, and those who tend towards racism are feeling quite happy with the situation.
We've got an interesting (potentially disastrous) few years ahead of us, and I hope we all make it through without too much trouble. Good luck to everyone reading this; I wish you all the best.
Peace
