    They have always been fascist and they are way ahead in laws restricting rights.

    I think the guy that was pretending to be pro-genocide and watching his friends be arrested for protesting Israel about summed it up for me. Genocide okay, anti-genocide not okay in the UK.

    I think though they are less racist. They have that going for them.

      They’re so Racist that during the whole Brexit shitshow racism towards other Europeans became pretty overt at all levels.

      Also having lived in Britain and with friends which unlike me didn’t look like the locals, I heard lots of stories from them about being discriminated against in Britain and even have one myself (you could tell I was not a local if I spoke, since my accent wasn’t any of the local ones).

      Whilst Britain is good at image management, what’s under that carefully cultivated image is quite a lot darker.
