    One thing I like about Lemmy is how interesting articles that I want to read all the way through are recommended pretty often. And often from sources I would never usually read. That seems to be missing on Reddit.

    It’s fascinating how the writer of this piece sees the situation, as he doesn’t believe Tories are ‘baddies’, just corrupt and incompetent. There’s been almost no discussion this election about the damage the ‘competently evil’ wing of the Tories has done to the country through austerity. They are so much more dangerous than the incompetent ones.

      Yeah you can already see how they’re trying to rewrite the last 14 years. Everything was going fine until Johnson and Truss ruined everything. Never mind that austerity stripped our public services to the bone so we were unprepared for anything, let alone a global pandemic.
