  • I think any Tory leader would’ve been forced to do the same as Cameron did in that political climate. I know he made the actual decision to have a referendum which was arguably the worst decision in the recent history of our country, but I think with the impact UKIP was having at the time, it was relatively inevitable.

    Similar to how the SNP making such huge gain is what forced a Scottish independence referendum.

    Edit: I also dread to think about the ‘what if?’ would be like if we didn’t have Covid to kind of push Bojo out.














  • Debit cards in the UK generally don’t let you go overdrawn.

    Like if I try to buy something and don’t have enough in my account I just get told ‘you can’t buy this’ and have to go transfer some more money to my account.

    I pay a £5 monthly fee, but that gets me travel insurance, breakdown cover, mobile phone cover and a bunch of other benefits that I haven’t had to use yet.

    I could opt out of that £5 fee and not pay anything at all for my banking. I find all the fees you end up with in the US a little bit insane.
