Saw a guy who looked in his late 30s today, walking down my (northern British) street in just his dressing gown and slippers. In the pouring rain.
There’s a supermarket at the end of the road, but he didn’t go there. No, instead, he walked to the end of the street, smoked a fag, then shambled back up the street and home again. In his dressing gown, skinny legs bare from the knee down. In the pissing rain (and it was windy and only around 10C).
Is this what the politicians mean when they talk about ‘Broken Britain’? What’s wrong with the UK?
