A very large proportion of the public are utterly pissed off with the status quo delivered by lacklustre, upper middle class, career politicians. And now Brexit, Trump, the Right Wing, Zelenskiy and more are reaping the rewards.

I watched Question Time last night and a Labour politician was asked if the emergence of new parties were a threat. All he could say was he was more worried about the food banks, NHS cuts, poverty, etc than new parties. It's the old parties and 25 years of the EU that have delivered food banks, NHS cuts, poverty, etc onto the people. And their only solution is people pay more taxes and more borrowing.

If career politicians won't get the act together, the people will vote them out.
