What are the problems Britain faces over the next decade?

[Thekwango]

police are too busy on twitter people school age children with playground games

google translate hasn't helped me on this one....

Or bought builders sand instead of kiln dried sand

Indeed.

 

[potatolord]

People running out of space on their bodies for new tattoos, throwing thousands of hard-working tattooists out of work.

Imagine if people stopped buying coffee and subscribing to Netflix they'd all be living in mansions.

i don't drink coffee or have a netflix subscription, now where's my damn mansion?

 

[Freddie1980]

Similar ones we are facing today; cost of living, pensions, lack of housing. The only difference is the government minister will be wearing red rosettes instead of blue ones.

Clearly a lazy layabout then.

Nothing to do with the 1% controlling all the wealth and trickle down economics being a myth? They've got you well trained.

I think both ends of the scale are true but the majority is from the first point made

Surely the obese epidemic is actually helping then?

The plan to make all children morbidly obese is a huge win:
More surface area
Less crime as they can't climb through windows/ run away
Reducing the pensions issue over time.

I can't tell if this future leads to Wall-E or Mega-City 1 fatties with tattoos, both perhaps?

Maybe we’ll finally acknowledge state welfare/pensions are a population Ponzi scheme. Lol jk no chance.

 

[uber soldat]

The Scottish Groat being worth less than the Zimbabwean Dollar when Wee Jimmy Kranky gets her way.

 

[CapitalOne]

How to rejoin the single market

 

[Moley]

More militant left cultural contagion from American Academia crossing the pond and infecting our institutions.

Anyone who has a private pension or workplace stakeholder pension knows this already. It's everyone else who still expects the taxpayer to be their sole funder in retirement.

Also, more post-truth right wing “if it feels good it’s right” populist fantasy infecting our politics

High prices, high cost of living poor wages nhs sold off to the lowest bidder

Electric only 4 hrs a day if we're lucky

We're going backwards not forwards

And the return of work houses oh and maybe Scotland and Wales wanting independence

Country's going down the pooper as its run by incompetent useless vats of monkey waz

 

[Hades]

The breakup of the union with Ireland and Scotland leaving in the next 10 to 20 years. Only Wales will still be under our thumb part of the union.

Stagflation, the erosion of the spending power in each of our pockets, and a possible house price correction affecting people in ways we haven't seen since the 90's recession.

I think people expect the future to be better than it is today. I'm afraid they are in for one hell of a shock.
