The term ‘British Disease’ was used in the media and in particular foreign media when I was a teenager in the 1970’s to describe the dire state of Britain, it’s society and its economy. Our economy was buggered, there was industrial strife and Britain was a sad run down sort of place lacking in hope. However now in the 21^st century we have another sort of ‘British disease’ and that is bad management of the nation, a failure to protect Britons from imported troubles and a hatred of the ordinary Briton from those who govern and administer us and our institutions. As Dan Salt from the ‘Politically Homeless’ blog has said on the X platform when you look at the state of Britain it’s difficult to do much more than weep at the damage that has been done and be angry at the political, media and administrative classes who have brought us to this point.

Mr Salt said:

My emotions when I look at this country are Sadness and depression at the state of the country Rage and contempt towards the political class who have brought us here Delight but fear at the speed that the public mood is moving

Like Mr Salt I also feel rage and contempt for the political class who’ve created so much of a disaster for Britain and Britons. Again like Mr Salt I can see attitudes among the public changing and not altogether in a good way.

The change in attitude on the park of the public which includes contempt and hatred of the political and admin classes could end up in a pretty dark place with all the things that I’ve feared and warned about such as vigilantism and mob violence, coming along the road. When change comes and Britain becomes ungovernable and politically bankrupt it will be like how Ernest Hemingway described the two ways that a person can become financially bankrupt which is at first slowly then all at once. At present I believe that we are in the ‘slowly going bankrupt’ state of national decline but sooner or later we will be in the suddenly ‘all at once’ stage and when that happens Britain is not going to be pretty not by a long chalk.
