As someone who lives in the UK, this government and their adoption of authoritarian policies in the recent past is depressing.
I just hope when given the opportunity next year at the polling stations, the British electorate doesn't vite to be f**ked Inthe ass again for the next five years.
When you consider the order.
Austerity to increase poverty and reduce free time of the working class.
Protest rights to limit the right to gather. So leaders do not actually have to fear the citizenship.
Followed by direct attempts to remove any legal limitation on government actions.
Disgusting is a better ord then depressing.
And lets face it. All the gov needs to do now. Is claim russia or any other nation has declared war. And they can stop any need to be elected.

But now best they can do is delay it. But even then. Its up to commons how fast they work on overriding them. Hate to sound like a conspiracy theory nut. But its seeming harder not to every day. they sure as hell aint trying to get elected atm,.
