I think it’s too easy (and tempting) for other countries to sit and poke and hypothesise that a country is falling apart. That was a just a case of sensationalising and far from the truth. As someone presently living in the U.K. it is the same beautiful country full of incredible views, kind people and exciting opportunity that it has always been.

Pick any other country, America, France, Brazil, Germany, Australia etc and allow me to also tell you how it is falling apart.

How is Germany falling apart?
Migrants, energy crisis, inflation, extremism, climate change, export-driven strategy etc. Google “Germany falling apart”, sort by last month, see the absolute dire commentary.
All of these are true for the UK as well, with the added problem of Brexit and possible future Scottish independence.
Exactly. I’m not saying other countries have different problems, I’m saying generally they have the same problems. People like to downplay their own problems and relish in other peoples to feel good about themselves. You can search for any country and find incredibly downbeat views on their situation. <Insert Country Here> problems.
