DC is doing a great job of that isn't he.......

When we make a mess at a party we can simply call a cleaning company pay them and they will sort it out. If they do not sort it out then we can get on their case and berate them.

A lot of people seem to think that the same process applies to governing the country.
We seem to think that we can indulge ourselves in left wing governments that will leave us in dire economic straits. Just like the cleaners people seem to think that simply voting the Tories in will clean up the mess. If they do not clear it up then we can berate them.
I am afraid that it is not quite as simple as that. The Tories may not be clearing up the mess quite as we would like them to (ie without it impacting on our lives), but they are the only alternative.
So I am afraid whilst you can sit smugly criticising them for not delivering your utopia for you, you might have to accept some responsibility for making the mess in the first place and further accept that there may not be a better solution anyway.

I don't think they'd find it much like the version of the UK that they hold so dear.

Probably not, but I read that we could have relocated the entire population to some lookalike island off Scotland, given them a million quid each and it would have been cheaper than the war.

And fewer deaths, too.

Mind you, Thatcher would likely have lost the election.
