Is the UK heading for a new revolution/civil war?

Question

Just posing the question for a thesis....

Regarding to the TAX levels, Discrimination, Law & state of the nation as a whole....

Answer 1

I don't know about a civil war, but it is certainly heading towards a revolution; civil disobedience at best.
The government is creating a flood of legislation, and all you ever hear is; "You will be fined if... " and "Fines are in force for ..."
I live in Italy now, and go to the UK only occasionally, but I can't get over the barrage of "fines" that seem to face you all as soon as you get out of bed (and even before that :-)
I drove through Birmingham on Christmas day, and my satnav was bleeping incessantly, like a mobile phone ringing, advising me of speed cameras.
I hope that it will be the ID card that finally pushes people over the edge. £2,500 fine if you don't register, and £1,000 fine if you don't keep it up to date. (replacement cards cost £30). Sounds as if they realise people won't do it because they want to or believe in it then eh?

Answer 2

I lived in England for several years and still have close relatives there. The Bush War and the perceived failure of the Blair/Bush agenda have caused a wave of young people to question their leaders and the ability of some to wield great power without the burden of great wisdom.
Is the UK headed toward a civil war? I would say no way. But the times are always changing and I believe that in the future there will emerge little tolerance for political leaders whose political views are so disparate from from those held by the majority of the population that they serve.

Answer 3

Dumb remark disguised as a query, besides the undeniable fact that youthful Troll, the place is the conflict interior the U.ok. or Europe with the Christian and Muslims? The U.ok. has been struggling with greater of a conflict against Irish terrorists provided that 1968 related to hundreds if no longer hundreds of squaddies, police and auxiliary centers. there have been far greater deaths interior the Anglo-Irish conflict than British voters killed in some random bombings by utilising minority Muslim Fundamentalists interior the U.ok. New international Order!!!! you are able to desire to get your tinfoil hat re sized as this one is pinching the vacuum on your cranium have been a classic functioning innovations usually is living.

Answer 4

Revolution would be difficult as we, the public do not have access to modern weapons, however I would think that civil disobedience will rule. As has been said the ID cards will probably be the catalyst. As for the US invading they have had that plan since the 1930's

Answer 5

possibly there are a lot of citizens who feel dis-enfranchised by the way the government is treating them and there could be a backlash. there are already an increase in the number of people signing up to the BNP because of this

Answer 6

No as usual we just moan apathetically but do nowt besides If you believe the paranoids we are being watched all the tine

Answer 7

no because the people have been moulded by the government by its media eg sun newspaper daily mail so they are to dumb or drunk to start a revolution . the majority of the people are more interested in watching stupid TV programs than politics or currant affairs.

Answer 8

Civil war on what?

Answer 9

I sincerely hope so - lets get rid of these carpetbagging New McLabour scumbags.

Answer 10

hopefully we have moved away from that bearing in mind that (and you can call it the 'troubles' if you like) we have just come out of one in Northern Ireland...............Voting would be the civilised way to show disapproval, anyone who doesn't has no right to complain
