Fighting inflation will be nearly impossible without massive social unrest because of the relative positioning of the population. No natural resources (again, comparatively), the city is getting fucked by the unravelling of their massive money laundering/investment management schemes.
Really this thing comes down to inflation. The UK is going to have a really hard time arresting the declines in the pound, because that trend is not going to stop, (started in 1800's) and the prices in the UK will be comparatively higher than in other European countries, even if the eurozone has dead weight like greece and italy lol

They insisted on doing Covid, with all the bullshit we saw, and they decided to spend on it... well they fucked up pretty badly. They might have been able to live out their generation in peace but they've created a likely hyperinflation scenario, and the impoverished generation they spawned into existence (as evidenced by the super low birth rates, an obvious sign of high cost of living) is probably going to aggressively attack them like a cancer.
They absolutely REFUSED to think critically about covid lol. They just figured it would be free like everything else, all the wars, welfare etc. Amazing.

pretty much all of the land is unbuildable on because it's historically crown, baron, lord, farmer property. there are national parks, areas of outstanding natural building, sites of significant scientific interest, the greenbelts and around a hundred additional restriction 'zonings' (google "defra magic maps" and try for yourself). if that doesn't cover it, lots of the land is listed as farming: pasture which renders it unbuildablen on.

we have 13x more migrants obtaining visas per year per acre here than the US. it's an absolute fucking joke at this point. they may as well just be honest and flat out tell a couple of tens of millions of people they're going to perpetually rent.
