Not a single person in the thread has said it's the worst place in the world. I can't see many people rushing off to Iraq or the Gaza strip. In the very first post I said I could understand why so many people emigrate to the UK. It's just not a particularly free country anymore and there are better places to live if you are of a libertarian mindset. If you're a socialist then the UK is probably the best place going as it has a reasonably high standard of living, but I'm not and for me it is too authoritarian.
