    The part of population decline isn’t good if it’s cause is people unable to afford homes or stagnate wages.

    Hell, in the UK Birthrates plummeted because of the sheer damage Tories have caused us since they took over in 2008

      since just 2008? We’ve had 40 years of right and righter wing politics destroying the country and making the infrastructure crumble.

          They were still full on neolib free market types. Which is why I said right and righter wing.

          We’ve not had a center or left party for decades and FPTP guarentees it.

            Yes, as I call them dipshits

            and I pointed out 00’s New Labour increased social spending, and British TFR can be even higher with a party that’s proper left instead of New Labour’s dipshit right
