Politicians used to be seen as public servants.
I know it's hard to believe.

Mainstream news journalists used to be seen as independent.
Honestly, they did - it was kind of the main point.

Police used to be seen as keepers of the peace.
Not racists, rapists, or militarised thugs...

To some, Britain means:
> togetherness, justice, democracy, standing up for the little guy, historic freedoms, invention & a great sense of humour

To others, Britain means:
> disunity, injustice, oppression, arrogance & corruption
