Much respect Joe, your content continues to tell it like it is.
Second homes, property prices, business rates, no more EU subsidies, no new affordable housing, no fault evictions, bankrupt local councils causing social service cuts, the decline of local industries, benefit cuts. They were all like slow bullets,: everyone saw disaster coming, no one did anything.
Cornwall is an unusual case as a county because, unlike more urbanised county areas, it has very low immigration stats. So this just goes to show how successive Tory governments have treated their own people, in mostly conservative constituencies.
Some people have made fortunes over the last decade, mostly at the expense of the most vunerable and working people, then they remove the wealth from circulation, pay as little tax as possible and claim non dom status.
There is no 'trickle down effect' with wealth and productivity and your videos are really showing this clearly.
Keep it up mate,

Unemployment, gangs, drugs, alcohol, immigrants and asylum seekers, crime, homelessness etc.etc. (I won't mention the implicit cultural threat from the religion of peace).
This is not multi-culturalism, because there is no integration or cohesion, despite how hard the Danish state has tried to come up with a successful formula for solving this problem (much harder than the UK government ever has tried by the way).
People who do not share the host country's values or attitudes (and have no particular reason to) end up living in an empoverished, parallel society. They end up alienated and separate, with little incentive to embrace the host country, its customs, its culture or even properly learn its language. They simply turn the host country into a version of the place they came from, complete with values and customs. This is why the DPP in Denmark have emerged and become more prominant, just like the populist parties in most other European countries have.
However you have to admit the flats look much better than those in any average English council estate, the transport links are good, the cobblestone streets are clean (even if the walls aren't) the rubbish gets collected and amazingly your bike doesn't get nicked!
As you rightly point out Joe, things are much worse in most English cities right now. Most of us would be happy if our shopping streets, our inner city areas and our transport links looked and felt as nice as their Danish equivalents. We can all speculate on why this is and who is to blame but I don't see the next Labour Government being willing or able to do much to change this awful legacy of 14 years of Tory mismanagement.
I wonder who has the solution? Leave your suggestions below....

@cafsixtieslover Someone else in the comments said it was a sh*thole, which makes me feel a tiny bit less annoyed about it's current occupants. But even if it was horrible, the Home Office pays for brand new matresses, new tables and chairs, the bedding is cleaned every four days, the food is hot and nourishing and served three times a day, the heating is always on full blast, the showers are nice and hot and there are pool tables, table tennis and tv. FOR FREE. Various charities provide new shoes, new clothing and bicycles.The guys can come and go as they please, they get a certain amount of pocket money, they all seem to be able to afford cigarettes and they all have mobile phones.

@AlanBrown. Employment could be promoted and directed towards economically deprived areas by central and local government offering businesses tax concessions, regulatory freedoms, improved infrastructure, government contracts, internal investment. Maybe even promoting our exports and limiting or taxing foreign imports?
In Sunderland, right next to the Stadium of Light, they are building a massive group of film studios, employing thousands and revitalizing the local economy, with all sorts of tax incentives that attract investment from abroad,
Why not in South Wales?
Alternatively they could use the abandoned buildings to house the thousands of illegal migrants; employing them to refurbish the town, clear the refuse, repair buildings and repaint houses?

@russianprincess3673 I am not a Leftist, nor am I a Progressive, what gave you that impression? Are you jumping to that conclusion because I correctly called you out for being Russian bot, because I called you out for using your comments to express pro-Russian, anti Western propaganda? In that respect your comment doesn't make sense comrade.
However, I am sure that in your country you do repress leftists (surely the USSR was the definition of leftist or have I missed your point?) and progressives, just as you repress democracy, the free press, political opposition, journalism, dissent, comedy, music and every other form of free speech.
Slava Ukraine.
In the West we have the choice to be stupid or not, it is a shame you don't.
