I hear about so many problems going on in the UK. It just feels like there are problems with everything: long NHS waiting lists, uncontrolled immigration, over-filling prisons, lots of mental health/drug problems, inflation etc. When I was in Copenhagen, maybe its just me, it felt orderly, the streets seemed more tidy. It didn't even feel intimidating to walk through the streets at night when we went out for meals or for somewhere to drink. I maybe slightly over-reacting here, because I'm sure there are still crimes and other bad things that are happening in Denmark that I don't know about.

I wish the US were like Sweden, so I understand what you're saying.

The UK is like a mini United States these days. Profit before people, always.

Screw public services - indulge the rich! Seems to be the message.
