May 2015 was an eventful month for me, both personally and in terms of the various events I covered. It was also a month of great political disappointment, that left me feeling very depressed about the future of the country. I was born as the welfare state came into being and grew up with it, and consider it one of the great British achievements of the 20th century. But since 1979 and the Thatcher government we have seen it being attacked; New Labour continued to wind it down, and the coalition took over the process. But now we have a government dedicated to greed and I fear for our future. Britain is becoming the kind of country I don’t want to live in. Though its now perhaps more that I don’t want my children and grandchildren to live in. I’m sad and I’m angry.<\/p>\n
