Summary
UK Is Dying – Rats, Rubbish & Ruin
#UK politics #Birmingham rubbish crisis #UK decline #bin strike #UNITE Union
Is Britain becoming a Third World country? In this explosive video, Jon Gaunt exposes the shocking state of Birmingham and the wider UK, where overflowing rubbish, broken infrastructure, and political failure have left many areas looking like war zones.
From rat-infested streets to dustbin worker strikes, Birmingham City Council has collapsed under the weight of incompetence, debt, and neglect — and it’s not just Birmingham. Cities across the United Kingdom are plagued by crime, poverty, homelessness, and overcrowding.
Gaunty takes a hard look at how Labour, local councils, and national government have failed to maintain our public services — from the NHS to housing and law and order.
Jon asks, is the UNITE Union controlling Labour's policy decisions? Is the UK infrastructure beyond saving? With potholes, rubbish mountains, and inner-city decline, are we spiralling into a national crisis?
This is a no-holds-barred political commentary on the decline of Britain, calling out both government and public apathy. If you care about the future of the UK, want honest debate, and believe in free speech, don’t miss this.
