Fear for the future

At this moment in my life I have good reason to feel afraid for the future, but it is fear for us, Britain, and the world, that concerns me almost as much.
           When Trump won in America I almost went into a state of denial: oh, it'll be all right, once in office he will take the mantle of power and it will, as if by magic, bestow upon him statesmanlike qualities even he wasn't aware he possessed, like a grieving person who draws upon deep wells of strength to bring them through their great crisis, strength they never knew they had. But now I begin to wonder if that old saying might be more apposite: "absolute power corrupts absolutely". Will he actually become drunk with power and enact so many terrible things, withdrawing all environmental checks and balances, allow Israel to utterly crush the Palestinians, even attack North Korea, that America and the world could take a hundred years or more to recover?
            As for us, what will Britain look like in a couple of years from now? Will we become a low tax, low benefit niche that is good for the wealthy but very bad for the poor and the JAMS, a place where the NHS is cut back to the bone while an insurance based medical system takes over for those who can afford it, a place where councils sell all their valuables to make ends meet, and when that's gone simply cut all their services until the roads are scarcely drivable and libraries are things of the past? Will we fight a trade war with Europe that we will lose, whilst deporting our "aliens" and bringing all our expats home? I hope to God none of this will come to pass, but I fear much of it will. Nice one, you vote leavers. Fuck you.
