Life was better without the internet!

[@Sazwaz2009]

💯 1970s born girl here! we have seen our freedoms and rights being dissolved over the decades

[@zandvoort8616]

I totally agree. Wokeness and political correctness has just gone crazy. British culture has also taken a backseat. I vote this chap for Prime minister.

[@LordVessel21]

I am from Sweden. I was in London in the 90s, and then again 3 years ago, and wow things have changed in such a short amount of time. It is very similar in Sweden. I dont recognize my home anymore. It breaks my heart honestly. Now I live in Denmark, which is not nearly as bad as Sweden, but it is getting there for sure.

"...seen them new council bungalows???...Beautiful!!!...To get one of them you'd have to have 9 kids and speak with a foreign accent..."

[@georgiavonschlieffen8961]

I was born in 1968 and loved the 80s and 90s in Germany and I feel similar to what you are saying. I worry for my son, who has just finished his university education. I get the impression that things are similar in many Western countries. I dream of the 80s, when we didn't have smart phones and all this digitalisation, when neighbours were in touch and helped each other and city centres looked decent with nice shops. I could go on with more examples...

[@uncensored5104]

Back in the 80s, we thought things would get better, not bloody worse!

[@BestBitter]

One of the saddest videos on KZbin. Like Paul I do not recognise the country I grew up in. That said, I do not think I could ever leave, England is all I have to call home. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 🇬🇧

[@markbowman7240]

great time , music ..rock , auf weidershien pet classic tv , you could have a laugh at work , religion didnt take over our thoughts and the way we can tslk , live with each other , weve become sadly a woke society where we darent say or do anything .

[@smith5385]

Loads wish we could turn back time.

[@poc329]

I was born in 1961. I loved the 70's & 80's. I fear for my Grandkids. This Woke Cancer has been allowed the spread. We are ruined. Our War Dead died for nothing.

[@DuffElmer]

Born in 1970, I'd go back to the early/mid 80s in a heartbeat.

[@Theowlhawk]

Totally agree, lived in London 1980'S, 1990's, and could drive in, out of London, park anywhere, free, eat in fabulous places, drove to work, wages, then better freedoms , everyone, most could buy a home , a car, afford rent on nice places, have holidays, a social life. Could go out, come home safe. Mixed with many people all walks of life.

[@TonyGillarno]

I saw his tattoos, his tracksuit top and his gravely cockney voice and nearly scrolled on.I listened to his words and subscribed. This man is absolutely correct. The real danger comes from those things which we aren't allowed to discuss.They thrive in the shadows and invade our very soul.When freedom of speech is compromised in any way,I get really suspicious. Race,gender,religion, Israel's recent actions,covid.When we are gagged,it's time to push back.

[@jamesmccard9636]

As a Scot and BRITISH I'm and old guy hitting eighty ,when as a young boy we had little money but we most surely had a great time playing outside. football, climbing trees. hill walking and playing at all kinds of games. As teenagers we went to the pub then on to the dancing and trying to find a girlfriend where many of us found our partners . Today is no where as good as then, thanks to the most awful shower in Government and Home Office over many years starting with Tony Blair who should be in Prison , Now Sunak and Yusof , and KHAN. are talking us into oblivion. Vote for freedom vote REFORM. NOW.

[@MrSteve_Luddite.]

I feel like the Mothership plucked me out of the 80s and landed me into this shithole !

[@afraidtosay8471]

I came to England in 1994. Up till 2010, it was so English, I integrated and love deeply the English people and how they live. And now I am in my 40s, completely lost in London. I do not go to shops anymore. I order veg box online once a week and use Amazon. I take the train to stops along the line which goes to Stevenage, it's country lanes, woods, fields. Tomorrow going to Bournemouth to see the sea. I go nowhere in London. I only communicate with the English. I was mixed into multinational community for years and I finally came out of all different cultures. I can't do it, anymore. I am on my own and homesick at what I dearly made my home. I actually cry for England. I was born in Russia and have never been able to change my heart nor soul, nor my passport. I do not believe in immigration. I believe in diplomacy.

[@covidsnotrag3973]

The UK is doomed sadly. Being born in the early 60's, I think my generation are the last of the lucky ones. The youngsters of today are in for a pretty tough time I fear.

[@jeanbissettfayse8844]

I was born in the 50s

[@fraudebs8786]

This video actually made me weep. I'm 62 and the 70s 80s came washing over me as you were reminiscing also. I still live in central London, but it has changed beyond all recognition. I now walk home from work and don't even look up from the pavement until I'm home in my little bubble 😢
