12. No doubt about it, Britain IS decadent
The West as a whole is hugely decadent. What's more I think it's fair to say that the overwhelming majority of the British people want to keep it that way. I don't see people queueing up to join a Monastary or to emigrate to less decadent climes such as North Korea or Niger.

And what's more much of that decadence is stuff that the Conservative party very much approves of such as rampant materialism. And yet again, it is foolishness for the Conservative party to play the "family values" card as people still remember back to basics.
