It's slowly dawning on more people that the millions who want to vote for Trump or Brexit, and who are just fed up with politics altogether, are often the same people who *used* to be in trade unions. Lots of triumphant claptrap about the death of unions. You can see what valuable role they played now. The Liberals/Tories/Republicans managed to seduce ex-unionists for a while with immigrant and gay bashing and a bit of patriotic flag waving, and promises that everybody can be a millionaire if they just work hard, but that time is coming to an end. The genie is out of the bottle, it's just incoherent rage now. As ye sow, so shall ye reap.
