I dunno, the UK’s been in a shit place for a minute now. Long decline post WW1 with blips of uptrend in the 60s and late 80s-90s.
I’m sure there’s a chart somewhere…

I'd definitely agree since the end of the 90's we've been in steep decline, in so many ways.
Slowly, then suddenly
Are we at the suddenly point yet though? Even though there’s some riots, we had those in 2014 too and still nothing quite like the early 80s.
This current batch seem social media related with a bunch of absolute bellends popping up from around the country to kick off because they don’t like brown people, as opposed to more historic riots made up of more local participants.
I dunno, I don’t have an account on X nor watch the news so I’m probably not the most reliable source… Then again, I’m probably in a better, less biased position because I don’t have an account on X or watch the news.
For nation states, IMHO:
Slowly takes around 100 - 150 years
Suddenly typically takes 15 years.
