Desocialisation

This is one of the biggest crisis of post modernity. Britain one of the countries which the world is supposed to look up to, regarding freedom, human rights  and so called democracy is  facing  a crisis called descocialisation. This is a loss of ties with people, be it friends or family or both.
Today people in Britain are facing lonely lives, which is resulting in increased depression  and other mental illnesses in the population.
Britain is seeing the decline of the family unity, increased crime, high abortion rates and pregnancies in teenagers, drug abuse, violent crimes, anti social behaviour to name but a few.
Although a democratic, Britain  is experiencing a growing number of the population who are not voting in electoral elections. What does this mean for democracy?.
Although after the last few years us as the Brits have had to put up with alot  in regards to our politicians and some of their actions, from corruption to sex scandals. Know wonder there is a lack of people who want to follow politics or vote.
Perhaps this is one reason why here in the UK, the Green Party is getting many votes from the disgruntled conservative and labour voters.
