Pessimism in the UK and Baggy Jumpers

So, you'd have to be a complete hermit to not notice the major events happening around the world right now: flooding in Australia, terrorism, immigration issues, the economy and, of course, the weather.
In all honesty I feel it's a bit overrated and would recommend watching Russell Howard's Good News in order that we don't all commit suicide because the world has gone to pieces.
I'm not going to lie, it would be wrong of me to say we aren't all saddened to hear of the events in Queensland, or any other major disaster; be it in war or caused by nature. But in my opinion, rather than newspeople reporting the incident every two minutes on the same channel they could be using the money to broadcast to send aid to these people. I wish these people well in these hard times and only wish that the trouble passes soon.
The threat of terrorism and immigration in the UK appauls me. Since the incidents in London a few years ago we haven't seen an actual attack from a terrorist organisation. And yet we are constantly reminded of the threat of terrorism, even having fundamental rights such as habeus corpus being changed in order to detain 'suspected terrorists'. Immigration to me is overly criticised. I hear people in the street arguing how 'foreigners are taking their jobs'. I am yet to see a person not of British descent fight a British person in the street because they walked into that British person's job saying "this is mine now". In my experience, these people come over in order to gove their families a better shot at life and take the jobs we turm our noses up at, or indeed are better qualified to do.
The economic situation, i'm not going to lie, is getting on my nerves. Student fees are rising, and all we seem to do is riot (...?) and VAT is going up. I feel sorry for those people who have cut back as much as possible and are now suffering at the hands of a Tory government. There has to be an easier solution than cutting back services, jobs and education without raising wages; this current soultion surely can only send us into a downward spiral?
Finally, the weather. We British love to moan about it. The snow was beautiful, but now all the news can do is complain about the potholes it has created. But I supposes we do have a bad share of the weather, especially with the rain and wind.
Hence why i'm such a fan of the baggy jumper. It is my strong belief that every woman should have a jumper that is at least two sizes too big because they're just so warm! Steal your boyfriend's or even your dad's. That's what i did - recycling at it's best. Wear it with a belt and tights or leggings and stay warm until the sun shows for two weeks in summer.
