This is the sort of scenario the GFS is toying with during the festival week. A plume of heat but if the low pressure gets too close to us, it'll bring a lot of rain with it!

Ok, and yes the rise of AfD is worrying as they are particularly nutty, but they didn't do as well as some feared a year or two ago, the centre right christian democrat lot won by some distance. But yes Scholz has not done well, nor has Biden, and they're sort of on same page as Starmer, so there are warning signs. What is worrying is the normalisation of the far right, as the centre right try to absorb their ideas and support.
Everyone does pay for the NHS but the idea that NI funds Welfare, pensions and the NHS as it is sometimes implied is obviously nonsense. It's essentially just another income tax now. I think the whole tax system needs to be simplified massively in the UK (especially in scotland)
