A Question of Priorities
There’s one percent for caring
And forty-four for war.
There’s a wall instead of sharing
And a world outside the door.
Millions for profiteering
Cuts for the poor.

I am really beginning to dislike the ethos of this country. It used to be outward looking, honest and trustworthy. It used to offer refuge and a helping hand.
What we have now is a narrow-minded, insular, little Britain – inward looking and nasty.
We have a government that lies, breaks international law and is destroying cooperation and trust in the name of petty nationalism.
They promote inequality with blatant cronyism and disregard.
I despise their arrogance.
They offer 1% pay ‘rise’ to those who risk their lives while doling out millions to Tory donors who are blatant profiteers. They then propose to waste billions on a 44% increase in nuclear weapons.
They insult our friends and suck up to tyrants and despots.
They disgust me. The people who support them disgust me.
