Scaremongering and Lies
Scaremongering and lies
Scaremongering and lies
Were the substance of their cries.
Project fear

They made their feelings clear.

Who cares if we will have to pay.

We’re losing our nation.

The fear that is a sham.
The fascists and nationalists rub their hands;
It’s beyond their wildest dream.
Isolationism and poverty
As the economy leaks from every seam.
Heading for a meltdown
In the uncertainty pit.
The rising of the right
The result of it.
As the country turned blue
In a day we’ll live to rue.

Right now I am thoroughly depressed. I fear for my children – all four of them at risk.
Interest rate rises will plunge tens of thousands into despair.
Corbyn was the silent man. He has to go.
Cameron has gone.
What now? Blundering, bluff of blustering Boris? Snide viciousness of Gove?
More austerity is inevitable.
How many companies will flee?
How far will house prices drop?
The pound will rise but to what level?
How many billions will the country lose?
How much damage will the uncertainty do?
How will the terrorists exploit the confusion?
And Russia? – more war in Europe?
Already the reassurances of Stupid Boris and Gove have proved inept and naïve – perhaps even cynical.
I fear for the future of the country. This is a self-created crisis and nobody knows how bad it will get. The saddest thing is that the ones who will be hit by it will be the ones who gleefully voted for it.
All we can do is hope and try to minimise the effects and heal the divisions.
Be afraid.
