Not By Tony Benn

The Tories treat

our nurses with contempt

our doctors with disdain

our firefighters with derision

our ambulance workers with disrespect

our railway staff with scorn

our carers with despisal

our armed forces with antipathy

our sick with neglect

our elderly with indignity

our teachers with ridicule

our children with condescension

our pensioners with contempt

I Citizen, can let no king be mine,

I will not swear an oath in your god’s name.

You do not reign by any right divine,

To my loyalty you have no right, no claim.

 I swear I’ll pay to these my true allegian...

National Emergency: Life or Death Fight for the NHS!

 

 

General Strike Now!

Mick Lynch + Eddie Dempsey = Absolute Stars! "For the Many, not the Few in the Cayman Isles"

 

The NHS-hating Tory hypocrites said “clap”;

Like the fool that I was, in the cold at our door,

I cheered and I whistled for the Tory claptrap,

While those partying scumbags sicked up booze on the floor,

Set emergency alarms off; and the Met Plod did ...

no more season's greetings

in a coma Christmas begets

few hale or hearty meetings

 

drones take Santa's place

icy pla...
