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

 

the Tories incite

hate for refugees

which comes as no surprise

at all!

Amended comment.

"Blame everyone but the government that's been in power for 13 years, especially Johnny Forriner".

The modus operandi of the Murdochian sewer at the behest of Tory moral corruption...distraction is what it's all about.

UOC-I don't recall the Tories admitting they've done anything
wrong, let alone blaming your "Johnny Forriner for everything..."
You are using the wider concern about the influx of migrants and
this government's failure to deal with it to score a political point.

Hi Uilleam
Why don't you send some of your poems to Culture Matters, I'm sure they'd be a good fit.

Pardonnez- moi but they're bang ON message.
QV:
"Blame Johnny Forinner for everything we, the Tories have done to the UK."

It does seem to me that the current/recent crop of Tories in
government have gone off message regarding their original
position as the old conservative (with a small "c") political
party. But HM's Opposition doesn't appear much different.
In short, they both appear inclined to pay far more attention
elsewhere than to the concerns of the electorate here in these
put-upon over-populated financially-stretched islands. They
are both a pretty poor lot. Something radical is required to get
domestic UK politics back on track.

As a pensioner I am grateful for the Tory's triple lock policy which resulted in a 10% pension increase this year.

For the Tories to have been in power for thirteen years a good proportion of the professionals you list Uilliam will have voted Tory and undoubtedly some will be card carrying members of the Party. Something to think about eh?
