Even in the harsh days of Victorian and Edwardian England, there
were philanthropists who made it their business to improve the
lives of the less fortunate and are justly remembered for their
deeds. Their kind should have died out with the political progress
in the last century but it seems they are still needed when so
many modern politicos appear to be self-serving party animals
intent on following the party and ideological lines before the care of the country and its people, even busy extending their influence
into matters of wider social concerns, including the countryside
and our personal lives within its invaluable but very vulnerable estate.

For the sake of anyone considering studying Lanky Twang as a second language, I have provided a translation. 😉
I would recommend the works of Edwin Waugh, the renowned Lancashire poet, as an aid; translations of key words and phrases being provided in copies of his work.

Thank you Tom Doolan, Stephen Gospage, Steve White, David RL Moore for the likes, and thanks for the comments.

All around me I see the debris of neighbours’ lives destroyed through the stripping out of vital life-saving services, including mental health, all for no better reason than the enrichment of politicians’ cronies who have their fingers in the tills of what were once “Public Services”.

I’ve been experimenting with different ways of using a mic, Stephen, and it might not seem important, but taking a slurp from a handy cuppa, taking a few deep breaths and relaxing, helps a great deal with the clarity of recording. I also use an effect called "Studio Reverb" in my software.

I enjoyed this, Uilleam, although it describes a sad state of affairs. You're audio reading is exceptional!
