This procession of ghastly Tory governments have inflicted 10 long years of misery for the many, and for the most part undeserved prosperity for the few. In doing so they have done even more damage ...
CONditioning - whilst the rich now believe they not only have the right to their wealth but they are entitled to even more, everyone else has had 'know thy place' drummed into them
The Anti Robin Hood CON - take from the poor by imposing benefit cuts, and give to the rich by handing out tax rebates
The CON of Divide and Rule - setting the JAMS against the most vulnerable by blaming the latter for everyone else who has suffered through the effects of austerity, and taking advantage of the numerous TV programmes which have painted anyone on benefits as being scroungers
The Status of Money CON - pushing hard on the idea that money somehow makes a person better than others, where only those with money are viewed as being successful, and as a consequence the arrogance of the wealthy has grown even worse, and a culture of greed & selfishness have become more the norm
Some say the clock's been turned back to the 30's - yes to the greedy mill owners of the 1830s! So you would have thought by now everyone who's not the richest miniscule percent will have been totally ground down. But along comes a pandemic like most have never experienced before, and the vast majority have ended up working alongside each other. regardless of wealth & status, in looking after those worse off than ourselves.
So maybe there's still hope yet. I mean, just who was that idiot who said there's no such thing as society?!
