TBF, so am I, but everywhere I turn, I see a Country, a County, Towns & Villages ravaged by cuts to services, sky high prices for everyday essentials, people on strike left right and centre because they are having to rely in part on foodbanks. The rise in Foodbanks being a national disgrace btw.
I see some of our city centres starting to look like San Francisco, homeless on every corner, Most ordinary folk can‘t afford to rent or buy anywhere decent on basic salaries nowadays as the country, its public services and housing systems belong in Victorian Britain, nobody not even the tory MP’s can avoid it. The poor souls in power will have to take second jobs for 2 afternoons a quarter to make their salaries up to the £500K plus they need to upkeep their mansions, estates, and public school fees for their 4 kids. So, we are all in it together we’ll be told as they tell us they understand.
They know they are in trouble electorally, so the only option to cling on is to introduce photo I.D. knowing that tory voting Nigels from Accounts will have a passport, driving licence etc whilst Labour voting single parent Meena, relying on UC, can’t afford driving lessons or foreign holidays so neither are be to hand. All the pensioners (who are said to be more likely to vote tory) can use their bus passes though, so thats ok, after all, they’ll want to thank Rishi for his kind gesture of allowing the triple lock back, forgetting that he removed it the previous year as it wasn’t nearing an important election and being old, they’ll forget anyway. They can fix two issues in one go, they have fixed a problem that didn’t exist and they have helped to fix future elections too.
People fought for the right to vote and now in 2023, we are seeing the tories remove their opportunity to vote by stealth, what a fecking way to treat your people, still we have levelling up I suppose…….
