SIR GUESTLING THORN

 There is no doubt that our masters could easily do things to ease the “cost of living crisis” VAT could be cut on several items, prices could be capped on others etc. Tax cuts will as always only help the rich. Corporation need to be taxed of their huge profits and those who stand to get richer by them need higher taxes as well. Only if wealth trickles down will the less well off lives be improved. Of course it isn’t that simple and these measures will help but there are real problems which money will not solve. This Conservative government is reluctant to take any of these measures because they are the party of the wealthy, that is their constituency and always has been. Let us be clear, especially as we have the most right wing version, this government cares little for the plight of its people only the insistent need to cling onto power! The intolerable situation of having a government that is not just asleep at the wheel but driving the country over a cliff is even worse as these two idiots fight to see which one of them will enter number 10 and make the country even worse still! The opposition is all but silent and only ex PM’s are rising to the occasion and slamming this governments inability to help in any way. We have an outgoing PM who says the problem is for the next leader and I suppose from this turd of a man we should expect nothing less, we know he never cared he just wanted to be PM. 

I am ashamed of those of my generation who have let this parlours state of our country come to this because we are too lazy, comfortable and apathetic. I hasten to add I do not excuse myself from that statement. How so many from a generation born so close to the finish of WW2 and the facist regimes that destroyed Europe, have become so right wing towards the tail end of their lives beggars belief. There is no doubt that the “older” generation is the one that mostly supports this corrupt and lying bunch and whilst many have seen the “light” I would not be at all surprised if most did not vote for them again!

The last 12 years have been a disaster for this country and from 2016 onwards that disaster has increased 1000 fold and then a 1000 fold again as soon as the Johnson premiership started. The Tories cannot control everything especially as their paymasters have exerted enormous influence over them, most of the parlours state of country lays firmly at their door. We may have still been in economic recession, no matter what stripe of party was in power but there is not shred of doubt, that had this lot not been there it would not be as bad!

Stay well!
