Since Thatcher was elected in 1979, we have pursued the neoliberal agenda and ordinary working people have been disadvantaged. Our infrastructure and services have been privatised, to the extent that much is owned by foreign companies, interestingly enough quite a few of them being foreign state owned companies.
The obsession with private money and self-regulation has proved disastrous.
Our public housing stock has largely gone, what is left is usually the unsellable crap that should perhaps never have been built. (which we resent refuges taking shelter in) Many moan about the benefits budget in the UK, a huge proportion of which goes on housing benefits. And the truth of that is that the biggest benefits claimants are the stinking rich private DHS slum landlords.
Having destroyed our industry, destroyed our unions, sold our homes, privatised our infrastructure, the working man is left a prisoner to his inflated mortgage or rent and zero hours contracts. But hey, it’s all OK, cos David Cameron’s big society is there to pick up the pieces with food banks for us to fall back on just in case we are literally starving.
Meanwhile in the UK the more you earn the less tax you pay. In fact, the biggest companies operating in the UK don’t pay any tax at all.
And who is to blame for all this? Well apparently, it’s benefits cheats, it’s refugees (the victims of our deeply flawed and immoral foreign policy and arms sales.)
And now of course it’s the EU.
