General Election 8th June

[VNA]

Let me move you a little to the centre away from the left tainted view.
They were sold to people actually living in them at the time, not only that but they were sold at a massive discount to the tenant depending on how long they had been renting. 

  And your point is caller?

You know in the wee town in which I grew up and still reside in, the wealthy families used to be the families with the businesses, such as the fishing boat owners, the dairy farmers, the butchers, the hotelier and café/restaurateur etc.  Today it’s generally the same families, some of them though not all of them still have those old businesses, but what most of them if not all of them have are large property portfolios, comprising mainly of one and two bedroom flats let out to the DSS.  The money, the profit they make is phenomenal.  Indeed the ones that still have their old businesses, well often it’s just a side line to the main money, that is their DSS property empires.



Whereas we once had council houses providing high quality housing for ordinary people at low cost.  We now have often low-quality housing provided by DSS landlords at eye watering rip off prices paid for by you and I.


So not only do my/our taxes subsidise the big national and international won’t pay their workers a living wage tax dodging bastards (tax credits and the like) but I/we then have to pay folks hugely inflated rent to their filthy rich DSS landlords.


Talk about fucked up!


I need to stop.  I could go on and write pages and pages about how fucked up this country has become under successive neo liberal governments (Tony Bliar’s Labour government included).


We are getting seriously screwed.  And if you vote Tory, you are just asking to be screwed even harder.


Steve, as for the young – what future?  Electing a Corbyn government is a chance to turn the tide against the neoliberal rot and give the young folks a future.
