are multiplying for the government. The sleaze of Mandleson/Epstein is perhaps the tip of the iceberg – certainly for the House of Winsor. Adopting racist programmes to counter Reform are not working – and now there is an all out assault against the Greens. Trump is applying tarrifs like a child in a toy shop, unemployment, especially youth unemployment is increasing; SEND statistics are ridiculous (My opinion is that every child has special educational needs – but not all need outside intervention). Care for the elderly has not been addressed; Student loans are a sick joke. On a positive note migration figures are down – but is this good? Energy bills will be lowered by 7%. A subsidy for E.V.s is being raised. And in an attempt to win the green vote badgers, pine martins and white tailed eagles are being released (although the latter will probably be shot by landowners gamekeepers.

Capitalism – I am not an expert on political economics – but the situation at Manchester United seems to be all that is wrong with capitalism. The club was bought by an American family (Glaziers) with borrowed money and they have paid themselves £1.3 billion whilst the accumulated debt of ManU is. …. £!.3 billion. Ratcliffe has invested from his tax exempt hideaway and has sacked staff and stopped perks. But the debt rises despite Uniteds world wide popularity – and needed new stadium is estimated to cost over £2 billion. Water companies have also been treated as cash cows by foreign companies and investors. A good reliable income, forget the purpose of the organisation, take a loan and fuck off to the tropics! And then because of the huge debts, the creditors cave in and take the pickings thrown them by the fat cats. Unregulated capitalism sucks, as do communism, socialism, theism, fascism and dictatorships.
