Faceless financiers take us for rides,
Decade after decade gamble our lives.
Accountants help them to punish us all
As they play fast and loose with fiscal rules.
Westminster lawyers hand out faulty tools,
That take general public for complete fools.
Give with left hand then take away with right,
Mostly we give in without a fight,
Duped by fallacy of democracy,
Dished out by flakey aristocracy.
Class structure shows that we are The Many,
Yet we elect traitors, ten a penny.
They focus our minds on refugee boats,
Nat Cs say anything to win more votes.
Harry Rogers in the Red Bedroom 17th May 2023.
