The only asset we truly possess is our labour, which has been exploited for centuries to create wealth, everything around us is created from labour, every single human made thing. These things are then sold back to us at a profit. All profit rises upwards, never to be seen again by those who create it […]

Culture Secretary failing to meet his legal obligations, but we’re paying
A letter a day to number 10. No 1,388 Thursday 31 March 2016. Dear Mr Cameron, Alongside your privatisation and dismantling of our education system, a chronic shortage of teachers and the impending deportation of teachers recruited from abroad for earning too little, hundreds of libraries are closing across the nation. Academies are free to […]
NLW and the destruction of Britain by Tory hitmen
A letter a day to number 10. No 1,387 Wednesday 30 March 2016. Dear Mr Cameron, It looks like another shambolic coup for George Osborne as we approach the roll out of the new living (minimum) wage. Your government has created another policy with no structure behind it to facilitate it’s roll out, leaving workers […]
Mad dog politicians, the mad dog Sun and junior doctors
A letter a day to number 10. No 1,386 Tuesday 29 March 2016. Dear Mr Cameron, The problem with politics today is that we are being attacked by mad dogs and no one is quite sure what to do about it. There is no political debate and there is no democracy, we are assaulted by […]
The utter hypocrisy of Cameron’s Easter message
A letter a day to number 10. No 1,385 Monday 28 March 2016. Dear Mr Cameron, Given the growing chaos and disintegration within your party and the country I have to admit I was surprised you had the gall to video an Easter message. Hope and help for the homeless? Since 2010 homelessness has increased […]
Just 10 months in power and it’s already falling apart for Cameron
Originally posted on UKI Left:
The Conservatives have not been in Power since John Major and that only changed in May last year. Prior to that of course they shared the floor with the Liberal Democrats. “Come back… all is forgiven!” Sort of. It seems the Lib Dems had been keeping them in check after-all…
The pension storm that’s a brewing; grand theft Tory
A letter a day to number 10. No 1,384 Sunday 27 March 2016. Dear Mr Cameron, Writing in Conservative Home, Harry Hill warns that the end of state pensions is nigh calling the ‘entire concept of retirement… an artefact of the welfare system’, as if it is just a bone from some already long dead […]
Cameron takes time to think, that’ll be a first
A letter a day to number 10. No 1,383 Saturday 26 March 2016. Dear Mr Cameron, Nothing says we’re all in this together like a holiday in Lanzarote to give yourself ‘time to think’. Weirdly, I wrote a piece about thinking only two days ago and I have to say that it’s something most of […]
Instead of an apology from Osborne we get insults
A letter a day to number 10. No 1,382 Friday 25 March 2016. Dear Mr Cameron, John McDonnell, Labour’s shadow Chancellor, stood at the despatch box opposite George Osborne and called for him to, “Apologise for the pain and anguish he’s caused disabled people and their families for the last two weeks.” He went on, […]
Disabled people are fighting back for their lives
A letter a day to number 10. No 1,381 Thursday 24 March 2016. Dear Mr Cameron, One might be forgiven for thinking that the UK Prime Minister and Chancellor of the Exchequer might want to apologise for causing distress and fear to hundreds of thousands of people, at the very least, for proposed cuts to […]
Fear and Loathing in Great Britain
