The world is being driven by the morally bankrupt and the utterly corrupt for whom accumulated wealth has more worth than life itself and in the hunger for which, globally, they destroy the lives and livelihoods of billions of people. It is impossible for most ordinary people, including me, to know how corrupt the UK […]

The end of the world as we know it – good
Since the days of Margaret Thatcher what has become abundantly clear is that at the very heart of neoliberalism, the financial markets, the ‘free market’ ideology and right wing ideologues like the Tories, they know the price of everything and the value of nothing. The cause of the Grenfell Tower tragedy is not just a […]
The big question isn’t in or out of Europe…
A letter a day to number 10. No 1,433 Saturday 14 May 2016. Dear Mr Cameron, Every time I hear something like, ‘Labour’s great recession after 2008’ my head does a little blurred jump, like a glitch in the matrix whilst someone is trying to rewrite the code live. It makes me want to do […]
The Tories and the anti-Midas touch of state destruction
A letter a day to number 10. No 1,314 Wednesday 13 January 2016. Dear Mr Cameron, You Tories employ what I can only describe as the anti-Midas touch in your attacks on Britain. You’ll have to pardon my crudeness but it matches the crudeness of your polices because the simple fact is that everything you […]
Britain – this is what a dictatorship looks like
A letter a day to number 10. No 1,284 Sunday 13 December 2015. Dear Mr Cameron, I have to say that the move in Britain from a putative liberal democracy to a dictatorship has been impressive. I grant you that, and the money and interests that you serve. After all what does a dictatorship look […]
Junior doctors, rogue government, and where the line is drawn
A letter a day to number 10. No 1,250 Thursday 05 November 2015. Dear Mr Cameron, As I follow the battle of junior doctors being fought against bogus reasons and deceitful ideological purposes, for a 24 hour NHS which has existed since its inception, what hits me more than anything else is that Hunt, and […]
The law isn’t the only justice in the land, not by a long way
A letter a day to number 10. No 1,210 Thursday 24 September 2015. Dear Mr Cameron, You really don’t understand or even care about ordinary people at all do you? Ashcroft petulantly having a go at you, and your reported comments – ‘a little prick, a stab in the back’ – ‘rather summed up my […]
The Tories, an insult to human intelligence (or any other come to that).
A letter a day to number 10. No 1,167 Monday 03 August 2015. Dear Mr Cameron, After yesterdays whistle stop tour of ‘around the Tories in 80 days’ I have to say that probably your greatest offence is the daily onslaught of government insults to our intelligence. At a time of record production and confidence […]
A political career in treachery!
A letter a day to number 10. No 1,076 Sunday 03 May 2015. Dear Mr Cameron, Like many who have endured under the worst government in UK history and for the tragedy of all those we’ve lost, I hope, with every particle of my being, that this election is not just your career defining moment, […]
All lies and spin, this nation cannot afford another five years of Tories
A letter a day to number 10. No 1,062 Saturday 18 April 2015. Dear Mr Cameron, I have to say that the Leaders debate on Thursday looked quite refreshing without you there. Thank you for deciding not to bother attending. I notice you decided to go to Leeds instead, apparently saying you liked a good […]
