A letter a day to number 10. No 1,520 Friday 11 August 2016. Dear Mrs May, I confess that I am confused. Why oh why are you Tories hell bent on privatising the state? Private companies, small businesses, trades and so on, serve a useful function bringing goods and services to people and it is […]

So long tax payers and thanks for all your cash
A letter a day to number 10. No 1,502 Monday 25 July 2016. Dear Mrs May, The privatisation of, er, well, everything, reminds me of Douglas Adams’ title of the fourth book in his ‘Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy’ trilogy, ‘So long and thanks for all the fish’… So long tax payers and thanks for […]
Eradicating the poor, what’s the ball park figure they’re aiming for?
A letter a day to number 10. No 1,442 Monday 23 May 2016. Dear Mr Cameron, With GP’s voting overwhelmingly in favour of a ballot to strike to prevent the demise of their profession, I am curious as to whether you have a ball park figure for population reduction that your wholesale destruction of public […]
The government trafficking in peoples lives for profit
A letter a day to number 10. No 1,410 Friday 22 April 2016. Dear Mr Cameron, I do not count it any sign of weakness to say to you that I am heart broken. I have never wept more in my life than I have wept since 2010 and I say that without a hint […]
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 […]
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.

Despite being paid by us, Cameron doesn’t work for us
A letter a day to number 10. No 1,154 Tuesday 21 July 2015. Dear Mr Cameron, In your stunning U-turn over your pay rise you said, “you’re paid a rate for the job and you should take the rate for the job”. All well and good, except you and your government are not doing the […]
The banking crisis, the goose that laid the golden egg
A letter a day to number 10. No 1,119 Tuesday 16 June 2015. Dear Mr Cameron, Looking back to the banking crisis, I think one of the most remarkable things about it was that it never occurred to the vast majority of ordinary people, including me, that it would become the goose that laid the […]
Cameron forced to take a pay rise, I feel his pain
A letter a day to number 10. No 1,106 Thursday 04 June 2015. Dear Mr Cameron, I see that you have had to accept your pay rise which was forced on you against your wishes and you do not feel able to formally challenge the pay watchdog. If there are to be any cuts to […]
‘Rise like Lions after slumber In unvanquishable number – Shake your chains to earth like dew Which in sleep had fallen on you – Ye are many – they are few.’ – Percy Bysshe Shelley – The Mask of Anarchy.
A letter a day to number 10. No 1,079 Wednesday 06 May 2015. Dear Mr Cameron, Whatever happens tomorrow, the battle for the UK is on and it won’t be won by any self aggrandising knights in shining armour in parliament.
