Can you smell it? The stench of sewage emanating from that edifice to power, privilege and wealth, The Westminster Houses of Hypocrisy and Corruption. While they make noises about water companies discharging sewage into our rivers and beaches, their corridors of power have sewage swilling around as the accepted normal. Recently we had a Chancellor of the Exchequer being fined by inland revenue for omitting to pay tax on a wee bundle of a few million he stashed away in a tax haven. Then we had a member of The House of Lords, the upper part of the sewage factory, Michelle Mone, offering to source PPE via her company in Hong Kong. First making the suggestions to two of her buddies in government, before such company was set up. Her buddies in high places swung her over £200 million of tax payers money. The company produced equipment that couldn't be used and then went belly-up. In the precess more than £20 million from the company found its way into her family foundation fund.
The recently our Prime Minister one Rishi £800 million Sunak who generously opened up hundreds of new licences for oil and gas extraction in the North Sea. Omitting to mention that just a few months earlier The firm founded by his father-law, and which it is stated that his wife has a £400 million stake, had just signed a $1.5 billion deal with BP. What also has the stench of sewage is that just a few weeks ago the CEO of Shell became a member of Rishi £800 million Sunak's new Business Council.
The whole bunch of them are up to their armpits in double dealing and shady deals for self advancement. Nothing that comes out of that establishment is ever designed for our benefit, it is all to do with building the economy, launched by the illusion that in turn is for our good. However the real gainers or the wealthy privileged barons of business and their minders, MPs and members of the government. That is what the state is set up to protect.
