Political Pledges...Lies.?

Tory culture wars laying waste to the countryside .There was a time when conservatism meant
what it said on the tin....to keep things as they are ignoring all the economic and social change
going on to defend the position of the dominant classes ?
No longer is it enough to own land ,most of the capital,own the media and political process.
To reinstate Edwardian levels of equality the feral elite must reverse the political progress and ditch
the rules that prevent the powerful from acting as they please.
No where is deregulation more destructive than in the natural world.
This government is ignoring the devastating disease raging throughout the UK of the Ash tree,it
cares little what is happening to the Bees,the mass slaughter of Badgers.
In March the government published it`s `kill list`of environmental regulations controlling hazardous
waste,air pollution,contaminated land,noise,light.......Regulation is the means civilized societies
resolve their conflicts,it prevents the selfish and powerful from spoiling the lives of others.
The ``environment Taliban``are Greg Barker Minister and Osborne,this coalition does not care what it
destroys,it cares not who it hurts.It will sacrifice entire species rather than contemplate the
slightest check on its own self interest.......All else can burn...... - 24 October 2012 12:53197450"Title: The Contemplative Sentry
Author: W. S. Gilbert.
When all night long a chap remains
On sentry-go, to chase monotony
He exercises of his brains,
That is, assuming that he's got any,
Though never nurtured in the lap
Of luxury, yet I admonish you,
I am an intellectual chap,
And think of things that would astonish you.
I often think it's comical
How Nature always does contrive
That every boy and every gal
That's born into the world alive
Is either a little Liberal,
Or else a little Conservative!
Fal lal la!
When in that house M.P.'s divide,
If they've a brain and cerebellum, too.
They're got to leave that brain outside.
And vote just as their leaders tell 'em to.
But then the prospect of a lot
Of statesmen, all in close proximity.
A-thinking for themselves, is what
No man can face with equanimity.
Then let's rejoice with loud Fal lal
That Nature wisely does contrive
That every boy and every gal
That's born into the world alive,
Is either a little Liberal,
Or else a little Conservative!
Fal lal la!
