MARCH:
Public money boosting privatised assets:
The 1980s brought with it the full blown nature of RWI. Revealing, at its heart, the self-serving, self-centred ethos of the few – delivering UK society into the clutches of global Capitalism. A situation which exists to this day, here and now, in the 3rd decade of the 21st century – as witness the interminable, ongoing exploitation of UK’s privatised, public services.
N.B. The sale price of UK’s public services was set so low by the then Tory Government, that within hours of being privatized, global investors pocketed huge profits.
That was over 40 years ago. Shareholders – foreign governments included, having since pocketed 100s of £billions more in dividends. Now, as well as illegally dumping tons of raw sewage into our rivers and seas, water companies are demanding £billions of public money to upgrade what, under private ownership, has become a neglected, underfunded water infrastructure.
‘WIN-WIN’, for Global Shareholders’ – ::: – ‘LOSE-LOSE,’ for UK’s Joe Public’ –
– so much for the RIGHT’S claim to supporting the millions of hardworking, UK taxpayers!
Time, all UKs’ public services were returned to public control. The 100s of £billions profit pocketed by the corporate world, redirected into UK’s public purse – helping support and maintain UK’s essential, public services.
APRIL:
The gross inequality Right-wing ideology hangs its hat on:
In allowing the business world to impose its demands on society’s work force, there is no doubt in my mind that, as embraced by the political wing of the corporate world, Right-wing ideology not only flies in the face of democracy, but is also at the heart of much of society’s social ills.
Indeed, while ever it is allowed a free hand, UK will remain trapped in the status quo of a bygone age, out of tune with the values, senses and morality of the modern, 21st century world.
The so called ‘free market’ is to freedom, what ‘shackles and harness’ is to beasts of burden:
Mainly fuelled and powered by the obscenely disparate and inordinate wealth of the few – far from being its saviour, the so called ‘free market’ has come to dominate 21st century society. And such will remain the case while ever society remains subjects to the self-seeking, self-serving edicts of Right-wing ideology.
An ideology designed, not only to channel the wealth created by the endeavours of the many, into the coffers of the few, but also to maintain the social and economic divide of a bygone age. I don’t know about you, but it’s certainly not the future I want my own progeny to inherit.
The restrictive doctrine of Right-wing Ideology:
There is so much more to be had from life than that provided by RWI. Indeed, rather than seeking to open up the exciting, life-enhancing possibilities of 21st century life, its effect is one of containment. As witness the restrictive lifestyle its doctrine delivers to the many, as opposed to that it delivers to the few.
Time, don’t you think, the personal identities of leading shareholders in UK’s public services were made public?
JUNE:
The gross inequality RWI hangs it hat on:
There is no doubt in my mind that, as embraced by the business world, RWI not only flies in the face of democracy, but is also at the heart of 21st centuries’ social ills. Indeed, while ever it is tolerated, UK society will continue to suffer the gross inequality such ideology hangs its hat on.
Time, UK society rejected the divisive hierarchy of a bygone age. Replacing it with something in keeping with the values, senses and morality of 21st century society. Where everyone’s talents and abilities are channelled into providing the best life has to offer to all prepared to fully engage with delivering social and economic fairness to 21st century society. Reining in and confining to history, the ill-gotten, inordinate gross advantages enjoyed by the few.
Advantages which, secured and imposed over centuries by the unfettered power of the few of the day, became compounded by the advent of Capitalism. Allowing the latter day few to maintain their grip and dominance into 21st century society. Aided – in no small way, it could be said – by the inherited, ‘acquired’ wealth of their ancestors.
Time for a long-awaited, more equitable society to emerge, and for more of UK’s wealth to be fed into the coffers of society and the pockets of the many. Failing this, all talk of ‘levelling up’ will amount to little more than empty rhetoric. Leaving RWI to continue delivering inordinate wealth into the pockets of the few. Forever maintaining a status quo locked a bygone age.
Millions, eternally trapped in the divisive cycle of life provided by Right Wing Ideology. Unable, even – to make first rung on the so called ‘ladder of success’.
For them, the ‘ladder of success’ – akin to the pot gold at the end of a rainbow.
SEPTEMBER:
UK society at crossroads:
Throughout the ages, societies have evolved in a manner broadly in line with the changing world around them. Likewise, UK’s age-old, divisive status quo having outlived its time, UK 21st century society now finds itself on the cusp of much needed change. Without which, all talk of ‘levelling up’ will remain little more than empty rhetoric. Allowing RWI to continue diverting inordinate wealth into the pockets of the few. Forever widening the wealth gap and maintaining the status quo of a bygone age.
Time, 21st century society moved on. Rejecting Right-wing ideology as allowing the few, not only inordinate control over the many, but also to utilise Capitalism to accumulate gross, personal wealth – as predicted by 19th century philosopher, Karl Marx*.
*Hence his vilification by the few’s marketing tool, the Right-wing press.
OCTOBER:
Spot the difference:
Based on a 46 hour week, a FTSE 100 CEO’s pay for just £1million/year works out as £494/hour.
For £4 million – it’s a mind blowing £1,976/hour.
Whereas, for the same hours, those paid the £10.42/hour living wage – it works out as little more than £21,000/year.
Which is about the same as the CEO is paid for little more than 10 hours!
DECEMBER:
It’s worth repeating:
It was around 1979 when post WW2, consensus politics took a cosmic lurch to the Right. The emerging politics of a fairer, more equal society, being replaced by a self-serving, self-seeking mentality reminiscent of the status quo of a bygone age. A divisive age. Driven by Right-wing ideology. Championed and nurtured by the Right-wing press. Controlled and administered by the few.
With no sense of the common good!!
Time is for change. For the many to shake off the shackles binding them to the past, and to take control of their future.
THAT! – or remain on a path grossly increasing the wealth of the few, off the backs of the many.
