To my knowledge taxation is
ultimately meant to help the people, it’s meant to fund public services
such as health, education and infrastructure. This government is doing the
exact opposite; they are taking money from the poor to help fund the rich and privileged.
Vital components such as health and education is being cut and don’t even get
me started on the infrastructure in this country…. It’s a joke! The roads are
full of cracks and pot holes and there is some constantly repairing the gas and
water pipe because the companies are too incompetent and cheap to do it right
the first time and the so called public transport is becoming more and more
expensive with no improvement such as journey time or the frequency of the
service. How come there is no outrage??
For so many people travelling into London using the trains
are the only way to get into work, they have no other choice but to waste half
their wage packet on getting the outlandishly priced tickets. Isn’t the
government meant to stop this from happening? Government is meant to serve the
needs of the people, but they are just interest in getting their share of the
profits while the people suffer. The prices are so high that only the rich can
afford to get into London, but I highly doubt they would set a foot on public
transport, they have hired cars for their trips into London!
During the Olympics there were rumours that there were
people getting asked to leave, this was essentially the toffs way of ensuring
that the world will only see the pretty side of London so all the poor people
were asked to leave. They may not have succeeded then, but by raising the
ticket prices and cost of living annually while wages remain stagnate, it’s
only a matter of time when central London is merely for the privileged and
tourists.
