“Stop the Groats”
“It’s fun to be a politician,
To sail the Moral-Bankrup Sea.
When your Age of Entitlement is over
You can bet your balls it aint for me.
It’s great to wallow in d’Nile
About your plebs reality –
Guess who’s paying for our pensions
While we paddle in Diplomer Sea.”
(AR, been back to sniff yesterday’s Media Briefs?)
And the point is that the profits will NOT “come back” ie ‘repatriated’ to be taxed – to build ‘civilisation’ in O W Holmes’ formulation.
They will be spent, when O/S, via card and nary a hospital nor school will be tarnished with the ill begotten, filthy lucre.
