Britain Gone Wrong

In one of the local Blogs I can across this song written back in 1985 and found it's haunting message the same as the plight many today. It just sums up where we are at and how many feel about the life in Britain for the poor now.

The common link is of a Conservative Government cutting away at basic public services, giving to the rich and taking away from those in need. You just have to read the lyrics of the sing to understand the similarities between then and now:

This is Breadline Britain
This free and promised land
Where the rich don't give a damn
Poeple getting hungry and people getting poor
People getting destitute and more
This is Breadline Britain

Oh you've got to understand
Where evil's in command
Where money buys onli pipedreams
and a worker's life is damned
Democracy and freedom are a
Far off foreign land.

Where the sick don't stand a chance
Where fascism leads a new dance
Where they'd privatise your mother
If given half a chance
This is Breadline Britain
You've got to make a stand

Breadline, breadline, breadline Britain
Breadline breadline, breadline Britain
This free and promised land

Just is in the nineteen eighties people are being push into poverty and forgotten. Even middle Britain are being made to pay for the mistakes of the past this time caused by the greed of the banking system. The only people that seem to be suffering less pain are the rich and the bankers and company directors with their huge bonus

What Britain needs now is a Government that listens to the people and that is ready to make society fairer. What we don't need is a Government ruled by the rich and greedy that wants to take control and erode our rights to privacy and employment. It is time for change.
