Here’s a recently published article that discusses issues (pensions, house prices and austerity) that rarely get analysed properly in the mainstream media. I hope you enjoy it. Money myths that make most poorer.

Our âTheirâ UK Government is clearly incompetent, too ideologically obsessed with cutting regulations and implementing muddle-headed, âbalance the booksâ austerity to care for us peeps.
That much we know after Grenfell Tower fire burnt down the last remaining veil hiding the Tories’ duplicity and selfishness. The exact number of dead in that fire is probably well into triple figures – but donât expect a realistic death toll until the heat of the summer is long past. Tempers might combust and the establishment donât want their stage-managed democracy torched by the angry masses.
But I digress: up and down the country most people can increasingly smell the stink of this Tory Governmentâs rotting corpse. With every passing week the stench gets stronger. Even the DUPâs futile attempt to give it the kiss of life wonât revive it.
What is especially shocking is that this Zombie Government cares more for the dead than the living. Theresaâs Mayâs wet dream would be the death of Corbyn. I imagine sheâd happily splurge on a state funeral if it meant her failing grip on the cliff edge of power became a little tighter. She might not be alone in twisting and turning in orgasmic delight at such a fantasy – but Boris doesnât kiss and tell in public.
How do I justify that statement? Well, first Iâd cite the âfactâ that I believe it to be true. Okay, thatâs too weak – though I think you may believe it also.
Secondly, theyâre doing little to prevent pollution from diesel vehicles that is sending many to an early grave and damaging the lungs of children.
Lastly, what else can explain the fact that, while âąthousands are injured and many killed in road accidents every year caused by driver fatigue and inattention, âourâ Government is doing little to encourage the adoption of technology that could drastically reduce those numbers.
Yes, thatâs right. The technology to warn drivers when theyâre falling asleep at the wheel or distracted (for example, by using a mobile) exists.
Yet the Government does nothing to encourage its adoption: it doesnât test it or mandate it on UK roads.
Noblesse ought to oblige the Government to do the decent thing but this mob in power donât give a fig for the living.
âą According to figures from the Department of Transport, in 2015, driver distraction was cited as a factor in 2,920 crashes, which resulted in 61 fatalities and 384 serious injuries. Similarly, driver fatigue was a contributory factor in 1,784 car accidents in 2015, resulting in 58 fatalities and 331 serious injuries.
