Deja Vue
Friends and readers. Irony plays it’s part in all aspects of our lives and through out history. Let us look at an irony that you may be suprised with.
WHILE THE CRASH ONLY TOOK PLACE SIX MONTHS AGO I AM CONVINCED WE HAVE NOW PASSED THE WORST AND WITH CONTINUED UNITY OF EFFORT WE SHALL RAPIDLY RECOVER.
Now you may think and rightly say that’s some politician spouting off some crap a cival servant wrote last year some time. Yes it may well have been but believe it or not this statement was made by President Herbert Hoover on the 1st May 1930. Incredible as it may seem this appears to be similar to statements made by some of todays elected lot.
How ironic it is then that we hear similar knee jerk out bursts declaring the worst is over and we are sailing off into the sunset once again. Clearly there is an election is coming and our great and good are making hay with statements of blue skys ahead and vote for me please.
We are very much still teetering on the brink with promises of deep cuts in public expenditure from the Torries and no mercy with our present incumbents telling us cuts are needed but nice little ones which won’t cut to deep just draw a little blood.
Who do you believe toss of a coin perhaps, heads we lose tails we lose great choice hobsons no less. Praying seems to appeal as we listen to the same old same old as more punters get chucked on the dole queue and wages are forced down by the economic crimewave caused by the the financial guru’s that waved their magic wands and brought about an Alladins cave of despair and hopelessness.
Yet dear friends we at Pilton Sucks do not want to appear crest fallen and the barer of bad tidings so we offer this little ray of sunshine for you to ponder on. Imagine that, and it takes a vivid imagination a politician vanishes every time they lie to the voters, how many do you think would be left. Probably the ones wearing the pink bowler hats and high heels, but who knows one or two might just be of that persuasion, but think on dear friends an ordinary Joe voter having the power to make a politician vanish, would make voting a thing of the past but then again it’s just a thought, and choices we have to make. Who on earth would want to be a voter.
