“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.”

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.
