Growing up in the late 90s I was told I should be grateful for the struggles my people have undergone to ensure my freedom. I’ve always found this to be fabricated as we cannot deny the struggle our forefathers endured but the illusion we are now free is plainly false. As a people we are enslaved by the have’s, instead of using chains &whips its now done by unfair taxing, national deficits & unfair distribution of wealth.
We are penalised if we miss taxes yet multimillion pound corporations evade billions in taxes due to the connections they hold with the so call leaders (politicians). We have more food banks being openned to service the people who cannot afford to feed their family which the Politicians tells us is a good thing, we are in the age of deep seeded urban decay. They subject us to a rise in zero hour contract providing no stability or job security as the companies now have the power to fire workers without reason. We are living in an Orwellian world where 1984 doesn’t seem as far fetched as it did on release. We are constantly under surveillance and scrutiny, emails being hacked and no regards for the safety of the poor. Not to mention we are constantly being dragged into wars for profit, while our sons and daughters are slaughtered in the theatre of war, politicians and opportunist rub their hands at the profits being made, whether its oil or other natural resources.
What will it take to get true freedom? Freedom is demanded and taken not given. The people profitting from the current system do not want a change, they do not want wealth to be distributed equally. The powers that be will never take us serious until we affect their revenue. We are fed lies on a daily basis by the mass media convincing us austerity is good and its the mass populations fault for the sorry state of this economy. We are constantly subjected to benefit cuts and tax rises while the bankers are paid million pound bonuses for losing tax payers money in iffy investments that only benefits the 1%

ITS TIME TO TAKE A STAND
I support all that oppose austerity and support better pay to match the cost of living and making these bankers take full responsibility for the sorry state they have left the country in through back door dealings and terrible investments then demanding to be bailed out by the tax payer. I believe we can change the way thing are done. As the majority we have the power to make a change, its obvious the politicians have no interest in raising the standard of living for the working class. They make empty promises whenever election time comes around, and like the mindless sheep we are we eat it up and vote for these criminals as if they will actually make changes to our living conditions.
We need to educate ourselves on the common lies fed to us to keep us divided and hating our fellow men which are in the same situations as ourselves. Studies from UCL shows the net contribution immigration makes in taxes is 4.96bn more than what is taken out in public services and UKIP tells you immigration is the reason why the economy is in a bad state. The state of the economy has nothing to do with multinational companies like starbucks with sales of 400mil but not a penny in corporation taxes. If a small UK business was to do that they would be sent court summons and face prosecution for tax invasions. Now tell me David Cameron is looking out for the small business owners.
We need to stand up for what we believe in and not be easily swayed by Mr Cameron and his fellow suit wearing crooks.
Freedom isn’t free… dont expect to get your desired result without hard work.
Nothing is given.
Its a competitive world for less fortunate people spending all your time while earning a pittance. They over hiking the prices, we pay an arm and leg for basics while our leaders live lavish and are flown around on tax payers money. The day our leaders have to survive on minimum wage is the day they will understand what people like ourselves go through on a daily basis and that might make a difference to the policies that are put through, not in corporate interests but in the greater good of the less fortunate.
I hope you enjoyed the read. To those who may feel strongly about this topic I understand your struggle.
