The death of the middle class? Good enough for them!

I posted yesterday about how Britain has become characterised by poverty and racism. The following is taken out of todays Huffington Post

Britain will be left with a "tiny elite and huge sprawling proletariat" who have no chance of "clawing their way out of a hand-to-mouth existence" in 30 years, a government adviser has warned.
David Boyle, a fellow at the New Economics Foundation think-tank, issued his stark warning as he predicted that rising property prices would effectively render the middle classes extinct as the dream of home ownership becomes ever more distant.

This post may seem a little harsh, but I can assure you I will not give a scintilla of sympathy to our disappearing middle classes, those that our political elite love to call the squeezed middle. The more they are squeezed the better. Why do I say this?

These are the people who cheered to the rooftops when Thatcher abolished council housing and privatised our council stock. These are the people who cheered to the rooftops when she forced the rents of council housing up by an average of 400%. These are the people who cheered when Thatcher waged war on the unions. These are the people who cheered when Thatcher destroyed our system of local government and forced all of their services to be privatised. These are the people who cheered when Thatcher destroyed the coal and steel industries. These are the people who cheered when Thatcher destroyed the miners and set the police on them to do whatever they liked. These are the people who embraced the free market neoliberal economic model and have voted continually for it for 30 years. These are the people who cheered who Thatcher and her successors privatised every public service and who bought the shares with the sole intention of selling them as quick as they could to immediately make a nice profit, thus leaving all of our public services in the hands of a few multinational gangsters who have ripped the rest of us off since. These are the people who cheered the privatisation of our transport, leaving us with the disaster that is our railway system and bus services that almost require a second mortgage to use them.

These are the people who jeered and mocked people like me when we warned them this day was coming. These are the people who now blame immigrants and Europe for the mess they deliberately created. These are the people whose greed and disregard for anyone else has brought them to this point. It is said that you reap what you sow, and the British middle classes sowed all the seeds of the mess we are in today. These are the people who still vote Tory or who are now switching to UKIP. These are the people who have the gall to tell us we are Better Together. These are the people who told me I was an idiot when I told them many years ago that a financial crisis was coming that was going to destroy this country. Don't waste your sympathy on such people. It is only when they suffer what they have inflicted on other people that any meaningful change will occur in this sorry country. I have continually told you in this blog that you get what you voted for. This is what these people voted for despite refusing to see what it was they were doing. If you have any sympathy direct it to the people who have been the victims of these people's greed and selfishness for the past 30 years, and to the people who are now being scapegoated for these people's stupidity. You have been warned.
