Wow! What can one say? I'm shocked! I have never seen anything like this in my country before. But, on second thoughts, one can say the following: Far too much privilege, ostentation and wealth on display in the face of abject poverty and suffering for so many. It's a case of billions for the few, but crumbs for the many. Diamonds, emeralds and rubies for the super-privileged few and foodbanks, tents and sleeping bags for the seriously underprivileged.
History tells us much about outcomes in such scenarios. Those in the Establishment need to put their thinking caps on! The successful government of tomorrow will not be the one that takes a man's right to smoke a cigarette away; rather, it will be the government that brings prosperity to the many. – © Mark Alexander
