Medieval Britton

I truly believed that civilization had moved on from medieval times, that life was valued above all else. Then I reached puberty,  I was at the miners demos in London, I stood against Shah on the picket lines in Warrington, I marched for peace, for fairness, for equality. I took a stand against Thatcher, Blair and all the others.
I then realised people matter nought to government, any government. Their minions lose all humanity for the sake of an employee of the week badge. Their masters reward cruelty and corruption,  their role of government solely to keep us in our place.
Democracy was always flawed, never fit for purpose. Now it’s not even a pretence.
If we do not fight and yes possibly bleed, for real change, the future will be devastating for those to come.
Freedom in Britain is already a fallacy, even the very basic rights such as right to life will soon be a distant memory, unless we all act now.
