So i was scrolling through facebook last night and one of my friends posted this up:
there's no magic money tree to support those dying on our streets, to help students who can't afford to eat, to help young businesses function, feed starving mothers, fathers and children. but we can muster up a modest "maybe £40m" to restore a clock that i highly doubt anybody in the 21st century relies on to tell the time.
the government we didn't vote for holds no care in their hearts for the people in need in this country.
the conservative approach is killing the humanity in our society. don't appease the facist tory/republican regime. we will not stand for this.
What are your thoughts on this?
Edit: i will post my opinion on this matter once we hit trending.

40 million is pocket change in the grand scheme of things. Over £50 billion is going towards the building of HS2, a train that will take HALF AN HOUR off the journey from Manchester to London. That's what people should be outraged over. To be fair though, there is a difference between borrowing money for infrastructure, and the cash the government has to spend day-to-day. But they managed to find £1bn to bribe the DUP, so they still have a problem over their priorities.
