Dave's Cunning Plans - Ken Davidson - Bog

Dave's Cunning Plans tells the tale of the coalition government and their plans to rebuild the broken landscape of Britain. The man with the blueprint is of course our leader, 'Call Me Dave' Cameron. Dave has many plans, in fact, no area of your life will be left untouched by Dave's cunning, Dave has a plan for everything, well, perhaps not everything. Dave doesn't have much in the way of plan for elderly people or children in care, housing, transport or energy. And his plans for buzzards and badgers went south. In fact, Dave's plans are not that cunning either, his plans may be callous and thoughtless like those for welfare reform, or deceitful like his plans for the NHS or slothful like those on lobbying and tax dodging, or dysfunctional like his relationship with Europe, or confused like his 'greenest government ever' campaign, or worse, they may be totally non-existent like his economic plans. Note, this is not a critique of Dave or his Tory colleagues, rather it's a critique of liberal democracy, of the spivs and pin-stripped gangsters with their snouts in the Sambuca trough, of duplicitous politicians of all shades, of time wasters and time servers, of vulture capitalists feasting on the labour of others and primarily this is a critique of the arrogance of opinion spouters who assert "If you don't use your vote, then you've got nothing to say", people who never pause to explain how a cross on a ballot paper empowers anyone. More than anything this is a critique of policy failure across the whole of government, your cross on a ballot paper at the next election will not fix it.
