        The song's story - why it was written - is very interesting.

          It doesn't make the Tory worshippers change their mind, so why would it work on anyone else?

          Cameron will stay on as leader after the referendum? Maybe not
          May will not hold a snap general election? No
          May says Corbyn will be PM if she loses just 6 seats? No
          More council houses? Cancelled
          "Dementia tax"? Nope
          National Insurance increase?
          Taking in 3,000 refugee children? That was stopped by Murdoch
          Foreign Workers quote?
          Energy price caps? Wasn't that a Labour one which was mocked by the Tories, then adopted by them?
          Selling UK infrastructure to foreign companies? Doesn't count if it's the National Grid.

          Need I go on about the lies being spread by May/Murdoch?

                That's because when you're poor, you can see the merits of wealth distribution. When you're reasonably wealthy, mammon isn't quite so evil.
                1 - So am I. It's their money, they earned it. I don't need it, so I'd only waste it if I'm honest.
                2 - Alternatively, when you're poor, you want what someone else has earned. When you're rich, you don't want anyone else to have what you have earned.

                  You're are going to see more stories like that after Brexit.

                    3 - You don't mind helping people out, whether related to you or not, but they must have some "Get up and go" or be children who need a chance. Lots of charitable foundations are historical found on this principle.
