THE ESTABLISHMENT

Never trust the establishment
They do not exist for our benefit
For they believe  that we exist
For their convenience
Their only purpose is self-perpetuation
And they think that our only function
Is to accommodate that purpose
Whereas our true cause should be
To get rid of the b******s

Seems more relevant than ever with the Panama Papers

"Establishment"

One of those words that sit like a big, square-footed stone in the centre of your house, and festers...

[Phil Roberts]

very well said, Charlie.....and no-one invites them :/ Thanks as always, Charlie.

Well written, and it seems like there could be more. Could this become an essay?

[Phil Roberts]

hmmm, it's possible, when more of the Panama Papers have been revealed. It depends how angry I get :)

You've hit nail on the head Phil. It is a mystery why we are all sitting back and letting them screw us!
Well done!
Would you read my poem called 'Scotland's shame' on a similar theme.
Thanks, Alan

[Phil Roberts]

thank you, I'll do that :)
