In Reply to J.K. Rowling

In the bleak mid Winter and ’twas the night before Christmas, in a fairy tale mansion in the deepest, coldest and frosty place known as Rowlingville. The Lady of the house was sat upon a throne of gold, platinum and be-decked with jewels so costly that if sold they could feed every child on the planet for a hundred years or more.
Known to everyone as J.K Rowling, or the author who invented the wizard, magic and fairytale world, before any other author in the history of books. Not. Original is not her forte, yet wealth in abundance she has made from the poorest in society. Books so original that J.R.R. Tolkein would be proud put his name to. Not.
Selling merchandise, that is manufactured and sold in shops of the poorest, even in Primark, and cheapest places, yet at prices beyond extortionate. Money beyond most others imagination, and reach, yet she started out as unemployed, claiming state benefits. Now the mere mention of poor people and she explodes with indifference towards poor people as if they should not exist.
Sat on her throne, she sneers and jeers at the vulnerable, and even more so at the one person who stands up for the poor and needy. Jeremy Corbyn is not a fictional character in a kids book, even if he was he would not be in a child imagined book of the quality of Potter and co. You see jeremy Corbyn does not live in one of J.K. Rowlings fantasy worlds, he lives in the real world.
You know dearest, and dearest is what your merchandise of low cost manufacture costs, dearest J.K. Rowling your world is not only rich, elitist and full of money and food, but it is also a fantasy world. Fantasy is your life and your game, along with your other elitist wealthy friends, so called celebrities.
In the real world of politics, and poor people, homeless and poverty is rife. In a real world we need real politicians, not pantomime jokers, back end of the horse actors. Real world is where people that die do not return as a spirit, or other mythical being in fantasy minds of childish authors.
In reality, as in UK of 2018 and the past decade or so, real people have suffered at the hands of a political myth called Austerity. Yes, that is why you believe in it, because myth is unreal, is fantasy. That suits the imagination of a child like mind, cover ones eyes and no one can see me. You cannot see us, or you choose ignorance over caring.
Then along comes a kind, considerate and compassionate human being, of the real kind. Not your fantasy wizard character, magic wand and all that originality. Ha ha ha. When Jeremy Corbyn talks he talks reality, to real people, about real life essential policies. That goes against the grain of money and land owning pretend royalty like yourself.
Real life is men and women dying prematurely on the streets of the 5th richest country in the world. Where families with children are homeless, living with no income, relying on charitable foodbanks for the basic reality and need of food. Where disabled and vulnerable are treated like animals, by the people you either promote or represent. In other words, you condone and are guilty of the lack of basic rights for 14 million people.
Now you sit on your throne, drinking expensive liqueur or wines, and in absolute denial of reality, write atrocious bile to hurt or try inflame the poorest to fight and turn against eachother. You are a failing person, and you are failing at this attempt to cause more pain and suffering.
We the poor, vulnerable and disabled in society are in our millions, and we stand together in unison and solidarity with Jeremy Corbyn, because he speaks for and about us all. The only thing you can count in millions is your wealth, your immediate close circle of comfort is about as small a cult and elitist of standing, that you could not fill a three wheel car.
So back to reality, we want politicians to be real, talk about reality and care for real people in society. Those of most need. not those of most greed. We do not even want all of your money, you can all still be greedy and nasty and live in your own little fantasy worlds, see we even don’t want cause you any harm. That is the reality.
You can stay in your mansions and ivory towers, while us as real people just want a roof over our heads that is waterproof and keeps the cold out. We only NEED enough money to live on, and enough food to feed our families with adequate amounts to fill our empty stomachs, not bloat on riches like you.
Whatever happens regarding Brexit, it neither caused the Conservative manufactured Austerity, nor the aftermath of a tory government that only cares for the likes of you. Yet you claim be on the side of Labour, yes the mythical Labour, with its coat of many colours, mostly all in the range of blue.
We are where we are right now, in reality. You keep fantasy in your head, and write child aged appropriate stories by all means. Rip off the poorest, and claim be a defender and champion of us, we know the truth. There will always be those that will be rich but they do not have to act like Lords and Masters. They can be philanthropic, caring, and want a fair and equal society for all.
With no due respect, breathing fire and brimstone, making serious and unfactual allegations against a man and the people he cares for, is below contempt. It makes you sound bitter, twisted, elitist and cruel. If that has been your intention, congratulations your majesty, you have achieved it. Thanks for not reading this.

Life

Without a future there is no life
Without a life there is no future

Goodbye To Christmas

Say goodbye to Christmas
Christmas has left my life
There is no real Santa Clause
Nor Mrs. Clause the wife
More fear and hurting happens
This time of year unknowing
All the lights and decorations
Hides pain that goes un-showing
Alone in fear and feel worthless
So not a merry Christmas to all
So not the birth of our saviour
To some it’s dying that’s preferable

A Christmas Too Far

On December 25th 1985, I woke up to my first Christmas Day without my Dad. I was 15, and less than 8 months earlier in May 1985, he passed away suddenly. Now December 25th 2018, if I wake up, it will be the first Christmas day without my Grandson. Since May 2018, he has been absent from my life due to the cruel intentions of my so called Son and his wife. Now I cannot remove that date out of my life, but I can remove my life from that date.

Goodbye Lord Sugar

Goodbye Lord Alan M Sugar
Well you’re a bit of a bugger
So I see you pay your taxes
While all your family relaxes
Your wealth has gone to your head
His Lordship’s just a Tory red
While people die on the street
Hard workers are shit on your feet
Your roots forgotten and lost
Your friends are kept at a cost
If you leave that is your decision
It is not about your religion
We’d all like to say you’re fired
Your humanity must have expired
So no more passing the blame
You’ve used up your moment of fame

Oh, Shut Up Tony Blair

Oh please Tony Blair
Your wars were unfair
We just do not care
The words that you share
New Labour no more
Get off the dancefloor
Behind you close the door
Your words are a bore
Corbyn’s our man
Where May can’t he can
You’re just a tory fan
You can drive her removal van

Poverty, Homelessness And Deaths On Our Streets, All As Important As Brexit.

Brexit Blinkered Crisis

Brexit? Never heard of it. Well I can dream can’t I? Ok so it is very important, not only to us as individual citizens of the UK, but to business too. It does need sorting out, make it work for everyone. Failure to do so is in nobody’s best interest. Don’t let’s kid ourselves though that this is the only and most important political issue that is happening to the UK right now. Brexit is blinkering everyone who is concerned soley with it, than the issues already going on in the UK, from before we ever went down the Brexit road.

Let’s face facts, neither the EU nor Brexit is the cause of social discord or anger from the supporters of the Jeremy Corbyn lead Labour Party. Their valid reason for standing up and talking about issues other than Brexit are totally reasonable and understandable. Poverty, homelessness, Universal Credit, low paid jobs, zero hour contracts and more, are here because of our own Government in place right now. The Conservative Government, and partially I have to agree, the neo-liberal right sided Labour MP’s.

Also it is reasonable to see in social media that celebrity status holding people, who themselves live quite reasonably wealthy lifestyles, are blinkered too. We are Labour supporters they cry, yet not Labour under Mr. Corbyn. Then they go on a righteous rampage of why he is not suitable for Prime Minister, let alone Labour leader. Blinkered to the real world around them, they live in cosseted bubbles, enough money and food and can afford pay their bills. Real life poverty and homelessness is as fiction to them as the characters they portray in their celebrity world, being well paid to do so. Take off the blinkers celebrities, real people are dying, going hungry, living on the street, all because you think supporting Jeremy Corbyn is wrong for your own selfish reasons. If you support Labour, you should be supporting it’s very cause, to tackle these social issues of deprivation and hardship, not self serve your own fame.

Then we have Main Stream Media, particularly BBC and newspapers of dubious right wing leaning, strangling democracy at every opportunity. Press and TV millionaires, and some billionaires, who are as far away from real people and their struggles as Jupiter is away from Earth. We know this from history, media and press usually side with power, yet this time they are deciding the power and rules too. Do not listen to rich and famous TV personalities saying we are all going to be OK, or we all in this together. Their together is only themselves and their elite wealthy backers. The WE are us the real people, society, we are in this together. We are struggling, we are weakening, but we should stand up together and fight back.

The reasons, excuses and lies too thrown at Jeremy Corbyn and Labour as to why we should not vote them in are a total fabrication of falsehoods. I am not going to say there is no bad people in the party, I am not going to say it is squeaky clean on racism, religous tolerance or other issues that I totally agree should be rooted out. In fact I believe it should be rooted out not only by Labour from an internal perspective, but using external authorities too, as a matter of transparency. This should be done as a priority, but it can also be done alongside the Labour Party getting into power. If you truly believe in the cause of looking after the many and not the few, that should be your aim.

If we are going to believe we can only rid the Labour Party of bad whilst only in opposition, or under another leader, then that is a huge misapprehension. It is also lethal to the people of the UK to allow the Conservatives to destroy the country because of this.

Remember them that are without sin? The Tories are not squeaky clean, and further away from clean itself than Labour could ever be accused of. DWP crimes against humanity, the Windrush scandal, Grenfell still ongoing. That is only recent pain caused by the Tories, lest we forget Hillsborough, Orgreave and many more from the 1980’s and beyond. Racism is rife more so in the Tory Party, as are other forms of discrimination. Remember they are closer to UKIP, BNP and other right wing thinking fascists and racists than you think.

So a little bit of perspective please, yes Brexit is extremely important. Get it sorted please for the sake of everyone, but don’t do it at the expense or ignorace of other failings. Poverty and the human misery of UK citizens is very real, it is more important to us all as individuals than Brexit, yes I will say that. We recently had a UN report by Philip Alston OHCHR Special Rapporteur on extreme poverty and human rights. In it he describes the issues of people and families living daily under this Government, who he also adds are not concerned about these issues, or ignore there existance. Nice to know our own Government are not concerning themselves about us, the voters, the electorate that put them into their seats. Yet the ones that are concerned, mostly Labour and expecially under the leadership of Jeremy Corbyn, are not given a fair hearing. They, and I will say myself too, as a Labour supporter and member, believe in the equality and fairness for all in society. Let’s stand together, fight this together and make a better UK, Britain for the many and not the few.

Thank you.

Darren Sunderland.
