HERE is a poem I think sums up how we are all feeling about the cuts. It is called True Colours.
Broken promises, lies deceived Now the true colours are showing Of this Coalition Government And what it stands for So it can be no longer believed Cuts to the police force down to the bone Education know big changes Teaching find new ways Council services don’t escape Where the axe will fall But we all feel betrayed Now pledges made on NHS To prevent and protect Now face reform Gambling with patients’ lives No wonder we begin to realise Politics and politicians Are not to be trusted Especially now the dole queue Grows even longer MAUREEN HANMER, Dairy Ground, Kings Sutton
