The Privileged Few

Those privileged to rule over us Have had a wonderful education From private schools to an Oxbridge education, many paid For by their parents, who paid For their child's education by Using offshore tax havens In the Caribbean, to save paying Income tax on their earnings. They can speak Latin, know Every Roman emperor, and Have a good grounding in The history of the British Empire. Therefore, they are deemed The intelligent elite whose destiny Is to grab political power using Newly acquired influence and rule. Yet, with all their education they Have no idea of the price of a Pint of milk or a loaf of bread. They lack compassion, or even a Grain of common sense, as we Can see of their mis management of The Covid pandemic, running the Economy, and their lack of action On saving the planet from the Ravages of climate change, as they Grant more drilling licences for the Extraction of even more fossil fuels To those oil companies who make Considerable donations to their Political party. They have neither Honesty, shame or honour. They are The privileged few.
