Port
Talbot is dying. Tinsel Town is on the edge. And we have as its MP
a high priest of neo-liberalism. I watched Stephen Kinnock at a
hustings meeting last April make the claim that he and only he had
the experience and knowledge to attract the large multinational
companies to the area. He had the contacts, the experience, the
finesse to do so.
Stephen
Kinnock is of the political elite, he worships at the shrine of
globalisation, yet he can do nothing to help the ordinary people of
the Sandfields and the surrounding area of Port Talbot and Neath.
Yet it is Stephen Kinnock and his ilk who have promoted the values of
free trade of globalisation. This is why the death of Port Talbot
and its Steel works becomes inevitable and there becomes nothing that
such a representative can do, his world view, his outlook and his
beliefs prevent it. Stephen Kinnock and his globalist followers
have created a world where 62 people have the same wealth as the
bottom 3.5 billion where the top 1% own more wealth than the other
99%.
For
many years the old Port Talbot Borough Council did nothing to hold
the Steel Industry accountable for the pollution of the area. Of
Steel towns around the world Port Talbot was one of the most polluted
and the dominant family that controlled the council had neither the
ability or the understanding or courage to challenge and raise the
issues required and the actions necessary. I remember seeing on the
window sills and in the classrooms of the schools, the rows of
inhalers.......We need politicians that are anti globalist, that
promote local businesses and suppliers, that understand that that if
each small and medium business took on more workers we would have
stable more sustainable communities. Politicians who understand that we
must stand up to the large multi nationals that imprison, control and
hypnotise us. Politicians that do not use the migrant crisis to hide
their real intentions. Politicians who build united communities that
are inclusive, tolerant and freethinking.
Then
we have the coming of Stephen Kinnock and his accolites, the voting
figures drop, the communities wilter, we have the rise of austerity
and then we have the Pied pipers of UKIP calling for us to leave the
European Union. Leaving Europe will speed up the decline of the Steel
Industry. However bad Europe is, the North Atlantic Free Trade
association is worse.
Outside
of Europe, we will have no environmental protection. Workers rights
will be less and all of us will be more at risk more vulnerable.
Ukip is leading those who will be most damaged most exploited away
from the limited protection that we have. The recent debate between
Carwyn Jones and Nigel Farage showed the gap between the political
elite and ordinary people. Nigel Forage's background is a Public
School Educated Stockbroker from a Tory Southern English background
he has nothing to offer the people of Neath and Port Talbot except
the whiff of Weimar..........enjoy your frothier coffee machine Mr
Kinnock.http://www.mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news/mp-stephen-kinnock-put-milk-7181987#ICID=sharebar_facebook
