Given that this country of ours is supposed to be a Democracy, you could be forgiven for thinking that Democracy and Free Will are one in the same.
Why? Well in a vague way the two are linked because we are free to exercise our wills at the ballot box, but there it ends and we have sold our souls to false promises!!
The PM is using Democracy to destroy Democracy and replacing it with Privatisation.
Libertarianism is a whole new ball game because the ‘free will’ it talks about is not free will for us, the public, but free will for big conglomerates. Free of government interference, free of regulations, including Employment regulations.
Deregulation is another new game in town! The big boys make their own rules within these Freeports and Economic Zones and it’s a race to the bottom.
Once these zones have been set up, in spite of what may have been promised, local Councils are shut out, only functioning at arm’s length and the size of these zones can cover land far beyond any port, one in England covering 78mls in length, even the Forth one covers approximately 48mls including half of Edinburgh!……lets see how that works out!
But it is the secrecy around these zones that should concern us all, and set alarm bells ringing, even local Councillors are kept in the dark, they are only shown the ‘sales pack’…..but that’s politics is it not? We all get sold a ‘pup’ and a pup it remains.
Who would have thought that our very own SNP government would sell off bits of Scotland to foreign companies to the detriment of local people, and when I say ‘sell off’ I mean it, for that land has gone for 20-25yrs and for 20-25yrs that particular LA will struggle to fill the black hole of tax losses that pay for our services.
How could any FM past or present do this to Scotland?
How could any FM think it morally right to encourage
low-wage jobs to help big business profits? ….many would call it ‘modern slavery’!
What do we tell the people in Cairnryan, if because of increased traffic and the size of vehicles these big companies deem the road through the village to be too narrow [which it is] and needs to be widened thus bringing in compulsory buying orders for their homes?
What has happened to us that we allow this?
Why is there only one organization [Freeports community, Salvo] & one Political Party [ISP] fighting for Scotland’s land?
When will we rise up like the European farmers?
‘Free will’ it is…..but only for the few!
