One of the things which boils my blood the most about watching the Tories talk is when they joke. I was just watching the autumn statement, and I was struck by how angry I got when Osbourne tried to crack jokes about Labour. How can these bastards joke when they are causing so much suffering? It is as if they assume ownership of the discourse; an air of superiority in their ideas, as if their opinions are the only ones that count. They sneer condescendingly at those who want to raise taxes, who want to ensure the wealthiest in society contribute to helping those who need help. It is as if they assume their greed-based paradigm is the only valid one, and that they have a right to look down upon anyone with a less selfish worldview. Such arrogance, such selfishness, gets to me – perhaps more than it should. Yet when Labour try to show a bit of compassion, the tories laugh, and assume they have a right to look down. It feels like they are laughing at everyone they have taken benefits from, at every person they have driven to suicide. These fuckers have no right to laugh! They should be apologising and resigning; begging forgiveness for the suffering they have caused. Thus the sight of CaMoron and Osbourne laughing their empty heads off, filing their pockets while causing so much suffering, boils my blood, filling me with a rage like no other.
