By Paul Francis
You’re sitting comfortably? Then I’ll begin.
Our story’s of big business, what it needs
and how its operation is win-win.
We know that our economy succeeds
when regulation is cut back. Red tape
is like a boot upon the fragile neck
of business, which can make The Great Escape
if we remove all semblance of a check.
The profit trickles down, it’s plain to see,
to working families, who take an oath
of gratitude for all this bounty. We
proclaim a happy ending. Call it Growth.
This is a fairy tale no-one believes
except for one. I give you – Rachel Reeves!
