This last year £400 of your tax has been given back to your household to help with your electricity bill. You have given that money to your power company. Your power company has then made a profit and given some of that back to its shareholders. Anyway, you look at your tax money is being given to the shareholders of power companies. Capitalism no longer functions. One could argue that once costs and r and d are paid for every penny of government support should be paid back to the treasury before shareholders. One could also make a strong case for everyone to be a shareholder in a power company. The resources they exploit come from our earth. The damage they do affects us all.

A divergent thinker - apparently much in demand in the workplace today. Sadly no one told my English teachers; I don't think dyslexia had been invented. Now I create, produce and direct content and TV formats worldwide; I also lecture on the media, creativity and TV production. I am a visiting lecturer at the University of Creative Arts.
