Follow The Money

First class lies are what we get from Politicians
when they insist that that should travel in luxury
as part of being seen to live well,
as they are the advert for their country.

The reality is that such luxury
 is a sign of the distance they like,
which in private they admit they need,
to keep away from the noise of those they lead.

They clearly fail to see how when these images
of being distant through travel go around the world,
others will misrepresent the country of their origin.

Thus our leaders become poster children for an immigration
they despise, because where the world poor see wealth abroad
they want to follow it, and will accept being pushed it's direction.
As it was, and is, in the way of all remittance economies....
