YOUR HEALTH CARE--THEIR WEALTH SHARE!

Around 200 MP's and Lords have interests in

Health Companies. Source: Social Investigations.

There's numerous MP's and Lords,

Concerned with your healthcare;

Not in the altruistic sense,
But their financial share.

Of course they should declare such perks,

Whilst serving in the House;

But afterwards such stakes reward,

Their enterprising nous.

Directorships, consultant fees,

They're slices of the cake;

MP's 'earn' seventy-odd grand,

But still they're on the make!

Regarding the poor NHS,

It will be no surprise;

When all these enterprising folk,

Decide to privatise.

But it won't be an open book,

Done for the National Health;

Such privatising will be done,

Quite slyly and by stealth.
