My ambition to be a writer has so far only resulted in three short stories. The muse is proving restive!
You can find my efforts here: together with synopses and an anonymous feedback form.
Enjoy!

The Tories' new 'educational' slogan "One Britain, One Nation," is disturbingly reminiscent of an older slogan: "Ein Volk, Ein Reich, Ein Führer" (one people, one realm, one leader)...

It HAS worked
The calculation is that, with the support of most of the media, the British public can be made angrier about innocent foreigners than guilty politicians responsible for thousands of British deaths.
And all while claiming to care about ‘Christian’ values.
It will work too.

The only explanation is that it was deliberate. Of all the churches available they went for one that had been visited by a Tory PM before. And one whose views can easily be found online because of the coverage that previous visit generated. It's another dog whistle to the right

You don't believe in democracy. You just believe in Brexit.

This is ridiculous, salaries are not calculated or indexed on commuting costs.
Also, if you are going down that road, working from home creates new costs for workers (extra use of energy and water, for example), are you going to consider that in your new pay scale?
