Militarisation is a lie and deceptive illusion and it cheats the masses

Lying to Ourselves is the Cardinal Sin and the Ultimate Act of Self Harm
Trust is Foundational to What it Means to be Human
To prioritise the military over human well-being is a crime against people everywhere.
Unlike the untrustworthy and self-centered political leaders (here today, gone tomorrow), the common men and women of this country with high moral compass, know that true security is defined not just by borders, but by access to healthcare, education, efficient and fairly priced public transport, affordable housing, clean and safe drinking water and clean air to breathe, as well as reverence for Mother Earth, in the recognition that we are deeply interconnected with the planet that sustains us, to name but a few.
They also know that security flourishes when there is a sense of economic justice and fairness, not when their governments lead an economic policy of socialism for the 1% and capitalism for the rest. Moreover, they also know that it is an act of folly and a clear sign of amorality to drastically increase military expenditure when the UK’s families are getting poorer, with record numbers of people classed as in “very deep poverty”—meaning their annual household incomes fail to cover the cost of food, energy bills and clothing, and more—and when many of the country’s future leaders, today’s children, are lonely, anxious, depressed, isolated, hungry, neglected, and at risk.
