Listen to poem:

Be Careful With Your Vote

Just a cross in a box that's all that it took.
A vote for the Tories and they took everything i've got. 
My healthcare ,My doctors,My rosy outlook. 
The school that my kids went to and their free  lunch.
I'm left on the roadside,no roof over my head.
The stars are my spotlights, no leccy to pay.
As my rent and my rates they just kept going up.
Until one day the bailiffs came and took the lot out
The bankers and rich don't seem to mind. 
That 33% of the nations on the bread line.
The point of this poem is easy to see.
Don't put your x in a box when the candidates a Tory.
