“Death paused.
YOU HAVE PERHAPS HEARD THE PHRASE, he said, THAT HELL IS OTHER PEOPLE?
‘Yes. Yes, of course.’
Death nodded.
IN TIME, he said, YOU WILL LEARN THAT IT IS WRONG.”

Of course people often don’t value them enough to pay for them but that is the argument that needs to be made

There’s an opportunity to tie this in with the budget. Want prisons, policing, the BBC, NHS, social care, transport, housing, councils to work?

You’re going to have to pay for them
