Sound of Drums:Les Miserable s.
I often look around at the country I come from, that is Wales: I recognise Englands need to subjugate my country and it's populace, but this does not mean I agree with it. Quite the opposite in fact; I am for the country of Wales to be Independant and our people with rights as free individuals. I have also noticed a rise in the employer that seems to think it only worthwhile to play with consumer, citizen rights etc., and not pay the consumer their wages. Also a lot of cases of slavery occurring amongst the general populaces. Terrifying trends I think. By imposing such slavery they are only in a position to make sure that nothing prospers.
