Austerity Games on Hackney Marshes

Hackney Marshes, London. Mon 23 Jul 2012
 
 The bankers used a small step in the first round of the Property High Jump

 While others tried to get over the bar of high rents the hard way

 

 

 When the bar was raised a couple of helpers lifted it for the banker and replaced it after his 'jump'

 Rents in London are now ridiculously high, with even single grotty rooms costing around the total minimum wage

 Prospective students found the Student Debt Weightlifting heavy going - and higher degrees often impossible

  Though the banker didn't need to lift anything as daddy could pay for it all
        
There were some athletes who gained several medais 

 

 

And for the 'Toss a Tory (Shotput)' a banker grabbed all of the medals probably because the Tories are tossers 

If you are a banker you don't need to jump over the hurdles.
The loss of EMAP, high tutiton fees, excessive housing costs and the rest are not a problem for you.
