Four quatrains inspired by The People vs PFI conference on 1 November 2014:
I
PPP is Public-Private
Partnership – but how?
The same way steak’s a partnership
Of a butcher and a cow.
II
PFI is Private Finance
Initiative, but still there’s
One more thing that it stands for:
Profiting From Illness
III
Very little criminal corruption
Goes on in PFI
Look how much they legally plunder –
You’ll see the reason why
IV
Get cash quick, pay back much more
For years, decades or longer
In PFI the rate’s so high
It may as well be Wonga
