Here are a few lines from McNish's "Mathematics":
I desperately want to scream
“Your maths is stuck in primary”
Cos one who comes here also spends
And one who comes here also lends
And some who comes here also tend
To set up work which employs them
And all your balance sheets and trends
Work with numbers not with men
And all your goddamn heated talk
Ignores the trade the Polish brought
Ignores the men they gave work to . . .
Thank you, Hollie McNish for SPEAKING OUT!
the YouTube version is found online at many locations (here is one) --
and the complete text of the poem may be found here.
