CTR? Do people still say that?
It'll happen. You can't sustain 3% year on year growth forever. Eventually we'll run out of markets to exploit or collapse through vast ecological disaster. Then it'll be strange fruit time for the politicians and bankers.

Just the politicians and bankers?
Well if they ain't in Labour or the SWP what are these mythical lefties doing then? Posting on Internet bulletin boards about how unfair it all is and how much better they'd do and organising a revolution that no one fucking wants.They did not.
So, people who don't vote are lazy tories???
Who cares? What has that got to do with anything? Oh I see, in your head anyone who doesn't vote rightwing must be in the SWP??
Cos actually the rest of the country and world knows that wealth, standard of living, healthcare, science and technology are much fucking higher now than they've ever been under comunism.
Do the people on your street want a revolution? Course they fucking don't just like they don't want the SWP or any real left wing Goverment.

Support New Labou. So not actually left wing at all then.

Wonder why it's not being suggested that we get rid of public funding for the NHS and just have "volunteer" surgeons - I did a first aid course in 1998: I'm sure I could turn my hand to it and it's just arrogant left wingers stopping me.
On the other hand, remove public funding from my local library: ask for volunteers instead to run it - don't get enough volunteers? (perhaps because some people have - gasp - JOBS)? Simple, the people mustn't really WANT a public library, so close it down altogether.

All trade union members support New Labour, this is what you're saying? Did I mention that you're an idiot? Have you been drinking today or something? You're not normally this stupid.

Hardly getting over it.
That's not a fact, it's a fantasy, Only around half the population are actually entitled to vote, and of them only a nationwide average of about 70% voted, and only about 58% of them voted Con or Lib.
I very much doubt you can consider them all to be far left.
I mean there isn't even a left wing political party there is so little support. Fuck knows about the SWP, any normal person knows that's for students only who will grow out of it by the time they get a mortgage. Jesus Christ they seem to spend most of the time arguing with other unknown groups on the left or organising rallys against EDL (who are so fucking irrelevant even googling the letters doesn't bring up who they are or what they believe).
What would the SWP do in power then
Who knows, and who cares?

If Edie is on her usual form, she'll claim that she was trolling.

Why would anyone even vaguely left-leaning be in Labour?
And that, as they say, is the problem. There's no representative mass movement for the working classes anymore (if there ever really was and Labour wasn't just reformist appeasement).
What have you done for the communities you've lived in, Edie? I ask because most socialists, communists and other "lefties" I know do quite a bit for their local communities, from keeping an eye on elderly neighbours and running tenants associations to sitting on school governing boards and various local govt bodies in order to ensure representation for their community.
That'd be why Communist Cuba has a higher literacy rate and more doctors per head of population than the US, as well as free healthcare, wouldn't it?
Give it a few years.

folks on mine would settle for some decent pay and not having to drive the kids to school cos of no busses.
Flash git on the other side of the road probably doesn't want a revolution but then he has been remarkably less flash and abusive to other residents since some hero sacked his home. I lolled. the cunt.

Why are they ready with their guns and flags right now?
Most community work I see is done by Christians and other religious people. Baptists actually, they seem to do loads. If you think community work is running a squat or throwing a free party then maybe your right.
