There is no love between us anymore.
"The left" mostly consists of sanctimonious narcissist who could bring themselves down from there ideological masturbation to put together some policies that would be thought workable by the ordinary person.Anything more left has appears to have about as much influence on things as me.

Some of you might not yet have seen what 'one 2 3' is up to (post #24).
He's either really like that, or far more likely, striving effortfully to 'be' 'like' 'that'

Milliband shouldnt be seeing the unions as a bad thing more why arent more people in one.
i'd love to join a union but being part time agency worker/outsourced cleaner nobodys intrested in me.
the best defence workers have is an effective modern union one that listens to its members and communicates so its a mass membership organisation.

Hardly getting over it.
A couple of things:
- He didn't "introduce" a lot of social welfare, his government adapted other parts of welfare and gave them knew names. Sure Start was just about the only bit of original thinking any of Blair's governments had.
- DLA was around before new Labour was even invented, you fucking know-nothing mug cunt. That's why new fucking Labour instituted the so-called "Benefits Integrity Project" in 2000 to "weed out scroungers".
- "Free nursery places" don't exist. They're subsidised.
- He won 3 elections because the opposition were an even worse proposition, not because "he must of [sic] been doing something right".

What if urban75 became a political party
To paraphrase Marx: "I wouldn't want to be a member of any party that would have me as a member".

And tax credits come from the Friedmanite idea of negative taxation (or whatever it's called). No self-respecting socialist would touch such an idea. Labour not being proper socialists were more than happy to embrace monetarism in 76 and once they tried it, they never lost their taste for it.

I read an article the other day suggesting Euan might be being lined up to run for Bob Ainsworth's pretty safe Coventry seat.

There have been a fair few stories like this over the past 2-3 years, plus stories about Straw the Younger (who at least is balls-deep in politics, even if it's nu-Labourish politics). Euan Blair tough, what the fuck has he done to deserve a seat, let alone a safe one?

I think my policy of 'no plant life except monkeypuzzle trees and venus fly traps and a final solution to the wasp question' is a nailed on vote winner.

Can I be shadow Minster for industrial relations.
My first policy idea is we shoot all HR managers.

indeed.
It's becoming increasingly obvious that all tax credits did was to allow big business to not increase their wages to enable their staff to live on the wages they get paid, which then helps them to undercut any businesses that actually paid a living wage so that they either have to shut down, or adopt the poverty wages + tax credits and housing benefit methods of big business in order to survive.
Meantime big business are making massive profits, and the differential between the wages of the common employees vs senior management and directors has got dramatically wider. Effectively it's the tax payer subsidising these profits, and performance bonuses and wage rises for those at the top.
Even Sure Start was lifted from an American policy (like so many other nulabour ideas) called Head Start that goes back to the sixties.

amusingly enough he might get more votes than the lib dems. That would make the whole thing bearable to me
