“Make the bonfire, make the bonfire, put the Tories on the top. Put the Blairites in the middle, and we’ll burn the fucking lot!”
An
admittedly rather droll chant from some leftists who went and wasted an afternoon protesting at the Tory conference on Sunday. I say wasted because now
that we are about to leave the EU, something which the left has wanted
from the beginning, we really should be discussing the Labour Movement's
post-Brexit aims.
What industries do we want to nationalise, as
part of what economic plan? Do we need to invest in further education
and technical universities, and if so, why are we investing millions in
third rate institutions that just turn out yet more members of the
social work industry or other parasitic local government wallahs?
People, the left were the bulk of the original Brexiteers, back when the Tories wanked
dementedly over the EEC, seeing it as a way to keep us under control.
We have freed ourselves from that: now it is time to free ourselves from an
economic system that only benefits the rich and their middle class
stooges.
Inane chanting outside the Tory conference is not helping to put together a coherent response to the new times, is it?
