21. I'd say the Labour party is the Labour Party of old
Edited on Sun Nov-12-06 04:20 AM by TheBaldyMan
Blair has installed a Presidential office at the top of the party but the grass roots are the same. Totally ignored by No.10 and mightily pissed off.

The crazy thing is; the tories only won their last election because of ballot box stuffing thanks to the poll tax. Labour would have won anyway because we were all so sick of the tories. Tony surfed that wave claiming it was his progressive (aka thatcherite) policies and spin that won it finally.

He continues to do that today, little realising that he is despised because he has exactly the same policies as the tories.

We want an alternative, this can only come about with the removal of Blair and his lackeys with an accompanying change of policy. Real traditional socialist Labour policy. It's 25 years overdue.

Our social institutions are being dismantled to pay for corporate welfare. It will continue until the poodle is re-homed.
