No, I think we're saying that nothing politicians say ever has any resemblance to the truth, and that if any "New Labour" politicians had taken any real inspiration from the political side of the revival, we wouldn't today have a choice of three conservative parties irretrievably wedded to the exploitation that is capitalism, with luck Margaret Thatcher would be starving in a labour camp, we might have a welfare state or a national health service or a coal industry or viable farms and our media would not be owned by fascist colonisers.

Robert Marshall-Andrews excepted, of course.
