Up the revolution! is not the answer Jim.
It will be a slow learning curve if we ever make a start, but smearing and demonising our fellow citizens because they have an alternative view at present, only delays progress.

Just look at Steve's latest rant, "You're a Tory because you think the unemployed, the sick, the disabled and the poor need to be shat on, that the trade unions should be emasculated, that workers' rights should be abolished (roll out the euphemisms such as "the flexible labour market"), that the NHS should be privatised for profit and that working people are there to make profits for people who are already much richer than they are. You are a Tory because you think that housing benefits should be cut for the poorest people, that it isn't important to build affordable homes and that private landlords should have free rein to do whatever they like. You're a Tory if you handle non-doms, tax evaders and bankers with a very light and indulgent touch. You're a Tory if you believe that it was right for the poorest to suffer most under austerity for almost a decade whilst the richest were left alone. Does it have to be that way? Well what do you suggest we do to change it?"
Do you think he really means that...that all conservatives are evil beasts, do you think he understands that in this economic system if wealth is not created society dies?
There is nothing fair or egalitarian about corporate capitalism, but at least the conservatives attempt to run it efficiently.
When the centre left were last in power they spent all the money and ran for cover, leaving a heap of shit behind.

The capitalist system is finished in the developed West, that is how the system works it moves on to greener pastures.....but who clings on hardest to the illusion? The "liberal" left.
