Les, I'm sorry to disappoint you, but you didn't replace Thatcherism in 1997. If it's a long battle, we're losing as badly now as in 1986. And if you you think Blair and New Labour are on your side, you are probably on the wrong side.

You'll probably respond with something about the most redistributive government since Wat Tyler, but I don't think a combination of smoke, mirrors, bread and big brother makes for a sustainable society.
