God! you guys are not still on about "our side can deliver a better society" crap.

What is wrong with you? The system determines what sort of society we have, not the political parties!

Cant you read or understand what has just happened? the Capitalist financial system has collapsed and will keep collapsing until we become competitive again.
The system is no longer able to keep the population in a living standard which is acceptable.
We are about to be squeezed until the pips squeak,we will lose all sorts of freedoms and rights as people begin to realise what is actually happening to them and start to protest; and these protests will be violent, many will lose their lives, many will starve.

Dont allow that suffering to be in vain, please understand who the enemy is. Deep in your hearts many of you already know, but are unwilling to desert your long held beliefs. You have been told for so long that the opposing political party is the enemy....classic divide and conquer....but the enemy are those who pull the financial strings, they are apolitical, using left and right to play and win the long game.

In my lifetime, I have had to reassess my political ideas, right back to the bone. My left wing Utopia, a cherished goal as a young..and not so young man, I now realise is unattainable,given the present learned behaviour of humanity.

It will take generations to construct a workable and sustainable society.....but I have certainly realised that to have any chance of persuading others to lead a sustainable lifestyle, we have first to banish the Capitalist financial/social system to the dustbin of history.
That can never be achieved, while we tear ourselves to pieces over Party Politics. .....Ake.
