The trouble with your thinking Jim is this.
The hard reality is that we have a choice - two alternatives. As my old Latin teacher used to say - theres no such thing as three alternatives. 'Alter' means two in Latin. The concept of an alternative is a choice between two courses of behaviour. It would be lovely if life was a pick and mix, but its not.

If the conservative party had been in power - all those things would have happened, but the poor people of England would have been even worst off. And Northern Ireland would still be in a state of civil war.

As it was the Labour Party was in the hands of no doubt, a morally flawed man. However he was one capable of interfacing and getting what he wanted out of the media, winning the 43 three marginal seats in parliament and he had the charisma to dominate all sectors of a warring party. In short he had all the clear sightedness and capability to acquire power Corbyn lacks.

Life isn't easy. Politics isn't a divinity class. Please stop telling me about Blair's shortcomings - the country would be in bloody sight better state if the left wingers hadn't succeeded in bundling him out of office, for basically backing America's disastrous foreign policy. It was a choice - a bloody difficult one, knowing that Wilson had paid a heavy price for not backing them over an equally disastrous Vietnam policy.

You know the facts. Stop pretending you don't.
