  • Essentially, she called for non government interference in the affairs of big business and the rich. She believed that the wealthy were drivers of a nations progress and they shouldn’t be harassed by such things like fair taxation or employment rights. As she was totally against the idea of a welfare state and social care (why should rich people contribute to looking after the disadvantaged in society?), her view was f**k the poor. It’s the law of the jungle. Survival of the fittest. Darwin’s law etc. If all this sounds familiar today, it’s because in the seventies, students of her beliefs went on to hold senior positions in the Reagan administration during which capitalism went into full malignant mode. Today, the second generation of her followers include neo-cons, the billionaire class, liberal politicians, centrist politicians (which form the bulk of the ‘democratic’ West), and the far right. All continue to promote her beliefs and tell the poor that socialism or immigration is to blame for their problems.







  • An absolute legend and sorely missed. He maintained a consistent belief in what was right and was the moral voice of the Labour Party. The loss of these socialist titans who witnessed the birth of the social and health revolutions post World War 2 are a direct cause of the terrible state of the Labour Party today - a cesspit of pro-corporate, back stabbing, genocide supporting group of individuals with no ethics. No one today carries the torch of fairness and equality within the Labour Party today since all dissent has been expelled. It’s a shame his son is so different and slots into the current crowd of Labour MPs
