WintonsWeek Count The Days! In A Month We Can Humiliate Blair, Labour Britains Slide Into Shambles Can Be Stopped Unfortunately, I Might Have To Ignore My Own Advice Labour values mean envy, class war, incompetence. The mere fact the Tories want to do less means they cannot cause as much trouble. So May 5 will be the day when we can rid ourselves of this miserable, dissembling, government of incompetents. We will have the chance to stop the slide of this country towards a shambolic and shameful third world status where nothing important seems to work anymore. We can stop the move towards ever higher taxes, and resist the clutches of an overpowering and bullying state. The opinion polls have been insisting that neo-Labour will win handily, but now they are wavering. I listened to a speech a couple of months ago from Tory MP Howard Flight, when he was still speaking to Michael Howard. Flight said then that he expected the Tories to win by 20 seats. At the time, this view was thought to be hopelessly partisan, but since then the momentum has been steadily shifting. Some non-believers say that the hurdle is too high. The Tories are so far behind it would be impossible to regain so much ground. This assumes that Labour won in the first place because it was loved and admired by the electorate. Certain of the most corrupt operatives for Labour, like Peter Mandelson, believe that the 1997 and 2001 victories were also down to their clever tactics. None of this is true. MAJORITY HUGE BUT READY TO SWING The majority for Labour is huge but teetering. It is ready to return to a sensible party like the Tories. Labour won in 1997 because the public had become bored with the Tories who had been in power for too long. Blair managed to persuade floating voters that neo-Labour was no longer a socialism-driven danger to the economy. They voted for him again in 2001, not because the British loved the man and his party, but because they felt that one-term was not enough to determine whether neo-Labour could fulfil its promises. The fact that liar-in-chief Alistair Campbell and Mandelson lied and spun and played aggressive win-at-all-costs and corrupt hardball actually made no difference. Most voters still trusted Blair, and that made it easier for them to vote Labour. Thats no longer true. REMEMBER WHEN BLAIR WAS POPULAR? This dramatic reversal was always on the cards. When Blair took power, we were constantly told how he was the most popular, the most trusted, the most beloved PM of all time. It doesnt take much of a memory to know that these things go in cycles. Even Harold Wilson was revered, briefly. Maybe even John Major? Nah. The higher the extreme in one direction, the more vicious the slump back. Blair is now the most hated, most despised PM in history. He and his alien-crew of second rate college lecturer wafflers, like the awful, motor-mouth Gordon Brown, and overly aggressive former trade union officials led by that ill-educated oaf John Prescott, have been found out. One of the reasons that Labour has looked invincible in the polls was because most people dont take an interest in politics from one election to another. During the coming campaign, many floating voters will reluctantly engage their brains with politics again, and this is when the move to kick Labour asses will gather momentum. LABOUR VALUES For any rational person, this case is now irreversibly proven. The Labour Party represents an empty, failed philosophy. It is wrong on every major issue. Its statist solutions cannot ever work. We will hear much talk during the campaign by smug Labourites, mostly with Scottish accents, about Labours values. We now know clearly what that means. Labour values mean envy, class war, incompetence. It is a pity, but unavoidable, that we have in our democratic system to remove incumbent, honest, capable Conservative governments to keep the system straight. The sad thing is that to do this we have to allow the fools from Labour to take control. This means that every important issue of policy will slide during their tenure. Health care, education, transport, pensions, the economy, all will take a hit during a Labour regime. Taxes have risen, stealthily at first but now by so much that people are hurting. The waste generated by Labour is too huge to hide. The once admired pension system has been trashed. Only a party of narrow-minded, hateful, Marxists would have wasted all that time trying, and failing, to ban fox-hunting. Look at Labours House of Lords reform. They were determined to reform it, but never even took the trouble to come up with a plan. THANK GOODNESS; THE DAMAGE IS REPAIRABLE At least we can take some comfort from the fact that Blair has forced Labour to push its socialism off the public agenda, so we are not lumbered with monstrosities which take decades to get rid of, like the 1945 Labour governments welfare state and National Health Service. Both of these failed attempts to be fair (another Labour value, meaning levelling down until gross incompetence is reached) are still causing immense damage 50 plus years on. The Minimum Wage will be relatively easy to sideline by making sure it is always at a level that wont actually affect wages. Thats what both Democrats and Republicans do in the U.S. Come May 5, we can look forward to a Tory government which by its very nature must be better than Labour. The mere fact the Tories want to do less means they cannot cause as much trouble. This means that the worst Tory government is always better than any Labour government. Remember, they might not admit it, but all Labour members believe in Socialism. The sensible majority of this country know, excepting the poor benighted victims in Labours rotten boroughs, that only fools believe in Socialism. LUCKY UKIP Unfortunately, Im probably not going to be able to follow this excellent advice to vote Tory. In my constituency, my Tory MP Howard Flight has been the victim of a monstrous injustice from Michael Howard and Tory Central Office and he has been removed. It appears that my Tory candidate will be one forced on my local association by Central Office. Unless Flight runs as an independent, it looks like I will have to vote UKIP.
