Poor old Gordy. He’s waited twenty years to get where he’s at and it’s all gone wrong! Gordy thinks that he can run the country like a 1930’s Tory toff; behind the scenes and out of the glare of the public and cameras. Times have changed Gordy! If you want advice from a southern working-class liberal, STAY IN OFFICE and hopefully you’ll destroy the Labour party before you destroy Britain! 

It looks like Britain is about to go from New Labour to Blue Labour. Cameron has been shaped in the Bliar mould, vacuous with smiles and Britain it seems, laps it up. You reap what you sew like you did with Bliar!

I noticed today that the street sign outside the old Wick T Farm depot spells Arundel Road, ‘Arundle’ I wonder if anyone else has noticed that?

According to the ‘Tribune’ (9^th May 2008), the Labour party is near to bankruptcy. Where are all those champagne socialists now? Those people who gladly and loudly sung “Things can only get better” on that Friday morning in 1997. Newlabour used to stand for complete CONTROL, Bliar tried to create a big-brother database state that invaded every aspect of citizens lives, it’s lucky that it wasn’t a complete success!

It’s the annual Littlehampton town council meeting (Mayor-making) tomorrow, which I will attend as a member of the public (thank the people of Brookfield ward for giving Irene 4 more votes than me!!).

Today is the 11^th Anniversary of  the Newlabour

‘revolution’ It’s now very ironic to read the 1997 manifesto. The annotations are my comments.

 “Our long-term objective is a lower starting rate of income tax of ten pence in the pound. Reducing the high marginal rates at the bottom end of the earning scale - often 70 or 80 per cent - is not only fair but desirable to encourage employment.” And it’s just been abolished!

“We will reject the boom and bust policies which caused the collapse of the housing market.”Well, we’ve had the boom…..now for the bust!

“Public services and transport services in rural areas must not be allowed to deteriorate. The Conservatives have tried to privatise the Post Office. We opposed that, in favour of a public Post Office providing a comprehensive service.”A Post Office providing a comprehensive service….eh?

“Our system of government is centralised, inefficient and bureaucratic.”You said it! “We are committed to a referendum on the voting system for the House of Commons.”Really?
