Given The Market Traders and Bankers have created this 'Double Dip' Recession that will find us back in the 1930s with 25 percent public spending cuts, you'd think Big Profits for Shareholders would be taxed at 97 percent. Not a bit of it. We're going to pay - as we always have since the birth of industrial society. So who do you vote for?
There are those (like me) who believed Labour represented working class folk - now and historically. Not a bit of it. At birth, over 100 years ago, there were Lib-Lab MPs and even Tory-Lab MPs. Today, it is obvious Lab, Lib or Tory, these parties do not represent ordinary working people.
In Norwich, I'll vote Green. Adrian Ramsay is an excellent candidate and the Greens in Norwich have established radical credentials. If I were in London, Manchester or Glasgow I would vote for TUSC. The Trade Union and Sociast Coalition rightly questions Labour's Tory policies and calls for a new realignment of politics based on the 'free association' of people. Whether it's the Co-op or the old building society, the 19th Century built organisations of ordinary people to protect themselves from Capitalists gone mad; to protect from poverty, child labour and exploitation. We need to rebuild 'free association' again. Instead of social networks like Facebook, we need A Social Network in the flesh!
