I hate that we finally get a Labour government but it’s just another Tory government. At least Tony Blair called it “New Labour” instead of this grotesque pretense.

[Liz Kendall] said the cuts were about “ensuring the welfare state survives” and that the government would always seek to protect those with the greatest need.

This bullshit has got to die, and shame on the Guardian for uncritically publishing it. The choice isn’t between cutting welfare or watching it die. It’s between taxing the rich or not.

The problem here is that they’ve already made that choice and are pretending that now we only have two choices, both of which amount to “screw the poor”. There are massive amounts of wealth in this country and it’s all going into the pockets of the rich and into bombs.

So let’s do away with this “we have to cut or lose everything” lie already.

FFS this country needs a socialist party.

Well at least some MPs understand the point of the party even if the PM doesn’t.

What’s the point in Labour if they’re just going to repeat Conservative talking points, who themselves are only repeating reform talking points.

What a cunt!
