Three Completely Unconnected Observations

[poliphilo]

1. What is the point of the Labour party if not to speak up for the unions? We already have a party that speaks up for the bosses; we don't need two of them. 

2. In Europe today it is more important that the financiers get their money back (with interest) than that the people prosper. This is preparing the ground for revolution. 

and on a personal note....

3. You turn your back on a baby and the next thing you know it's eating the dust jacket off one of your first editions.

I dearly hope so. There are already signs of overreach in this country. Even veteran right-wing extremists like my father can be disarmed by hammering the socio-economic fault lines. Drag every political discussion back to the observation that this really is class warfare, us versus them, the wealthy elites against the rest of us, and his resistance collapses instantly.
