The top dogs of the Labour Party will say anything to criticise Tony Blair but will never repudiate his ideas because he's right. Britain is an economic black hole right now and we need leadership with genuine ideas to revitalise the UK and get everyday people back on their feet.

@CeilNoyle @ShippersUnbound if reading books has got you to a point where you think Social Democracy is economically viable then you're clearly reading some weird books 😂

@RichardBurgon its actually insane that people like you can be an MP while be so clearly out of touch with any sense of economics and what's wrong with this country. Did you even read Blair's essay?

Neoliberalism isn’t a “buzzword”. It’s the near 50-year political, economic and ideological project that has brought so many communities to their knees. It smashed workers’ rights, imposed austerity, deregulated the banks that then crashed the economy, privatised public utilities like water and energy, sold off council houses, handed tax cuts to the wealthy and corporations, turned universities into an unaffordable market, transformed public services into sources of private profit through outsourcing and PFI, and much more. It's the root cause of so much of what has gone wrong in our country. And it was all done to enrich the tiny elite that Tony Blair now so clearly represents.
Tim Shipman@ShippersUnbound

Neoliberalism. Wars. Nothing to offer. Your buzzword bingo card full. Ah that feels better, doesn’t it. Unburdened by experience of govt and set to remain so. Complete again. Phew

@polyfraggrenade how can you prove that an Israeli proletariat doesnt exist? Surely Marx's class boundaries are existent in any capitalist society

@TedRall @CricketSurfing Capitalism is meant to have poverty. Inequality is natural and fair, if you don’t work for your lot you can’t expect it handed to you

@iacodino @EarlofLeuven in markets, often the only times people would be forced into a certain situation is because government policy favouring a certain company will have created a monopoly. enviroments like that aren't produced naturally, and the state is the vehicle for those conditions.

@iacodino @EarlofLeuven employees have every right to find another job if they want to. no employer has the ability to force a worker to work as that would be illegal. The only institution that has the ability to do so is the state as it holds a monopoly on force and thus can act coercively

@KenCarsons_Toes @EarlofLeuven Idk employers holding complete control over their employees (which is the norm in the current economy) is pretty obviously oppressive, and the state is the only thing stopping that control from becoming entirely unrestained

@iacodino @EarlofLeuven How does a free market based on voluntary human interaction generate oppressive power structures? Only socialist government interventions under the guise of ‘equality’ leads to oppression of the individual and violations of their rights. Capitalism allows freedom to exist

@KenCarsons_Toes @EarlofLeuven Capitalism ends up suppressing them anyway since it always ends up generating oppressive power structures (as we've seen IRL), and there are ways to do socialism that don't involve individual subjugation like democratic market socialism, not just red-fascist USSR-style socialism

@iacodino @EarlofLeuven how can you support the individual's right to life, liberty, and property (as explained by Locke, Mill, Paine and other liberals) without supporting capitalism? the socialist ideology is inherently collectivist and thus subjugates the individual, making the two mutually exclusive

@EarlofLeuven I support the dissolution of capitalism while still being liberal on most other political and social issues, and I oppose capitalism from a liberal basis ( social classes are inherently anti-democratic)
