I'm a lifelong football fan and longstanding labour movement activist. This sort of thing - the routine chanting of abuse by football fans towards a Labour prime minister - is something very new. I don't actually like it much - as Tony Benn said, politics should be about "issues, not personalities" - but it does serve as further proof of how much things are shifting in our country and how the anger of working-class people is growing. We need to listen to them.
