The Tories' Dilemma

A stand-off between the nasty party led by "whoever" and the nastier party led by Farage will leave the crisis in the Tory Party even worse. Just imagine the heart-searching. (Set aside whether they actually have hearts).


Vote Farage and get Corbyn? Vote Johnson (or "whoever") and get Corbyn?

Ironically only the Liberal Democrats can save the Tories if people are trusting enough to vote for them. The LibDems showed their principles when they ditched the issue of tuition fees and made a dirty deal with Cameron.


The BBC report that Vince Cable rejects the result of any election the Liberals didn't win. So it's back to Lloyd George in Cable-land.

A Labour victory is not guaranteed and Labour will have to fight for every vote. However, the effectiveness of the Unite poster campaign against the revolting Tommy Robinson shows what can be achieved by the Labour movement working together.

The BBC persist with their myopic vision of Brexit vs Remain. Whenever a Labour representative tries to say there are other issues which will exist outside or inside the EU the BBC insist they are dodging the issue.

Although I have been expelled from the Labour Party I still believe socialists should work for a Corbyn-led Labour government. A vote of no confidence in "whoever" would be a good start. A Labour movement campaign for a socialist programme would be a good follow-up.
