So what now for Labour?
As the election campaign rumbles on no one really knows what is going to happen come the May 6th, the only certainty is Labour will finish third on the popular vote with only the twisted boundaries keeping them from replacing the Lib Dems as the third party on the house. So what happened to this once proud party, have they become an irrelevance in modern Britain? For a start we should acknowledge that the thing holding power since 1997 isn't really the Labour party, it was hijacked by Blair and his Notting Hillbillies in the 90's. They never had any interest in the people and every decision was taken in the interest of the party rather than the nation. Now 13 years on they've run out of steam, every promise is treated with disbelief and even their own supporters know the game is up.
I do feel a little sorry for the true Labour supporters, those who'll be staying at home or voting Lib Dem in May, they've lost their party to a bunch of power mad shysters and they're unlikely to get it back. Those few Labourites still cheering Labour on are not genuine Labour people, most of them are just scared they'll have to work for a living. Labour have made the poor poorer, in fact they've made everyone but the mega rich worse off. They've turned the UK into something not a million miles away from a police state, given time they finish the job and we'll all be fucked. Our public services are no longer run for those who use them, rather they are just there to employ as many people as possible. The police serve the state instead of the people, never have I known such a distrust of our police from decent law abiding people.
I don't see a future for Labour, even if they join the Lib Dems in a stitch up after the election they won't be in control of the country and come the election after they will be punished for mess they've made, a mess they can hide for now but won't be able to for the next five years. If they lose the infighting will start, they're barely keeping it together now, I shudder to think what will happen come May 7th. The country has moved on, the need for a party like Labour doesn't exist in the way it did in the early part of the 20th century. They've only got themselves to blame, they traded their values for power and now they won't have either. Real Labour people should blame the morons who retweet prescotts nonsense, the ones never question the leadership, the ones in for what they can get and the ones who suck up to the leadership knowing that leadership really doesn't give a shit about them.
Goodbye Labour, you've done some good things since your formation. You once had people who wanted to do the right thing, shame they got replaced with people more concerned with lining their own pockets. You gave the nation some great politicians, shame you also gave us the warmonger Blair and the useless bastard Brown. You once stood up for the working man, shame you now rob him to pay the bone idle. You once stood up for the rights of our people, shame now you abuse them and treat us all as criminals. You were once a strong political force, shame these days you're nothing more than a gang of self serving bandits. You once wanted peace and to ban the bomb, now you bomb women and children in far off lands. You were once respected, now your loathed. You won't be missed.
