David Cameron on the near the left??


The new 'Near left' is now emerging....


Shock horror but apparently true! Unreliable sources from United Left HQ somewhere in Mayfair have confirmed that the left of the left are worried about David Camerons shift to the left. It would appear that Tory boy, the man born with a plumb in his mouth, (or was it a banana?) has embraced his inner leftism and has declared that when, or if, he wins the next general election he will 'liberalise' public services by making public service workers buy their own jobs? He is also looking at the easy jet phenomenon and could be wondering whether virtual unions operating on similar lines to easy this and that could be the way forward. So we could get easy union coming up soon (hope he isn't reading this and gets this idea in his head!!)


This cynical move would of course look like an attempt to buy the vote of those from lower England (as opposed to middle England) but those of us with a few brain cells will immediately spot the real shortfalls in this idea. It will simply mean that those workers, for example in a Housing Benefits division in a Council, will be given a small amount of money and then made to go to the city to beg for more funding to make it work. The city will then have financial control over what decisions are made. The so called 'cooperative' will then have to make a profit by selling its services. This will involve hiring and firing fellow workers, so you could have a situation where ex shop stewards and activists become engaged in making their own fellow workers redundant!


So the Tories are at it again and they are coming back with a vengeance. They want to win the next election at all costs and they will stop at nothing. Time for the super egos on the left, the left of the left and the further to the left, to calm down and work together on a strategy to deal with this or we had it!
