Well, unless the Labour Party pulls its finger out and gets:

1. A communication strategy that is better than your average 18 year old media students plan.

2. Challenges every aspect of the lies that Lynton Crosby and the Tory cabinet put-out on a daily basis.

3. At least come up with a convincing political framework about beliefs and core values into which they can slot some game-changing policies closer to the election.

It's all just shuffling chairs on the neoliberal Titanic.

Won't happen David.

You only have to look at the People's Politics gimmick to know how fucked things are.

No DJ my colleague is a portfolio holder on our City Council, has been Labour all her life and found Chucker to be as un Labour as possible. Surrounded by fawning lackeys and dressed to kill in Savile Row. He has nothing in common with Labour voters. She likened him to Obama. No policies but a handsome black man who will appear to those who see image as more important than talent and integrity.

No Argie, the bloke down the pub I was talking to was a member of the UKIP hierarchy.

He said that Nigel, an ex-investment banker knew nothing about working people and was just in it for the expenses he could get from the EU, an organisation he despises - ungrateful, little sod.

He said he was just like Mitt Romney. No policies but very well off and a smooth white man.

This is all wrong: he should be surrounded by Trade Union Officials in flat caps with whippets on leads.

I think this is where we can add liar to hypocrite.
