The final crisis of capitalism?

The final crisis of capitalism? And as the e


conomy begins to nose dive that screams of the hard right Brexiteers becomes more shrill. As Jacob Rees Mogg becomes more the darling of the far right and the religious theocratic tendency tbat collated around him the cold of the February chill creeps into our bones and our tolerant self. Anna Soubry rails at the growing consciousness of bigotry and raw nationalism sweeping over the Tory Party.. what will it take for a break out from the Tories?

Rumours abound that her and others are in contact with Vince Cable. Are we about to see a new centre grouping on the centre right that is pro European and pro buisness? Are we about to see an unpleasant blue kipper hard right party that is xenophobic , anti European and socially conservative? A party of Bluekipper..Calvinistic bell ends and nub ends of far right hallucinations and fantasies? Will this be the inverted 80s where the right is split and Labour 're for a generation?

Rumours abound of a Norway plus arrangement that will soon become Labour European policy. A new international financial crisis will propel the left to power throughout Europe . The change is coming and it may well be that Labour will come to power for a generation. It is essential that the reforms within the Labour Party continue. It is essential that one member one vote becomes the basis of the party. It becomes essential tbat all members make policy and that mandatory re-selection is seen as both essential and necessary. The coming Socialist government will require support inspiration and awareness from the rest of the left. It must be that the New Labour tendency that once possessed the party will never again allow a political milieu to happen that led to the rise of Farage and UKIP. It was Blair who was the midwife of UKIPERY. The destruction of ideology , social justice and class awareness has led to a collapse of faith in progressive and reforming politics. It was Blair who has created the core conditions that led to a denigration of expertise, hope and self understanding. It's time for hope not hate. It's time to have confidence and to understand that the blind dead hand of the price mechanism and market mechanism is a monstrosity. The NHS the Education System and the Transport super structures are not businesses thet are services. It's time to take on board a citizens income as essential. The right fades as robotics, big data and social media change everything. The logic of a post industrial society will mean that vast numbers of people will have no jobs and no conventional economic activity. We must soon recognise that citizenship is more far mire than economic value. We must educate empower and enable those who face the



consequences of economic and technological change. We either build an Ecosociallist society or we face barbarism.. the logic if the alt right in the 30s led to the gas chamber and the concentration camp.. Climate change will not be solved by the 'free market' or by hyper capitalism.. refugees will sweep the world driven by the climate change effects. If we do not solve the problems in the next generation then we face a human eternal night. There are no excuses any more.. it's getting late...
