The General Election of Autumn 2018

It's a simple choice the election of Autumn 2018. And so we look beyond the blood moon of July 27th The future of us all comes down to a simple choice. We are facing a landmark general election as the leaves fall this Autumn. As the government staggers and falls towards the abyss. We see only two choices ahead of us. The election will have more significance than any since 1945.
.
Two mutually exclusive paradigms will clash. One is a worshipper of the free market and of the minimalist state in which the weak go to the wall. They claim Individuality yet all they share is narcissism. They no little history except the knowledge of the large pink maps.
The other wants a good health service and a powerful protection for the vulnerable. They know the collective but value diversity They understand that they don't know everything but know that there are no simple answers to complex questions. They value a maximum and a minimum level of wealth. They are kinder gentler and have more doubt about themselves.

And so i ask you to make your choice. There is no middle ground you either have faith in Socialism or you do not. And so to you like Jess Phillips , Stephen Kinnock , John Mann and Tony Blair as a new 1931 moment comes you have to decide who you are with. I read your words Stephen Kinnock that it's not time for a general election and all I see is your ambition.

It applies to all of us this choice we must make. America will face the same between Trump and Sanders in 2020. It's not about hard Brexit or soft Brexit it's about what is constellated and correlated with these choices. It's about looking outwards or inwards there is no Liberal Democracy between these choices but it's a choice for numerous generations to come..and they will ask you who did you support and what did you do in the Autumn election of 2018.. and they will ask you why? When you put the security on high alert to protect this child man who comes here ..when there are more police on the streets than at any time since 2011.. then I smell your fear and desperation and so do millions others..



All you downtrodden people
Always bear the brunt
Just sit back on you fat backsides
Till you have to face the Front
Waiting till the bullyboys get you
Don't make no kind of sense
And pretty soon there'll be no room
For sitting on the fence
You better decide which side you're on
This ship goes down before too long
If Left is right then Right is Wrong
You better decide which side you're on
Too bad for the gay revolution
This is as far as we get
And if you think you're free, well listen to me
You ain't seen nothing yet
We're all gonna feel the backlash
Of puritanical power
And kicking us down into the ground
Gonna be their Finest Hour
