Reflections Thursday`s election......

All you have to do is decide what you do with the times you are given the dice is rolled and tbe UK staggers towards the end of the British state. In Northern Ireland the Unionist majority is gone; in Scotland the demand for independence grows as the SNP win 48 out of 56, as I glance at a map of

Wales it ressembles in its blue incursions a map of the middle ages of the Marcher lords invasion of Wales. As the Jewish Labour movement reveals it's subtext that it never was about anti semeticism but about anti socialism and Jeremy Corbyn in particular.. As the Witch Finders desperately search to cast Momentum as Militant and the little robins of mid wales with their red breasts and conservative souls rip into the mass membership, as an old bitter former leader of the Labour rages and seeks to live through his ersatz son the present leader with dignity and gravitas prepares to stand down. Never have I seen so clear an illustration of the problems and curses that fathers pass on to their sons and in these two leaders we see the extremities both negative and positive. As Labour moves to a new generation of leaders we see the emergence of blue Labour in all its socially conservative crassness take on the heirs of Corbyn.

As Plaid views the years ahead it reflects upon the problem that in so many seats English Tories who failed to appear at the counts easily out polled them. They begin to reflect upon the coming Welsh elections of 2021. In that election Plaid must decide whether it is socialist or not. As Plaid reflects on the social conservatism they have stayed silent on they realise that it's silence has fed the conservative social values beloved of Neil McEvoy and Jac o" the Alt Right. As Welsh Labour reflects upon its insolation in the South, both Plaid and Welsh Labour must now ask what each has in common and how each can replenish and renew it's socialism.. Each must recognise that Wales risks being the last colony of Johnsonia as it was the first colony of the Anglo Norman state. It asks each party how Ecosocialism can rescue Wales and it's people. As the political centre lays dead killed by the economic crisis of 2008 we can see no revival of its aims the clear problem though is that it's adherents like Freud's ghosts do not know they are dead. The monsters of this time of change walk the land and yet no healing is possible and as reality bites and reality sinks in the danger of a unique English Crypto Fascism lurks in the shadows . As Johnson prepares to change the constituency boundaries in Wales the left must seriously reflect upon further devolution and independence. As Brexit bites and the Blairites understand little of the new circumstances back to Blair is neither possible nor will the mass membership of the Labour Party allow it. As we realise that , so in the mass membership will draw from itself a representative Parliamentary Labour Party. In Wales and Scotland the party must renew itself and reflect it's membership. A new generation will renew the Labour Party and in Wales and Scotland Labour must reflect it's appreciation of and its origins amongst the nation's that make up the country that once was the United Kingdom. ,it's over now and Boris Johnson is it's last Prime Minister..and as Jo Swindleson and the Fib Dems die in the ditch we await a new political reality..
