The Rule of the Mob

so we have lost Woolwoths and MFI, despite the attempts apparently by a certain nameless somebody to 'save' the companies.

What has been saved is parliament having to debate the demise of such well known companies. Strange how they have gone just as parliament goes on one of its little breaks again. Don't they know that there is a crisis.

I think that there must be more discussion about the appalling events in the commons yesterday during the debate into the emergency/crisis budget. It would appear that labour just do not want to listen to anybody on the opposition benches without baying about the eighties.

I think that amongst the socialists there is a great deal of self loathing because just as the conservatives can be said to be the do nothing party, which I disagree with, then surely the guilt amongst socialists should be that they did nothing for the working class and public sector workers during the Thatcher period, and the Tory victories at the polls. Where were the socialists during this period, what were they actually doing for the working classes then. They were the do nothings that they now accuse the conservatives of being.

Also, amongst the same group of people they know that what is happening in Iraq and Afghanistan is so terrible that of course they should be on the streets demanding our immediate withdrawal. Yet what do they do, just wring their hands waiting for their inevitable defeat when they can then go onto the streets as the undemocratic mob. It will be who governs Britain again, the rule of the ballot box, or the rule of the mob.
