Absolutely not. Labour has absolutely no concern for the average working person. The "neo-idealist" left as Blair called them. A bunch of right-wingers with good acting lessons.

They are earnest, but only from the teeth outwards.

That's very true but we could change that.

Labour party ? them middle class wannabe bastards ? Never.

It certainly wasn't middle class at its origins but at the moment it is the nearest to the left major party in Britain.

Yes, that is what I meant, I should have stated 'new labour' are middle class.
Other working class heroes, such as Nye Bevan, creator of the NHS (who my grandfather was actually quite lucky to see speak at a conference) are one of the many heroes who were a part of the labour movement when they had socialist principles.
LOL there's no such thing as a politician who can act well. They all look and sound as phony as a human being could without turning themselves into a comedian. It would be less painful and much quicker if they just admitted they're lying instead of making me cringe with their awful, fake personalities and avoiding questions. Tony Blair is somewhere at the top of the list...

No, it is a fake labour party. Blair supported the Iraq War. A revolution could happen within the party yet the leadership aren't to be admired.
The trade unions would probably do well to cosy up the the Labour Party; both have roughly the same revolutionary potential.
Oh yeah, I went there...
Oh no you didn't!

Oh, so that's okay then. We should openly embrace "responsible capitalism".
Damn, us revolutionaries have got it all wrong...
Never say, you weren't warned
When they come to drag you away
To silence the dissident hiding in us all
They clench the fist of ordained might
From which side of the barbed wire
Do you want to see your life pass by?
