Blair & the American Connection

by Anti-Blair
New Labours Last COnference
For those old enough to remember the miners strike and for those too young it is important to go back to history to understand what it happening today. Thatcher used an American to lead the attacks on the miners, thus paving the way for the almost complete de-industrialisation of Britain. After the miners were crushed, the printers and dockers followed. In such a manner Britain became a social laboratory for large US multinationals. Blairism is aiming to complete the task and if it fails, the Tories are waiting in the wing to continue the task, although their rise to power will probably occur after a massive abstention of voters.


Blairism is attempting to deregulate the public sector to such an
extent that it mirrors the de-industrialisation of Britain. He
emphatically stated that people should no longer rely on the state for
anything, other than its armed fists, the police and army alongside
its newly created paramilitary thugs.

The union leaderships forever loyal to the Labour Party are also
playing their role in the charade. Bob Crow has apparently joined Ken
Livingstones co-management body which takes control of part-privatised
London Underground. Livingstone also recruited an American, Bob Kiley who made his name bumping off people in Latin America in the 1960's. The Post office Union tops have joined the discussion of the Sawyer report to essentially break-up the postal service and hand it over lock stock and barrel to the large multinationals from the US. In nursing the Royal College of Nursing has appointed an American women who has been instrumental in bringing in 20,000 Phillipino 'nurses' thus ensuring the further deregulation of the NHS.

The aim is clear to shut down every serivice built up over decades by
the state.

The Left plays its part in this by asking people to always vote for
Bankrupt Labourites. The war will intensify the desire for social
change. If strikes break out and they have, Lock out in the West Coast
and possible Firemen strike in Britain, demands will be placed to
attack the workers vehemently.

The war against Iraq has as much to do as the war at home than anything else. In order to ram through globalisation with a hidden and not so hidden fist the British state is handing over its affairs to Americans who are trained in a different culture and have a different history. Its no coincidence that Wall Street called the Argentinian ruling class bankrupt and demanded Wall Stree take direct control.

New Labour last conference was the death knell of the Labour Party. it was a declaration that it will be for globalisation and war no matter what. The irony of the situation was that the misnamed group Labour Against the War was seen clapping for Clinton (another American) when he explained why cowboys always go it alone...
