Occasionally you read something and you think about it, you read it again to make sure you read it properly and then you think, fuck me, i have quite possibly been as naive as at any time in my life and i am quite possibly as wrong as I have ever been in my life about politics

This is fucking chilling. I know i am capable of extreme hyperbole at times and I am not a huge fan of Alastair Campbell, but I implore you all, read this.

It is about a concept called the Sovereign Individual.

I saw that a while ago, it’s a very interesting read.

That wont happen, simply because we have elections. People have a vote and exercise it in this country. I think its pretty clear that British electorate wont allow our welfare state and NHS to be wound down, any party that advocates that just wont get elected. To have a welfare state you need taxes and taxes will evolve like they always have done to ensure they 'capture' enough revenue.

Cant believe I wasted time reading something by Campbell as I cant stand the man, he led the way for the likes of Cummings.

The sooner he disappears off the scene the better rather than stealing a living hanging onto everyone else's coat tails.

Of course it won’t happen.

It’s pure hyperbole and to be honest, if it’s worrying a communist it’s probably a good thing anyway.

I'd tend to agree but what about parties who stand on a ticket that says "we will not privatise the NHS" OR "We won't introduce university tuition fees" gets elected then sets about doing the polar opposite? It has happened before.

Why Bridlington is the lobster capital of Europe

Think of Yorkshire's east coast and you might think of seaside resorts like Scarborough, or fishing boats at Whitby. Or maybe wind farms off Spurn Point. What you probably won't think of is lobsters in Bridlington '“ but you should.

They get elected out and a party that promises to reintroduce the original policy gets back in. Tuition fees are a good example but sadly both main parties have backed them and they affected less of the public than the NHS. I don't think privatising the NHS through the back door has ever been acceptable to the vast majority of the British public and the idea is even less palatable after the last 12mths. Johnson knows this now without a doubt, even if he didn't before.
