As some of you will know I have a particular interest in human rights having written a book about it. This week the First Minister of Scotland told us that she would do whatever she could to halt the Tories assault on our rights saying that it was inconceivable that the Scottish Parliament would give its consent to amend or abolish the Human Rights Act and replace it with a British Bill of Rights. This is wonderful news as it is essential that people in positions of authority and influence expose the British elite's plans for what they truly are, as this plan by the Tories would mark the end of Britain as a civilised society. You know that in my opinion the beginnings of the end of civilisation was the sale of council housing. Since that beginning Britain has been slowly descending into barbarism as expressed through vicious class and ethnic warfare. I will remind you again, all the Tories arguments about human rights are a smokescreen to hide their main goal in this programme of systematically abandoning rights and that is the removal of every and all employment rights. That is their holy grail. Again I warn you, they will not cease until they have imposed a form of slavery on all British workers. But they also have other goals, goals which will require them to impose a totalitarian form of control over British civil and political life. To achieve these they have to destroy organised resistance to their goals, and in the case of a British Bill of Rights, their chief target is the judiciary.
We are all familiar with the fact that the Tories, and most of the Labour Party, in other words, the elite gang of Westminster criminals, are in both political and economic terms, neoliberals. That means that they espouse an aggressive individualism and despise anything that smacks of collectivism which they endlessly propagandise as socialism. As they are liberals in the classical sense of the word, they only accept one form of right. There are two forms of right, negative and positive, and the neoliberal will only accept the negative as they argue that positive rights are not rights but privileges. Britain is a very exclusionary society in that the British elite spend as much of their energy excluding people from any meaningful participation in society as they do on anything else. If you are not, what Thatcher called 'one of us', then you will not be successful in any meaningful way in this country unless you are very lucky. I trust you will be now aware of how David Cameron and his friends at university held parties in pubs and clubs where they would stand on the tables and shout f..k the plebs! That has been revealed in all of our national papers and media this week, with the notable exception of, you guessed, the BBC, what a surprise. So you know this is not a piece of Doktor Kommirat propaganda. However, I trust by now you will accept that I do not do propaganda. Despite its faults and the inherent establishment bias of some of its presenters Channel Four News is probably the best news programme in Europe, but, surprise surprise, the government has revealed plans to privatise it. So much for the independence of Independent Television News. They are also waging war against the medical profession who are threatening strike action over the quite bizarre terms of their proposed contracts. Westminster will not cease until they control everybody and everything on their exclusive terms, and, although I fully support their struggle, I must confess little sympathy for anyone in ITV or the medical profession who were amongst the loudest cheerleaders for the destruction of the miners, steelworkers and the general trades union movement. As they say, what goes around comes around.
My point is that the Tories and their allies in Labour do not believe that ordinary people have rights. All you are entitled to is what they are prepared to give you, and if they deem it necessary, they will remove it at a whim. The Tories are following a well travelled and quite successful trail of establishing an authoritarian society, to be followed by a totalitarian one. The methods they are using and the targets they aim at will be familiar to all who study politics and history. I do not want this post to be too long, so I will follow it up with a post on negative and positive rights and why we will, if we are not vigilant and supportive of people like Nicola Sturgeon, Shami Chakrabarti and Jeremy Corbyn, lose all our employment rights, all forms of social housing, all forms of national health care, free education etc. Make no mistake, we face a dystopian future unless we challenge the dominant narrative. You have been warned.
Your Servant
Doktor Kommirat.
