I watched an interview on Scotland Tonight with Kezia Dugdale, the new leader of the Scottish Labour Party and can only conclude that Labour are genuinely lost. I live in hope that nationally they will elect one of the three stooges, Cooper, Kendall or Burnham, because with one of those three nationally and Dugdale in Scotland they are literally unelectable. The indomitable Kezia was asked four times in a row if she agreed with a statement her deputy had made earlier in the day and she point blank refused to answer, wittering on with the same prepared statement one of her advisers had obviously written for her in anticipation of being asked this question. In addition, she is congenitally incapable of answering anything without attacking the SNP. Even if the question has absolutely nothing to do with the SNP or the Scottish government she manages to turn her answer into a tirade against them. Scottish Labour obviously haven't learned that this is one of the greatest turnoffs in politics and that the electorate are sick to death of politicians like this.
As for Cooper, Burnham and Kendall, they are simply a parody. Their Oxbridge cultural background makes them incapable of understanding reality and they simply resemble a trio of glovepuppets. Between them and Dugdale, they represent everything that is wrong with the UK today and why people are turning to alternatives like Jeremy Corbyn, the SNP and UKIP. British politics is well and truly broken and the political class live in continual denial as to why. For example, in Iain Duncan Smith we have a person in one of the highest offices of state who can realistically be described as evil. He told the British people yesterday that work is good for your health. Now that may well have a germ of truth in it, but coming from the present Conservative government it is eerily similar to another party in the not too distant past who argued that work made you free. This is compounded by the fact that in Duncan Smith's own words, he wants to force disabled people into work. Thus, whilst the Tories may not be physically constructing concentration camps, they are turning workplaces into something similar. You will take whatever work is on offer, on whatever terms and conditions that exist or you will lose your benefits for up to three years and can starve to death and save the taxpayer a lot of money. If you live in the USA I want to tell you that the British press were full of stories at the weekend telling us how one in five doctors in the UK are sending patients to foodbanks because they are malnourished and starving. That is a reality in modern Britain I am sure the American press do not report on. This is how Tories interpret economic recovery.
With respect to Labour's glovepuppets they support most of what the Tories do and have no alternatives to the austerity programme, that is why Jeremy Corbyn is winning the leadership race at the moment. He at least if offering a different vision. For Scotland's sake I trust Jeremy will lose because any other candidate will only hasten Scottish independence. With any of the three stooges and the blessed Kezia in charge, Labour will simply die in Scotland, deservedly so. You have been warned.
By the way, before I forget, I trust you are all aware of the latest stock market crisis that has wiped billions off share values, and I hope you will remember where you heard that this was on the horizon. I will return to this later.
