Mostly I think, people see the General Election now rushing towards us, as a battle between two mildly different parties. Both very British, one focussed on the poorer people and the other on businessmen.
There has been some hardening on these traditional views lately, more of which later, but they are still widely held. That if you vote Conservative, it reflects your general outlook and will do no great harm. Similarly, the Labour voter.
Handing sovereignty to Brussels has had a corrosive influence of course, by giving politicians less to do and thus more time to fiddle and engage in pointless personal jousts, pretending it is in some way related to politics.
But quite apart from that an underground movement has been gaining strength and flexing its muscles ever more openly. The objective is totalitarian government by a self chosen elite, along Marxist lines. The first casualty has been socialism. The laudable aims of the Labour movement, to espouse genuinely social policies to improve the lot of the greatest mass of the population, have been subsumed and deleted.
They are too soft, too irrelevant for the modern 'progressives' as they love to refer to themselves, despite their retrograde thinking. Simultaneously, they had to demonise the Conservatives, to make them seem extreme, living black shirts always on the edge of violent repression and war.
Despite a complete absence of factual evidence, it was working too. The virulent hatred for Thatcher is designed to impress that she was some kind of witch, despite saving the country from a ruinous Labour administration and even having the focus and clear-minded approach needed to deal with the Argentines. If you remembered her successes, you would doubt that the Conservatives were what the progressives claimed.
It is why the Left and their useful idiots attack UKIP so savagely and so quickly, because they represent a resurgence of traditional Conservative values, when the mainstream Party had accepted that it was 'nasty' and moved to the left. Such thoughts, of voting UKIP, must be expunged and viewed as beyond the Pale.
All of this is going on mainly out of sight, as it is clearly understood that if their intentions were made plain they would be dead in the water in a current democracy. The only way to achieve their aims would be by force and they lack the means or support to carry that through. So, they use guile.
They infest the institutions such as the judiciary, the teaching profession and the Civil Service, to ensure that the thought control, Groupthink, is imposed on an unsuspecting society through Political Correctness.
The EU is doing much the same thing, by hiding its real objectives and playing the long game to achieve an empire that was previously beyond the reach of military conflict. It has always wanted to be a single country, with unified laws, taxes, police and armed forces and currency. It isn't working too well, but they are persevering and hope to have their completely democracy free country, run by technocrats.
It would be a useful vehicle for the hard Left progressives to take over of course, but otherwise they continue their own projects. Based in small cells, like a terrorist organisation and for similar reasons they chip away at the underpinnings of Western democracy.
Race has long been a weapon and why they helped set up all the racial awareness bodies, to keep difference in the forefront of everyone's minds and ferment racial intolerance, which was really their own intolerance. The same with class hatred, global warming, 'greedy bankers', homosexuality and paedophilia.
Now, there is a committed Marxist leading the Labour Party who wants to further undermine pretty much everything Britain has ever stood for. His goal would be to bring forward the project of totalitarian government, where the state controls everything. A major plank will be the continuation of borrowing to increase his support by buying 'clients' and to destroy the economic viability of the country.
Remember, these are the same people who, when last in power told us that state sector jobs would lead to a growth in the economy, despite the opposite being (quite obviously) true. You are expected to believe this though, because the population is increasingly poorly educated. again this is a deliberate plank of the progressive project. Most of the people need to be 'proles' of low expectation who will do the work needed by the elite, without an ability to realise how they are abused.
And in an age of instant mass communication information must be controlled too. There is much barking from the Left and the 'environmentalists' about a hostile, Right wing dominated press. Again, it is laughably the opposite of the truth. The BBC is ludicrously in thrall to the Marxists, Channel 4 is more blatantly there too, Sky has Adam Boulton to cheerlead for the Left and the Daily Mirror, Guardian, Sunday Times, Financial Times and numerous magazines sing from the same hymn sheet.
It is thus hugely important that until and unless the Labour Party becomes a Socialist Party once again, no one should vote for it. That goes for their 'branches' too; the Greens, the Lib Dems, SNP and other crackpot groups.
A proper, libertarian leader is needed, to strip out root and branch the corrupt and festering malignancy that infests our politics today. Think how much could be spent on genuine welfare for the genuinely needy, on the NHS, on educational resources and all the rest, if we cut out the stuff we don't need. The Left projects of diversity monitors, drug addict support networks, a whole raft of Non Governmental Organisations and pointless Quango's that nevertheless bleed the treasury dry. Billions wasted on the attempt to destroy capitalism by spending our wealth fighting non existent 'global warming', more again on supporting the EU project, a 1920's solution that is irrelevant in the 21st century.
Ask yourself why the State should run everything as the Left wants, when everything it does run, doesn't work. Then ask where the real, actual political violence comes from; the Left. From the Poll Tax riots, to the Occupy mobs, the attacks on the Countryside marchers. All of it Left organised though claiming to be spontaneous. Bear in mind, from Blair organising the 'public' applauding him as he arrived at Downing Street to the lies of Global Warming and the need for class hatred, the truth and the 'progressives' are rarely in the same place at once.
