10.12.2025 11:45 β π 3 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0The 2010s opened with a televised public inquiry into the crimes and malfeasance of the tabloids. It ended with the same papers hounding the PMβs neighbours for phoning the police at 2 am during his drunken, plate-smashing argument with his wife. Itβs only got much worse than that since.

There's something to be said about the irony of seeing a big-budget Hollywood movie whose messaging is ultimately "Fuck corporations, Support Unions, & Eat the Rich" but I'm not going to lie- it was fun as hell to watch Things burn.

12.11.2025 23:32 β π 5 π 1 π¬ 0 π 0But for McSweeney and his fellow travellers this result was simply viewed as impossible. In his worldview victory could only be secured by the most cautious compromise with the forces and interests of the establishment. The reality of the highest Labour share of the vote since 1997, and the mobilisation of thousands of young activists, therefore had to be made unreal. Corbynism wasn't just deemed undesirable but unfeasible. So, the now evidently possible had to be made permanently impossible. They therefore started airbrushing the result from history and worked to sabotage the chances of it happening again. Peter Mandelson is on record as saying he would work every day to undermine Corbyn, while Tony Blair strongly inferred he would rather see a Conservative government than
From the Neal Lawson NS piece, and we can be much more blunt about this: right from that day, all these clowns realised the Tory government was teetering and might fall at any time, and they would need to give people apparently terrifying reasons to not vote Labour, when it did.

I heard there was a statue tall
That sneered at folk and commanded all
But you don't really care for symbols do ya
It goes like this the feet the fist
The head that fell the aim that missed
The long lost king whose name was Ozymandias
Ozymandias
Ozymandias
Ozymandias
Ozymaaaaandias
Oopsies.
