I like the idea of Labour becoming the sort of backseat party the Liberals became in the 20s and fading away, they've both long outlived their usefulness. Conservatives are same-old, same-old, and their sort of politics will never go away. The problem for Liberals and Labour now is they don't stand for shit. Labour haven't even adopted any decent super-cool Keynesian economic strategies to dig us out of this recession like FDR or Hitler did.
We need a new main anti-conservative opposition party that can just come along, say 'fuck this, i've got a load of boss ideas', and inspire people to get some hard work done and to have some faith in government for once. This is why I brought up FDR and Hitler earlier. They're the only two leaders I can think of that actually won anyones 'can do' imagination in the great depression and pulled their countries properly out of the mire.
I'm rambling now but yeah, fuck everything. Eat the rich and televise it
