Anyone but Miliband

I HOPE THAT Ed Milliband is just playing with the voters by giving them what he perceives they want, like the leaders of other parties, who are panicked into doing a week before polling day - only to forget all such promises after getting preferment to power. Remember the Lisbon Treaty and the abandonment of student loans? Promises made during the 2010 general election were quickly forgotten once power came within the grasp of politicians. Now, the same thing is happening as the politicians try to outbid each other for the electors favour on polling day: all the parties have been splashing out billions upon billions of spending promises in a panic stricken effort to win on May 8.

                

                So when Milliband promises to bring in a law to redefine Islamaphobia as an aggravated crime, I hope that, with power, he will temper what he has promised to do with it once he sits in Downing Street. After all, the Labour Party leadership have always had to orchestrate the Left's demands on the way to power, only to come to their senses upon attaining it. I have had experience of it by voting Labour in the 1960's, 70s, 80s; right up, in fact, until Blair, who after 13 years of Tory government, broke with such a formula and abandoned Clause IV; the one singular act that he did, for which the nation was eternally grateful for.

                

                I hope (and I really do hope) that Milliband is playing the traditional Labour card of appealing to its traditional voters only to betray them (as the Left always insists their leaders do). But I think it is different this time. The white working class are finished as far as Labour is concerned and they are appealing to a new constituency, one which Tony Blair, the initiator of New Labour brought about when he opened up our borders.

                

               The Miliband Labour Party in government will appeal to two constituencies in order to retain power. The first will be the public sectors workers, who no doubt he learnt from the knees of Gordon Brown, will always vote Labour, which is why Brown added some 300,000 to the public payroll while governing the country.

               

               Secondly, ethnic minorities are now a greater part of the modern Labour constituency. Those white working class red rosette wearing monkeys on Tyne Side and Liverpool; as well as many other white working class constituents in the north and throughout the country, who are still happy to see their votes taken for granted by Ed Milliband; will vote for him next week, and help give him his ticket to power - they will however matter far less in the coming years. The one time white working class family loyalty to Labour is being used in this election to eventually dump them. The party needs them now, but will not need them in the future. The Labour Party is playing upon the idiocy of working class people's sentimentality for the Labour Party.

THIS BRINGS US BACK TO Ed Miliband's promise to redefine Islamaphobia and make it an aggravated crime, which will no doubt be punishable (ultimately) by a prison sentence, if it is to mean anything for those accused of refusing to pay the fine or educational rehabilitation a Marxist like Miliband would seek to impose.

               

                For God's sake, is Ed Milliband so eager to fulfil his father's ambition for him over his brother that he promises to what amounts to be making an almost any unfavourable reference to Islam into an aggravated crime? This is dangerous, and will be met with contempt and opposition; even from the more enlightened of Ed's back benches if, God help us, he becomes prime minister.

                

                Ed Milliband will have gone too far to meet his father's political expectations of him by trying to introduce such a law. Ed's father, as we all know was a Marxist intellectual and lecturer at the LSE and managed to congregate a following in the 1960s and 1970s that tried to (under the Marxian dialectic) to bring an end to capitalism in the UK. So much for the country that adopted him: and so much for the country adopted by Islam when it comes to Islamists.

                

                An aggravated crime for any kind of perceived 'anti-Islamic' comment (for this is what it will lead to if Labour needs the Islamic community to retain power) is totalitarian in its concept and slots perfectly into the ideology of multiculturalism. If Miliband wins, such a piece of legislation should be opposed by all who believe in democracy and free speech; and the many hundreds of thousands who would oppose such a law should immediately break it in print and the social media.

                

                Such a law should make one eager to face the states punishment for breaking it. Only a politician with blood type M (Marxist) coursing through his veins and handed down to him by his parents, would attempt such an outrageous assault on the liberty of the human tongue to speak its mind.

                

                 There are now eight days to go and it is about time that the floating voter stopped floating and spoke up for democracy and decided among themselves that anyone but Labour was the best option for the country – Miliband has, shall we say, issues? The ruthlessness shown toward his brother by making a Faustian pact with the unions in order to service his need for power; when the other parts of Labours Electoral College preferred his brother David, tells us something about the man who will govern us if, come next Thursday, he becomes, via some kind of coalition arrangement; the prime minister of this country.
