Come on Starmer voters, be honest, is this what you voted for?
Liberalism destroyed the left, it was a sticking plaster that allowed the festering wound of capitalism to become gangrenous.
So Labour just sat down with 700 corporate lobbyists and has handed them full powers of autonomy and freedom, where the govt takes a back seat in the form of a ‘secondary role.’
How far they have come... Starmer stated back in 2022 that trickle-down economics “is a piss take”.
In 2021, Reeves stood in front of the Labour party conference and declared that she would be the “first-ever green chancellor”.
2024-2025
In April 2024 6 days into office, Rachel Reeves refused permission for the National Audit Office to carry out an investigation into Englands 48 SEZs and 8 Freeports, despite a House of Commons committee report citing lack of transparency, ignoring the Nolan principles, and serious questions over value for taxpayers money.
This year Reeves sacked the head of the regulatory body the CMA, and replaced him with the former head of Amazon UK, Doug Gurr.
Starmer’s 700 corporate lobbyists comprise the most malign criminally corrupt companies on the planet, Blackrock being the cherry on top of the neoliberal cake.
When neoliberals talk of dismantling ‘big government’ and carving up nations into more manageable pieces under corporate rule, the templates for the deregulatory framework as developed by Brexit architect Shanker Singham specifically for his World Operating System are firmly in place across England, Scotland, and Wales, where companies demand ‘laws as services’.
Starmer and Reeves have, in the space of a few months, reneged on their manifesto and betrayed the Labour Party's core foundations of being a party for ordinary working people.
Liberalism destroyed the left, it was a sticking plaster that allowed the festering wound of capitalism to become gangrenous.
What comes next used to be the stuff of libertarian fringe fantasies, namely deregulated SEZs, Freeports, and charter cities that are going to create modern-day slavery for British citizens.
Forget the National Audit Office, forget the CMA, a wave of in-house Independent Regulatory Committees will ensure that transparency, fairness, and balanced redistribution of GDP will never see the light of day in post-Brexit-zone-fever-plagued Britain.
The goal of neoliberalism is to dismantle big govt because it puts constraints on profit-seeking corporations who do not want to pay their way in taxes and fair wages.
Shocking and worse to come
