Core? Blimey!

Peter Oborne writes:

The Tory Party has a desperate problem in the coming months - how to defend a failed economic system that is core to its political beliefs.

Of course, the "free" market is not fundamental - indeed, it is positively inimical - to both principal political traditions in this country.

We represent those traditions are they really are, including their full compatibility, complementarity, and even mutual dependence:

- economically social democratic, and thus incompatible with social libertinism, which is inseparable from economic libertinism;

- morally and socially conservative, and thus incompatible with economic libertinism, which is inseparable from social libertinism;

- and in both cases full of British and Commonwealth patriotism, neither of which can exist without the other, and each of which is incompatible with economic libertinism and social libertinism alike.

That is the core of our political beliefs.

  2. Note that - I am a "mulatto", says a New Labour activist.

    And he is opposed to all three of economic social democracy, moral and social conservatism, and British and Commonwealth patriotism. Well, of course.

    Plenty of readers here know who you are, BDJ. And the rest, lucky souls, will never have any need to. Indeed, has anyone any more?

  3. That sort of racism is illegal.

    "A New Labour activist"?

    A New Labour employee?

    A New Labour approved candidate?

  4. Not for this seat, at any rate. Wrong chromosomes. No wonder he's so vituperative.
