Not that there was any such admission on Newsnight from the man who brought you the Myth of Militant, which so obscured the real rise of Trotskyism and other sectarian Leftism in fashionable London, and in and around academia, that it was able, having long moved on tactically from economics to the culture wars, to take over first the Labour Party and then the country (now including the Tories).
Pretty much every Hard Left social and cultural aim has now been achieved and become a matter of cross-party "consensus", although there is still a bit of constitutional tidying up to do...
By contrast, a few months ago, I heard a radio interview with Derek Hatton in which he explained, entirely matter-of-factly, his pride at having built so many "council houses with gardens front and back". How very Herbert Morrison.
Anyway, Crick's Cameron-directed campaign to remove the last moral and social conservative from the Tory front line has failed. Coverage? What do you think?
