The Big Society, Indeed

I was a volunteer for Macmillan before I myself became too ill to do it. But in much of the country, it is largely kept going by Tories, as are lots of other things like it.

Do all those Tory voters, activists and councillors support the withdrawal of their libraries, their bus services and all the rest of it, including benefits to people still recovering from cancer and not yet given the all clear? Really? I don't think so.

No wonder that the uniformly Blairite media are determined to ignore Ed Miliband, otherwise 2015 could be Labour's biggest victory ever, but using entirely the wrong script. And we can't have that. Can we?
