Still The City That Dares To Fight

As in the 1980s, Liverpool is proving to be the city that dares to fight. But as in the 1980s, the national Leadership of the Labour Party is proving to be worse than useless in providing any support to that struggle. 

The Labour Party Conference in September may have been cancelled for the safety of all concerned, but it could in fact still be held in one of another Labour local authority’s schools, since we are expected to believe that those will be perfectly safe from as early as 1st June. 

For the sake of his corporate sponsors, Keir Starmer has been demanding an “exit strategy” from the lockdown since even before his coronation. “Herd immunity”, here we come.

The public schools are not going back until September. But to Starmer, time spent with the common herd is of no formative value. We in that herd must insist that no school go back until Eton did, and then only on the same terms, namely that every pupil and every staff member had been tested for Covid-19.
