At Stake

The Labour Party is advertising for a "Head of External Relations and Stakeholders" with, "experience of working with senior politicians and a wide range of senior stakeholders, including celebrities." Labour has reverted to its historical norm as the party for people who were far more right-wing than the Tory Boys at university, even though some of those were literally Fascists in the technical sense of the word, but who were also far cooler than they were within the definition that was accepted by popular culture in general. The Conservatives cornered that market and its celebrity endorsements under David Cameron, but he now looks as much of an aberration as Jeremy Corbyn was.

What are these celebrities endorsing? The Labour Party now requires absolute and overriding fealty, both to a specific supranational body (the one that waged the war in Libya, among its other great successes), and to a specific foreign state that, by the way, is not a member of that supranational body. You cannot even join the Labour Party without the approval of one of that foreign state's spies, who is not even a British citizen. I know of no other party, anywhere in the world, like this. But remember, it is the Left that is unpatriotic. Of course it is.
