It is on; the fight to take Labour further down the road to oblivion.

   After the humiliation of Micheal Foot and the “Biggest suicide note n history,” when Labour challenged Margaret Thatcher, one would have thought that lessons would have been learnt and not go down that road to near destruction again.

   It took a long and winding road for Labour to get back into a position of challenging for power again, and finally, they did, with Blair at the helm. That is Tony Blair, not to be confused with Linda Blair (or even Lionel Blair), the little girl who was possessed in the film the Exorcist (the similarities are close, both were connected to possessed demons, in the case of Tony, it was extreme left-wing fanaticism that possessed his party. Sucking the lifeblood out of it).  But enough of ghouls, ghosts, lies and the Blair Witch Project. This is about the heart and soul of the Labour party and a decent opposition to Boris Johnson’s Churchillian impersonations. So… as I was saying, you would have thought they would have learnt the lessons of the past and built on to the most successful Labour party (sorry, “New Labour Party”) in its history. But, no… not a bit of it.

   After Blair stepped down, he was replaced by his old adversary Brown, who did such an excellent job in trying to move his party more to the left that he handed the role of Prime Minister – on a plate – to the new boy on the block, and a Conservative to boot, David Cameron (ok, in a coalition with the Lib-Dems).

   Brown stepped down, and the battle was on for the hearts and minds of the Labour party. But instead of continuing on the path of success and fortune they (that is Labour & its members) decided to lean even more left by appointing one half of the Milliband double act (the left-one), Ed. From then onwards they were on suicide watch (the party, not Ed).

   Cameron called an election and with the help of Ed’s left-leaning-mentality and won a majority,’ which then enabled him to brush off the shackles of the Lib-Dems around his neck. The fight was now on to find a replacement for the hapless Ed Milliband and his stone of destiny. Instead of doing the intelligent thing, the party decided to pour even more fuel on the flames. To cut a long and tedious story short, they elected an extreme left-wing-capitalist-hating-Marxist. A man who was thawed out from the past and rejuvenated and picked as the best persons to help dig an even bigger hole to bury the Labour party in. Yes, the man they elected was none other than Jeremy Corbyn. A man who has been in Parliament since 1983 (part of the Michael Foot & mouth era). A man who wanted to bring back a bit of nostalgia and destruction back to the Labour party.

   As luck would have it, Cameron resigned (after calling a disastrous Euro plebiscite; well, unfortunate, depending on where one is sitting) and Theresa Green (but only in the summer), or better know as, May, took over.  Ms May decided, in her wisdom, to call a disastrous General election with a disastrous manifesto as her flagship. She didn’t lose (humiliated, yes, but didn’t lose), but Jeremy rose on the backs of unicorns, taking the Labour Party further down an even slippery slope (if that was at all possible).

   June followed May… sorry, Johnson followed May as the leader; eventually, another general election was called (just before Christmas, in the hope that he would be presented with the daddy of all Christmas presents). This time around Corbyn and his cronies were humiliated… stuffed even… they were the dead parrot that had the stuffing knocked out of it. In the process, giving the Tories a thumping majority. A majority big enough for them to rule the roost for many years to come.

  So, what do the self-destruct Labour party do, they continue where they left off with Corbyn still in power. That is until they find a future kamikaze leader (another one… yes!) who wants to go down the same path as the Ed & Jeremy show and put on an even more spectacular display of perversity.

   Names were thrown into a hat of Labour wannabees who wanted to rule the known universe: Thornberry, Lewis, Starmer and Long Baily were all tripping over themselves to be added. What is interesting about those names, they are all part of Corbyn’s shadow cabinet of madness (and inseparability). They all stood on the same manifesto of destruction. Total madness! All in denial, or at the halfway stage of denial, that their policies or their leader weren’t to blame. One of the candidates – Rebecca Long Baily – even gave their disastrous leader 10-out-of-bloody-10 and wishes to continue on the road of burying the Labour Party beyond resuscitation. Would you Adam and Eve it? They still have the dripping blood on their hands of a disastrous election. Is there no shame? No understanding?

   The eagle-eyed amongst you might have noticed that I left out two serious candidates… the more sensible candidacy of Lisa Nandy & Jess Phillips. I left them out for a good reason, while the Labour party are in the grip and control of Momentum, Trokiests, anti-semites and extremism they haven’t got a cat in hells chance of progressing further.

   One would have thought – that is, those intelligent enough to be able to string intelligent lines of thought together – that after failing to win a General election since 1974, they would have learnt some sort of lesson. But, no… they continue to stare into the abyss.

    I know what you are thinking; you (that is me) have got your dates wrong, Labour won, and successfully won a General election in 1997 and held on for ten years. Sorry to disappoint you, but you are wrong. What succeeded in 1997 wasn’t Labour at all, but “New labour,” a party that had amputated, or pushed back, the cancer within it. A “New Labour,” Tory-lite emerged from the smouldering cinders and then like a rising Phoenix, ruled the roost for 10 years. They accepted Tory Economic policies, moved closer to the centre-ground, took on Tory thinking (law and order, etc.). They had no resemblance to the self-destructive party that went before it (and now has raised, once again, its ugly head).

   So we are here at this point in time. The Labour party is at a cliff edge, with two options. Either move further back from tumbling over to one's death or jump and lose any chance of any decent challenge or opposition to Boris Johnson and decades of Tory Rule.

   Simples! And it can’t be any simpler than that. Whatever one’s political stance, we all deserve a decent opposition to hold any Government to account. At the moment we have a Government that is rising to omnipotence and on the other hand a Labour party this diving headfirst into a brick wall of death. Happy times ahead (not!).
