Tag: Socialist Economic theory will benefit Britain

Socialist Economic theory will benefit Britain. It would be useful in tackling Inflation and the ‘Cost of Living Crisis’. Some aspects of Socialist Economic Theory would certain benefit Britain and challenge the outdated and discredited economics of Thatcherism that Britain seems unable to shake off. The dogmatic ideas of Thatcherism still prevail in British Economics even to this day and they are directly responsible for holding Britain back. They are directly responsible for the current ‘Cost of Living Crisis’ and Britain’s lack of control over it’s own Energy Providers most of which are owned by overseas interests. Come on Britain get a grip and shake off the ghost of Thatcher and move forward by having up to date and relevant Economic policies based on Socialist Economic Theory. Let’s help Britain move forward and make sure Britain is owned by the British people with all that is British working for Britain.

Britain needs Socialism now more than ever before

Tory policies have caused Britain to run aground. Thatcherite policies and values have now backed Britain into a cul-de-sac. There is no route forward any longer and therefore no reason to cling to the values of Thatcherism. Britain has no income and longer is is also bankrupt of ideas. Now the only course of action available to the Tories is to raise levels of government income from taxation. This was inevitable as a result of privatisation of Britain’s assets. Recent Tory governments have relied upon borrowing as a way of shoring up the facade that everything was under control. Then along came Liz Truss who tore down the mirrors to reveal the true horror show that the Tories had created. Truss even managed to make matters worse and that takes some doing.

Starmer threatens the UK Energy Market suggesting a Publicly Owned Energy Provider

Sir Kier Starmer sent a strong message to the UK Energy Providers with an underlying threat made at the Labour Party Conference yesterday. If Labour gets elected it will set up a new publicly owned Energy Provider that will be in direct competition with the current UK Energy Providers. However it will be run for the benefit of the public and not as a privatised enterprise. This was initially my idea that I provided to the Labour Party on 19th October 2017.

Competition is the way forward for the public ownership of Gas and Electricity in Britain

A sure fire way to get the utilities and railways back into public ownership and the less costly way of achieving this.

Yes I admire the ambition of the Labour Party Manifesto and it’s aim to get the Gas and Electricity utilities and railways back into public ownership. Success of this would lead to a more prosperous and fairer Britain and it would be the start of a new era for Britain. Yes it is high time to reverse the failed privatisations of Margaret Thatcher and John Major, and this would be a move which would put Britain on track again. However the scale and the cost of the task is dauntingly enormous and Thatcher knew how difficult it would be to ever go backwards. She tried to make her privatisations irreversible in an attempt to frustrate any attempts to ever develop socialism in Britain. She thought that she had had the final word but despite this there was a fundamental flaw in her plan and one which the Labour Party could exploit if it is savvy enough.
