Some of us warned the Labour right would prefer Labour defeat to unity behind a socialist not because of individual failings but because their 1st loyalty is to the liberal wing of the establishment. The line between us & them has always run down the middle of the #LabourParty >
Maybe it’s time the left took note of who, like liberal left weather-vane Owen Jones, either fed disastrous illusions in ‘Labour unity’ or in supposedly clever strategic co-existence with Labour centrists & those of us who urged their complete routing & ousting, now proven right>
It’s no use whining like Aaron Bastani that anyone with decency “will lose” to these people because they play by “different rules.” #LabourLeak shows their principal ‘rule’ was fighting unreservedly for British establishment interests. Why aren’t we fighting as clear sightedly >
& as implacably for undiluted working class interests whether our enemies wear red or blue ties? This isn’t a game of cricket, nor are there Marquis of Queensbury rules. The one rule that matters most is, what’s in the interests of our class? Time to wake up to class struggle
