The 'Uniparty' and the legacy of Tony Blair.

 

Margaret Thatcher called Tony Blair and New Labour, her greatest legacy to the country. Blair not only lied us into going into war in Iraq, but he was also the chief architect of Brexit. Blair and New Labour were responsible for the political exclusion of the working-class. They welcomed immigration in 2004 when other E.U. countries placed a five-year restriction on it.

According to the Office for National Statistics (ONS), during thirteen years of a New Labour government, almost 80% of new jobs created in Britain, went to immigrants from Eastern Europe. When Gordon Brown encountered Mrs Gillian Duffy on a council estate in Rochdale, she expressed her concern about the levels of immigration into Britain. He was then heard to call her a "bigoted" woman. 

New Labour failed to understand how society in Britain had changed. They obliterated any mention of the working-class and blurred any distinction between New Labour and the Conservatives and filled their ranks with middle-class MPs. This strategy was known as the prawn cocktail offensive. We were all told to get under Tony's "big tent." 

In 1979, 40% of the Parliamentary Labour Party had done working-class jobs. Today, only around 6 or 7% of Labour MPs, have done working-class jobs. Many working-class traditional Labour voters stopped voting Labour because they felt ignored or they felt there was no difference between Labour or Tory. Many stopped voting altogether or started to vote for UKIP. 

Tony Blair and his modestly named 'Tony Blair Institute for Global Change' are behind the national digital ID scheme that Labour want to introduce to keep us all under surveillance. Blair's institute is funded by tech billionaires like the American Larry Ellison of Oracle, who have a financial vested interest in it. Blair, who is estimated to be worth around £60 million, is also lobbying to end the triple lock that uprates the British state pension and he wants to reform the British state pension because he says it's unaffordable and unsustainable. 

The English historian David Starkey, talks about the 'Uniparty' to describe the pernicious influence that Blairism has had British politics. He basically thinks you can't get a gnat's whisker between any of the mainstream political party’s in Britain?
