The common sense that the British media has manufactured is no doubt very powerful and I have also little doubt that Ed the Red Milliband will follow the script that dictates neo-liberalism's offensive against the working class must be maintained. Cockburn's little anecdote about 'Is your hate pure?' that Lou posted on his blog is very well taken. Ed Milliband hates no one it seems, with the possible exception of his late father. He is then Britain's Obama in waiting. Least ways that is his ambition. But I think he will miss his Obama moment. The class anger and hatred that the cuts will produce will sweep this slimy little opportunist away. He may try of course to reinvent himself as a defender of the working class. But I think this Obama wannabe has come to late to the feast. The original Obama himself is floundering around now trying to find the change that anyone at all can believe in. comradely Gary ________________________________________________ Send list submissions to: Marxism@lists.econ.utah.edu Set your options at: http://lists.econ.utah.edu/mailman/options/marxism/archive%40mail-archive.com
