:rolleyes:The Labour Party was built on Socialism Dave The Tory Party built on Capitalism now which has changed the most:rolleyes:

Re: Market Hall Refurbishment
 

It's not a matter of who's changed the most, they've all changed to try & reap the benefits. At one point a party would make a policy endex, no ifs or buts that is it we will not waver !

Now, well we'll take that & maybe add this to it, take that from it & come up with something that's neither fish nor fowl, they've sold out & taken the middle ground in the hope of appealing to a wider spectrum.

Look at the modern crop of Politicians, their parties & policies, so much is a dilution and/or an absorption of another parties policies that they are all readily interchangeable with each other. The exception being those old Dinosaurs pushed to the outer edges of their chosen gangs comfortable little community because they're unhappy with the way their party has capitulated & accepted mediocrity in their politics & precepts.

Re: Market Hall Refurbishment
 

That's the problem , Jaysay , the Labour Party are finding it hard to come up with a new philosophy now that they are totally behind Capitalism . Tony Blair played with words when he retained the word Socialist after scrapping Clause 4 .

They are suffering from an identity crisis and haven't a clue in which direction to go .

Hence we get such in-depth discussions like Council Meeting Butties .

The retention of the unilateral nuclear deterrent for one .

Re: Market Hall Refurbishment
 

The Labour Party isn't unilateralist now. It was at one time of course.

Re: Market Hall Refurbishment
 

Since when ?

Gordon Brown announced the Labour governments intention to replace Trident when they became obsolete with new Tridents .

When was this policy changed ?

Re: Market Hall Refurbishment
 

I don't think it was Marx or Engels that arrived at the economic truth that 'If you look after the pennies, the pounds look after themselves'.

It was probably some wise and successful housekeeper, facing savage cuts.

Re: Market Hall Refurbishment
 

I'm losing track here. Are they going to nuke the Market Hall ?

Re: Market Hall Refurbishment
 

When you hear the siren Lancsdave, run like hell to the balcony in the Market Hall.

It's a protected area.

It's the only way you'll survive the fallout.

Re: Market Hall Refurbishment
 

I'm with you on that one Dave. From market hall refurbishment to nuclear deterrant in one thread. :eek::eek::eek::confused:

Someone doesn't like my quotes on this thread tonight .

I have received 2 red karma since posting them .

But he/she/they haven't the decency to leave a name .

Re: Market Hall Refurbishment
 

Quite an art form.

Now Knitty Nora's residency in the Market Hall has ended, perhaps we should apply for funding for them to take her place.

Care in the community art.


:rolleyes:

Re: Market Hall Refurbishment
 

Apologies,I read your post wrong. I read it as if you meant unilateral as in no nuclear weapons. Although it could be said trident is linked to American capabilities. So I suppose it's not truly unilateral in that sense.

Re: Market Hall Refurbishment
 

There are lots of threads, crying over loss of karma, in other sections of the forum.

Let's try and keep to the subject of this thread, at least marginally.

when they send nuclear bombs they don't put a little message on them saying 'With Love from ' :D
