 You mentioned this before and I must admit I do think you are onto something with the importance of a future Labour govt being a success, as I do think otherwise something more radical will be looked at.
 
 I don't think parties on the rise across Europe are actually as many on the left would characters them (see my post above) but they are clearly something different from the status quo of centre-right and centre-left post-war western European governments.
 
 I don't think Labour will be any more of a success than the current govt btw, because as I've consistently said, we keep misdiagnosing the problem, so we won't solve those problems, so make of that what you will, but that's another thread entirely.

 When a post in the thread talks about a right wing Tory mp (who incidentally is far too right wing for me, and the thought of her being Tory leader after the election is really beyond the pale) in the same breath as the gestapo you know it's past it's sell by date.
 
 
 
 You are a tory

 Did you see the LBC interview with Liz Truss? - maybe you should watch it, in order to get both sides of the story. I watched it - and there are definitely two sides to the story.

 The conference resumes today, no doubt with a spring in it step and with a greatly increased number of people having read up about it, because the Belgian courts have cited that:
 
 “...everyone [has] the right to assemble peacefully”.
 
 Bloody fascists!

 The one side of the story is she's a barking mad right wing nutcase
 
 My view is she's worse than that
 
 Started off as a Liberal

 The Natc mob in Brussels yesterday are borderline white supremacist nutcases
 
 Have a read of their Statement Of Principles ........its been argued its not far off what the nazis started with in the 1930s ......and it's worrying
 
 This court ruling they just won was funded by an American right wing Christian collective
 
 But there you go .......you want your free speech
 
 And you think they are deffo NOT far right and taking the piss out of them for being like the SS , Gestapo etc is really nasty and not very nice
 
 A lot of very wet behind the ears stuff on here

Only the other day Bob was going on about GB News for example and then later admitted he doesn't watch it), but to seek to shut down alternative views is something else entirely.
 
 They will characterise them as something they aren't, littered with language like "Hitler",  "Nazis" and the now ubiquitous"Far-Right" - a label about as devalued as a Venezuelan Bolivar - and then present themselves as honourable in standing against it, but they aren't, because the characterisation is false - a straw man. It happens in the other direction too, where things are labelled as "communist", "fifth-column" and the like.
 
 And again, the irony of cheering the police closing down a peaceful political conference whilst denouncing "fascism" is so obvious you need to wear sun glasses to read CCMB as its almost blinding.
 
 
 
 You are either incredibly ill informed on the far right or being silly for the sake of it
 
 Moderate tory is one thing
 
 You wouldn't get Ken Clarke or John Major attending one of these Hitler youth rallies
 
 These people are very dodgy

 Again, you are the one praising the police for trying to close down a peaceful political conference. People in glass houses really shouldn't throw stones.
 
 People are allowed to have a different opinion to you.

 Hitlers fascists started off in exactly the same way in the 1930s
 
 Far more intelligent analysts than me ...or even you .....although that's clearly not possible ....have looked at the NATC glossy policy statements and come to the same conclusion
 
 They talk about the triumph of Christianity,  preserving culture
 
 What do you think that means if not supremacy ?
 
 I mean freedom of speech is one thing but this lot are skating on thin ice
 
 Do your ego a favour and leave it in the fridge for an hour and look into the members and their ......using the term loosely .....policies
 
 Get back to me and try and argue its just a jolly day out for a few union Jack types and their European chums
 
 Look forward to it

 I managed forty five minutes (which I reckon I deserve a medal for) and then had to give up. She’s utterly self absorbed and she’s deluded when it comes to the “establishment” in this country. She was feeble when asked to explain her switch from Lib Dems to Conservatives and, although she was more coherent than she ever was as Prime Minister, I still spent much of the time wondering what she was talking about.
 
 Of course there are two sides to the story, she’s never going to admit to being wrong, so you’ve got her on one side of the argument and the rest on the other (I’m not being serious there by the way, but even huge tracts of her own party don’t agree with her).

 I can't see anything that remotely justifies your references or Nazism, far right, goose stepping and white supremecy.
 
 Thats because your accusations is ridiculous. The event doesn't need to be to your entire agreement, but we live in a liberal world where different opinions can be shared.
 
 No thanks to people like you it seems, who revel in the police shutting down meetings,  despite the prime minister and legal system disagreeing with that position.

 She should be preserved in aspic....so that she could cause the least amount of damage to poor unsuspecting souls.

 It's here.
 
 https://nationalconservatism.org/nat...ls-2/schedule/
 
 I also saw the list of speakers, including a few Asian and black speakers who will be gutted to learn that Judge Sludge has deemed them white supremacists
 
 https://nationalconservatism.org/nat...rmed-speakers/
 
 Had no idea it was taking place until yesterday of course.

		You are going to have to do better than just Google the name of the organisation and post a link to yesterday's piss up 
 
 I wanted you to read their background and policies so you can discuss your assertion that there's nothing sinister about them
 
 So what are the organisations directions ?
 
 You are happy with these ?
 
 You are aware of the economic league .....because I told you about them
 
 This lot talk about protecting identity and Christian European culture in a capitalist framework

 I looked at it yesterday, lest I said something ridiculous like they are all Nazis or white supremacists or something.
 
 Again, classic Sludge, putting words in people's mouths. No one has said anything about Nick Griffin. Ive merely agreed with the Belgian courts and Belgian prime minister that a peaceful political conference should be allowed to proceed without police interference. That's all I've said and it's a rational, liberal and democratic position to take.
