Imagine it’s this time next year. The revolution has happened and the new socialist world is a week old.
What will you be doing?
What will you no longer be doing?
Apart from the street parties, what visible signs will there be of the new society?
I know that the weekend before I'll be rushing around trying to spernd all my money before it becomes useless.

Apart from the street parties, what visible signs will there be of the new society?Writing my resignation to the party.Doing the weekly shopping.No rush hour, no school runs, half empty shops of goods and people, not so many planes flying overhead, monuments being torn down, countless community meetings taking place, splashes of colour and works of art everywhere, empty spaces being turned into community gardens.That's just for starters.
I'll probibly scrat about in the bottom of the pantry, looking for the bottle of single malt (balvenie double wood 17 year) which I had salted away for a VERY special occasion, only to remember I had drank it in 2016, when Sunderland A.F.C. did the trebble (winning the F.A. Cup,League Cup and topping the league) ……………………….. well ?

Form the Capitalist Party of Great Britain with the aim of handing over the earth to a tiny minority and organising production for profit instead of human need. Convince people that this would bring about division, hunger, poverty, crime and war. See how many I can convince. Should be simple enough! Could even speak at Hyde ParkOnly kidding, probably share a single malt with northern light, put my feet up and think 'job well done'
Will the traffic lights still be switched on? I'll be going through a few reds. Safely, of course. Wheee!
