Academic questions – needn’t be answered. No one knows why.
We could generalise this question without going off thread. For example, the SPGB at one time argued that a rise in unemployment would follow from the introduction of a minimum wage. This hasn’t happened. Or has it?
Hamilton wants to see more homes with solar panels. Hamilton is a self-employed heating engineer specializing in the fitting of solar panels. Hmmm.
Interesting dunghill of policies.
Ghastly photograph on the front page of the Times today. Some sort of perverse victory for feminism I suppose.
Not so long ago predicted a war between Russia and Turkey (which would have involved NATO). There isn’t going to be a Third Great War.
Start digging that fall-out shelter.Well this is in bad taste isn’t it? And from a moderator too!
A bank holiday some time during the summer would be nice.
And what about all the Russian capitalists who own expensive properties in London? They wont want them knocked about by Russian atom bombs. Blistered paintwork, the odd cracked window pane and what have you. Would be a bit of an own goal there.
So if nothing else Greater London ought to be all right. Well, the swankier parts.Given the brutal realities of capitalism, Steamer and his crew may find themselves reneging on its promises to the capitalist class. Poor things.
Why do Labour make appeals to these people? After all, in terms of number of votes they are little more than a skid-mark on the gusset of the big knickers that is the electorate.(Delicious metaphor).I can’t see Mr Biden attacking Iran. After all he is an old man who has never had any military training as far as I know, and therefore would be no match for the Iranian army. Besides a man of his age would look ridiculous tripping about like the sugar-plum fairy in military fatigues.
I fancy his chances against Russia tho’.My old mother was an extra in the 1960’s BBC docudrama The War Game, playing ‘dead housewife supine on the sidewalk’. Sadly, she was so badly charred it was impossible to distinguish her from the other corpses so her acting career ended there.
I wonder if capitalism’s ideologists adhere to some theory that it is no bad thing for the working class to have the Brad Pitts put up it every now and again, as some obscure means of social control or something. If so, I would like to hear the theory plainly stated.
To be fair to Steamer, on that leaflet you could swap his name for almost any bougeois politician in the ‘democracies’ and it would still make sense. Politicians are devious and power mad – who knew?
At a state dinner given for Nixon, a US diplomat asked Mao what would have happened if Khrushchev rather than Kennedy had been assassinated. Mao thought for a bit and replied: I don’t think Mr. Onassis would have married Mrs Khrushchev.
Although indifferent to the suffering of millions of peasants thanks to his agricultural policy, Mao did have a sense of humour.
