Oh dear!….. How Labour has changed.

I don’t often write about English parties but today I felt that somebody has to say something, as this affects Scots to.

The once proud party of the working class people has become so right wing it is surpassing the Tories!

But then what else can you expect with a Knighted Leader at the helm?

What now for the working class people of Britain?

Another party needs to emerge, one rooted in Left Wing Politics. My mind goes back to the weeks following the day Jeremy Corbyn was elected Leader, their membership soared! So there is a gap to fill.

Today Labour like other parties will be out canvassing in Rutherglen & Hamilton, I wonder if those doing so for Labour know these words have been spoken? Talk about shooting oneself in the foot.

Fortunately, here in Scotland we have the opportunity to change the whole system to one specially designed to meet the needs of all. No more top down but a level-playing field.

Top-down has proved to be disastrous for those at the bottom of the financial ladder and on benefits. No one in any country, let alone one that is ranked the 6th most wealthy should have to rely on benefits, and it’s not just the unemployed, we now have working poor!

Time to press the eject button, go it alone and start again with a blank sheet to fill with policies that benefit Scotland. We have the talent, we have the brains and we have the vision!

To see what we can be follow the Salvo trail.
