‘Raised in a strict Labor trade unionist family to whom not voting Labor was a crime akin to child abuse…’

writes Julie Burchill:

I now find myself repulsed by the antics of New Labor. (…)

New Labor has also been responsible for introducing an open-door policy on immigration from Eastern Europe, principally Poland, thus creating an endless pool of cheap labor which has undone all the hard-won progress the British trade union movement made since World War II in earning a fair day’s pay for a fair day’s work. (Not surprisingly, the bosses’ organization, the CBI, is just about the only voice in favor of uncontrolled immigration.) Many Eastern European immigrants have brought with them a racist attitude to Jews, blacks and Asians, which has further added to the pressure-cooker atmosphere of many inner-city multicultural schools.

ADD TO this Labor’s ceaseless pandering to the growing Muslim vote which has led it to give thousands of pounds of government money to organizations which may support extremism. This at a time when British synagogues are regularly graffitied by Islamists. There’s no way I’m going to be putting my cross in the Labor box.
