THE 4TH. WAY.
Tom Paine. | 14.07.2003 09:29 | London
As Phoney's 3rd. way has landed us in an unwinable guerilla war, botched NHS, Transport and Education, we need to move to the 4th. way.
Gordon Brown is the 4th. way.
He must take over now.
Phoney's lies are getting more far fetched and complicated every day.
Now he has Adolf Rumsfeld trying to cover for him.
Adolf says: "The uranium intelligence does not rise to the level of a Presidential speech
to Congress"
Phoney says:" It does rise to the level of a Prime Minister's speech to Parliament".
So now, our Parliament can accept fabricated intelligence (written and verbal)from a bunch of P4 gangsters in Italy as a reason for going to war.
If that's Phoney's level of respect for the British Parliament and electorate then he must go now.
He will be lucky if he's not charged with war crimes.
If he stays, then the Labour Party will be unelectable by the time of the next election.

How can I patent the term "the fifth way"? We'll be needing it soon...

Your articles tend to be somewhat over-simplistic, over-personalising structural trends that run a lot deeper than whether or not the country or the Labour Party is headed by a "pathological liar". I believe you even once told us Blair was schizophrenic (yep here it is: I will skate over your innacurate, ignorant and prejudiced appropriation of psychiatric terms).
Tony Blair's mental condition is, for the most part, irrelevant. Every attempt to reform capitalism by electing leaders 'sympathetic' to the working class, beginning, actually, with the social democracy of the 'second way', must necessarily fail. Mandelson is currently making trouble, recruiting luminaries like Clinton, Mbeki and Giddens to breathe life into a rejuvenated third way. In what respects will Red Gordon offer anything significantly different or better, pray tell?

Who is this naive Gordon Brown groupie? Does he not recall Broon declaring in March that he would spend "as much as it takes" on the Iraq adventure, while denying the firefighters a living wage?
And let us not forget that Gordo is also the man who proposed teaching impressionable school kids about the wonders of capitalism by getting "business leaders" to address classes.
The man is like all the reactionary social democratic "left" - he worships big biz and goes weak at the knees when faced with corporate power. Or any power except workers' power, come to that.
Please please please do not think that "Gordon will make everything OK" - this is the classic cop-out of trusting new leaders to be different from the last - IT NEVER WORKS!
I was at the Labour left's "Save Our Party" conference the other weekend and one trade unionist, I forget who, summed it up when he said that it's no good changing the captain of the Titanic when the ship is still heading towards the iceberg.
Don't trust politicos, don't believe in a party to do your dirty work. The task of liberating the workers is the task of the workers themselves.
