I first agreed to join a political party as a member 27 years ago. I allowed myself to become a member of the Labour Party in Britain.

Never before then had I even applied to become or wanted to become a full fledged, card-carrying member of any political party.

The key reason was that of all the parties that had approached me - and there were quite a few in Britain and elsewhere, I could not find a single one that I could accept. All of those parties I found to be populated and controlled by crooked elements placed in key posts within the formal organisation.

So when I did become a member of the Labour Party in London 27 years ago, I did so with a great deal of reservations. But I made the decision as based on the promises made to me by a very earnest Party bureaucrat at that time.

The promises included a central one – that I would be able to contribute towards the democratisation and the very broad, universally definable socialisation of the party with my efforts and my abilities and my ideas.


Those promises could not be more false.

Not only has it become one of the many perennial nightmares in my encounters with the various agencies of the 'British' state and 'interests' , but trying to even notionally reconcile the ‘Labour Party’ and any of those three aims is in itself extremely distressing and painful.

In the 27 years since I first agreed to become a member of the former Labour Party, I have had not one ‘party’ meeting where even basic thoughtful atmosphere has existed, let alone one where the agenda Brown is quoted to have set out for the former Labour Party today could be allowed to exist.

Throughout the nearly 30 years of my contacts with the various shapes and forms of the former Labour Party, I have seen nothing snorer predominant and overwhelming in the former Labour than the power of greed, of pettiness, of ignorance., of prejudice and of corruption all over the demeanours and the coiennts of the behaviour of the party functionaries and their colluders in place.


The petty, careerist time-serving bureaucrat who had posed to be willing to learn and educate himself as he so zealously approached me to become a Labour party member in 1980 was soon exposed by his immorality, his quick resort to sub-fascistic tactics whenever I attempted to hold any of the functionaries within or in the name of the former Labour party to democratic audit and accountability


That bureaucrat was liar and a racist.

And this applies to most of the post holders and functionaries in the former Labour party. So who is Gordon Brown addressing today?

Is he addressing me? What is it that he is saying to me? That lying is okay. That corruption is okay? that racism is okay in the Labour Party that he remembers? I don't accept that in effect there is a Labour Parity any more.

There is a ghost of what used to be the Labour Party decades ago.

But even in 1986, when the then pro-racist fad, designed and orchestrated by racist within the Labour Party to create a pro-racist atmosphere involving ethnic surrogate stooges and poodles called ‘the black section’ was being paraded, I made the point on the record that it was pro-racist, unethical and immoral and undemocratic that there should a black section within the Labour Party.

One of the mental slaves that had a great deal of personal career yet to make by selling himself as a ‘black section’ leader, made the stupid ‘critique’ that my opposition to the servility of the Labour party Black section amounted to my being a Neanderthal! That ‘critique’ summed up the depth of idiocy that then Labour Party was promoting in its ‘approved and celebrated’ Black Section ‘radicals’.

Those were neither radicals nor were they against the historic racist imperialist role played by the former Labour Party.

Every single one of those servile ones flaunted proudly by the then Labour Party central command is now positioned as a holder of a petty career!

Why says No to Black Section within the Labour Party, as I did in the 1980s? Because the idea of that meant that the main Labour Party – as it even then was – would get away with being a racist and an imperialist party. The ‘burden of racism and imperialism would be shifted on to the shoulders of the servile ‘Blacks section’ ‘leaders’ who would be happy to deride genuine members of the Labour Party for demanding a Party as a whole being committed against racism and against continuing colonialism.

Some of the servile Black sectonists proceeded on to create records of personal corruption that would be hard to find paralleled by any other ‘black leaders’ in any political party in Britain.

A time soon came when most of the ‘black sectonists’ themselves disowned all the slogans that they were crying when they were being given platforms on the mainstream media.

Today’s Party, also called ‘Labour Party’ most of the times in communications between formal memberships, is no longer a party that could resemble even the political atmosphere of a Neil Kinnock Labour party!


What there is today in June 2007 under the same name is a former Party taken over by gangs of criminals and anti-democratic elements mainly engaged n sabotaging society and smashing the values of universal fairness and justice which most of the true members of the Labour Party of old dedicated their times and energies towards setting up and backing.

Those values are now as anathema in the Blaired Party on 10 June 2007 as can be imagined.

Is Gordon Brown sure that he knows what he is talking about?

And even if he does know, does he have the morality and the ethics to actually take on the task and start the process of re-establishing a democratic Labour Party ?
