Squatting and welfare provide a vital safety valve for many of the excluded - without which London would be like something out of the 19th century. They probably have a master plan to herd all the homeless into hostels / workhouses and force them to work - but this would be a massive own goal.

A lot of Tory policy is all about finding someone weaker than you or different to you and very publicly beating them up. Then the shit-thick Daily Heil readers all clap and cheer and vote for you. But the last thing they want to do is actually succeed. There always has to be some nonconformist wierdo you can bash - if hippies, minorities, and doleys didn't exist they'd have to invent us. There has to be someone they can scapegoat so the retarded masses can let off a bit of steam - otherwise they might just let off some of that steam in the direction of the ruling class, and we can't have that, can we?

But lately our rulers have taken to believing their own propaganda. They seem to think that difference is actually evil, and that it can be defeated. This sort of extreme intolerance is not a sign of strength. It is a sign of weakness and fear. That is why the riot police wear balaclavas now - to hide their pants-wetting terror.

I have a prediction: if they suceed in creating their perfect conformist society in which everyone is the same, it will start to fall apart the very same day. Because their economics are fataly flawed, their models don't have leeway - and it's the human factor (which they are trying to eliminate) that saves the system from collapse.

The government are increasingly rabid and out of touch. But take heart! That is their very weakness.
