The Collapse Of Liberalism Is Good News Because We Can Do Better.
I want to respond to two events. One is the crushing defeat of Labour and the Liberal Democrats in the UK elections. It appears that the Tories could have stolen 20 marginal seats by padding postal ballots. The BBC was surprised when Cameron’s party ran well ahead of their exit polls. I was not.
Labour had taken the point in stealing votes during the Scottish referendum so the SNP abandoned them and the Liberal Democrats. But, if Labour had run a campaign to defend the people against the City of London, no amount of vote rigging could have produced a Cameron majority.
