New Labour plunders Old Labour's History
Let's get one thing straight, when Blair made New Labour he divorced the New Party from the old, he declared it an election liabilty. There is now nothing in New Labour to suggest anything socialist; Blair does not want it that way, neither does Brown nor the Cabinet toadies. Yet, we have David Miliband reported in The Guardian as saying
"Who says the Labour party has a history of animosity towards the countryside?
"I have been sent a quotation from chapter three of Aneurin Bevan's In Place of Fear, no less: 'Where the countryside is neglected it always takes its revenge.
Well that was Old Labour. Come on, get real - Labour does not exist any more.
Anyway, I checked out the said blog, Mr Miliband wanted to put the record straight with regard to the cost of it. The net cost of maintaining the blog costs only £300 a month from a dedicated member of his staff. Looking at the content, the odd short entry here and there, this is tremendously good value because New Labour has very little to say.
