But they have given a bit on gays, and a bit on women, and a bit on equality in the army - a bit . New Labour as an institution is no different to the Tories. If there was a left candidate, to the left of the Labour Party, standing in my constituency, I'd vote for them. So in the Greater London Council election I think I voted Arthur Scargill, even though he's obviously not a serious London candidate. Personally, I am a bit dubious about far left people standing for election, because quite what is achieved by getting fewer votes than the Raving Loonies is beyond me.
New Labour are Tories.
That's the truth of it. I think something like the foxhunting issue might be an attempt to make New Labour look vaguely radical - but then they sunk that as well. At times like this, if you're on the left you've got to stand up and be counted. If you think that the power of the internet could be used for something more than shopping and pseudo-sex, get spiked . All rights reserved.
