Didn’t Fail
faith, enormous hard work and sacrifice. I have never met a single person who has told me the story of their life, and claimed that some government program helped them achieve a middle class lifestyle. Equally, I’ve never heard any entrepreneur attribute their success to the hand of government in their lives.
By telling citizens through 13 years of New Labour that all will be well, “we the government will take the bad people away, and redistribute their wealth which they must have gotten through evil means”, New Labour sent the UK back to a childhood. They impoverished our thinking, and weakened the spirit of the average British citizen. They created a new feudal state of the mind which will be their real legacy, and which will take years of work to undo.
“New Labour sent the UK back to childhood. They impoverished our thinking, and weakened the spirit the average British citizen.”
It is an irresponsible parent indeed who puts the family in debt so that the children have to pay more for a good life than they did. It’s an act of active manipulation of the citizenry to not be transparent about the levels of spending and the outcomes of maxing out the credit cards.

The simple fact of the matter is that New Labour could have saved for a rainy day from 1997 to 2007. Instead they invested in public services which we couldn’t afford if we were going to run a balanced budget. As a result, we were well and truly unprepared when disaster hit.
Now, the kids will grow up all right. But it will be a searing and harsh arrival into adulthood.
I’m optimistic that the average 20 year old as he/she approaches 30 will learn the right lessons from the dark years of 1997 to 2010: that there was an inherent inconsistency in New Labour.
Free markets have lifted a billion people out of poverty over the past 25 years. They have the ability to continue to do so. As people become more wealthy, they can in turn solve more social problems.
You cannot believe that people are responsible for the well-being of themselves and their fellow man, and want to rig the system against the bastards. You can’t outsource social justice to the government.
It happens in your
neighbourhood, your school, your church, your family and your office. We will unfortunately always have the bastards with us. They are part of the human condition much as we’d like them not to be.
But the average man does want to be responsible and cares about more than himself. He shouldn’t have been condescended to by New Labour, and his children will learn the hard way that there is no free lunch, only free markets.
