Theresa May's call for an election is undoubtably a tactic to put the Tory party into power not just for another five years but possibly for an eternity, which will end in the complete and utter desimation of the British political system. They will entrench their base so firmly the UK will never ever be the same again. At the same time the inability of multiple parties other than the Tories to understand a necessity to make Tories redundant is stronger than every in our history feels like it is falling on deaf ears. To win an election the middle ground must be fought and gained, dividing the population into rich and poor will only alienate all those electors who fall between the two or who are oxymorons of political views. For lets face it were we just black or white then it would be simple, it's not.
Corbyn's latest speech for his campaign has centred on two aspects of the voting electorate, first he has yet again highlighted the divide between rich and poor and championed himself for the poor and working classes and secondly because he has sided with the young who fail to vote, going so far as to cite that forty percent of those between 18 and 25 don't vote. Never in my life time have I witnessed a time where there is not a politician and especially political group which do not represent me. Although I see myself as left leaning, I also see myself in many respects as a social democrat and also acknowledge in order for the country to be productive the business makers must be given assistance. That we need and require a manufacturing base just as much or even more than a banking sector. So in one sense my political view is a diaspora of collective views pulled into one. I strongly disagree with how public services have been decimated, the education system being farmed out by side stepping privatisation, how the welfare state is being degraded into a pauper state and how the health system is now being made into a death by default sustenance system. In each case, it is only those who can afford to pay for their own education, health care or services who are able to take advantage and keep the advantage. In a perverse way it is also obvious social migration has become harder and harder. If you are poor now it is likely you will stay poor until you die. The state and the systems in place are provided to keep you at bay and to never climb out of it. For every working moment possible must be used just to be able to live. Yet remarkably in the UK we have seen massive migration levels, with net migration at approximately 300,000 per year. As people come to the UK they look for a better life however, the life style of the UK is rapidly depressing, it is now getting so tough it will not be long before the UK is the poorman of Europe and we may even see the likes of migrant EU nationals returning to their own countries.
The solution is in the middle ground, get that right and the politicians will succeed in influencing voters. Pity they have all got it wrong.
