This article is an extract from Littlejohns book on the subject. Dont let the fact that it has been serialised by the Mail put you off reading it. It sums up just about everything about  the "New Labour project" better than I ever could. Its difficult to imagine anyone who isnt a dyed in the wool New Labourite disagreeing with much of the content. Its quite a long article but well worth the reading imo.

Excellent read

[Nickbat]

Excellent summary of this discredited, shameful excuse for a government. I cannot understand, for the life of me, how anyone could possibly vote Labour in the forthcoming election.   

[Chris_H]

So good I read it all through.

Don't do that often.

Just a shame he toned it down really!!!

[Lizzie_Zoom]

Absolutely to the point!

But I'm a Conservative so I would say that!  But, no really this article about sums up the dangerous and damaging charade which has made us all suffer since 1997

[STMO999]

I dislike this government as much as the next man, but that is a bit OTT.

[albitz]

Maybe, maybe not  but bear in mind he has scrutinised New labour very closely since its inception.
He has closely followed the characters involved and noted their every lie, turn, u- turn,stealth tax etc. He has predicted much of what they have done before they did it. He had them sussed very early on, when everyone else was still humming "Things can only get better".Personally I think he hits the nail right on the head

[Martin_1962]

Interesting in that he was a supporter and saw it from the inside

[albitz]

I have yet to meet a genuine supporter of the original Labour party who has a good word to say about New Labour.From their perspective their party was stolen from them. About the only connection they have with the original Labour party is John Prescott - a greedy, self serving, ignoramous. It was a coup de tat in the nineties, the party was hijacked by a load of unprincipled charlatans.

the party was hijacked by a load of unprincipled charlatans.

The party was unelectable so they had to improve their image. Still a bunch of winkers though

aah - "the stupid person's Jeremy Clarkson" thought you'd be a fan albs 

Littlejohn always tries to be witty but i rarely find racist homophobes with a history of violence amusing, I do remember his god-awful, car crash of a chatshow with fondness tho 

as usual he's deeply misguided about his own standing if he thinks he could of been elected

I can see nothing racist or homophobic in the article. Are you sure you read the right one, or are you referring to something else?   :-?

[albitz]

Littlejohn was a strong advocate of the the rights of gays/ lesbians to engage in civil partnership.
Hardly the actions of a Homophope ( I hate that word btw)
Although he did get upset over giving gay men the right to have sex with each other in public toilets. If thats "homophobic" count me in.
Being called stupid by someone who posts in so many threads but never actually puts up a counter argument against what he disagrees with, but simply types  sweeping generalisations which by definition dont really say anything and cant really be argued with, thus presumably giving an appearance of having a clue what he is talking about - he make I larf.
 

If a big noise in a big union offer you a candidacy in a safe Labour seat you WILL be the next MP for said constituency, end of.
I suspect Banjax didnt actually read the article, just saw the name of the author and reacted, I have a challenge for you Banjax - read the article, give your counter arguments on the issues raised therein point by point, back it up with some facts.

i'm not summing him up on the strength of one article, i keep my eye on mr Littlejohn - have done for decades, Nick. I can't believe a mainstream newspaper still employs the nasty wee nyaff

OK, so kindly provide me with an example of his racist or homophobic views from elsewhere, then.

You made the allegation...now back it up.
