Best speech of 26 March TUC demo: Dave Nellist


Dave Nellist's speech 26 March

On the day's violence by young protesters looking at long term unemployment while the rich get obscenely richer, he said:
To the union leaders and the politicians, unless you seriously have a strategy to take on this government and its austerity programme, you are going to consign another generation in this century (1970s) down the blind alley of terrorism. Because that's the beginnings of that road.

The violence we saw on Saturday is born from desperation of the weak, not some bored whim. The violence that wrecks lives is coming from the state run in the interest of a shrinking number of super-wealthy. Why don't the media and politicans get as worked up about that?

Ed Miliband tools up for TUC anti-cuts rally

Har, har! Garbo speaks!

Ed Miliband's team have announced that Glorious Leader will be addressing the subject of Tory cuts at the TUC demo but will not march with the march in March.

And Baroness Warsi has a fit like Linda Blair in full Exorcist mode with term-of-the-day, 'deficit deniers', flying 360 degrees.

That's some spin, Baroness, but third grade alliteration won't help you now that SuperEd is out of the trap and on the case. OK, I exaggerate a tad, hope over experience and all that, but a gurl can dream.

Really, Baroness. 'Deficit denier'? The Tory LibDem argument has been so sheer, thin and transparent that '9 denier' barely covers it.

Bankers beware, shady Blairite scum take cover, for the Nice Man Cometh.
