Well it's not the 1970s now and successive Labour governments have
been exposed before the working class as servants of the bankers and
big cor****ations. Of course in elections where there is a chance that
the Tory party could be returned to power then the call will be for a
vote for Labour as a class vote against the Tories as it was in the
last general election except where the WRP or a left candidate was
standing. Trades Unions will be encouraged to stand their own
candidates. I'm not a spokesman for the WRP and this is just my
interpretation. However now that the financial structure of
capitalism is in serious crisis during the readjustment period
revolutionary situations may occur in the advanced industrialised
countries, IMO.
