Yesterday evening I was on the 'frontline' of the end of the failed
fabian experiment in Westminster. The dregs of the student protests were
still being kettled, Police had helicopters up, tube stations closed
and vans full of back up, yet they still managed to drive a couple of
VIP's into the middle of this maelstrom of heightened emotions.
This morning Boris and Stephenson of the Met were having a discussion
on Radio 4 about yesterday, was it just me or was Stephenson making a
lot of threats about how 'tooled up' his men were. Was he seriously
advocating that the Met start shooting protestors ?
I saw bizarre sights such as 'anarchists' demanding more state subsidy for education. How does that work then ?
Labour created a massive expansion of the State that was built on
nothing more than a bubble, to have 50% of the young 'doing a degree'
was only going to devalue standards and to damage the marketability of
having a degree. There is nothing left that the hard pressed taxpayer
can contribute to a 'bust' state. What we saw on the streets was nothing
more that demanding money with menaces, and Labour were at the front of
this egging it on, as usual bearing no responsibility for their
actions.
Meanwhile at the National Liberal Club a quiet revolution was occuring organised by the Cobden Centre. Libertarians, Members of the Adam Smith Institute
and other representatives of Classical Liberal organisations met for an
informal social event to make contacts, talk and make futue plans. The
talk was was of honest money, Mises and Hayek and of course the failing
Euro experiment.
The keynote speech was by Conservative MP Steve Baker, one of the few 'good guys'.
The Toast was to Cobden's vision of 'Peace and Free Trade'
Fabianism has failed, the Labour party derided Cobden the result is an impoverished nation and war.
For one battered Liberal (not the fake 'Liberal' Democrats) the long
march is now on its second faltering step.
I hope that you will join us in rebuilding 'Liberal' Britain.

I'm not entirely sure why the devaluing of a degree is justification for imposing a cap on how many people go to university. I'm also extremley wary of the notion that 80% of the country will somehow manage to become millionaire plumbers.
I am also extremely uneasy about a government deciding to levy a tax on a segment of the population that has had no opportunity to vote when they could have levied the tax on anyone who had had the benefit of a unviersity education. It seems to me that the latter, while it would be yet another raid on the tax payer, would have been a far more fair and 'we are all in this together' style way of paying for university cuts.
This system just hammers anyone who works hard at university while propping up the braying horsey girls who study useless english lit and history of art degrees and then grab a hubby 18 months post graduation.
It is a complete mess. And the irony of the Tories pushing it through with the help of scottish mps that they would previously have been up in arms about is not lost either.
