George Osborne's Car Crash Interview

If a confrontation with Paxo or Brillo is like going ten rounds with a grizzly bear, spending time on Andrew Marr's sofa is the political equivalent of a smooch by a pound puppy. Yet this giver of the most gentle of interviews had George Osborne on the ropes in seconds.



Of course, if you ask Dan Hodges this is all part of a master plan. We're told there's a genius essence at work beneath the appearance of dogmatism and rank incompetence.

In fact, the Tories' rare foray out of the gutter again underlines a campaign that is deeply dysfunctional. The pledge to squash inheritance tax on homes worth up to £1m isn't exactly an original idea. It featured in their 2010 manifesto but was one of the policies traded in for LibDem support. It's not really an eye-catcher either, with the ever-helpful IFS pouring scorn on the proposal. However, as far as the Tories are concerned they can't be picky. Taking a leaf out of Nigel Farage's core vote shoring up operation during the leaders' debate, Conservatives are trying desperately to woo back Daily Mail types obsessed with property values. Bugger the floating voter, Dave and Osborne are hoping enough of their current and former support will vote and push them over the line so the implicit centre left alliance don't get chance to lock them out of power. This is the alleged political genius of the chancellor at work.

A naked electoral gimmick it is, at least it's doable. At least the Tories have placed their costings of the proposal before media and public scrutiny. The same cannot be said for the £8bn extra for the NHS. Panicked by Labour's non-dom proposals, and now the £7.5bn crackdown on tax dodging they needed another dead cat to throw at 24 hour rolling news and quick. And like Fallon's ill-received attack on Ed Miliband, the superficially attractive spending commitment has misfired spectacularly. As Osbo found out, saying there's a magic money tree due to blossom over the coming years doesn't wash. This is particularly stupid as one of their main lines of attack is Labour profligacy. However, while the opposition have been scrupulous in ensuring all its pledges are costed and paid for, the Tories have forgot to check their own sins before casting their hail of stones.

What a sorry, pathetic spectacle.

West Midlands Tory Party Shambles

I was out doing my bit for the Tories' coming defeat in Stafford yesterday with Kate Godfrey and the local Labour team. As we were busily knocking on doors and stuffing letter boxes, Kate bumped into a postie out on his rounds. And what he had to say was very interesting.

For once, the posties were relatively pleased with the Tories. Royal Mail had authorised Saturday overtime to deliver their election address. This wasn't the free distribution each candidate standing is entitled to as part of our postal service's contribution to the democratic process. This was something the Tories had purchased. Not surprising considering how thin their activist base is these days.

One problem. It never showed up. The thousands of glossy leaflets due for delivery did not turn up at the local office. So, in effect, dozens of posties enjoyed their Saturday doing their shopping and perhaps having a flutter on the nags while being paid overtime rates for it. Well done the Tories.

That's not the end of the story. It seems this failure of delivery didn't affect just Stafford, but a good chunk of the West Midlands too. Doing that would cost well over £100,000, and one assumes that because they missed the deadline the Tories will have to fork out the same again if they want this piece of literature on people's doormats.

So not only is the Conservative campaign falling apart politically, they can't even have a leaflet ready in time. What a complete shambles.

Saturday Interview: Andy Newman

Andy Newman is a GMB activist who's recently moved to Corsham from Swindon. He will be best known to long-time readers as the proprietor and main contributor to Socialist Unity. Andy is also Labour's parliamentary candidate for Chippenham, for which he has a campaign blog. You can also follow him on Twitter here.



Why did you decide to apply for a Labour PPC position?

I am GMB branch secretary for Wiltshire, and I am highly conscious that working people and the trade unions would greatly benefit from more Labour councillors on Wiltshire County Council. I have also moved to Corsham in the constituency, for personal reasons, and I wanted to help energise the local CLP towards winning achievable goals at the next local elections.

And how are you finding the campaign in Chippenham?

There has been a high degree of involvement from party members, which I am pleased about, and a good team spirit. The key measure though is that we have managed to deliver strong support for our twinned seat in South Swindon, where I believe we have to win if we are going to see a Labour government.

Are there any issues that keep coming up?

National issues regarding precarious employment, zero hour contracts, low wages and lack of affordable housing, are exacerbated in rural areas, where transport costs are an extra £1000 per family per year, and childcare costs an extra £600. I have also had the opportunity to represent the party on rural and agricultural affairs at regional hustings and on BBC Wiltshire, and I am surprisingly knowledgeable on technical issues like rural broadband roll-out, the threat to the national pollinator strategy by neonicotinoids, problems with the Rural Payments Agency, and the role of the Grocery Code Adjudicator, etc.

The biggest local issue is the controversial plan by the Range chain of stores to open a distribution centre on the edge of Chippenham, which would bring 1000 jobs, and leverage Chippenham’s geographical advantage. We discussed this in the CLP, and resolved that provided our concerns about environmental impact and the nature of the jobs were addressed, then we would support the proposal. I spoke to the national distribution manager, who confirmed that the workforce would include around 700 permanent jobs on proper contracts, and £7.00 per hour, along with more skilled jobs in driving, training and management.

On that basis I have come out in favour of the Range development, the only candidate to do so, and it has proven divisive! My take on it is that there is a clear class bias, that when I speak to working class people there is broad support for the development, for the jobs, and an understanding that it will push up wages. Those opposed, in my view, are both NIMBY and unsympathetic to the fact that there have to be manual jobs in the economy, as well as white collar jobs.

It's 8th May and you've been elected. What would your constituency priorities be?

In that unlikely event ... I think there needs to be a stronger voice in the Labour Party for rural communities.

To be honest, I don’t think that it is necessary to be an MP to have a political impact, and on 8th May, my main priorities will be the same whether I am an MP or not. I believe that the driver of progress is the building of communities of solidarity, which underpins a philosophy of working towards the common good.

Do you find blogging and social media useful for campaigning?

I find that writing is always a good mechanism for developing my understanding, though often nowadays this doesn’t lead to a finished and publishable article.

Twitter is useful, but I don’t get on with Facebook.

Are you finding your "normal" blogging at Socialist Unity is taking a backseat?

Strangely, although the number of new articles has slackened off, SU still has a very solid readership, consistently more, for example, than Left Futures.

I am pleased at what SU has achieved over the years. We helped to stop the SWP traducing George Galloway when there was the crisis in Respect. We exposed the whole SWP “Comrade Delta” affair (“Delta” started as “Comrade Gamma”, but it didn’t sound right), We exposed and helped to prevent the Islamophobic extremist Anne Marie Waters become a Labour candidate, We stood with Tommy Sheridan during the libel trial. We articulated progressive arguments for a NO vote in the Scottish referendum, and we correctly warned that Western intervention by proxy against Gaddafi and Assad would lead to disaster. Amongst all that, we have explored the idea of labourism, national identity, islamophobia, and multiculturalism.

I hate to disappoint our many critics, but SU will continue, and I hope to have more time for writing after the election.

Apart from All That Is Solid, are there any blogs or other politics/comments websites you regularly follow?

I genuinely do read “All that is Solid”, and Left Futures, and that is about it.

I think that the phenomenon of blogging with its concept of an online community or affinity group has passed.

I understand why most successful blogs are run by professional journos now, because being both an activist and a blogger does throw up difficult issues of confidentiality, and discretion.

Are you reading anything at the moment?

The anthology Blue Labour. I will be writing an appraisal shortly.

Do you have a favourite novel?

Not really a favourite. I enjoy anything by Paul Auster, but I usually find works of fiction a bit disappointing. The novel that I most enjoyed recently was Ken Macleod’s Intrusion.

Can you name a work of non-fiction which has had a major influence on how you think about the world?

I read a lot of non fiction, and I cannot blame any particular books for the resulting synthesis. One book I found most satisfying was Justin Lin’s The Chinese Economy Demystified, and I would also recommend Otto Bauer’s underrated classic, Social Democracy and the National Question.

Who are your biggest intellectual influences?

My own experience of trade unionism is probably the shaping force of my intellectual outlook, I certainly owe a debt to RH Tawney, and also Eric Hobsbawm. I also think that the Christian tradition in our culture underpins the concept that everyone is equally worthy of respect “for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God”.

What was the last film you saw?

Home. The last film I saw that I enjoyed was Paddington. I haven’t yet seen Selma; and the best film I have seen in recent years is Lincoln.

How many political organisations have you been a member of?

My political history is all out these on the Interweb.

Is there anything you particularly enjoy about political activity?

The process of helping other people grow into their own potential.

Can you name an idea or an issue on which you've changed your mind?

Scottish Independence, I owe that to my colleague at the SU blog, John Wight. Actually, John has made me change my mind over a few things over the years, but that is the most significant issue.

What set of ideas do you think it most important to disseminate?

That human beings are social animals who are happiest during reciprocal interaction, and building bonds of solidarity.

What set of ideas do you think it most important to combat?

The liberal assumptions that human beings are best seen as isolated individuals asserting their rights against the collective, and that selfish rationality informs peoples economic choices.

I also despair of the brittle and intolerant “secularism” that masks intolerance.

Who are your political heroes?

Those who seek to resolve conflicts, and promote reconciliation. I greatly admire the way that politicians and former paramilitaries on both sides of the conflict in Northern Ireland have engaged in the peace process, and I greatly admire Mo Mowlem for her role in enabling that process.

I also admire those who, when conflict is inevitable, hold fast to the principles of democracy, rule of law and constitutionality. I am deeply impressed by both Abraham Lincoln and Dr Martin Luther King

How about political villains?

I will never forgive those who recklessly took us to war against Iraq.

What do you think is the most pressing political task of the day?

Winning a Labour election victory on 7th May.

If you could affect a major policy change, what would it be?

I would like to see a paradigm shift in the landscape of employment law, moving away from the assertion of individual rights, and towards a collective framework, where employers have a legal duty to resolve disputed issues with trade unions.

What do you consider to be the main threat to the future peace and security of the world?

Ask me after the election.

What would be your most important piece of advice about life?

Stay cheerful.

What is your favourite song?

Cannot pick just one:

Sunny Sweeney - Everyone Else can kiss my Ass
George Jones and Tammy Wynette singing - My Elusive Dreams
Conway Twitty - I Love you more today

Do you have a favourite video game?

No.

What do you consider the most important personal quality in others?

Moral courage

What personal fault in others do you most dislike?

Selfishness

What, if anything, do you worry about?

Nothing I want to share!

And any pet peeves?

I am irrationally and disproprtionately annoyed by The Guardian, which I find an unreadable newspaper.

What piece of advice would you give to your much younger self?

Never read The Guardian.

What do you like doing in your spare time?

Watching reruns of old police procedurals on ITV3.

What is your most treasured possession?

My absurdly indulgent Aquascutum cashmere overcoat.

Do you have any guilty pleasures?

My Aquascutum cashmere overcoat.

What talent would you most like to have?

Blowing smoke rings.

If you could have one (more or less realistic) wish come true - apart from getting loads of money - what would you wish for?

Labour to win the General Election with an overall majorty.

Speaking of cash, how, if at all, would you change your life were you suddenly to win or inherit an enormously large sum of money?

Bigger house

If you could have any three guests, past or present, to dinner who would they be?

I wouldn’t invite people to dinner. I would be happier to meet people down the pub, and I would rather go with my own friends and family.

Being a PPC is tiring, time consuming and can cost quite a bit. Would you recommend it?

I never make personal recommendations about what choices other people should make, However, don’t do it unless you know what you are getting into.

And lastly ... Why are you Labour?

Politics is about the art of seeking political change within the specific contexts that are actually available to you. There is no doubt in my mind that a Labour government is not only the best plausible option, but would also be a very big step forwards for working people, and all those interested in social justice. The millions of people who vote for, or identify with the Labour Party, and the millions of people in affiliated trade unions are the most significant assets for progressive politics in Britain, and the battle within the Labour Party is to connect again with the aspirations of the 5 million voters we have lost since 1997.

UK Marches Against South Korean Puppet Regime!

Britain-based friends and comrades of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea held a mass action outside the London embassy of the fascist, puppet regime of the so-called Republic of Korea last month. Here you can see them in action.



That looks like One Brewer's Green in the background. I wonder what Labour Party staff thought when they stumbled upon this living expression of workers' movement solidarity with People's Korea?

According to the press release reporting on the event, there were attendees from the "New Communist Party of Britain, the British Association for the Study of Songun Policy, the British Group for the Study of the Juche Idea, the Korean Friendship Association UK and the Korean Friendship Association headquartered in Spain and citizens." Looking at the turnout, there were probably more organisations present than protesters - though I was pleased to see revolutionary inflation alive and well when the lead spokesman indicated there were "13, 14, 15 present".

On Weaponising Ed Miliband

Let's take a moment to reflect. Shed your political preferences and ideological preconceptions and scan an unjaundiced eye over the respective election campaigns for the parties Conservative and Labour. Who does the polling momentum at moment appear to be with? Where are the approval figures going? What party has announced a raft of constructive policies? Who's winning the ground war? Who's employing social media most effectively? Who is having more success cutting through? And looking at the scaremongering both sides necessarily indulge, of the two which campaign appears the most tendentious, desperate, and abusive?

I ask these questions because I'm convinced it's not my many biases telling me that my party is having a good campaign, and the Tories are, well, having a less than stellar time. Be it leaders' non-debates, pledges to cut social security even further, or going all sixes and sevens over Labour's NonDoms announcement, they're looking every inch like the less of the sum of their parts. Despite all that hedge fund cash and dodgy donations laundered through their private members' clubs, it just goes to show you can't put a lipstick on a turd.

Take this morning's knockabout, for example. Michael Fallon, the former defence secretary and today's Dave stand-in attacked Ed Miliband for "stabbing his brother in the back" and worse is "willing to stab the country in the back". Hmmm. Fallon should be careful. Associating "backstabbing" with politicians of a Jewish background doesn't have a great historical track record. Anyway, the Tories attack line is that because the SNP are unilateralists, Labour are only too happy to ditch Trident replacement in exchange for the keys to Number 10. Not that I'm interested in defending Trident, nevertheless both parties have long indicated that it's a red line in coalition negotiations, it would not be a barrier to deals that fall short of this. The politics hacks know this. The Scottish public certainly know this. And anyone paying attention to politics knows this. The Tories then have launched a deliberately cynical attack they know not to be true in the hope Ed will look like an unprincipled chancer. And if it hoodwinks the tiny number for whom retention of nuclear weapons is a deal maker, so much the better.

It was a clumsy attack. It was a desperate attack. One man, however, disagrees. Dan Hodges discerns a clever plan behind Fallon's remarks. They're looking to weaponise Ed Miliband, to turn the election into a question of his character, to focus on the choice between him and a vaporous Dave. Focus groups and years of grim approval ratings tell them this has to work. Because, let's face it, when your coming manifesto promises little more than demented and unnecessary cuts, a possible EU exit, and precious little else the Tories have already lost the politics. After all, negative politics won in Scotland, so why not here too? Why not now? So this, for Dan - and the anonymous briefers always seeking his ear - is about making Ed Miliband appear a credible figure, as someone who could be PM. And what the Tories are banking their entire strategy on is voters will look at that and balk.

Because key Tories believe this to be true, it has to be true. There are two problems with this. First, people don't like negative campaigning. Most don't even like watching politicians argue. The Conservative strategy can be as clever clever as Dan thinks, what matters for the great many people who don't follow politics closely but will be voting next month is that Labour are being seen to stand up for the NHS, a higher minimum wage, tax cuts for small business, and tax crackdowns on the super rich; and the Tories are slamming Ed for looking silly. Talk about not seeing the electorate for Westminster point scoring. To think the Tories have forked out good money for this incisive strategy.

The second point is things change. What was commonsense yesterday becomes an absurd anachronism today. Contrary to received hack wisdom, Dan's included, it does appear that the more the general public see of Ed, the more they like him. It's only one poll, but for the first time ever Survation have shown his approval rating overtake Dave's. If the Tories want to throw more mud at the Labour leader, that just gives him the opportunity to look like a man of integrity and a man of ideas, things that will shift the election more in our direction. The Tories are dumb enough and stupid enough to do so. The Tories still have advantages on economic competency ratings and Dave looking 'more prime ministerial (good job, as that's his sole talent), but these too can change.

With an election moving in Labour's direction, with them doing very well in the marginals, with a leader who's becoming an asset the Tories cannot but cling to the dogmatic certainties cultivated over five, long years. Handing prominent Conservatives advice to make personal attacks on Ed Miliband isn't a sign of anything clever. It underlines their political bankruptcy and eviction of anything resembling strategic sense. So yes, by all means, please continue.

Green Party Candidates UK General Election 2015

If you thought the far left candidate list was big, wait until you see this. As far as I know, below in the most complete list of Green Party candidates for the forthcoming general election you will find anywhere. It is provisional, subject to last minute selections and withdrawals and will be revised when new information becomes available. Also, I have lumped in the Green Parties of Scotland and Northern Ireland. Yes, they're separate (albeit fraternal) entities but they'll do as one for my purposes.

I shall return soon to say a few words about the Greens' campaign, but whichever way it's sliced and diced this is an impressive achievement. Even with the tens of thousands of new members this is no mean feat. I make it 564 PPCs, which is truly a gargantuan number of candidates for a party that until very recently was a small outfit that did everything on a shoestring.

In case you haven't seen the far left list, the format here lists constituencies contested in alphabetical order with their candidate. If * appears after their name, it means that individual faught the 2010 general election for the Greens too. If there is a date in brackets it shows the result from the last election in that seat. If there is nothing then the Greens did not stand there in 2010 or in more recent parliamentary by-elections.
