It’s quite astonishing to see the Conservative government shift from the right to the left. Of course, popularist governments have invested heavily in the state before, the National Socialists did this with their Public Works, Rearmourment and National Service.
Closet Brexiteer Corbyn’s interview today confirms that he is a a happy bunny now the government has invested billions into the Country.
From the BBC:
He said the government had been "shocked" by the national emergency, as their "instincts" were for "free market economics and the small state". Corbyn thinks
"They've now suddenly realised that they have to spend money to invest in the state, as we have always said as a party, and they have come around to a lot of that position."
'We need everybody'
Mr Corbyn said the government had also failed to realise how many people were in "insecure" employment in the UK when they drew up their response to the emergency.
But he believed that the pandemic had changed the political landscape forever.
"I think our society and our politics will never be the same again, because we have suddenly realised as a society and a community, we need everybody - and everybody has a contribution to make."
With the Schengen Area closed indefinitely and the possibility of quarantining or screening to enter other Countries, free movement of people in the EU might be fatally flawed. It seems Brexit might have landed on it’s feet and become a worthwhile idea way ahead of it’s time due to a viral fluke instead of the economy busting wretched nationalist little Englander project it was originally dreamed up as.
Walking along (one outdoor exercise per day), singing a song (The Red Flag), walking in a Corbyn wonderland.
