As the first two of Polly Toynbee`s three column
article consisted of listing the damage Tories` "relentless small-state
austerity" inflicted on the country`s communities, thereby "tilling the ground"
for the Brexit vote, it was rather disingenuous to lead with such a
dramatic heading (Dismal, lifeless, spineless - Corbyn let us down
again,25/06/16). Of course, the Labour leader should have been more forceful in
countering the Brexiteers` nonsense, but there can be no doubt where the real
blame lies.
The arrogance of Cameron and Osborne has been
apparent in their policies since 2010, treating ordinary people as mugs, and it
led them in 2016 to think that they could continue their assault on the revenues
of Labour councils and the rights of trade unions, even when it was clear
non-Tory voters` support would be needed to defeat Brexit. Why should voters in
the north-east, for example, have supported Tories` remain claims when they
know, first hand, that the "northern powerhouse" policy is a figment of
Osborne`s imagination?
History teachers (like me!) should share some
responsibility; the British are a mixed-race, Britain did not win the world wars
on her own, she was not alone in 1940, there is no "special relationship" with
the USA, and so on. Just as workers can only improve their conditions by
collaboration, Britain`s success in the past, and hopes for the future, lay in
partnership. What have we done?
