Why we must dump Labour

Over on LabourList is a deeply scary and worrying post that seems to show all that is wrong with the Labour mindset. This government has seriously eroded our civil liberties and has demonstrated that it will continue to do so in order to stay in power.

The post effective says that in order to keep Labour policy in the event of a Conservative victory at the next election, Labour should legally entrench these policies in order that the Conservatives would think twice about repealing them.

Its the fact that a Labour supporter would even think about such a thing worries me. It smacks of authoritarianism on a grand scale. The point about elections is that they allow the voters to dump parties and policies they don't like.
