The Republicans wanted to pull off the perfect crime.  ibid.  dude

In a recording obtained by American media, the outgoing US president can be heard claiming there was ‘no way’ he lost in the southern state.  Sky News online article 5 January 2021, ‘FBI asked to investigate after Donald Trump pleads for extra votes in Georgia’

 

 

Democratic elections alone do not remedy the crisis of confidence in government.  Moreover, there is no viable justification for a democratic system in which public participation is limited to voting.  Beth Simone Noveck

 

 

The difference between a democracy and a dictatorship is that in a democracy you vote first and take orders later; in a dictatorship you don’t have to waste your time voting.  Charles Bukowski

 

 

‘Why do people vote Tory, asked Piglet?’

 

‘Some are thick as pigshit, some are crooks, some are selfish bastards, and some are all three.  Others are racist xenophic wankers, some are entitled arseholes, others are inbred.  The rest are human excrement, said Pooh.  Tweet 24 February 2023

 

 

Never be deceived that the rich will allow you to vote away their wealth.  Lucy Parsons

 

 

Preoccupation with the working class vote is wrong.  They’ve got nowhere else to go.  Peter Mandelson, to Peter Hain 1999

To start with two-thirds of the public wanted us out; but by the end, the figures were exactly reversed.  So how did this remarkable transformation come about?  It’s a tragi-comic tale of high politics and low cunning that yoked together the oddest of bed-fellows.  ibid.  

 

The Tory MP Enoch was the leader of the right-wing anti-marketeers and he was a hate figure for the Left.  ibid.

The well-heeled Yes campaign had no such problems.  ibid.  

 

The various anti-market groups have a long history of mutual antipathy.  ibid.

 

After months of secret preparations, the Yes campaign emerges at The Dorchester to present its face to the public.  ibid.

 

Leading anti-marketeers included such figures as Enoch Powell, Tony Benn and Dr Ian Paisley.  ibid.
