I have been warning about the return of the Loony Left for some time. Fortunately you are down under (you don't still get a vote here, do you?)
Prunella Minge	The 'Big Society' idea is a banal one historically - it's basically what the vast majority of political theories advocated from classical times onwards. So I don't really 'get' the knee-jerk cynicism of the media's political 'experts,' nor their absurd claim that it's 'too difficult' for the public to grasp. It could hardly be easier. The problem is that history also shows that not enough people take civic virtue seriously enough. Classical democracy did, but that was founded on a slave system - being a citizen was a privilege. Modern democracy, on the other hand, values the right to be left alone, to opt out, more highly than the right to take part. So the project is compromised. But it isn't 'complicated'. The reporting is very silly.

In The Know	A great speech centering on the coalition's magnificent achievement in unravelling (in less than six months) the control-state that Labour had spent thirteen years building up. Particularly liked the way he ridiculed Labour's "we cannot have winners" claim by a Load of Balls. At the end of the term this coalition will have done more good than the combined efforts of every Labour government in the last 100 years. Labour are not only dead - they are buried. True ... there will be a few diehards who cling-on, but as they realise that they are an ever diminishing minority they will evaporate, just like all their loony policies.
