o/t do people really believe there is a right and left in politics, today?

[the_idiotb_stardson]

Reading a few of the threads on here, it appears so,

I honestly believe that separating politics into right and left is obsolete and I am beginning to think that this false opposition ended decades ago if indeed it existed at all.

Who for example thinks that Tories don't speak to Labour party members except in the house of commons?

I have a friend in fleet street who says in the past they seldom mixed but nowadays they are all lunching together and it has been the case for years.

It really is an illusion.

Eating with someone does not mean that you agree with them. If it did the wife would not be able to find fault.

Globalists versus nationalists is the real divide these days.

Not in the UK though as all the major parties are globalists.

And there's no-one on the right any more.

Tories are now New Labour Mk2, Lib Dems are left and Labour are far-left.

Even UKIP has moved to the centre ground recently.

It's not the parties who are running things anyway it's the Deep State; corporations, banks, civil servants, Common Purpose, NGOs, UN, EU, you saw them all come out for Remain in the referendum campaign, that was another good thing about that referendum, they revealed themselves.

I forgot the media, universities and Ex and current Presidents and PMs.

Think Douglas-Home was the 1st prime minister I can remember. Since then has there ever been a left, socialist or communist party been voted in. Kinnock was the closest. Never happen but telling you my best years were in the 70's at BSC when the taxes were high as well as the interest rates. Gone downhill ever since. Enoch was right.
