The UK right wing are working to an agenda

Here is the agenda in outline.

1. Take over the Tory Party
2. Leave the EU
3. Win a majority
4. Implement an undiluted neoliberal agenda of deregulation, tax cuts, (social) spending cuts.

The goal being a massive transfer of wealth from the working people of the UK, into the offshore accounts of the wealthy.

Step 1 is accomplished.

Step 2 is essential since, despite essentially being a neoliberal establishment, the EU protects workers and human rights and is thus not neoliberal enough. This step will be accomplished in 31 Oct.

The fact that leaving the EU with no deal is likely to cause a recession only works in their favour. They will be "forced" to reduce spending in response to a shrinking economy and a deficit blowout.

Step 3 is where we might stop them. At present they can't win an outright majority. But they've now got a populist figurehead who is in full electioneering mode, though he has yet to call an election so no one else is campaigning.

If they get to step 4, they'll gut the UK, sell off the organs to the highest bidder, and pocket the profits.

We need to stop focussing on Boris the clown and see the bigger picture. If anything he is the distraction from the real action. The far right of the Tory Party are now in the driver's seat.

We also need to see the current (uncosted) spending plans as classic election bribes for disaffected swing voters. They need to win an election in order to force through the far-right agenda. This is priority no.1 now.

To date the socialists and social-liberals have no answer to the populist politics of the far right.

If that is not bad enough, most of these far right politicians are either climate change deniers, or they just don't give a fuck and won't act to meet targets. They'll make a profit either way - like Goldman Sachs' big windfall during the global financial crisis.
