Left-wing is all about more Government control - take it to it's limit and you have Communism which is total Government control over everything. Not totally true ^^^ (imagine you posting porkies tut tut), but just as bad as allowing the wealth of the very rich to influence Conservative politics and help maintain the overrated Tories in office. Yes it is - name one left-wing Government that has reduced the amount of Government control. |

You are correct, Neo Liberalism is right-wing. The liberalism referred to is the freeing up of the markets and of finance allowing the wealthy to indulge in a money grab. and left-wing
Champagne socialist is a political term commonly used in the United Kingdom. It is a popular epithet that implies a degree of hypocrisy, and it is closely related to the concept of the liberal elite. The phrase is used to describe self-identified anarchists, communists, socialists and liberals whose luxurious upper class or "preppy" lifestyles, metonymically including consumption of champagne, are ostensibly in conflict with their political beliefs.
Oh no it is all right wing overseen by the far right, obviously. |

Ten chins Starmer .. Keir Starmer played key role in blocking Tony Blair's plan to block asylum seekers' right to claim benefits 20 years ago Keir Starmer played role in overturning attempt to strip asylum seekers' benefits The attempt was made by ex Prime Minister Tony Blair 20 years ago Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer played a key role in overturning an attempt by Tony Blair 20 years ago to strip asylum seekers of the right to claim benefits. The action – which can be revealed just days after Rishi Sunak announced plans to extinguish the right of small-boats migrants to claim asylum – was taken by Sir Keir after Labour introduced the Nationality, Immigration and Asylum Act in 2002. www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-11849361/Keir-Starmer-played-role-blocking-Tony-Blairs-plan-block- |

Do you think that Sheepy understands the meaning of the word neo-liberalism? He is of the opinion that it refers to the Left, and covers things such as the so-called Woke agenda. If you think he understands the meaning of neo-liberalism, can you provide a link to support his position? |

If you think he understands the meaning of neo-liberalism, can you provide a link to support his position? Liberalism is a political philosophy from the 19th Century. It re-emerged with Thatcher in the 20th Century. This was called neo-liberalism. It's understandable that someone might make the error of linking neo-liberalism with 'woke'; after all, the 'woke' were known as bleeding heart liberals until recently. But you've been making that mistake for a long time. You'd think the penny would have dropped by now. Your posts aren't easy to read at the best of times; abandon all hope of ever being understood if you're going to start misusing political terms as well. |

I've already provided a definition from an online dictionary. Here it is again: a political approach that favours free-market capitalism, deregulation, and reduction in government spending (from Oxford Languages online dictionary). The internet is full of information about neo-liberalism. |

You won't have any problem providing a link to an expert who shares your definition of neo-liberalism, then. Go ahead, provide a link. |

Okay, I can see where this is going, Sheepy. You've been mistakenly describing 'the Woke' as neo-liberals for a long time and you don't want to admit your mistake. That's fine. |

That's fine. Not much of a definition of an expert.How can one provide an expert unless one has a definition of one, its a bit like describing a woman when you don't have a definition of one. |

Have it your own way, Sheepy. Your posts are already a garbled mess. If you want to make them even worse, continue to misuse basic political terminology. |
