You might find the answer in ‘A Very British Ending‘ by Edward Wilson (Arcadia Books, 2015). The extent to which you’ll find the book convincing will depend on your age, memory and whether you buy conspiracy theories or not. It’s about a left-wing labour prime-minister targetted by UK and US establishment interests and our secret service – seems pretty convincing to me!
To be sure Jeremy will be blitzed by most of the British media and smeared from here to Moscow, I mean just look at that hat for God’s sake! Obviously a commie enemy of freedom and the ‘American way!’
Interested parties will foment splits within the labour party too – that’s only to be expected. But I wonder how dirty it’s going to get. I’m not sure what a Democrat-led US government will do about it let alone Donald Trump (pardon me) and the looney right. After all there is a lot at stake; if we’re not careful we’ll find ourselves living in a country where ordinary people influence government and have a say in policy – that’s dangerously like some kind of, some kind of…what’s the word…… democracy. I’m not totally sure either that ‘Diddy David’ (Cammo to his friends), is as happy as he claims about the Labour Party committing suicide by electing a mad scientist……. sorry mad socialist leader who will destroy the economy, enslave hard-working families and sell us to Putin. If he practices looking like everyone’s favourite uncle (see below) it might be the beginning of the party not the end of the Party!
