THE IMPOTENCE OF BEING EARNEST? by Donal Kennedy

I have defended Jeremy Corbyn from the tsunami of character-assassination  waged against him by the Conmen and Neo-Conmen of the war-mongering Henry Jackson Society. And the lady and gentleman  auxiliaries of the Press, the Book and the Cloth.

I have never believed that Corbyn had the makings of a Cabinet Minister, much less a Prime Minister. In another age he might have been indulged as a Fool, permitted to speak Truth to Power without having his head chopped off at the Monarch’s command, or being pelted with rotten eggs by the Monarch’s more rotten sycophants.

It is plain, to all but the blind, the deaf, and the dumbest of creatures,  that the British Labour Party, could not organise a Cock-Up in  a Knock-Shop..It is dead from the toenails up. But not even the Monty Python scriptwriters could conjure up the grotesque scenario where a collection of dead birds could fill the airwaves by parroting competing nonsense.

The Tories are focussed on getting and retaining power and have never been squeamish in their methods.The law of averages suggests that I won’t witness them losing their grip, nor see another Labour Prime Minister in Downing Street.  

As a fellow-traveller with the Labour Party, though never a member, I was at a fund-raising  dinner in London, a few weeks ago. Our candidate, a sensible, middle-of the road guy, was re-elected.

When it came to speeches a guy got up and persuaded some sucker to pay hundreds of pounds for a copy of the Party Manifesto, which he praised more than if it was an original edition of the Gospels, autographed by Matthew, Mark, Luke and John, with a Foreword by the Holy Ghost. At the top of his voice he denounced at length the policies of the Tories, as if his audience needed to be convimced, and then listed the wondrous and wonderful goodies that would be showered on the poor and the wretched of Britain and the Earth within days of a Labour Victory. When it came to WORDS he was the undisputed Champion of the MANY, NOT THE FEW.

I had thought the guy was Earnest, but a Fool.

 But it has just occurred to me that he, and others like him, was an Imposter and one of a legion of Tory secret agents.
