Marv asserts, "the working class masses ... identify the Democratic, Labour and other left-centre parties with the advent of the welfare state and the conservative parties with having resisted it and wanting it dismantled." Another fact-free assertion.
*Compare 2008:* "Election-night polling by Peter Hart for the AFL-CIO showed that 67 percent of union members voted for Obama while only 30 percent chose McCain." https://inthesetimes.com/article/obama-and-the-union-vote No wonder. The Democratic Party has done nothing big for the working class as a whole since the early 1970s. The DP has changed its game from working-class unity politics to identity politics, which divides workers rather than uniting them. -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Groups.io Links: You receive all messages sent to this group.
