Of course, you are correct. No problem with what you are saying.
All too often, liberals are left to implement the final stages of
austerity.

The 70s were interpreted as a failure of the "left," opening the way for a
move to the right as a solution. The failure of this decade will be seen

Once again, I have to remark on how weird it is that a bunch of
friends of the working class are getting all excited about the
