It is worth recalling that #tradeunions and #socialistsocieties set up the #labourparty so as to exercise countervailing power within the political system. There was a real risk during the #blair years that it would be captured by those very corporate lobbies and their useful idiots - set out at the time by #colincrouch who described it as 'post democracy'. I had thought that danger had gone but that may be premature in the light of stories about #morganmcsweeny and #waheedalli !
