Working Class Party
It is early days yet and what we are most interested in is hearing from
you and what you think of what we outline below. Are we missing
something? We want you to tell us.

Who do we hope will support us?

We hope to get support from Labour supporters who have voted in vain
for the party supposed to represent the interests of the working classes .
Labour supporters may feel that their party has been hijacked by public
schoolboys with their a distinctly middle class view of socialism, based
on doctrine and words, rather than sharing out the money. They may feel
that the working classes no longer have a voice in politics and badly
need one. How else do the working classes have any hope that the
problems which confront them, such as
crime and education, will be
given the attention they need?
We hope to get support from conservative supporters who feel that
Conservative governments have indeed failed to conserve what was good
about Britain . We have seen a persistent erosion and destruction of some
of the essential values and norms of behaviour which once made this
country the most peaceful and decent in Europe. As well as failing to
preserve what was worth conserving, Conservative governments have
simply sold out to big business, regardless of the effects upon truly
conservative values .

Voters of both persuasions may feel that the obsession with so-called
modernisation of both parties is only another word for destruction of the
best aspects of the British way of life.

If you wonder how much longer the working
classes have to suffer crime and violence,
bad education and poverty, then read on...
This is a non-doctrinaire party of
neither left nor right; we are devoted to
returning commonsense and decency to
our society
What political voice
have the working
classes got? Who
speaks up for the
poor who live on
housing estates torn
apart by crime? Who
in parliament even
knows how bad the
schools are where
normal people have
to send their
children? What party
has as a priority to
end the rule of crime
and violence that
threatens to engulf
the poorest areas
We have a choice of
two parties, both of
them run by public
schoolboys, one
looks after the
interests of big
business, the other
looks after the
middle classes; one
cant see past the
doctrine of
capitalism, the other
serves the doctrine
of socialism, that
other middle class
doctrine. Both
parties have
contributed to the
ruination of this
country so that it is
only fit to live in if
you earn more than
£35,000 a year.
The country has
been sold out to two
doctrines. Now we
need a bit of
common sense. We
don't need political
correctness, we
don't need to be
used by marketing
and brainwashed by
advertising. And we
don't want a load
more rules made by
Europeans we
haven't elected,
telling us what to do
in our own country.
Britain belongs to
the well off, who can
buy themselves out
of the mess they
have made of it. We
want our lives back,
we want our country
back.
To single mothers on the housing estates sitting at home
mourning the fate of their children caught up in the drug and
weapon culture, we ask ; Do you believe it when our leaders
tell you there is no crisis amongst our youth, that the
problem comes from only a few bad apples?

To the old people afraid to even leave their flats, we ask; do
you believe our leaders when they tell you Britain is better
now than it ever was?

To the thousands whose lives are blighted by crime and
violence, we ask, do you believe that we have no need for a
sense of right and wrong, self restraint and decency?


We believe Britain needs a rebirth of the values which make
civilisation possible. The rich don't seem to think so. Perhaps
a society driven by greed and self-gratification suits their
aims. After all, its the way to fill your pockets.

But those of us who can't simply buy their way out of the
chaos, who cannot buy a safe and pleasant environment
away from crime and violence and the misery and
destructiveness of modern living in Poor Britain, we have no
choice but to try to make the best of what we have.

And that needs something more than what is on offer from
the ruling parties. To them there is no emergency in schools,
on the streets, on the estates. What do the weekly murders
of teenagers mean to them? It's not their children, its not
anyone they know.

What does it matter to them if it isn't even safe to go out
anymore? It's safe where the rich and powerful live. What
does it matter to the rich if everything is broken and
smashed up, because we can't even bring our children up
not to be mindlessly destructive? What does it matter to
them if the streets are strewn with litter just thrown there by
a generation who hasn't been taught to care a damn for
anyone else?
The rich of both political parties live where the worst of these
effects aren't felt; it isn't real to them. They see the world
through a car window, they see their own big houses and
simply turn away from the ugliness and misery around them;
they simply don't see it, and they don't feel the fear.

They don't see it because they can't afford to face up to the
truth that something is very wrong; that the experiment
hasn't worked; that bringing up nearly two generations to
sneer at Right and Wrong, to despise self-restraint and
consideration for others, to laugh at politeness to strangers,
has led to disaster, had led to a nasty, brutish society.
The ruling classes have undone all the values which we
need for civilisation to work, they have made it fashionable
to be violent, aggressive, loud, rude, offensive, hurtful,
boastful, pompous, and disrespectful. The result, is not just a
rude and unpleasant environment, the result is Murder on the
streets, the result is children getting killed for wearing the
wrong shoes, and being in the wrong group of friends, the
result is violence upon strangers for fun, kickings and
beatings for entertainment, maimings for nothing. The result
is fear and tyranny, at street level.. From above it may look
like fashionable subculture, or rebellious youth, it may suit
their fantasy of themselves as free individuals, but  from
below , in the real world, it looks like life being unlivable. For
the poor, life in Britain is sometimes a living Hell.

How long can we carry on in misery before we decide to

really
rebel; before we reject the fashions created for us by
American corporations trying to shift music and clothes, -  
and insist on the way of life WE need.

A society that wants to be civilised cannot reward only greed
and material success; We have to show that we value other
qualities, such as considerateness towards others, more
highly than selfishness.  

It doesn't have to be like this - but we have to make a choice.
We have to chose whether we believe in Right and Wrong or
not. We have to chose if we expect certain standards of
behaviour in society or not. We have to chose if young
people have to obey the rules or not. If the answers are yes,  
and we do want a peaceful and decent society, then we must
be prepared to make the very real and concrete changes
necessary to get one.

This is about the future. Todays youth are tomorrows adults.
Perhaps its time for youth to rebel against youth.

In this manifesto we hope to have made a start describing
the changes needed to restore decency to Britain.
The Working Class Party
This is about a vision of the future.
A future where Britain is a safe and
pleasant place to live, for everyone,
not just for the well off; where
violence, rudeness and aggression
are banished. Britain used to be a
civilised country, and can be once
again.
