The Telegraph now appears to act for Labour and condemn England

I'm appalled by the efforts of the Telegraph to support Gordon Brown.

They are now trying to crush the renaissance of English identity with a Brown saving campaign for Britishness - see this from the Press Association:

Iain Martin, group executive editor of Telegraph Media Group, said: "The Telegraph launches a patriotic campaign - Call Yourself British - with a very simple aim: to celebrate Britishness and stimulate projects which will weaken those who want to tear this great partnership asunder.

This fails to acknowledge that the problem is that national identities are promoted by the government for every nation in the UK except the English.

I'm amazed that the Telegraph group is going the "British regions" campaign of Gordon Brown designed to balkanise and humiliate England.

In addition they have appointed a left wing journalist to their political team and we now regularly get New Labour propaganda published in the comments section.

I leave your imagination to try to explain what is going on ....

"We used to think that you could spend your way out of a recession and increase employment by cutting taxes and boosting government spending. I tell you in all candour that that option no longer exists." James Callaghan

“The trouble with theoretical economists is that they don't understand that when you have a deficit, you can only finance it by borrowing, and you've got to persuade people that it's worth lending money to you and that they'll get their money back... there's no way of escaping it.” Dennis Healey during the 1976 Stirling Crisis.

"Lenin is said to have declared that the best way to destroy the Capitalist System was to debauch the currency. By a continuing process of inflation, governments can confiscate, secretly and unobserved, an important part of the wealth of their citizens ... Lenin was certainly right. There is no subtler, no surer means of over-turning the existing basis of society than to debauch the currency. The process engages all the hidden forces of economic law on the side of destruction, and does it in a manner which not one man in a million is able to diagnose." John Maynard Keynes, 1920.

"To preserve [the people's] independence, we must not let our rulers load us with perpetual debt. We must make our selection between economy and liberty, or profusion and servitude." Thomas Jefferson, President of the United States of America,1801-1809.
