Captain SKA - Slipping Back In Time

Captain SKA's 3rd release is a lament to the current government's return to the Thatcherite policies that so devastated this country in the 1980's, and a call to take urgent action to stop the damage and violence to the UK's public services.

There will be huge protests around the country  on the 30th of June against these ideological and unnecessary cuts to education, that will affect EVERYONE. The biggest one in London, 11:30 LINCOLNS INN FIELDS TO PARLIAMENT SQ. Spread the word.

Don`t vote, at the next general elections, bi elections, in every capitalist industrialized nation tied to the international banking system, do not vote, just do not vote, then see what happens.

Bit of a one sided view isn't it.

@Intravenusdimilo I'm sure I do not need to elaborate on what happens when the consumer (public) tightens its belt at the same time as the government introduces cuts/austerity measures? Its the dreaded "no stimulus" syndrome. The public cut their spending, the government cuts spending = Weakening of economy and/or post recession economic growth.

[LCStreetPhotographer]

@Intravenusdimilo The Tories initiated these austerity measures on whose advice? The banks, marketeers and corporations that precipitated the Global Recession in the first place. I hate to say it but, immediately post crisis labours handling of the economy saw us emerge from the reccession stronger per gdp than the USA, Japan, Germany, France and Italy, to name a handful. Austerity measures introduced too soon and too deep by Con-Dem have now stifled that growth.

[LCStreetPhotographer]

@Intravenusdimilo Thatcher completely deregulated the banks, her subsequent successor John Major failed to put them back in the sober cage of regulation and Labour then failed to do so. Conservative policies allow unbridled and unregulated capitalism (banks, corporations etc) to set the pace, and it was these that precipitated (caused) the Global Economic Crisis we recently suffered. And now, in the wake of this Crisis the Tories introduce austerity measures.

@Intravenusdimilo The Tories tend to leave things a little better? Sorry, but I am a "former" Conservative voter, I then attended University as a mature student aged 25 (at the time) studying BA (Hons) Politics, and my entire opinion of the Cons changed. Believe me, Con by name and very much con by nature. Its called "figure fudging" and just because its good for the top 5-10% of the primary holders of wealth in the UK does not make things "a little better" for the majority.

@Intravenusdimilo The miners were striking to save their jobs. They were striking in an attempt to keep the mines open and prevent the far right Thatcher government from closing them causing widespread unemployment and devastation to communities for decades to follow. To blame the unions and Scargill for what the government did to those communities is ludicrous and quite frankly a little dim!

This IS big, funny and clever.

Love it. Totally love it.

Good piece of work Captain Ska. I thought nothing could ever be as bad as Thatcher but this coalition are using the economic crisis to inflict ideological cuts that will have far worse consequences than anything in the Thatcher era and much as I dislike Cameron & Osborne its Clegg I despise. A bare faced lying snake oil salesman who sold out a generation with his volte - face on tuition fees.
