INTRODUCTION
Better to break the law than break the poor".
This documentary explores the struggle of the Liverpool 47 in 1983 -87 against the Thatcher government..
Liverpool Labour councillors, who were socialists, in a struggle to save jobs and services, build houses, schools and sports centres for the people of Liverpool.

Even Lord "EU Gravy Train" Kinnock, who deprived the British working class of a political voice when he hired Lord "EU Gravy Train" Mandelson and began New Labour?

@p4eugeot who am i to comment on the 1970s? yeah somebody who was pushed round in his pram during the time, but STILL sick of hearing about it 35 years later from the moaning bastards who are still no better off now than then. and why is that? because your obviously a scouser, so that means all you do is moan, cry, nick the wheels from our cars (the ones who have wheels worth nicking) and love living in your own self pity, when your not out striking of course

[75cammo]

@75cammo I hear moaning childbrained cunts like you everyday ,moaning about their lot hoping some one will have the balls to stand up and say something,as long as it isn't you,you hide untill the fuss is over and come out under the pretence you where there as well,You would have everybody on £3-50 an hour if it was left to you,remember this you hideous prick anything working people have which is very little has been fought for not given,but you wouldn't understand that would you fuckin Quilp

[p4eugeot]

@75cammo I would bet you would have been one of those heedless cunts who bought shares in British Gas etc and sold them a couple of weeks later and made £3-50 and thought you had done well,you fuckin idiot,short sighted prick.Money being transfared from the public sector to the private sector for one reason only to give money to greedy shareholders whos only interest is life is to increase their bank balance on the backs of working people but you just can't see it can you, you fuckin inane shit

[p4eugeot]

@75cammo There would still be children up chimneys if it was left to you,because you are happy with the status quo from you master,whos regard for his workforce is nill,but you would sit ther eating your stale bread while others done the fighting on your behalf and the future of you children,you take no part in society because "I'm alright" its cunts like you who would watch the NHS be privatised and think it was a good idea and realise later on just how bad an idea it was you are stupid

[p4eugeot]

@75cammo To think some time along the line there's s faint possiblity that you may breed,and spread a futher cancer through the population with your ignorant views,of a three year old fills me with dread,I have witnessed many times in my like cunts like you.selfish,self serving,unmindful,cunts who do nothing to try and gain a bit of a better life from the cunts who keep us down, and use us,as a tool to make these twats rich,you would do anything to perpetuate it you grovelling,crawling bastard,

[p4eugeot]

@75cammo According to your idea then ,all the countries whos people are protesting( I won't go into detail or name them because it would mean nothing to you) All these people are wrong are they simply because the want to change things for better,Whereas lowdown, uneducated, untaught,unaccomplished,dregs of foul smelling shite like you would just sit there and let you family starve,you weak kneed sissified,poltroon,prick.you should hang your empty head in shame you useless, futile,junky,twat
