The Tories are bankrupting government ? and society will fall with it ...

As the Observer notes this morning:

The economic crisis engulfing the coalition deepened after the Tory head of?local government?raised the spectre of councils across England and Wales running out of cash reserves used to boost local economies within five years, under the weight of massive spending cuts.

This is not chance: this is?deliberate. As I argued in The?Courageous State, the Tories seek power to destroy the value?government?provides. That is what they are doing here.?Even?their own members in local?government?now realise that what the Tories at Westminster are doing will destroy local authorities in the UK, leaving those?authorities?to go bankrupt. That will in turn ?undermine?education, social services, transport,?environmental?provision?and much lese in local?communities?throughout?the UK.

All of this is foreseeable. In that case it is deliberate. The intent is to destroy democratic?government?itself of which local?authorities?form a key part.

When will people realise just how dangerous this is to the very?fabric?of our society, which will be torn apart by such policies?

And when will they also realise that without functioning and?effective?government?the chance of ever creating wealth in?this?country will be undermined for?generations?to come?

Politics has not been this raw in our?country?for?generations: we are quite?literally?facing?the?destruction of the whole fabric on which?our?society?is based. And that means we all have a choice to accept this destruction of our democracy or fight it. Sitting on the fence is not an option: that?s acceptance.

I?m fighting.
