Why Boris Won, Why Comissar Corbyn Lost

It was about Brexit.

And Brexit was about immigration.

And immigration, to quote Steve Bannon:

... is to flood the zone with cheap labour, and the reason is because the elites don’t give a fuck about African Americans and the Hispanic working class. They don’t care about the white working class either. You’re just a commodity. So they have unlimited labour and they’re paying you nine bucks an hour. ‘Let more guys in and, by the way, it’s bigger markets.’ It destroys the working class. That’s what we’ve got to protect. Once we show working-class people of every ethnicity and race that you being a citizen you get a special deal, you get that realignment."

But why didn't Labour, understand that?

Because the Labour Party, or left, in Britain, like America's Democrats, comprises two groups. There's what the Brits call the working class, what in America is the blue-collar class, and what the Commies call the proletariat. These are the people with the least education, the roughest jobs and the lowest wages.

Then there's the revolutionary thinkers, the intellectuals and the organizers of the revolution, which is to say the Labour Party's Corbynite faction, widely backed by public sector workers, the bureaucrats, teachers, nurses, doctors, university professors, all folks with powerful unions, good salaries, job security, index-linked pensions. These are the "educated" folks with a Clintonite contempt for the deplorables, which is to say the common people who oppose the destruction of their communities by an mass influx of immigrants of alien race, religion and culture.

The Labour Party under Corbyn thus represents not what is understood by the term workers, but mainly a privileged caste of what in the Soviet Union were known as the Nomenclatura. These are a people who benefit from cheap immigrant labor and the off-shoring of jobs, because it slows the rise in the cost of living.

It is also the class that, in the Soviet Union, led to an economic implosion and which, wherever such a class exists, strives mightily to increase its own importance and power by burdening the common people with ever increasing taxes to fund ever more badly managed public interventions in every sphere of life.

Folks in Britain's declining industrial cities realizing what Corbyn and his followers were about, voted accordingly.
