This is it. Its crazy to think that people should just accept mass migration and if you dont it makes you a racist.

The greatest con that the capitalist corporations ever pulled was to trick the do gooding left into voting against their interests.

While simultaneously tricking non rich conservatives into voting against their interests.

Well Labour could have just avoided all that by just rejecting mass migration. And they refused, so they languished in opposition for 14 years while the Tories dismantled the country.

Yes, that's why I said they trick non rich conservatives into voting against their interests like with austerity and Brexit and trickle down tax breaks. And the propagandised right wingers fall for it every time.
