I was reminded that whilst the Tories erred during Britain's Darkest Hour that Labour was at the forefront of promoting Winston Churchill to the forefront of British politics in order to save this country.
Halifax and Chamberlain plotted from the wings to negotiate with those that would bring this country down. Traitors to the core, Halifax remained one until the end.
How different politics is today. Neither of the two parties can be trusted with this countries future. The Tories are divided under an incompetent Prime Minister whist the spirit of Halifax has resurrected itself in Jeremy Corbyn who would likewise appease only the enemies of democracy.
Politics is in crisis and our political system is broken. Whether we stay in Europe or not the issue will not go away. Neither will the divisions within the two parties that dominate our political system.
There is a need for an alternative to the current gaggle of Victorian dandy's and Stalinist hacks at the heart of this crisis. There is a need for a new party. The Liberals have not proved themselves worthy but perhaps if we can get our act together now matter how well or how badly we do in the European elections that a new organisation can slowly be built from the ground upwards to overthrow the worn out establishment.
Change UK may not yet be that party, it may never be that party but it can be the beginning of that new way forward in politics. Support us, Join us vote for us. In time there can be new hope but patience is required to ride the coming storm of political collapse.
