This page is meant to represent MrNoNonsense's political views. Please do not make any major edits without their permission.


The Great British New Left is a Socialist and Progressive political belief held by MrNoNonsense advocating for more Left Centre-left consolidation within the British Labour Party. He supports the parties more moderate leanings, while personally preferring the parties more leftist tendencies. despite this, he is an ardent critic of the administrations of Tony Blair and Gordon Brown, giving slightly more credit to the latter. He is an aggressive opponent of Keir Starmer, considering him to be a Political Opportunist. He is also a vocal supporter of the NHS strikes and an open critic of Transphobic sentiments, seeing them as a bi-product of a Manufactured Culture War . He proposes a Reconciled Left-Wing Coalition within the Labour Party, with the intention of ensuring victory against the much more uniform Conservative establishment. He is also an advocate for an electoral coalition with the Breakthrough Party, the Green Party, and other smaller democratic socialists party such as Tower Hamlet's Aspire Party. Of course, this plan is primarily aimed towards britain, but it is applicable to other areas because of how compromising it is designed to be. Being from Manchester, he is also a strong supporter of Andy Burnham.

The little ideology sprite things: (/////)

Beliefs

Economic Policy

I believe that the economy, locally and nationally, must prioritise those who control the means of production. Britain must begin the process of renationalising industries, especially in cases such as Royal Mail, where privatisation has led to nothing but mass strikes and detrimental working conditions. To this extent, I largely support Corbyn's approach to the economy; utilise idealism to give the workers their fair share, but utilise pragmatism to regulate the economy while these actions are being taken. for this reason, I refer to my economics as Social Regulationist pragmatically, and Regulationary Socialist Ideally.

Unions

Radicalised by the worker's strikes that plague Britain's politics today, I have no further opinion than that unions are the core of our society, and that they are in a functioning democracy, an absolute necessity for a cooperative society. Unions are, in a Tory country, the last line of defence for the common worker. I am no Syndicalist, I feel there is better governance to be had from the party, but I can say with firm belief that I stand with the unions, through all of their ventures. In conclusion, i refer to myself as a Trade Unionist, and sympathise with Syndicalists.

My Definition Of Socialism

Socialism is inherently a very broad ideology, but in the context of my ideology, i see it as the inevitable Idealist future, once elections are won and the benefits are made clear to the people, socialism can be achieved. I also believe in Left-Collaborationism as a core tenant of my believes, to the testament that hopefully, long after I am gone, a true utopic Communist society can be achieved. Although I personally would never refer to myself as a Communist, I still see a Communist future as inevitable, defining it as a stateless, classless, moneyless society. Marx got many a thing right in regards to the exploitative relationship between the upper and lower classes, but he also had some Choice words about jewish people as part of his clear hatred of religion, the kind of things that could not be justified as merely State Athiest. While i personally refer to myself as a Catholic, and define my opinions on class and the working class as stemming from the teachings of Jesus Christ, I still recognise the importance of the seperation of Church from Politics. For these reasons, I refuse to define my beliefs as 'Marxist', as I believe that we should not define ourselves through the theories of other people, and should instead strive to identify ourselves by our own theories. So to conclude this section, I define myself as highly sympathetic of Marxists, while abstaining from referring to myself as such, and moderately sympathetic to Communists, only not to the extent of being an apologists for the crimes committed by such groups. I define myself not as a Democratic Socialist, but as a Socialist, since i believe that true socialism directly implies democracy.

Conclusion

In Conclusion, I describe my economic values as Regulationarily Socialist, Trade Unionist, and Moderately Socialist (although i refer to my economics as Moderately Socialist, i refer to my ideology as a whole as Socialist, as opposed to Democratic Socialism, as i believe true socialism implies democracy.)

Best/Worst Parts Of My Ideology?

How I Would Have Voted In Labour Party Leadership Elections

  • 1976: Tony Benn (Withdrew In Final Ballot)
  • 1980: Micheal Foot
  • 1983: Eric Heffer (Reluctantly)
  • 1988: Tony Benn
  • 1992: John Smith (Reluctantly)
  • 1994: John Prescott (Very Reluctantly)
  • 2007: John McDonnell (Not enough votes to oppose Brown)
  • 2010: Andy Burnham (I had to think about this, because on one hand i dont mind Ed Milliband, and on the other, Diane Abbott was the Socialist Campaign Group's candidate. but with hindsight, i decided i had to vote for the man who has done the most locally to earn my respect.)
  • 2015: Jeremy Corbyn (Sorry, Andy)
  • 2016: Jeremy Corbyn ( Owen Didn't sell it for me)
  • 2020: Rebecca Long-Bailey
