"Welfare is what keeps the poor from eating the rich"

The Great British New Left is a theoretical Marxist and Kautskyist Movement advocated by MrNoNonsense involving the Technological overthrow of the British Government by Electoral and Revolutionary means. These beliefs are largely centred around the British Labour Party, which it sees as a sufficient host to supply the movement. Electorally, the movement aligns with the Hard Left of the Party, holding some Soft Left sympathies while showing no mercy to New Labour, which it sees as a miniature Conservative party. Culturally, the movement advocates for a complete Separation of the Church of England from the state, the Advancement of worker's condition through body augmentation, and the reform of sensationalized media. Socially, the movement advocates for a new social path, reconciling the Cultural left movement of the day to form a new, technologically oriented counter-culture movement, and economically, it takes a Market approach to Socialism, seeing the market not as a way to make capitalism 'friendlier', but as a way to enhance the condition of the working class in the new society until markets can be done away with.

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

Planning a major page revamp, so stay tuned. If you want to be added, don't be afraid to ask i'm focusing on doing that

Beliefs

Economic Policy

Taxation

The Movement strictly believes in what it likes to describe as a 'punitive' taxation model on higher income brackets. Taxing people in less comfortable living conditions has the adverse affect of creating more inequality, and raising less money than taxation of the 1%. To this end, The movement is committed to a tax on earnings above 10 Billion, raising the corporation tax to the sensible number of 35%, putting us in a respectable place within the G7, where our measly 25% has been the lowest in the group for a while. Additionally, the group supports the instituting of the following taxation policies: A Wealth Tax, taxing personal assets, a Land Value Tax, to be instituted in the original methodology of Henry George, a tax on Carbon emission, and a tax on private healthcare insurance, encouraging use of the National Health Service available. Speaking of...

Government Spending

The revenues from the wealth tax must immediately be spent on recruiting more nurses for the NHS. the service has been overwhelmed for a long period of time. Additionally, government ownership should preside over Royal Mail, British Telecom, and United Utilities, Providing relief on the energy crisis. The nation would also put forward a deal to purchase assets of BP, and use the energy infrastructure from such a purchase to begin the phasing out of oil and gas in favour of greener solutions.

Case Study: Alleviating The Cost Of Living Crisis

Starting hypothetically tomorrow, the movement would immediately remove the ban on onshore wind farms, institute a windfall tax to pay for new green energy infrastructure, and begin the nationalisation of the small gas companies that have been cooperating with Putin's russia. They would then start instituting further taxes on BP and Shell, and use the income generated from that to start a green new deal, providing a revitalisation of the energy industry, supported by the nationalisation of United Utilities, which should ease the burden on the people suffering the most from the crisis.

Social Policy

The Rights of an Individual

As per the Equality Act, under the GBNL, no individual should be discriminated for who they are as a person. While freedom of speech is vital to the community of the nation, it is not freedom of consequences. People should be held accountable for the things they say, as responding to criticism is itself protected speech. In a word, a man's right to swing his arm ends at another man's nose.

The Blue and The Black

Alternative Right and Alternative Lite discourse ignores basic biological factual information. It ignores the inherent fact that 'Nature', as it so seeks to appeal to, is a phenomenon. It is not fact. What is natural is simply what has changed, and what will likely change again. This 'State Of Nature' they pray to like a false deity is as nonexistent as their perceived supremacy. As File:ContraPointsism.png Someone else wisely put, 'When someone attacks someone specifically, they are not to be persuaded, they are to be defeated'.

The Pink, and it's relation to the Yellow

'Social Justice Warriorism' is a uniquely false notion. Truly, there is no unified movement that makes these people one group, merely innocent people who have been misled and polarised by an aggressive capitalistic media state. Capitalism created this movement to counter it's own creation, the aforementioned alternative lite. The fight between the two was created to serve capitalism, to sell a t-shirt, a bumper sticker, or a subscription service. Put simply, it "is not a collection of images, but a social relation among people, mediated by images.”

The Church

I am a Catholic. It is where I believe I receive my call to be a politician. It is where I believe I receive my Social teaching to love one another, and it is why I believe I am here in the first place. But the church has no place in society, not in a world where multiple faiths attempt to dictate the beliefs of others. There can be no true interpretation of God until we admit there is no true interpretation of God. He works with mystery, and we must accept that religious teachings should be completely separate from the governance of the state, chief among these conclusions being the separation of the church of England from the state of England.

Case Study: The Culture War

The Culture War is produced as a byproduct of Capitals insistence on this fight between two sides, both blinded to the truth of the matter. They are being puppeteered, funded by each other, by corporate opposition, with the unified goal of marketeering around the conflict. Capital doesn't get involved in this dispute, after all, "The role of capitalist ideology is not to make an explicit case for something in the way that propaganda does, but to conceal the fact that the operations of capital do not depend on any sort of subjectively assumed belief." Capital does not need to partake directly, but merely hint that they have taken a side to appeal to a certain audience, and profit massively. Truly, the brunt of the issue is, WE have been fooled by this narrative. It is US who are taking the blame for their misdeeds. Because a nation divided over whether or not a drag queen should be reading to children (Which by the way, who the fuck cares), is NOT divided over whether or not Capitalism has a right to exist at all.

Foreign Policy

Preface: The Nation

I would like to start this by stating what i believe to be a non-contradiction. I detest the nation. I detest the nation-state. In spite of this, i am a nationalist, and i actively support nationalists and nationalism. How, you may ask? Simple. The way the world has evolved, the way the situation in which we live has developed, the nation is nothing short of a complete and utter requirement. Otherwise would be, i believe, as far as the current system dictates, Currently impossible. Thoroughly. In fact, I believe the nation is such a requirement that I believe that to be a nationalist is the only viable option as of here and now. Ideally, a nation would not exist, but ideals are idealised, and the cold, bitter reality is that to survive in a world of wolves feasting on weak carcasses, to be proud of yourself is an option to which no alternative exists. The nation, despite it's socially constructed nature, is needed. In essence, to this part, I am simultaneously an Alternate Globalist and a Universal Nationalist. Make of this what you will, Being either puts you in my favour.

The People

Ethnicity, however, is not. What truly separates man from itself? It's shared culture and experiences? Or do you believe that the root cause of separation runs skin deep, that one pigment is 'better off' than another. Truly, the only thing that seperates man in observable science, is the labels we have attached to ourselves, to describe certain behavioural similarities in groups. Harmless, of course. But it has the potential to cause unspeakable harm, segregation, enslavement, inferiority in numbers, terrorism, genocide, and mass death in the name of one group over all the others. But for now, all this potential for misery remains locked away behind one powerful single word. 'British'. 'Frisian'. 'French'. Let us keep these words the same for now, and pray to above that they will never again activate to violent effect.

The Great Political Binary

West, East. Rich, Poor. First, Second and Third. Both corrupted by the very nature of the ideals that their ancestors tried to instill onto them. The Americans have taken the role of the British Empire, flipping places to their side on the very whim, revelling in pure unadulterated capitalism leaving nothing but waste and despair in their path. The Russians, the Chinese, have inherited the legacy of their founding autocracy, truly, the spirit of tsar and emperor never left the two countries. With such a large number of people and land respectively, Autocracy comes geographically natural to the two powers, leaving the world in a standoff between worse and worse yet, mediocre and deathly. What is right is sacrificed in the name of who is on our side, and who isn't. I want britain to play no further part in this charade.

Case Study: Ukraine

Imagine yourself being a Ukrainian refugee. Starving, Hopeless, alone. Forced to leave your home because of circumstances out of your control. Now imagine yourself being a citizen of Donetsk or Donbas. Similarly, you are in destitution by an incompetent puppet government paraded by Putin's autocratic regime. But you are not ukrainian, no. You speak russian, and you live a russian life. To you, to be Russian is not a question of being allied to Putin's regime, but simply being who you are. I refuse to support Putin's illegal invasion into Ukraine, but similarly, I refuse to allow for the oppression of the russian minority within Ukraine. Universal Nationalism is universal. If a group wants freedom, and can prove so, it must be granted. Of course, i wish for this to be under a different russian government, but Ukraine's hand in this issue has gone far enough. Ukraine has tried and failed multiculturalism. Should ukraine be punished for any action? No, they are being invaded. In conclusion, Russia's war in ukraine comes first, Russian people's right to whatever sovereignty they want will, and I mean will, come afterwards.

Civic Policy

The Government

The primary goal of a governmental system should be to serve the people. To do this, civic policy will have to change through time. I can't call myself particularly statist, or particularly libertarian, because I believe the need for either is situational. In a time of crisis, the situation may call for either the insurance of liberties through a unified state or through personal guarantees. Surveillance however, I believe, is very case sensitive. I would never knowingly allow the employment of public Surveillance to gather information for the state. However, private enterprise (where the term is applicable) would be allowed to engage in light surveillance of their own property to ensure the safe transaction of goods. The state's powers must be clearly illustrated to the public, creating a system of trust with the governmental system. To this extent, my civics regard around the relationship between the government and the people, from the perspective of the people. Involving the people in government through any mean necessary is the top priority, and one of the core reasons for the existence of any government at all.

The People

Populism is often maligned as many things, Ochlocracy, tyranny of the majority. But criticism of populism is often guilty of misunderstanding what populism is. Truly, in it's current form, populism is an opportunistic tool. to claim to be 'of the people' is useless, because modern liberal democracy demands a certain level of separation between the people and the government, who see themselves as a bureaucratic class in of themselves. As a result, I believe populism is an outdated term. It has become the very thing it swore to destroy, a puppet for oligarchism. As a result, we need to bring about the conditions populism desires so that it's reach on politics can end. This includes ending governmental corruption by introducing harsher penalties for acts deemed corrupt, forbidding members of parliament from holding other sources of income, and instituting the Alternative vote in the short term, and a semi-direct democratic code in the long term. Members of parliament must be made accountable and representative of their constituency, a feat that will be achieved by forcing them to spend more time in their constituency, digitalising parliament to allow for them to spend more time in the place they represent. Also, an immediate removal system will be implemented, abolishing the 1922 committee and allowing the people to remove any elected official immediately by way of a simple referendum, with more than 55% required to remove the incumbent figure.

Case Study: The Houses Of Parliament

Parliament, immediately, would be digitalised. In-person meetings would be restricted to times of emergency, and PMQs, voting on bills, and parliamentary discussion will all be conducted online. Then, the house of lords would be abolished completely, replaced by a house of metropolitan mayors, who themselves would be given more power, but would have the added benefit of being elected, merely by a larger field of people. In essence, Tony Benn's Commonwealth Of Britain Bill would be instituted into affect immediately.

Best/Worst Parts Of My Ideology?

Relations

I've gutted this so i can begin to add people onsite.

100% Invited to the coalition

Rocksism - There is a unique history to anarchism on the wiki, I'm sure you would agree; of course, I've never found myself particularly partial to the ideas of anarchism, but as far as the wiki is concerned, there is a legacy to it Airisu left, O'Lang retired and Ashley is gone. You are the lost generation of PCB leftwing anarchists. And the massive amount of influence that I have taken from your page? I feel comfortable saying that you are the best anarchist on PCB, hands down. Economically, you can just take all I said about Yoda and just magnify it. I just might read synthesis anarchism.

Invited to the coalition

  • Meridionalism - Such a shame that Mr Boleque turned you into a liberal, get well soon lucy <3

Invited to the coalition with skepticism

  • Neo-Glencoeism - I had already held you to your former insert's standards last time i wrote this, so i will not inhibit my criticisms once again with that little disagreement. Outside of what i did used to agree with, you have maintained the culturally progressive politics that allow me to tolerate any right wing tendencies, and I respect that your current ideology is much more mature in it's belief than it's predecessor. However, you have become something idolized by the right as what 'a leftist should look like', which is a hilarious notion, i am sure you will admit.

Would have better luck joining the BNP
