    @EF @LaChasseuse
    I know people who work in the civil service, and all I can say is that is not what's happening as far as they can tell.

    But even if it was, instead of Labour you could vote for a party with progressive policy goals, who would have the civil service implement them, just as previous governments have done with disastrously regressive policies.

    I don't think anyone praising this video is planning to vote Labour.

    @petealexharris @EF @LaChasseuse I also know a few civil servants, and no, they’re not a grey power behind the throne.

    The problem is more subtle; when all the official & unofficial training says ‘find a way to work in partnership with the private sector”, & the private sector is full of friendly people looking to give help and experience and make you look good for the minister, you’ve been captured. And your ideas & the minister’s ideas are the same, because they’re thinking for both of you.

      @BashStKid And all three groups went to the same schools.
      Luckily, the Greens fall outside that "chummy" parameter and are less likely to be swayed.

        @phf The Scottish Greens went into a kind of coalition with the Scottish National Party (centre left, social dem) during a minority gov't situation, and really used the leverage that gave them to push the edges of where the SNP would normally go. So now we have country-wide free bus travel for people 22 and under, rent controls and a few other good things that wouldn't have happened otherwise.
        They walk the walk, they don't just talk the talk.

        @LaChasseuse I am always happy to learn that my depressing predictions about the world are not always true. 😉 (Although free bus travel is a far cry from taxing the rich in the way they deserve. I am joking!)

          @megatronicthronbanks @LaChasseuse perhaps not BREXIT as sold but BREXIT as 'negotiated' by those who were anti it for sure.

                @LaChasseuse It sounds like Spanberger's as well. She just became governor of Virginia on Saturday

                    @chad @petealexharris @EF @LaChasseuse Oh, whoa, that's *wild*. I cannot even.

                    I hope the responsible party is being held to some standards, there, because yeah. *No to that.*

                      @LaChasseuse I used to think that it's easy for minor parties to make claims. They don't have the experienced MPs or the economics to implement those changes. Now, it seems the major, old guard parties don't know what they're doing either. Is that because I'm getting older and more cynical? Or are they really getting worse?

                      Either way, I'm willing to try something new.

                      The major, old guard, parties are not getting worse; we are just getting the world they wanted us to have.

                      IMHO in order for a minor party to be successful they need to forge a new path, using new techniques and even new economics, because the techniques and economics of the major parties are designed to benefit the super rich minority at the expense of the working class majority.

                          I'd like to disagree with you about this.

                          The person in charge of Brexit in the end was Boris Johnson who was one of the prominent people campaigning for Brexit. He campaigned on an oven ready deal that made him our prime minister with a HUGE majority. No opposition.

                          The top people leading the negotiations were all pro brexit people. They went in super confident thinking they held all the negotiating cards. The UK also chose to "put pressure on the EU" by triggering article 51.

                          I know a lot of Brexiters are saying that its the wrong type of Brexit but this is exactly was they wanted. We have left the EU with a minimal trade deal.
