Lazy,Lazy, Lazy I support Labour up to apoint but not unconditionally but when people talk shit about NL i contradict them where i can.
As NL have poured in unprecedented amounts of money into Schools and Hospitals and only a small amount has gone in privatisation. And private companies have always done well out of the NHS and Schools. It's just now the whole issue is so hyped by newsmanagement
How is it lazy to point out that someone who claims they are a socialist and yet supports New Labour (even if critically) is either a hypocrite or doesn´t understand what socilism means?

Its lazy because it just repeats Newsmanagement lies about how NL is so right wing etc. You have no alternative to NL and have never expressed a well thought out critique of NL that doesnt sound cliched.
NL has improved things for many people in this country spending more on Schools and Hospitals and rs what have you ever done for anyone but yourself?

actually, a HUGE amount has been wasted on PPP/PFI, which every time 0- in every specific case - has been found to be the most expensive option, yet is stil favoured by NL due to their unexorcisable, idiot fixation with the private sector as a panacea, and their lack of the necessary intellectual self-confidence to believe in, and big up, the public sector as a deliverer of projects

Yeah a Democratic Socialist if you want to find a label. So i am no great fan of NL but think the far left trendies are worse.

Dont like what i know of PFI. But to pretend that NL has just spent loads on this and not in improving public services in other ways is absurd.
The whole history of the NHS has always been a PPP to an extent. Any idea of how much drug companies have made out of the NHS over the years?
