Difference between revisions of "Talk:Nick Cohen"

Revision as of 00:26, July 19, 2007

In fairness to our friends on the other side of the Atlantic, we ought to point out that Nick Cohen would never, ever be thought of as the equivalent (politically, economically or morally) of an American "neo-conservative" here in Britain. It is typically American and politically naive to assume that somene is a neocon, simply because he writes books and articles condemning Tony Blair's New Labour Party. If you knew anything, you'd know that most on the political left in the UK complain about New Labour, whom they see as having moved so far to the Right that they are no longer Left, and usually the further 'Left' they are, the more they complain. The fact that Roy Hattersley, the Washington Post, the Guardian, Harold Pinter and the like are quoted on his site as being enormously admiring of his work should have informed you, but of course you just took the simplistic view of things, as usual.

Your rules do not apply ouside your own country, I'm sorry. BritLibDem 20:26, 18 July 2007 (EDT)
