Cartesiano a demontar o populismo de John Major.
O antigo primeiro ministro Tory a criticar o Partido Consevador e o Partido Labour por aquilo tudo cheirar mal, a mofo do ensino privado votoriano.
Então o Sir John Major que diga o que ele faz no partido tribalista Tory-Conservador de privilégios? Então que tenha a honestidade de pelos menos abandonar esse partido que não tem por onde se lhe pegue.
O Labour também não ter feito o melhor pela mudança radical de política, mas pelo menos não tirou o leite às crianças nas escolas, nem fechou as contas das crianças, não aumentou asm propinas universitárias para ums 10 mil libras e feax endividar os estudantes. Bem, não faz, porque nem sequer ousa por os pés na universidade, ou nem tem notas para entrar.
Foi o Partido Tory-Conservador do John Major que stá fazendo estas doideiras e ainda mais.
Tanto o Sir John Major como todo o Partido Tory-Conservador já se apercebeu que têm feito tantas bárbaries contra o povo britânico e que não têm nenhuma hipóse de ganhar as eleiçãoes em 2015.
Tudo quanto se fará a partir deste momento será para tentarem salvar o Partido Tory-Conservador de um desastre total.
A maneira catastrófica e populista como têm gerido o país só os pode conduzir a uma queda vertiginosa donde não se levantarão durante muito tempo.
A Escócia está tão farta dos Tory- Conservadores ao ponto de querem separar-se do Reino Unido e vão ter un referendo sobre a independência em 2014.
IT SUCKS!

Private school influence in public life 'shocking' says Major
Sir John suggests the privately educated have too much influence in public life
The influence that a privately educated, middle-class elite have on public life is "shocking", former prime minister Sir John Major has said.
Sir John said the "upper echelons of power" were dominated by those from a similar background.
In a speech to Tory activists reported in the Daily Telegraph he blamed "the collapse in social mobility" on the failures of the last Labour government.
More than half the current cabinet were educated at private schools.
David Cameron was educated at Eton, as was the Mayor of London Boris Johnson and the Archbishop of Canterbury The Right Reverend Justin Welby.
Nick Clegg attended Westminster while George Osborne and deputy Labour leader Harriet Harman went to St Paul's. In contrast, Sir John - prime minister between 1990 and 1997 - grew up in Brixton and left his comprehensive school with three O-levels.
'Victorian divide'
In a speech to the South Norfolk Conservative Association's annual dinner, he bemoaned what he said was the lack of people from working and lower middle class backgrounds in positions of influence in British institutions.
"In every single sphere of British influence, the upper echelons of power in 2013 are held overwhelmingly by the privately educated or the affluent middle class," he said.
"To me, from my background, I find that truly shocking."
Sir John said the Labour government, in power between 1997 and 2010, had left a legacy of a "Victorian divide between stagnation and aspiration" which current leader Ed Miliband was in no position to address.
Too many children, he added, were "locked into the circumstances in which they were born" as a result of a lack of educational opportunities.
He added: "I remember enough of my past to be outraged on behalf of the people abandoned when social mobility is lost... we need them to fly as high as their luck, their ability and their sheer hard graft can actually take them.
"And it is not going to happen magically."
Help for savers
Sir John also called for more help for savers, who have seen their incomes eroded by "cripplingly unfair" low interest rates since 2008.
He urged the Bank of England to raise interest rates to "normal levels", which he suggested were between 3% and 5%, as soon as was economically feasible.
He also advised his party against "personal attacks" on UKIP, suggesting many of their supporters were natural Conservatives who were "patriotic Britons" who felt "bewildered" by the pace of social change.
The speech is his second intervention in contemporary politics in a matter of weeks, after his call earlier this month for a windfall tax on energy profits in the event of a harsh winter and a warning about hidden "lace curtain poverty".
The BBC's political editor Nick Robinson said he did not believe the comments were an attack on the current Conservative leadership but a plea for those from modest backgrounds to have more influence in public life.
The former prime minister, Nick Robinson added, was speaking up for what he regarded as his party's natural constituency, the hard-working but aspiring majority who were not well-off.
