Polly Toynbee, UK Guardian columnist and champagne socialist (house in fashionable Clapham and villa in Tuscany) has been rightly described by Boris Johnson as the living embodiment of all the nannying, high-taxing, high-spending schoolmarminess of the liberal left.

The whole socialist states of Europe are tanking as we speak, even the used to be rich, Germans. Not only that their cities are overrun with Mozlem scum...how smart is all THAT?
The Mutual Admiration Society speaks ...
My post concerns both the UK and America. UK is damn near lost and we are following somewhat the same trail.
OP, the headline is incorrect. It should say UK guardian communist, not columnist.
Response: I don't know about that; but they have used whatever intelligence they do have in order to totally dominate each and every institution of Western Society; Economics, Politics, Media, crime and punishment; marriage, financial institutions, education, business etc. etc. etc.
Comment: The one thing I admire about the left is the fact they never surrender. Even if defeated in a given battle they keep coming back until finally they win the war. The normalization of homosexuality is the prime example. This perverted enterprise has achieved almost total victory over normal society with the only remaining goal being the lowering of the age of consent to about twelve. Once lowering the age of consent is achieved the harvesting of the youth can begin.
those who keep telling themselves that they’re smart are the ones who are dumb but trying to tell people they’re not.
Also if they were so smart then why keep doing the same policies which fail ALL THE TIME.
And conservatives have bigger wangs, are better looking and can manage business better. Hey, we can be neurotically narcissistic too.
So you think they think? I think they FEEEEEEL more smarter!
Left Wing People Are More Intelligent...
Than prairie chickens?
Lemmings?
Rocks?
Aged tofu?
Dust bunnies?
(we could go on all day.)
Left wing people are stupid.
That’s why they’re forced to keep stealing our money to live.
That pretty much says it all...and when SHTF day hits, they will try to run to America to hide...Then I will be all about CLOSING the borders...
Toynbee is a complete idiot and always has been, but then so are the people on here proclaiming the death of the UK. Britain will endure as she always has, in no small part due to her population being 92% white anglo-saxon celtic and 3% muslim.
Judging the UK by what Polly Toynbee says is like judging America by what your president says - pointless and misleading.
Then Lenin must have been a genius. Let’s examine his extraordinary brain. Um, barely any convolutions. The Hemispheres are nearly smooth. OMG, the Bolsheviks turned Russia over to Abby Normal!
Precisely. Why people who seem unable to reason think that they are intelligent is baffling, unless it is, as I once read someone described, that he had read so much about thought that he thought he thought.
Leftist Template:
(in case you were wondering the strategy behind such an absurd article)
I Thou shalt create an illusion of invulnerability shared by most members to foster excessive optimism and encourage extreme risks taking
II Thou shall not allow any member to question the groups inherent morality, instead members shall be encouraged to ignore the ethical or moral consequences of their decisions
III Thou shalt promote collective efforts to rationalize in order to discount warnings, or other information that might lead members to reconsider their assumptions before they recommit themselves to their assumptions
IV Thou shalt reinforce stereotyped views of enemy leaders as too evil to warrant genuine attempts to negotiate, or as too weak and stupid to counter whatever risky attempts are made to defeat their purpose
V Thou shalt self-censor any deviation from the apparent group consensus, inclining each member to minimize the importance of their doubts and counterarguments
VI Thou shalt create and maintain a shared illusion of unanimity concerning judgement conforming to the majority view
VII Thou shalt apply direct pressure on any member who expresses strong arguments against any of the groups stereotypes, illusions, or commitments, making clear that this type of dissent is contrary to what is expected of all loyal members
VIII Thou shalt appoint mindguards to protect the group from adverse information that might shatter their shared complacency about the effectiveness and morality of their decisions
