IT is time to stop calling the nutjobs that have invaded our governing organs "socialists" and steel the British term for these thuggish traitors in the government, in the media and in the press: BOLSHIES a short form of Bolshevik and meaning according to the OED a violent combative person usually of socialist persuasion.
It is the perfect term and we need not try to call them democrats which they aren't or liberals which they certainly aren't and maybe we can finally steal back and use the word "liberal" in its proper meaning because you know what, "conservative" isn't really working for us very well either.
And to tell you how far gone the UK is, infested by rabid Bolshies, "Bolshie" is regarded as an archaic and obsolete term, which is all the better for our purposes.
I think Bolshies is excellent. I did call them pinkos for a while, and my generally used term is commiepukes.
“Bolshies” - I likes it.
I applaud your proposal.
Bolshies it is.
