Just read your answer to my post again Maestro. You questioned whether getting labour out would actually help us considering that the Conservatives agree with funding for 2 year olds. My answer is that (please bear with me) the Labour Government have an inaccurate understanding of Marxism which fashions their policies.
Labour 'sell' themselves as some sort of 'peoples party' whereby a Labour vote counts towards the greater good for the masses. The masses being all of those who are either Government employees (including Council workers like Sure Start employees etc.), or who are unemployed etc. The Labour Government find private business to be total anathema as the private business is not wholly contributing to the Labour coffers (this is why Labour will always make things difficult for private businesses.)
Where Labour initially goes wrong is the same reason that Russsia went wrong. Labour believe that an unchecked free market will destroy the economy because Marx said that what would happen would be that big business, through economies of scale would keep getting bigger, while smaller fish would drop out, until finally, only the biggest fish would remain. Marx said that would be the time to worry, when only the biggest fish remained they would put up their formally low prices because they had no competition (then he said there would be a revolution, because all the wealth would be in the hands of the few while the majority went without.)
Where Russia, and Labour got it wrong is that they somehow believe that Marx agreed with all of this. He did not. He was warning us. One thing he did overlook though, it wouldn't turn out to be business that was our downfall, but government.
It's the Labour government that is getting bigger (got bigger) and stronger. It's the Labour government who will be our downfall.
The Conservatives however, believe that private business creates wealth because the finances of the business are in the hands of individuals who directly gain or loose by their own business practices. Therefore, things like Conservative support of 2 year old funding will mean that in the event of a Conservative takeover, you can be sure that 2 year olds will not be poached by schools because private business can administer it without making a loss for the country. t
