Comrades,
Some comrades here have been reprimanding the Collective for having lost its way. That we have become soft and that we spend our time blabbering about issues like equality, racism and things like that like we really care about them when these are only buzzwords we use to indoctrinate the masses. The Chairman wrote a scathing post about how we have forgotten what true socialism is all about; redistributing the wealth of the masses into the pockets of the elite (ourselves).
Imagine my surprise when I was checking what the opposition is up to when I came across this description some reactionary journalist wrote about a meeting with one of the elite in Brussels:
Shortly after the first Irish No in 2008, I found myself at a gala dinner in Brussels. Sitting on a gilt armchair in a panelled stateroom, I was told by the head of a Brussels think-tank that the Irish result proved the idiocy of putting EU treaties to the people. “Fucking voters,” he declared, languidly extending one arm so the hovering steward could refill his champagne glass. “I mean, fucking voters, what do they know?” I still wish I had walked out.

Comrades, there's much we could learn from the Party elite in Brussels. I had suspected them of being eurosofties; basically useful idiots and to be reviled – but this changed my mind. Let this be an inspiration to all of us.
