The whole "red wall" thing is nothing more than a euphemism for an age long gone. The working class, the proletariat, are not white miners and dockers like days gone by. It's retail, gig economy, zero hours jobs. Delivery drivers and shelf stackers. And crucially, it's...

...multicultural, multiracial and more diverse than it has ever been. The sooner that people realise this, the better. Less of the fucking flag waving, sycophantic behaviour towards the "red wall" and more focus on where the dormant power of the working class really lies.

I'm proud of my own working class heritage, like a great many of people from where I live, many family members worked at Lairds or Blue Funnel many decades ago. But thinking that that world still exists is to deny the reality of the world we live in now. And it should be...

...cause for celebration and for optimism, for hope. There are more of us, from more diverse backgrounds, than there are of them. We shouldn't be statifying our working classes, we should be uniting them

If you're white and working class, instead of being afraid that somehow your voice isn't being heard, how about adding your voice to those voices of others who are being oppressed? Makes more sense to me than to get on some Blue Labour shitwagon.
