It's a sad sign of the times when Trotsky makes more sense than a soi-dissant conservative home secretary, but here we are with our cities burning and Theresa May is still jabbering about policing by consent.
That will be some negotiation, all right: maybe she's hoping she can get them to agree to only loot one in every two shops?
Of course, this is par for the course for the Nu Tories. The essence of Cameronism is the belief that everything is negotiable and the shortest distance between two points is always straight down the middle.
The worst of it is that this isn't mere spinelessness. On the contrary, in the demented world of the Nu Dave Order, moral equivalence is not only a sign of sophistication, it's their sole raison d'etre. They might be awful at running the country, but look how nuanced and sophisticated are their positions!
The country's burning and silver-spoon degenerate fops are penning oestrogen-laden articles lamenting the incivility of those awful right-wing Mobophobes. Exhibit A here.
Hey, shoot looters, don't shoot looters. There's arguments either way, but nothing sums up the sheer fecklessness of Cameronism like a member of the demographic that's been busy complimenting each other on their fiddling while London burns suddenly start demanding the purging of anyone who says they can smell smoke.
'Modern Conservatism' is a sick, disgusting fraud. A incestuous dogpile of smug, elitist, no-marks looking down their noses at anyone with a proper job, even while they can't even pass the basic test of maintaining law and order.

Spot on!
I so had to tweet this blog post.
Love the last line.
"policing has, to some extent, failed"
Laughs derisively. Does he mean that poor people's areas burned but his super Thracian delicatessen in his leafy borough is unharmed?
"He has no part in modern Conservativism"
He is right about that, but not in the way he thinks. Modern 'Dave' conservatism is defined as making whatever concessions to lunatic progressivism are needed to keep Dave & co in power. They are a tribe, with their tribe's interests at the heart of everything they do. They are an exact opposite copy of New Labour.
