The British Parliamentarian Who Jumped Ship From Socialism

Socialism promises progress and delivers disaster

“It is seized with the lust for power. The appetite has grown with the eating, and it will not be content until its grasping hands are laid on every section of the industrial and trading life of the nation.”

That’s how Ivor Thomas described the British Labour Party in his 1951 book, “The Socialist Tragedy.” For six years (1942-47), he was a Member of Britain’s House of Commons—representing the very same Labour Party! Prime Minister Clement Attlee even appointed him Parliamentary Secretary to the Ministry of Civil Aviation and, later, Under-Secretary for the Colonies. But when Thomas expressed disillusion with socialism in late 1947, Attlee sacked him. Thomas then switched to the Conservative Party.

I forgot to mention that other reliable(not) news source Cal avails himself to- Red State... The reason I mentioned The Epoch Times is they're a pack of Trump butt sniffers. They were right along with Trumpie denying he had lost the election for a least a month....

pretty cowardly to bitch about the source again, and not research to find another one to judge THE CONTENT.
