"Can you explain why the trades union movement has continued to support a government whose policies have actively and deliberately caused the expropriation and transfer of relative wealth and purcahsing power from the non-property-owning class to the speculative property-owning-class, to an extent that would make Margaret Thatcher blush with shame?"
