Overtonian Defenestration Through Ambidextrous Revisionism

Since capitalist democracy is essentially a marketing exercise, with public debate reduced to a branch of advertising, political terms are largely meaningless except as expressions of personal preference. Thus the red-baiting blandness Neil Kinnock was denounced as a socialist and crypto-communist by the Poujadist thug Margaret Thatcher, and the state-slashing, poor-bashing, wog-baiting, flag-flaunting administration of Fishy Rishi stands accused of "governing left" by the wannabe thug Kemi Badenoch. Fortunately, matters have been clarified no end by a study rating MPs from the major parties from left to right on a scale of zero to a hundred, according to the judgement of some local councillors. Sir Edward Davey, whose policies in office were identical to those of the Bullingdon Club, is significantly to the left of Team Starmer's CEO, whose policies are arguably slightly different. Badenoch, whose rhetoric is indistinguishable from that of Farage Falange Inc., is actually a couple of points to the left of the strutting Caudillo, presumably owing to their recent disagreements over the quantity of the Falange's registered shareholders. According to the researcher in charge, the purple-faced Regency squire Pigsticker Dave was on the left of the Conservative party; which itself provides an eloquent demonstration of the analytical rigour involved.
