Sosialistiese Brittanje sal nie meer 'afgeruk' word onder # Labour - # McDonnell
Britain’s main opposition Labour Party wants to radically transform the economy, forming a Socialist society where “we’re not going to get ripped off any more”, its finance policy chief, John McDonnell (Foto), said on Sunday (20 May), skryf Elizabeth Piper.
With Labour almost neck-and-neck in the polls with the governing Conservatives, who lost their majority in last year’s election, its leader Jeremy Corbyn and others are setting out their stall ahead of a new election not due until 2022.
McDonnell told the BBC that he had been talking to business leaders to offer them clarity on Labour’s policies.
But he added: “It’s (about) transforming our economy.”
“I don’t think there is (a difference with overthrowing capitalism) ... because I think at the end of the day I want a Socialist society and that means transforming in a way which radically challenges the system as it now is.”
“I think it took a wrong turn when (late leader Hugo) Chavez went, and I think unfortunately since then I don’t think they have been following the Socialist policies that Chavez was developing.”
