British political slogans all sound increasingly like quotes from The Sphinx character as he trains the Mystery Men. "When you care what is outside, what is inside cares for you".

SPHINX: Your temper is very quick, my friend.
But until you master your rage ...

MR. FURIOUS: I know, your rage will become your master. Thats what you were going to say. Right? Right?

SPHINX: Not necessarily.

Is it a rebranded version of Cameron's "big society" or whatever it was called? (which, if I recall, disappeared without trace)

Edit: oops, I see @C R beat me too it

After the revelations about his porky peccadilloes emerged, I always assumed that was a typo.

Makes zero difference to me, but, haven't Oakeshott's "revelations" been discredited?

I think there's a consensus that if Oakeshot says it is cold outside you should wear shorts and t-shirt.

I haven't heard the speech, but the Times reports it as a defence of British institutions under attack by the Tory government in their culture war.

To be honest I have no idea.

But for the purposes of lampooning the politically despicable, I tend to think that episode of Black Mirror is an example of art imitating life.

Oink.

Yeah, what you are doing (bitching on the internet) is far more useful to desperate families.

Back to a saner Blairism. Currently it is not a labour for the marxists.
Plenty are voting for labour, even those who want rid of FPTP.
