horsemouth predicts a return to the fashion and dance moves of the 1920ies. (he does not).
in the UK the roaring 20ies were er. 1920 from 1921 on it was stagnation and then depression. (nancy mitford and p.g. woodhouse)
it only looked good from the perspective of the great depression (august 1929 – march 1933). this was followed by more depression and then war.
boom-slump-war-reconstruction as horsemouth summarised the positions of the international communist current on the end of one of bush house's songs. eternal cycles of this bullshit was all capitalism had to offer the working class (and humanity as a whole, they later added).
sten listened to the same documentary. he took the message that the tories have greater tactical freedom from it. (this is true, they are distinctly unencumbered by principles).
julie burchill has fallen at the torygraph. the torygraph is itself attempting to undergo change (to keep up with the necessary changes in the tory party). or so goes the pseudo-debate, the tory party has no deep doctrine to change (it is a virus entirely consisting of the will to power). the torygraph is the newspaper of the complacency, fear and entitlement of a rump of tory voters (the ones too posh for the daily mail).
horsemouth has been reading victor pelevin (to go with the zinovy zinik). pelevin is a writer of the post-soviet craziness, and the late soviet insanity recalled, zinik the writer of exile, guilt and recovery.
