Marxism is alive and well – and marching under the Tory banner
by Kathy Gyngell, TCW:
[…] Their contempt for social conservatism has been palpable. They watched as the family came under attack from the Left. First they bowed to feminist demands, later they took the lead. Under David Cameron and Theresa May, they’ve executed a triple whammy: escalating the transfer of financial benefits through the tax system from the responsible – married couples – to the irresponsible, rights-entitled singles and lone parents; removing marriage’s very meaning with the gay marriage act; and waging war on motherhood. With an interventionist daycare and workplace ‘gender parity’ programme, they have done their best to destroy relations between the sexes as well as the interdependency that sustains responsible parenting. Finally, as a logical consequence of the rights-driven Equalities Act, they’ve engaged in the most potentially revolutionary act to date – promising gender self identification legislation, a lunacy that could have been taken straight from a neo-Trotskyite’s struggle for State power handbook.
