I think there would be a great amount of benefit to be found in a group of leftists pushing to really create a movement to bring to the fore the crushing realities of global liberal finance, the city of London's role in this and the tax avoidance commonwealth.
Because when you perceive what is going on with some clarity the picture is truly staggering.
As a starting point for us interested folk, I'd recommend
Western Media’s Narrow, Colonial Definition of "Corruption" - Citations Needed podcast.
Noam Chomsky: "Free Markets?" - Chomsky on Free Markets and Liberal capital.
The City: London and the Global Power of Finance - The City of London Corporation.
Treasure Islands: Tax Havens and the Men who Stole the World by Nicholas Shaxson
And then ask yourself to name a Commonwealth territory.
The Virgin Islands? Tax haven.
The Isle of Man? Tax haven.
Jersey? Tax haven.
Guernsey? Tax haven
The Cayman Islands? uhggg I dunno chief, they a tax haven?
>"But we can't impose our tax laws there! It's an independent territory!"
>"But of course, we can transfer cash over there! To impede liberal cash flows would be to impede the free market and cut them out of our liberal banking institutions"
The wealth transfers from the global North (Western world) to the global south via charity and government aid is nearly $2 trillion a year.
The global wealth transfers from the global South to the global North via liberal finance as proscribed under neoliberalism and facilitated by institutions such as the world bank and IMF are over $5 trillion a year.
The majority of this is through the city of London Corporation.
We as a nation are histories greatest thieves, and the saddest fucking fact is those who benefit from this, won't even allow us to fund the NHS.
It is beyond a travesty, if this was known by every citizen in the country right now, I fully believe the government would be out on the streets by this time tomorrow.
Except you know, preservation of values and moral virtue. If you’re actually curious you should take the chance to read this book sometime

Give anyone who will listen a copy of this book.
The media assault on Corbyn has been outrageous and remarkably effective. Take the claims of anti-semitism within the Labour party for instance. A close look shows it to be almost complete fraud, particularly if you compare it with anti-semitism and racism within the Conservative party. Why so onesided? The media are adjuncts of government who serve elite interests. The Conservatives pose no threat to established power, Labour on the other hand does and so they must be shown to be evil in anyway possible. For a good examination of the latter case take a look at 'Bad News For Labour' by Greg Philo and others. Here is a link for it on the publishers website and amazon.
