Guardian Unlimited | Guardian daily comment | Blairism is just Thatcherism softened for a soppier age
This is a useful piece of journalism and opens the question of how we might treat Straussism internationally. Stuart Hall said to me in Jamaica that he believes the age of Hayekian neo-liberalism is over; we more or less agreed this. The question concerned what else there is. Stuart felt the forceful presence of Thatcher, especially so during the ghastly Reagan funeral. This piece makes a nice link: why would the Tory, Blair, enjoy the neo-cons more than he might a progressive Democrat like Clinton or Kerry?
