What makes a socialist is dodging inheritance tax and having two kitchens in your mansion. You pretend the smaller one is the only one and when challenged you say you only use it for tea and quick snacks. Solidarity, comrades!

Pathetic commentary in the usual binary format from the Right. Whether you’re rich, poor or just middling, what makes a socialist is someone who cares about others, wants a decent life to everyone, is not racist and who stands up for the vulnerable. Someone who pays their tax gladly in the hopes that it will be used wisely for the benefit of all and regards equality as a human right.

Why is anyone surprised by lies of this nature. It’s what fascists do and they are ably abetted by the right wing media, which is most of it. Try looking for truth in the ‘Wapping Liar’, The ‘Daily Mugger or the slow express and you won’t find it about the Labour party !

The corporate media’s view of socialists:

If they’re rich, they’re hypocrites.

If they’re poor, they’re envious.

Nothing wrong with a millionaire socialist if you win the lottery or your rich daddy gave it to you. Exploiting workers and supporting the Capitalist Mafia EU does not make you a socialist.

I am also married to a multi-millionairess coffee plantation owner who sells £10 bags of coffee having paid only £1 for ALL the labour involved.

Do as I say, comrades, not as I do.

Maybe they will get it wrong about someone with the money to sue the shit out of them! I am intensely relaxed about partners of Labour M.P.’s having a bit of money provided they don’t avoid their taxpaying responsibilities. Anyone who is an owner-occupier of a house in London like Jeremy Corbyn is probably a paper millionaire. It seems that the gutter press expects socialists to be on subsistence income if they are not to be pilloried as hypocrites!
