New Labour, Same Old Dinosaurs:

Just when you thought the union dinosaurs were safely corralled in New Labour's "Jurassic Park", they have broken out.

Unison are threatening to strike over privatisation of the NHS supply network. Civil servants are threatening to strike over pay cuts, job losses and privatisation.

Union leaders are flexing political muscles in a way not seen since the early 1980s, when Mrs Thatcher tamed them.

And Tony Blair, the man who made New Labour electable and won three consecutive general elections, faces possible humiliation today, at what could be an even more than usually ill-tempered and hostile TUC general congress.

Today could be the day when the Labour Party commits electoral suicide, again.

It was.
