Complaints from an old socialist about modern political life as people move away from social democratic consensus. Some good points but a lot of whingeing from someone that sounds uncomfortable at the changing of the generational guard. Also, no discussion whatsoever on how financially sustainable social democracy is, but at least a cogent criticism of identity politics & the part it's played in the current malaise. February 2013.
