The Liquidation of the Ruling Class

This manifesto does not explain how the NLF will gain power, which will be the subject of future posts but rather what it would do having gained power.


The policies that an NLF government would pursue would be one that would break the power of the plutocratic ruling class and restore a free and homogeneous Britain. Some of this analysis is based upon the work of Sean Gabb's 'Manifesto for the Right' made in 2001, with a few important revisions. The policy of the NLF would not be one of moderate reforms, but rather would within the first 100 days shut down much of regulatory agencies and thus cripple the plutocratic ruling class to stop from attempting it to take back power before it is entirely liquidated.

In its first few days of government the NLF will abolish all the regulatory departments such as the Department of Trade and Industry, Culture and Sport, Education and Training, Agricultural, Fisheries and Food. Local government functions that deal with town planning and child welfare would equally be abolished, alongside all manner of financial regulatory authorities. The employees of these departments should be sacked and the legislation enabling these organisation should be repealed. The above agencies are only examples of the agencies that would be abolished as the NLF would run through all regulatory bodies with a fine tooth comb and abolish each one guilty of enabling primary statism.

Not one more penny would be spent subsidising the transportation infrastructure to lower the distribution costs of big business. The railways and trunk roads would be genuinely privatised and handed over to the workers to run them as co-operative enterprise. Local roads would be handed over to local residents. Intellectual property and copyright would be declared null and void. The NLF would allow corporations to continue to operate under limited liability law at greatly increased taxation but no further incorporation under limited liability would be permitted.

Education would continue to be funded by government, but its curriculum would be determined by local residents. State schools would also be supplemented by private schools and home schools funded by vouchers. State funding for Higher Education would continue, tuition fees should be abolished and a modest grant restored. Whilst existing students shall remain unaffected the NLF will reverse the expansion of higher education by progressively limiting the number of places to around 10% of high school graduates. Although Higher Education is a bastion of the ruling class the purpose of these retaining goverment funding is not to alienate students who the NLF will need to draw on for activists.

The welfare state will be left substantially alone and part of the revenue savings created by our abolition of regulatory agencies should be used to increase the state pension and abolish means testing for benefits. Any later reforms of the welfare state to reduce welfare dependency or privatise pensions ought to be careful not to penalise any existing claimants. The NHS should continue to be funded by government, but the work contracted out to private individuals and co-operatives (Not corporations).

On matters of race and immigration, the race relations industry will find itself unemployed and laws against free speech and association should be repealed. Legislation will be passed forbidding further non-white immigration and as to the existing ethnic minorities in Britain an NLF government would look to their legal status. Illegal immigrants should be rounded up and deported without compensation, Legal immigrants working on visa's should not be permitted to renew them when they expire. No compulsion will be exercised to immigrants and their descendants who have been in Britain long enough to obtain citizenship, rather as part of the liquidation of the ruling class the NLF will offer generous financial incentives for such minorities to voluntarily return to their countries of origins. Whilst they remain in Britain they will retain full civil and legal rights.

The NLF would also change the tax system to remove the burden of taxation off ordinary people and small business and shift it to the plutocratic ruling class. With the tax savings generated from destroying much of the regulatory bureaucracy as well as the tax increases for corporations and other ruling class interests, ordinary people will see their tax bill shrink significantly whilst keeping much of the welfare state.

Such policies if implemented will ensure the liquidation of Britain's plutocratic ruling class in a manner which would be least painfull for the ordinary people who are exploited by it.
