Capitalism is failing - neoliberal, globalist capitalism particularly so. It doesn't matter which version of capitalism you follow, the US one, the Chinese one, the European one, it's failing. As neither party in the UK, nor anywhere else for that matter, is willing to face this fact, then neither party can formulate any rational policies and have been reduced to mouthpieces of a failing status quo, they are the political "Band that Played On" the same as the one on the the Titanic as it foundered, playing the same well rehearsed music that had got them the job on board in the first place, but didn't help them much in the end. It earned them immense respect for human stoicism in the face of failure, but I doubt our political masters will get much respect in history.
