Yeah, I'm sure that would work out great.
It'd be just like Cuba!
Maybe being a "classless" country with an agenda of "equality" would be great. But I've never actually seen it work anywhere. It seems all the countries that try to acheive that ideal just end up making life suck for everyone but a select few.

Oh brother! You're kidding, right?
I visited Russia back when it was still the Soviet Union back in the 80s, and there's no way in hell I'd want to live like that!
In response to your call for "pushing an agenda forward to achieve equality" - I have three points:
1. Most everyone would be equally miserable
2. Pushing an agenda to achieve equality means hammering down individual creativity. Do you really want that?
3. To push an agenda of equality really means "enforcing" an agenda of equality. And if one has to "enforce" equality, then guess what, the enforcers and the masses are no longer equal.
I've seen the "fruits" of communism first hand, and it ain't pretty!

It will take a lot more than communism to make Britain a better place. They can start the ball rolling by relinquishing their colonies. Once it is realized what should be governed by Britain, only then can it be decided how it should be governed by Britain. One step at a time.

Yeah right, just look how well communism always works out.People literally starving in the streets of North Korea, Cubans willing to risk their lives in the Atlantic ocean to get out of that communist hellhole and tanks mowing over protesters in China. Not to mention forced abortions, jailing of political prisoners, no freedom of any kind and the rest of it. I don't know what you think communism is but you should study some history.

I don't know much about the current situation in Britain, but isn't Communism something awful, to be avoided? I know so many people were tortured and had no rights or freedom to even LIVE during Communism! I am sure you are just thinking out loud, but I almost cringe to wonder why?

Since the start of communism, communist states have murdered 100 million people, and 35 million people have fled communist states as refugees.
People fight to leave communist states. They never fight to get into them. People fight to get into democracies like the United States. Cubans die trying to get here. East Germans died trying to get into West Germany.
The main country's in the world who commit genocide are communist led countries. If you want to see the true effects of communism on a society, then look at North Korea.

That small hunk of rock has been responsible for the deaths of millions around the world and with its allies killed millions for not accepting Jesus and Christianity . The Spanish killed tens of thousands of native Americans in north south and central America .
Natives on Islands all over the pacific where converted or killed by missionary's ,Governments set up and resources redistributed to the British empire . Lords ran Islands around the world and Countries returning the Goods and precious metals back to england .
Has the world suffered enough under the flag of democracy and freedom yet or will we continue to kill in the name of God and country .

Don't worry. The radical Muslims in Britain will make sure that you won't be troubled by Communism. They won't tolerate anything but their own unique version of Islam.
Of course you can always protect yourself from attack by either of these radical groups with your personal firearm, or did you turn that in?

NO!!Great Britain should stay the same as it is. Communism is a failed concept because of absolutely no freedoms of any kind, no property ownership.
