Gordon praises Dame Thatcher and now a Tory doner has changed sides.
What game is old Gordon playing, its certainly not a socialist one!

the labour party is a faithless betrayer of the honest working folk who sought a respite from a decade & a half of tory atrocity. i hang my head in shame that i ever voted for the party of my ancestors.

ISMS don't win elections, that's why Labour are in government and not still in opposition. Not even Thatcherism won elections. She only won because she was up against a more hardline socialism a greedy public would never vote for.
The game he is playing is clear. Divide and conquer. Gordon is a clever chap and will be an even better PM than Blair, if that is possible.

The Labour Party (aka 'New' Labour) under Blair was never truly socialist.
Blair's 'New Labour' party was a bit left of Genghis Kahn.
Give Gordon a chance. He hasn't had his 100 days yet.
Where were you during the Blair years, that you've only just woken up?

oh yes the labour party was formed many moons ago to protect the working man and his rights and to show we are proud to be British it has all gone people from other country's have more rights than us they are giving out millions to help education and it is all spent on management level people crime is rife murders rapes robbery all they are worried about is dishing out asbos it stinks but most of you agree to it by either not voting or voting labour in the first place don't forget you parents voted labour but labour was labour in them days wake up people you have one right left and that right is the right to vote use it next time while you have the chance Dave

They realised that If they didn't steal the Tory policies they would never get elected, so that's what Tony did and Gorn is following in his master's footsteps.

You've just noticed?
The Labour Party died 18 years ago.

yeah, well, they only called it "new labour" because "the conservative party" was already taken.
