@NoBS , I will just respectfully point out that at no point have I mentioned political correctness, or attempted to defend it here. I am well aware that some use political correctness to try and silence the opinions of others. I am not one of those. If I disagree with the opinions I will attack them directly, not attempt to silence them. I am also aware that others criticise political correctness because they want to be free to say obnoxious things and showcase obnoxious prejudices without being thought of as bad. But the PC debate is a whole other issue, really.
And you are critical of what you appear to see as the blame game in every aspect of left wing politics. But what exactly are the right doing when they condemn the entire welfare sysyem and try and make out that everyone who hits hard times is an economic leech and scrounger? Is that not the blame game writ large?
But part of the drive behind left wing politics in my country is to truly make it a country worth fighting for for ALL the people, not just the wealthiest third.
Where are you from originally, may I ask?

That you feel so patriotic towards your adopted country is admirable and worthy of respect.I'm NOT a native Yank. Yet America is the ONLY country worth fighting for IMHO.
