Blarism = Gaullism

I've thought for a while that New Labour was very similar to Gaullism in that it was built around a personality, rather than any very coherant set of beliefs, or any solid interest group. Gaullism melted away very fast once the General departed. Likewise, New Labour appears to fading very fast now that Tony Blair has left. There is a lot squabbling, but over very little. After the election, there won't be a New Labour party to inherit. There might not even be a Labout Party.
