For the earthquake—it chokes up many wells, it causes much languishing: but it brings also to light inner powers and secrets. The earthquake discloses new fountains. In the earthquake of old peoples, new fountains burst forth.
Nietzsche, Thus Spoke Zarathustra, ‘On the Old and New Law Tablets’, 25.

It seems that all the establishment parties are now pandering to the “needs of the people” agenda and are steering away from the “blame the poor” agenda of the far right UKIP.

This seismic shift in UK political discourse was brought about not only by the disintegration of the binary two-party system in the UK, but also by the emergence of viable and credible minority options, such as the Scottish National Party, the Green Party and Plaid Cymru – The Party of Wales. Their inclusion in the first debate and their obvious success on that night have altered the landscape of the UK irreversibly.

I will not burden you with a detailed history, but will try to describe this new landscape.

Luchte calls for a shift away from the European narrative of Neo-Liberal Austerity towards one which focuses upon European sovereignty, public expenditure and the satisfaction of the needs of the people.

The Anti-Austerity UK Alliance is enacting a strategy of holding the balance of power in a hung parliament, and the possible formation of a Coalition government with the Labour Party at the cost of ending austerity, rejecting Trident renewal and negotiations on a range of other issues, including devolution.

Beginning with the point of departure of Hölderlin in Kant and Fichte, Mortal Thought outlines the novel philosophical innovations of Hölderlin, and their influence upon philosophy from the 19th century to the present day. A renewed appreciation of Hölderlin will allow us to retrieve an authentic philosophy for our own era. Mortal Thought lays out a concise, clear and comprehensive account of the emergence of Hölderlin as philosopher and poet, of his influence upon the four dominant strands of Continental philosophy - Nietzsche, Heidegger, Critical Theory and Poet-structuralism - and of his relevance for us in our own era. - See more at: http://www.bloomsbury.com/us/mortal-thought-9781474238175/#sthash.nsBIXa3u.dpuf
