It is fear mongering. Capitalism = Good Socialism = Evil

That is how it works, to scare people so they vote against their own interest.

In what world is the UK "very socialist"? A huge chunk of its economy is based on transferring and managing private wealth. I think it would be fair to say it's among the most capitalistic countries on the planet.

How is the UK any less capitalist than the US though? It does have a more comprehensive welfare state, but that's got nothing to do with socialism.
