Are we seeing the end of politics as we know it? Fanatics will rule the roost. facts and experts ignored as the public sakes its thirst on the altar of ignorance? Gone are the days of respect for opposing views.  “I disapprove of what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it,”. Now it is “I will say whatever I want whether true of not”.

Traditional politics were – Conservatives cutting taxes red tape, Labour using taxes to help the disadvantaged and the rights of workers, a vast over simplificaton I know. LibDems were largely a bye-election party, the greens an irrelevance, and the rest were lunatics on the fringe. I did not vote for them, but respected their philosophy that I beleived to be wrong. That changed with Thatcher’s hatred of the working class.

Now we have the fringe being welcomed by the fearful, jealous, angry, stupid and bigoted. Especially the bigoted – the person who deems facts that contradict them as irrelevant. Patriotism and nationalism are archaic terms that I had hoped would be banished from the vocabulary by now – but it is raising its ugly head again – let us hope it does not results in millions of deaths like before!

My mind was already made up before they gave the podium at their annual conference for this! “Aseem Malhotra claimed ‘eminent oncologist’ said jab was ‘significant factor in the cancer of members of royal family’”. Farage also back tracks from saying that he has bought a house in Clacton (he stated this at the time to counter criticism that he never visited), to now saying that his wife bought it and that has nothing to do with avoiding £44000 in tax! He should just fess up and pay the tax.

Has a silver lining. yes Angela has resigned, and yes she was sort of found guilty of breaking the ministerial code in a rather minor way. So now she is freed of the code of “Cabinet responsibility”. She has been loyal to Starmer – a fact that many despaired of!. She will find plenty of back bench support if she chooses to speak out on the issues she cares about. Labour meanwhile appears to have shifted further to the right Lammy has already cosied up to JD Vance.

Meanwhile the Traitor Farage is given a free pass to talk whatever bollox he likes (whilst evading tax) and the public are suckered into his rhetoric of hate and lies. I never thought I would mourn the death of the nasty party – but Badenoch and Jenryck have opened a competition with Reform as to who can say the most outrageous bollocks. The trash papers might regard it as a pyhric victory – who will they pick on with such enthusisam next? Starmer is further to the right than many could have conceived – I for one believed that a Labour victory was better than nothing, how wrong i have been. Starmer could well hand a victory to Farage; especially with Rayner gone; and then the country is REALLY AND TOTALLY FUCKED!

Basically now is the time to introduce legislation for Proportional Representation. Do not have a referendum that money and foreign powers can influence. With PR we (the silent majority) will ensure that we do not lurch into fascism. The Green Party will grow and the Westminster elite wither. yes Reform may gain some short lived gains due to their racism and ridiculous tax promises – but the bastards will not gain the support of the majority (I have faith in the electorate!).

Oh how the press hate Angela Raynor. She appears to have made an honest mistake but is being castigated for it. Boris lied repeatedly to Parliament but was not treated with such hostility. I think it was Hunt who ‘forgot’ to mention that he owned several properties in his Parliamentary disclosures. Jenrick attempted to rush through a planning proposal. All these were forgotten and hardly mentioned. Rayner will be lucky to survive politically.

Meanwhile Jenrick has called for asylum seekers to be housed in camps, presumably with gun towers to keep the poor souls in! Does he understand what asylum seekers have been through? I am surprised he has not called for them to be humiliated first! Against International Law? Then withdraw from the law (even though we inspired and mainly wrote them!).

Basically the opposition in Parliament consists of the Tories who are irrelevant; Reform who are an embarrassment; LibDems – nice but small; The Greens who need some of Zac’s enhancement techniques; and the SNP who have withered despite providing a conscience for the last Parliament.

Trump continues to use ICE to load up planes with migrants (mainly illegal but not all) and send them to their fates – the latest lack of humanity was sending a deserter from the Russian Army to Moscow where he was arrested. They could have at least sent him to Kiev!

Congratulations to cosmetic compant LUSH. It closed its stores across the country in solidarity with Gaza – and before the fascists comment – and they stated that they would rather have provided food, but the Israelis would not allow it.

Is there nothing better for the papers to comment upon? Even the Guardian was at it again today – despite printing that she is unable to explain the details due to a court order! They all have a go as she is not paying council tax on her grace a favour apartment in Westminster – frankly I am appalled that she is asked to do so – Surely HM Government should pay as she is required to be in London so much. Her home in Ashton-under-Lyme has been put in a trust for her children who live there alternately with their father (Angela’s ex). This seems to be an admirable arrangement. So she only actually owns one property – so what is the fuss about? Oh – she is firstly a woman, secondly was an unmarried mum at 16, third she grew up on a council estate AND she has the termerity to become deputy Prime Minister! She is also on the left of the recently moved right wing Labour Party.

If only the press were as diligent is chasing millionaires for their money, even Farage for taking a pension from the EU and also a Parliamentary MP’s wage whilst being absent for much of the time.

Other news – The Greens have elected a new leader in Zac Polanski. Already the shit is being thrown – he was once a hypnotherapist who said he could increase womens breast size. I am sure the papers will capitalise on this, despite it being years ago. Shame he cannot do something to the balls of many journalists. However the Greens need to come out of the shadows and rattle some cages – BBC QT?

Kim Jon-un, V.Putin and Jinping Xi are meeting in Beijing. It makes sense for the 3 largest military powers in the East to meet (sorry India, it should be 3 of the 4!). China has a rapidly expanding navy so should we be worried? I guess that with Trump acting at random, there is a void in many areas. Israel must be sucking a lot of America’s military spending. He seems unaware of the saying by Spiderman “with power comes great responsibility”. Taiwan should be worried! Yes but also other nations with disputed territories/islands – like Vietnam, Japan, Malaysia, Taiwan, Philippines must also be aware of the potential threats.

In Europe Spain has said it will not meet Trumps demand for 5% of GNP to be spent on the military. Firstly how much of that expenditure would come to the USA? Secondly – in the 21st century it is very sad that we should spend so much to combat fear and medieval threats.

The flag shaggers are determined to make migrants unwelcome – whatever. Presumably many of the morons will attend Premier league football games and join in singing the praises of the players – of whom 70.1% are foreign born. The irony will not have occured to them. Nor that the NHS and education systems would collapse without migrants, The hospitality sector would be virtually non-existent. However none of this matters to the charlatans in the Reform and Tory Parties.They continue to sow the seeds of hatred and disharmony in our society for personal gratification. No longer are migrants simply people who have moved here from abroad, but now they are all potential rappists and sex offenders (Did this rhetoric begin with Trump ranting about migrants in the USA?).

The flag shaggers sing the National anthem loudly and without understanding the irony that the Royal Family are migrants. For several hundred years the rulers of England could not even speak English! Perhaps the greatest benefit that we can see/hear today is the English language itself, which has adopted as its own thousands of words from other languages. And then we have the food! Only 16% chose Fish and Chips as their favorite takeaway whilst another 13% claim not to indulge in takeaways). 25% chose Chinese with Indian second on 17%. And who has not had a spagbol recently or a chilli con carne, or a baguette.

So basically the anti-migrant bollox is just that – BOLLOX. Farage says he will send 5 planes a day of migrants home – and beware the knuckle draggers do not understand the difference between legal and illegal migrants – or between right and wrong, or have any sense of morality and justice.

Project pop of UK to be 48 million without migration and 86 million with, by 2100. Behind these statistics is another aspect. Most of Europe is in a similar situation so the 38 million migrants will not be white European or even from North America or Australasia. How will te knuckle draggers cope with that?

Aaron also stated this morning that the current generations would be the richest ever – in this country. Personally I do not see it! For those with parents who bought their properties 10 or more years ago, this is possibly true. But an ageing population = higher costs for NHS; private pensions will be mitigated by lower state ones. House prices will stabilise and probably fall if the population drops.

Personally I believe that a lower population would be good for the environment and consumption generally, but only if worldwide. It is likely that the UK and the west will continue to fuck the environment until it is totally shagged!

Also in the news was the High Court Judgement about asylum hotels – how the rich hate democracy and the rule of law. The domestic abusers have been out again complaining about asylum seekers breaking laws – hypocritical vindictave twats.
