Britain/Palestine/Israel: Murder campaign continues and protesters are being repressed

Britain/Palestine/Israel: Murder campaign continues and protesters are being repressed

Britain used to be part of the so called Free World. Not anymore. While the images of people being murdered as they try to reach for food continue to spread across the world, British authorites influenced by those we cannot criticize increase repressive measures. Now, protesting againts mass murder is classified as terrorism. Sooner than later there are going to be extremely serious consequences in Britain itself.

Dame Stella Rimington stated in the Houses of Parliament that the then Security Services did not have the necessary manpower to follow every lead. Today, in fact, no matter how many repressive measures are implemented to prevent people from protesting there will come the time when protests will become explossive and so widespread that British authorities will have created a lethal National Security crisis.

As trust in British authorities is going downhill, what we see saw some years ago after an incident inTottenham will be nothing compared to what is coming. As some Conservative comentators indicated, Civil War in Britain is just a matter of time. Poverty, discontent, sheer hatred, spreading criminality and lack of trust are a highly flammable mix.

England is starting to look like Northern Ireland and the rise of an English Republican Army is not inconceivable. Most elected representatives are like the French Aristocrats shortly before July 14th 1989. Those in privileged positions ignore the dangers that exist in feudal Britain. Politicans talk about numbers and "savings" with complete disregard for the desperate circumstances a growing number of peoples in Britain face. If this was not enough, they are standing for mass murder and in favour of repressing and silencing those who understandably stand against mass murder.

Is there a redrawing of the political world in the United Kingdom?

Is there a redrawing of the political world in the United Kingdom?

It is plainly visible that the Conservative Party and the Labour Party are no longer that they used to be. In many areas inside the United Kingdom, the two party system has literally collapsed. New political parties have arrived and others are being created because of the partition of existing political parties.

The Labour Party was created because of the Trade Union Movement and now the Labour Party is on a collision course with the Trade Union Movement.

A political migration movement is accelerating. Trying to accommodate a plurality of views, often contradictory, has lead to ambiguities and frustration and lack of trust in big political organisations and, perhaps, the day for Britain to abandon the two party system is long overdue, opening the door to coalitions of smaller parties that better reflect in Parliament the views of individual voters.

Demographics influences, more and more, political life in the United Kingdom, and this is happening especially because of geopolitical issues. In more than one way, the existence of coalitions instead of big political parties is a healthier option, limiting the power of lobbies.

From a geopolitical perspective, no political party on its own would be able to drive the country in a given direction, without the support of a bigger number of voters, thus preventing any military adventures or the start of conflicts based on false premises. There would be greater accountability.

Rachel Reeves and the 5% for Defence expenditure

 

Having seen what we have seen until now when it comes to monies and politics, can you trust the British Prime Minister and his promises about Defence?

I asked and asked again. Can we trust statements made at the latest NATO gathering? Political speeches and posturing do not pay for massive investments and massive borrowing and massive borrowing is already an issue when Britain´s credit rating is at stake. If things become any worse and interest paid on public debt keeps going up, how long before we head for a financial crash?

Any reforms are now compromised for the duration of the present administration and strikes are just beginning. How long will Rachel Reeves be able to keep the boat afloat? There are three ways to get resources and each has a price. We can raise taxes. We can borrow. We can reduce services. For each of the three there is a political cost to pay. Raising taxes can be popular with the left of the Labour Party, but deeply unpopular for the business community and, ultimately, will lead to higher prices of utilities and goods. Borrowing will lean to higher interest paid for public debt. Cutting services will not be popular with members of the public. None of them will be a vote winner in the present environment. 

But what that means for British standing? How reliable can a country that cannot pay its debts be? If one of the core members of NATO cannot afford to deliver what it promises, what does it say about NATO itself?

Labour: Rachel Reeves in tears as the marriage might not last long

 

It is usually said that an image speaks a thousand words. The image of the Chancellor of the Exchequer in tears tells the story of a marriage that might not last long.

If Rachel Reeves goes, the honeymoon is over. The marriage is under enormous stress barely one year after the May 2024 General Election. The knives are being sharpened. Despite the fact that Angela Rayner stated on television that "she has no intention to replace Keir Starmer", a rebellion of not less than 128 MPs is no mean business. Moreover, many of those now standing as Independent used to be Labour Party MPs.

Things are more serious than they actually look. Several Muslim MPs now standing as Independents used to be Labour Party MPs. This means than sooner than later we are going to see a new political party defined along religious and ethnic lines. Ethnic voters are turning against the Labour Party. Blacks and Asians no longer see the Labour Party as their natural home. Actions taken by the official Labour Party in matters concerning geopolitics are not very popular. Ethnic voters have no reason to swear allegiance to a white Metropolitan Labour Party that leans in favour of Israel, despite what amounts to genocide and mass murder.

Going against the vulnerable and supporting violations of basic human rights, the present Labour government is digging its own grave.
