Economic realism vs Geopolitcs: Alternative für Deutschland

 

Economic realism vs Geopolitcs

The options are pretty clear. Germany is a manufacturing country that has been losing jobs in manufacturing because German companies have been pushed out of Germany due to high energy costs.

It is also a country is which the vast majority of migrants live on benefits and produce very little or nothing for the German economy.

Understandably then lowering energy costs and throwing out unproductive foreigners that live at the expense of the German peoples are two major priorities. This is why Elon Musk stated that Alternative für Deutschland is the only German political party that can save Germany.

Buying things cheap somewhere else when jobs are vanishing in your own country is not a valid alternative.

High taxation is a requirement to finance people who are out of work. Therefore, the only alternative is to get rid of beggars and lower taxes to restore the strengths of the German economy. And a permanent flow of additional jobs is also a requirement for political and social stability.

The status quo is a non non. It is precisely the status quo has created the present mess.

At the end of the day, each country has different realities and overlooking differences leads to the wrong conclusions. There are also historical realities and each country is bound to react differently and have different priorities.

 

EU heats up: Olaf Scholz urgent travel to the Russian Federation

The announcement by Ukraine that it would halt vital supplies to the European Union prompted German Chancellor Olaf Scholz urgent trip to the Russian Federation.

Energy has been the key for the survival of the European Union and most importantly for the most important country of the European Union, the Federal Republic of Germany. Without energy, German manufacturing strength and support of its political system are in doubt. 

Germany faces a Federal Election in a few weeks time and the financial and industrial outcome is not brilliant. In the words of Alexander Gauland, co-founder of Alternative für Deutschland - the worse the situation becomes, the better for Alternative für Deutschland - and things are getting pretty bad. Ukraine is threatening the survival of the European Union. To make matters worse, an attack perpetrated today in Germany caused the death of several people and more than a 100 people were injured. It  does not play well in German politics when migration is one of the hottest topics.

As President Bill Clinton stated, 'it is the economy, stupid'. The German economy, its political stability, migration and geopolitical games are part of the same package.

The assertion that Alternative für Deutschland is the only political party that can save Germany did not go well with the usual culprits of the so called mainstream political parties that are used to win elections lying about those who challenge a disastrous status quo.

Angela Merkel started the debacle when she panicked and decided to get rid of nuclear power making Germany practically entirely dependent on foreign energy imports. The now former coalition headed by Olaf Scholz did the rest by associating itself with a warmongering movement that compromised vital energy supplies. No nuclear power, no oil, no gas. What could go wrong?

Olaf Scholz knows full well that energy shortages will be politically disastrous for so called mainstream political parties that do not protect fundamental German interests. Olaf Scholz knows in what could be the last days of his political career as German Chancellor that there are even greater risks that could lead to the disintegration of the European Union. There are conflicting interests within the European Union and this could well push countries to secede to follow their own paths. The promised Paradise looks increasingle like Hell on Earth.

Alternative for Germany - Is there an Alternative for Germany?

 

Is there an Alternative for Germany?

When the ruling SPD barely gets about 5% and his partners in the ruling coalition - Greens and FDP - get even less in state elections in Germany, something surely must change. Next stop? Brandenburg. If a disaster of the scale of what happened in Thuringen and Saxony also happens in Brandenburg then the ruling coalition must surely question its own future.

SPD and CDU quickly reacted proposing a ban on migration from two countries after lamentable events, but this did not seem to be enough to persuade voters to support the ruling coalition. In Thuringen, AfD got more votes than CDU and in Saxony the difference in favour of CDU was minimal compared to the level of support for AfD.

With Federal Elections around the corner, surely this is something to very much worry about. Geopolitical issues are dividing Germany, but internal issues seem to be equally divisive.

Immigration is being rejected by both sides of the political spectrum. A rising movement of the left is also anti-immigration.

The question is: have voters from both left and right of the political spectrum had enough of open borders? Let's remember that the official stance has been to punish Hungary for its reluctance to accept open borders. This beggars the question: are so called mainstream political parties out of tune? 

If they try to swim against the tide they will continue loosing support. SPD has even tried to ban Alternative für Deutchland. What will the argument in favour of banning Alternative für Deutschland? They got more than 30% of support and we got less than 6% and therefore we need to ban them because they are winning against us?

The Greens are the loudest party in favour of war in Europe. Do the Greens understand that their policies and stances are not supported by a vast number of German voters who have had enough of warmongers?

 

In 2008, Britain faced a gigantic crise and billions were 'invested' to save the financial sector

Native Americans have an expression: keeping an ear on the ground. This literally means keeping an year on the ground to hear galloping horses. Looking at the pages of The Guardian and at postings on Internet from well known Labour Party operators it is easy to see that all is not well on Planet Starmer.

No more taxes and no more Austerity? North of the border, in Scotland, the SNP has been collecting taxes by imposing taxes on property transactions. South of the border, in England, the Labour Party is planning to charge taxes on property transacttions. This means that property owners are going to get a lot less than they now get for selling their properties.

If a property is worth 1000 and property transactions are for 1000, then the selling amount minus the cost of the ititial acquisition will be taxed 40%. Sellers will have to recoup the 40% the government is planning to take away. Selling prices will rise or sales will come to a hault altogether.

If the idea is to lower the cost of housing, imposing a tax on transactions will push prices up or will stop sales thus compromising, once again, the financial sector. We know that the properties market is what keeps the British economy afloat. Paralizing the properties market will send the British economy in a downwards spiral.

If the financial sector is compromised, the state cannot rescue the financial sector and it would be meaningless to try to rescue the financial sector if the rules that promove the crise are not changed. 

So Keir Starmer stated that he is out to fight against what he calls 'far right extremists'. In fact, a gigantic financial crise will do exactly the opposite. 

Alexander Gauland, from Alternative für Deutschland wrote: Wie schlimm kann es Deutschland gehen? Wie viel können wir provozieren? Es sei demnach im Interesse der Partei, dass noch mehr Migranten nach Deutschland kommen, denn gann gehe es der AfD wesser. 

What applies to immigration in Germany, applies to financial crise in the United Kingdom. If in less than a year the Labour Party bankrupts the British economy, the malaise generated by a financial crise will motivate people to move in the opposite direction and support so called right wing policies. 

Since the act passed by David Cameron and Nick Clegg regarding fixed terms is no more, it is more than likely that Labour MPs will start moving against Keir Starmer and if Keir Starmer were to introduce rules that only allow MPs to select Prime Ministerial Candidates and prevent Labour Party members from voting then Keir Starmer will have yet another crise to contend with.

Let us remember that thanks to Jeremy Corbyn and many other MPs that either left the Labour Party or were thrown out of the Labour Party membership grew exponentially. Getting rid of voting rights for members could send Labour Party membership numbers downwards.

The situation will then be critical for both the Labour Party and the 'middle-ground Conservatives' and will be a net benefit for those to the left of the Labour Party and for those to the right of the Conservative Party. With meltdown in the middle, the extremes will gain millions of supporters.

Germany: Thuringen could set the tone of German politics

Germany: Thuringen could set the tone of German politics

Angela Merkel is now the Chancellor supported by a political party that doesn't have a leader after the leader she chose to succeed her (Annegret Kramp-Karrenbaeur) resigned saying that she doesn't have enough support in the CDU.

In Thuringen, the fraction of CDU chose to vote together with Alternative für Deutschland and now the CDU itself is in limbo having to choose between left and right.

After five elections - a Federal Election in which CDU/CSU and their then partners SPD suffered significant losses - and four state elections (Brandenburg, Bavaria, Hesse and Saxony in which Alternative für Deutschland and Grünen made important gains), have been followed by what happened in Thüringen that led to the resignation of the party leader.

Will CDU decide to side with Die Linke linked to the Communist Party of the former East Germany? Will CDU decide to side with Alternative für Deutschland? CDU has been caught between a rock and a hard place. If there was to be another Federal Election, what are the chances of a leaderless political party?  SPD has already announced that if Angela Merkel falls they will not enter into a new coalition.

And this happens when discussions about the new European Union budget are ongoing and the crisis generated by coronavirus in China could affect German trade with China and the future relationship with Britain is very much in doubt. Germany without stable governance is not a stable Germany and the more politically fragmented the more difficult it will be to take important decisions both at national and international level.

Germany: The victims are those called Far Right attacked by Left Wing Criminals

Germany: The victims are those called Far Right attacked by Left Wing Criminals

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r77mWSY4e0w

The Political Establishment and the mass media want you to believe that those called Far Right are monsters when in fact it is exactly the opposite. Left Wing Criminals are regularly attacking those called Far Right and destroying political headquarters of so called Far Right parties who are legal organisations taking part in the legal and democratic life in Germany.

The use of the words Nazi and Fascist is not news

The use of the words Nazi and Fascist is not news

|Anne Soubry MP

Much has been said about the fact that a demonstrator told Anne Subry MP 'you are a Nazi'. 

Anne Soubry should be comforted by the fact the Labour Party followers and representatives, Liberal Democratic Party followers and their representatives, Green Party members and their representatives, trade union members and their representatives, et cetera, et cetera, call members of the United Kingdom Independence Party and their representatives Nazi and Fascist.

In fact, they tend to call Nazi and Fascist anyone that they disagree with.

Non only that, those associated with the aforementioned have physically attacked those that they call Nazi and Fascist.

The UAF (official name United against Fascism) and that I call "United against Freedom" that many MPs fully support periodically engages in name calling exercises and hostile acts leading to violence and bodily harm.

The mass media eagerly cooperate in the demonising of political representatives including those linked to UKIP  but UKIP itself has been found wanting when, across the board, banned anybody who at one point in time was a member of other organisations also categorised as Nazi and Fascist.

Coming from Members of Parliament the over-reaction is nothing more than yet another example of sheer hypocrisy because the environment of hatred has been promoted by Members of Parliament who led to the name calling culture and discrimination against those they don't like or do not agree with.

In today's Britain, people who have been/were  members of certain legal political organisations are banned from employment in certain branches of public organisations and those who having been employed for a certain time are found to have been members of the said legal political organisations face the sack and not just from employment in the public sector. 

Not long ago, Richard Barnbrook, former Labour Party Member, who joined the British National Party and was elected London Assembly Member, was told by authorities of a well-known English University that despite his knowledge and credentials he was going to be rejected because of his political background.

Political discrimination exists in the United Kingdom and it has been deemed acceptable by Members of Parliament like Anne Soubry. Therefore, she should search her own conscience to see that she is just suffering the consequences of what Members of Parliament like herself have promoted.

Just hours ago, in Germany, a representative of Alternative für Deutschland was brutally attacked by a gang of the German equivalent of the UAF, and headquarters of Alternative für Deutschland have been the targets of politically motivated attacks. This is the direct consequence of intolerance promoted by so called mainstream political parties and politicians for whom the ends justify the means. They are eager to justify such attacks but then cry foul when they - the original perpetrators - are targeted.    

List of Members of Parliament and former Members of Parliament that were founding signatories of the United Against Fascism organisation: 

Ken Livingstone, Tony Benn, Peter Hain MP, David Hanson MP, Adam Price MP, Barbara Follett MP, Diane Abbott MP, John Cryer MP, John Trickett MP, Keith Vaz MP, Peter Bottomley MP, Alice Mahon MP, Alan Meale MP, Ian Gibson MP, Sir Teddy Taylor MP, Harry Cohen MP, Betty Williams MP, Ken Purchase MP, Laura Moffatt MP, Peter Bradley MP, Vera Baird MP, Bill Etherington MP, Edward Garnier MP, Roger Berry MP, Angela Smith MP, Brian Iddon MP, Anthony Steen MP, Mike Hancock MP, Colin Pickthall MP, Clive Betts MP, Janet Anderson MP, Neil Gerrard MP, Jane Griffiths MP, Brian Donohue MP, Helen Clark MP, Terry Davis MP, Janet Dean MP, Adrian Bailey MP, David Cameron MP, Louise Ellman MP, Eric Illsley MP, Kelvin Hopkins MP, Ernie Ross MP, Rob Marris MP, Martin Caton MP, Jim Sheridan MP, Martin Jones MP, Paul Tyler MP, Colin Challen MP, David Wright MP, Rudi Vis MP, Tony Worthington MP, Derek Watts MP, Julie Morgan MP, Rev W Martin Smyth MP, Diana Organ MP, Doug Henderson MP, Barry Gardiner MP

UKIP Membership Criteria

UKIP Membership Criteria

By applying for membership of UKIP, I agree:

• to abide by the UKIP Constitution and the Terms and Conditions of Membership 
• I am not and have not been a member of the British National Party, National Front, British Freedom Party, British People's Party, English Defence League, Britain First or the UK First Party.
• UKIP reserves the right to reject or terminate memberships if these criteria are not met.

How does this affect those who work for UKIP but are not members? It doesn't affect those who are not members. Tommy Robinson is a service provider and a service provider that provides an unpaid service and therefore he is not affected by membership criteria.

Nigel Farage spoke about UKIP led by Tommy Robinson. Well, this is not remotely possible under present membership criteria. In order to lead UKIP Tommy Robinson would have to become a member. This is something Tommy Robinson cannot do because it is expressly forbidden by present UKIP membership rules. Nigel Farage over-reacted and terminated his own membership. Nigel Farage effectively broke away from UKIP. 

One of UKIP's greatest weaknesses is Political Correctness. For a political party that came out to campaign against political correctness, UKIP has been manipulated by mass media to adopt membership criteria that other political parties - including so called mainstream political parties - do not have. Trying to be whiter than white, UKIP effectively excluded a massive number of voters that would have like to become members of UKIP and/or vote for UKIP. No rational individual would vote for a political party that doesn't want him/her to be a member. Therefore, whatever the present leader of UKIP wants or doesn't want to do, the fact remains that unless UKIP membership rules change the party would be shooting itself in the foot.

At one point, as leader, Niger Farage rejected any links with Front National and with Marine Le Pen. Curiously enough, Nigel Farage had a very visible presence at a gathering of Alternative für Deutschland. To this effect, consistency was absent. Front National (now Rassemblement National) is the second biggest political party in France. Alternative für Deutschland is the second biggest political party in Germany. They share a Nationalist agenda. How is the circle squared by Nigel Farage? It isn't squared. It cannot be squared. 

Nigel Farage criticises what he calls the 'anti-Muslim agenda'. What is the agenda of both Alternative für Deutschland and Front National about Islam? Once, again, Nigel Farage is not consistent in this regard when he associated himself with Alternative für Deutschland.

Women are at the Forefront of Nationalist Success

Women are at the Forefront of Nationalist Success

Alice Weidel

Why French Nationalism and German Nationalism are succeeding when British Nationalism is falling apart? 

The answer is very straightforward: because many who call themselves British Nationalists are just a bunch of idiots who live very much in their chauvinistic past having an approach to women's rights and women's roles that is not much different from the approach Islamic Extremists have when it comes to women's rights and women's roles. 

Many so called British Nationalists are stuck in a very backwards attitude towards women and this is one of the fundamental reasons that they fail, fail and fail all over again.

The Nationalist Movement in Britain needs women and most importantly it needs young supporters to be relevant and to stay relevant. Unfortunately, when the average age at any meeting is about 60, the number of women is few and far between and the young are almost literally absent, the Nationalist Movement in Britain is a dinosaur having its last breath.

Practically in every country there is a natural balance, an almost 50/50 ratio of men and women and it is irrational to pretend that any political movement can be successful when too many male followers want women 'to play their more traditional role'.

British Nationalism is critically fragmented with a vast array of groups whose leaders hate each other. They call themselves political parties when in fact whenever there is a rally you will find that people from different groups (political parties) are in attendance making up the numbers. They are hanging around in spite of the fact that if their identity and affiliation became visible they would not be able to join the groups/political parties they go out to support.

For example, when For Britain or UKIP organise a rally, you will find people from National Front, British National Party, British Democrats, English Democrats, EDL and others in attendance. They can be in attendance but they are not members nor will be knowingly allowed to become members of For Britain or UKIP. If found out, many of those who have joined in would be expelled. The whole situation is absolutely irrational and this happens on the one hand because of political correctness and on the other hand because there isn't a coherent political approach in terms of membership and in terms of a real political programme.

People from different political organisations might stand together on the streets to show that they are against something but they could hardly stand together as one political force because they differ regarding practically everything else. When you start asking those in attendance about specific issues you immediately see that the gesture of standing together and been seen standing together for the sake of numbers is just that. 

Without real leadership, there can be no such a thing as British Nationalism. But the vacuum created by lack of leadership becomes a very real threat. If there was a truly organised and coherent British Nationalist Movement, Britain would be safer. In more than one way, the British Establishment and the Mass Media have been promoting violence. If there had been a truly organised and coherent British Nationalist Movement, Jo Cox would still be alive. The practices of discrimination, political persecution, demonising, discrimination and exclusion promoted by the British Establishment and the mass media - in particular the BBC - promote violence. When people who have very legitimate views and very legitimate concerns are treated as terrorists, when people are disenfranchised, those with extremist views thrive.

Both Rassemblement National (National Rally) and Alternative für Deutschland are extremely relevant, coherent, consistent and purposeful organisations that exist for the common good. They are very valid alternatives within a Democratic Framework. Britain desperately needs the British version of Rassemblement National and Alternative für Deutschland at a time when so called mainstream political parties have become an absolute mess to the point that Democracy itself is in serious danger. When you vote Labour, what do you vote for? When you vote Conservative, what do you vote for? Now many Labour Parties are there? How many Conservative Parties are there? How can it be democratic to be asked to vote for candidates you don't know what they stand for?

For many Labour and Conservative voters, voting Labour and voting Conservative is a bit of a gamble. If you support Jeremy Corbyn but live in an area where a anti-Corbyn candidate is standing, do you vote for the said Labour candidate? If you support Jacob Rees-Mogg but live in an area where the Conservative candidate standing is against Jacob Rees-Mogg, do you vote Conservative? What we have got is not even a shadow of Democracy. Including the option 'None of the Above' on the ballot paper would be a sensible thing to do in spite of the danger that 'None of the Above' gets the highest number of votes. 

  

   

 

Brexit: EU is playing with fire

Brexit: EU is playing with fire

The European Union is being playing with the situation in Northern Ireland as a way for force the United Kingdom into submission but this has backfired as UK moves towards Direct Rule in Northern Ireland.

Yesterday in the House of Commons it became explicitly clear that the Good Friday Agreement is no more because Sinn Fein violated the terms of the agreement by walking away from the Northern Ireland Assembly and staying away from it for more than 500 days. This is one less thing to worry about and if Sinn Fein doesn't return there will be Direct Rule in Northern Ireland.

The other issue the EU has being playing with is what is known as 'Hard Border' between the Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland. The issue of the border between the Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland is not a problem for UK. If the EU and/or the Republic of Ireland want to pay for it they are free to do so.

Speculation about Jeremy Corbyn becoming Prime Minister has also being used to blackmail the UK government but Jeremy Corbyn could only get in if there is a General Election and in principle there is not going to be a General Election until 2022. Britain is a Parliamentary Democracy and Prime Ministers can come and go without the need of having a General Election.

Whatever happens in EU, everything revolves around Berlin. Angela Merkel has just had a scare when tensions led to a potential break up between CDU and CSU. In Bavaria, Alternative für Deutschland is advancing as CSU is retreating. Angela Merkel struggled to form a coalition just a few months ago when she failed to form such a coalition with FDP and Grünen and after great effort she managed to get a deal with SDP. But without CSU, a General Election would be practically a given with no hope of success.

One out of six German cars is exported to UK and tensions with US in what is seen as a trade war could make it very difficult for Germany to be able to export cars to US. Angela Merkel knows that she is walking on thin ice and this is why the latest developments in the United Kingdom regarding an agreement within the Conservative Party Cabinet didn't elicit any comments. EU heads chose to remain silent for fear of tilting the situation towards a No Deal that could badly damage German industries.

As time goes by, with the resignation of more members of the British Cabinet, Prime Minister Theresa's May situation becomes ever more precarious and a No Deal would be the end result. The EU is now seeing that trying to blackmail the UK government was a very serious mistake.

We cannot possibly foresee the outcome but it has been said that some of the conditions agreed at Checkers would make it impossible to have a Free Trade Deal with the US. If this is the case, the proposals would already be dead.

Former East Germany literally unrepresented in new German Coalition

East Germany unrepresented in German government

For East Germany literally unrepresented in new German Coalition (that might or might not be depening no how SPD members vote to approve or disapprove of the deal made by Angela Merkel and Martin Schulz.

Martin Schulz wanted to be the new Foreign Secretary (Secretary for Foreign Affairs) but he was rebuked by members of his own party already.

Alternative für Deutschland is particularly strong in Saxony as more and more Germans march against so called mainstream political parties that no longer represent them.

Changes are coming and it is just a matter of time for a new political party to take over the reins of power in Germany.

Snap Election in Germany?

German coalition talks in tatters as FDP walked away from negotiations

Angela Merkel who barely got 26% of the vote in the recent German elections was desperately trying to form a coalition with FDP and the Greens. Immigration and Energy Policies were her undoing. With the Social Democracts in no mood to be members of any coalition, Germany would be heading for yet another Federal Election.

Immigration is a contentious issue in Germany linked to National Security and Public Security and Angela Merkel has made a gigantic mess that led to Alternative für Deutschland entering the Bundestag with 90 seats.

But in reality, the Greens are the ones to blame by calling for a reduction in coal-generated power that could lead to job losses in the energy and manufacturing sector and by campaigning to keep the immigration floodgates open.

Will I receive another letter from Peter Tauber? Most probably not. The German President Frank-Walter Steinmeier could soon have to dissolve the current parliament to have new elections.

During the coalition talks the CDU and the CSU talked about immigration restrictions. I hope Austria, Poland, Hungary and Czech Republic take note of this and especially when EU under Angela Merkel's command took them to court trying to force them to accept more immigrants.

Frank Franz Nationaldemokratische Partei Deutschlands

Freedom and Sovereignty, two words that represent what those who love their countries value above all and these are the word of Nationaldemokratische Partei Deutschlands that the apparatchiks of the CDU, the coalition led by Angela Merkel want to ban.

Frank Franz is the antithesis of those the liberal elites want you to see as enemies of the state. NPD Leader Frank Franz represents a true young Germany, full of energy, ready to put an end to the brainwashing of many generations of Germany made to feel guilty for something they had nothing to do with.

And what is Angela Merkel doing? Well, she seems to have everything German. At an official ceremony, Angela Merkel even tried to put away a German flag.
What about economics? Well, the fruits of hard working German people are being given away to those who don't hesitate to attack German people on the streets. Women raped and people attacked with swords on public transport. Things have got so bad that even an Iranian immigrant went on the rampage because he himself is fed up of flood immigration.

Not long ago, Angela Merkel publicly stated that 'Multikulti ist tot (Multiculturalism is dead) and sent on to say that all those wanting to live in Germany must speak German language, but then she turns against those who campaign multiculturalism and say that those living in Germany must speak German language.

Because of Angela Merkel, Germany is no longer a safe place to live in. The time is long overdue for those like Frauke Petry of Alternative für Deutschland and Frank Franz of Nationaldemokratische Partei Deutschlands to take power in Germany for the sake of the German people. In the understanding that political parties that share fundamental views must not collide in election, in recent elections Frank Franz told NPD supporters to vote for Alternative für Deutschlands to make a difference.

Deutschland über alles.
