John Healey: if the money to support serving military personnel and their families was available, why no support was given until Reform appeared to be winning elections?

 

John Healey: if the money to support serving military personnel and their families was available, why no support was given until Reform appeared to be winning elections?

It is significative important to remark that just a few weeks ago there was massive austerity to the point the winter allowances for pensioners and welfare benefits were being cut, Now, after Reform won against Conservative and againts Labour, suddenly, out of the blue, there is money for everything.

So Rachel Reeves is willing to throw everything out of the Treasury to prevent Reform for winning elections. Sixteen times the Prime Minister mentioned Nigel Farage in a recent political gathering. Nigel Farage stated that he was happy to be living in the Prime Minister´s mind for free without having to pay rent.

Trust? What Trust? We have got a government that is willing to ruin Britain to keep itself in power. So, apparently, there was a budget gap left by the Conservatives. Well, a lot more than that has been spent or promised. More than 10 billion Pound for Mauritius, a very similar amount for Ukraine, 22 billion Pound for Ed Milliband Eco Projects, and now the promiss made by the Secretary for Defense that Britisn expenditure will rise exponentially to pay for defense? Where is the money coming from? From the 22 billion budget gap that Labour said that the Conservatives left behind. Ah, lets not forget billions of Pound promised for transport projects. 

Are you buying British debt bonds? Are you lending money to the British government? Are you afraid? I reckon you should be extremely afraid. One thing is to have to rescue the financial system. Another thing is to have enough money to rescue Britain which, as we know, would be something impossible to do given the size of the British economy.

Jeremy Corbyn doesn't want any deal

Jeremy Corbyn doesn't want any deal

The strategy is pretty simple: he wants to use Brexit to created enough instability in the belief that should there be a future election he will be able to win such election by destroying the Conservative Party.

The statement indicates that the Labour Party cares about Britain is the real and biggest lie. They don't give a damn about Britain. All they are doing is to try and score party political points keeping Britain hostage.

Margaret Beckett was pretty clear: she will not vote for any deal. This is Opposition for Opposition sake. She will not vote for a deal that benefits Britain. She will create as many obstacles as possible for the sake of ideological struggle.

This is not about Parliamentary rights. This is about using Parliament to keep Britain hostage of a foreign power. Even the head of the Supreme Court has been found out and exposed for what she really is and for what she is really trying to do. And what about John Major, the former Prime Minister. He is supporting the interests of a foreign investment company that pays his salary. He is not standing for Britain either.

The present situation is absolutely shambolic. But if Parliament forces the Prime Minister's hand the big loser will be the European Union. Do you fancy Nigel Farage as British EU Commissioner and every single action of the European Union vetoed by Britain? If the EU wants war, then let's have war.

Brexit: Johnson, Hunt or Farage?

















Having heard the three of them, I say that my first choice is Nigel Farage but since he cannot be Conservative Party Leader and Prime Minister then we are left with Boris Johnson and Jeremy Hunt. 

Jeremy Hunt is neither tea nor coffee. He doesn't have a leg to stand on. I feel he is the kind of Leader that chooses to be lead instead of leading and that he will succumb to both internal and external pressure.

Boris Johnson appears to be the strongest of the two but I feel he is a bit of a school boy trying to please everybody.

We need a gut cutter. We need the beast that will cut the troat of Parliament if there is the need to do so to implement Brexit for real.

If need be, the struggle will have to be taken to the streets.Just a few day ago, a group of guys set EU flags on fire using a blowtorch and went against a BBC crew standing on the green near the Houses of Parliament.

Turncoats need to be shown that when things really matter there are those ready to reach for the sword to send a clear message. We know where the BBC and other segments of mass media stand. They have actively promoted fear telling the public that if Britain becomes independent the world as we know it will come to an end. They care more about what the EU mandarins want and are willing to do their dirty work.

Rory Stewart: Deluded about pact with Brexit Party?

Rory Stewart: Deluded about pact with Brexit Party?

Rory Stewart
The  2019 local elections proved to be an absolute disaster for the Conservative Party that was punished for Theresa May's loss of public face. This was followed by the European Parliament Elections in which the Conservative Party was practically wiped out. As if this wasn't enough, in the Peterborough By Election, the Conservative Party was third behind the Brexit Party. The news that Rory Stewart contacted Nigel Farage to seek an agreement is the act of a desperate man that got barely 19 votes in the first round of the Conservative Party Leadership Election. Matt Hancock who got 20 votes walked away. But Rory Stewart went as a far as confirming that he is willing to destroy the Conservative Party following the path established by Philip Hammond. The fact that he was looking for a deal with the Brexit Party merely serves to confirm what Dominic Raab stated: If the Conservative Party doesn't deliver Brexit, the Conservative Party is finished.

Rumours that Boris Johnson could be confirmed even before two candidates are chosen to allow the Conservative Party Membership is given the opportunity to vote indicate that there is an awareness that should a leader be chosen that is not strong enough, not decisive enough, not enough of a believer in Brexit, this would be catastrophic for the Conservative Party. October 31st is the chosen date, the deadline. October 31st 2019 is the date to prove if the Conservative Party is a political force worth voting for. A new failure would not only condemn the new leader to a disgraceful departure. It would sink the Conservative Party. The Brexit Party is watching. Any hesitation in the Conservative Party will be a gigantic boost for the Brexit Party. Conservatives like Jacob Rees Mogg have spoken about including Nigel Farage in any future possible negotiation with the European Union.

In the meantime, in a desperate attempt to hold the Labour Party together, Jeremy Corbyn would be forced to offer a vote to Labour Party members so that any decision is not seen as Jeremy Corbyn's decision but as the Labour Party's decision. The Labour Party has already lost several Members of Parliament without an election being fought - Chuka Umunna joined the Lib Dems as Treasure and Business Spokesman. Not long ago, A high Profile Jewish MP resigned and accused the Labour Party of Anti-Semitism, accusation that was backed up by other Labour MPs who left to become independent. This happened after several MPs had become independent facing the certain danger of being deselected by their local constituencies.

Both Conservatives and Labour are in a state of flux. People are being asked who they will vote for if there was a General Election tomorrow. Lib Dems and Brexit Party come on top in terms of preferences. Some commentators who are politically aligned with the Labour Party have said that should Boris Johnson become leader the next step would be a general election but, perhaps, they are not taking into account the desperate state of both political parties and that in such general election the Conservative Party and the Labour Party risk coming third and fourth.

Confronting the possibility of Parliament being suspended to ensure that no one can prevent Brexit, Rory Stewart talked about using the Central Hall located not far from the Houses of Parliament to organise an alternative Parliament that would challenge the government but this looks very much like a political crisis of gigantic proportions not seen in Britain since the days of Oliver Cromwell and Charles I. Moreover, a motion put forward by the Labour Party aimed at preventing No Deal was defeated just days ago. 

On Tuesday, June 18th 2019, the Second Round in the Conservative Party Leadership Election will take place. There are six candidates left in the struggle. Remainers like Rory Stewart will have to have enough support to survive because facing a Conservative Party Membership vote with grassroots that are mainly for Leave.

A useless Parliament opens the door to a political revolution

A useless Parliament opens the door to a political revolution. Democracy is overdue for renewal. Without renewal there will be violence and we are already seeing the seeds of violence. Britain needs Democratic renewal to avoid bloodshed.

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

Lizzie Dearden: When ideology supersedes reporting

Lizzie Dearden: When ideology supersedes reporting

When newspapers' bosses ask themselves why the numbers of newspaper copies sold fell dramatically, they need to have a closer look at the trends of the articles that they print. One cannot fail to spot the fact that many writers like Lizzie Dearden seem to be ideologically driven and that therefore the copies that they produce and their reporting style is not about genuine reporting.They have a case to prove. 

Reporting about legal cases is not about reporting.It is about character assassination. This is pretty bad journalism. When I read a paper, I want real reporting. I want to hear all sides of a story and I want the said reporting to be focused on the case in hand. I don't want a novel in which the author is trying to prove that the person they are reporting about is a very bad person. In so doing, reporting is no longer reporting. It becomes purely and simply propaganda. The Independent was forced out of circulation because not enough copies were being sold to justify the costs of printing and distribution. Now, the The Independent is just an Internet concern.

It is a great idea to have a public forum where people can express their views freely and The Independent has had some success becoming the newspaper version of Facebook. Unfortunately, those in charge have made some mistakes along the way. Whether you want to report about Tommy Robinson or Brexit or whatever else, reporting should not be partisan. The Independent is clearly biased when it comes to reporting about Tommy Robinson and is officially partisan when reporting about Brexit since the paper launched a campaign against Brexit. Once again, when I am thinking about paying for a service, I will definitely be against paying for a service when instead of reporting I am going to get a pamphlet. From a commercial standpoint, a partisan organisation stands to lose money. 

People like Alexander Lebedev and Evgeny Lebedev have very high profiles but their actions seem to be at odds with what is published by The Independent. They reportedly have regular meetings with the Prime Minister and the Chancellor and have an ongoing relationship with Ruppert Murdoch , Nigel Farage and Liam Fox. Alexander Lebedev reportedly closed a newspaper because the said publication criticised Vladimir Putin, was in United Russia Party in support of President Putin and stated that Vladimir Putin is one thousand times more genius than Winston Churchill.

In the running of The Independent there seems to be a system in place, not much different from the systems applied by secret services when what you see is more often than not what they want you to see and not what is really happening. 
Whenever there is an opportunity to bash President Putin and the Russian Federation, Members of Parliament rise to the occasion to depict President Putin and the Russian Federation as evil. Not long ago, Britain expelled Russian diplomats and staff and denied a visa to Roman Abramovich and statements were made about countering Russian interference in British Affairs and we have a former member of the late  KGB and his son and - both supporters of President Putin - being members of the British political scene.
Very often the Houses of Parliament are a bit of a theatre where paid actors play a certain role in a certain play. Everything is not always what it seems. The Independent and its reports fit perfectly in that kind of political circus. The problem is that nowadays we need clarity. We don't need a circus nor a theatre. A digital publication that purports to be a newspaper should be a real newspaper and not a propaganda machine. 

Britain needs real journalism. BBC, SKY and others simply add to extraordinary levels of confusion, distortion and disinformation. Practically all publications and mass media have lost followers. If organisations like the BBC had to survive with their own means, the BBC would have gone the way of Woolworths, Maplin and other private companies. The call by the UKIP Independence Party to get rid of  the TV License sends a clear message but we know that without political power things will remain as they are.

Nigel Farage and Marine Le Pen: Breaking barriers

It looks like Nigel Farage has come to his senses and decided to break barriers by making the rational decision to come closer to Marine Le Pen.

At a time when Marine Le Pen, Geert Wilders, Frauke Petry and many others share a platform to challenge the status quo, it would be inconceivable that those who share aims and purposes could be divided or even working against each other.

We should look forward to the day when UKIP itself comes to its senses and stop peddling the lies and misconceptions of the so called mainstream political parties.
We look at membership policies of UKIP that incidentally coincide with discriminatory policies implemented against minority parties. As the main financial supporter of UKIP has his membership suspended and is looking forward to leave UKIP and create what is being called UKIP 2.0, the party should realise that it cannot complain about political exclusion when UKIP itself is implementing political exclusion.

Unless all Nationalists come under the same flag, there is no hope in hell of seeing a Nationalist Party taking the reins of politics in the United Kingdom and especially when some so called Nationalists like SNP and Plaid Cymru are seeking to divide the United Kingdom to become subjects of an increasingly centralised and despotic European Union.

Having done what he aimed to do, Nigel Farage resigned as UKIP Leader

For more than twenty years, Nigel Farage was a household name. His name is clearly identified with the aim of leaving the European Union.

Having achieved what he set out to do, Nigel Farage resigned as Leader of UKIP.

Now, it is the duty of Parliament to implement what the British Electorate decided on June 23rd, 2016.

Those marching on the streets claim that those who supported Leave are uneducated, ignorant, racists, bigots, xenophobes, et cetera. They don't have the capacity to understand that they are talking about more than 17 million people in Britain of which 1 million are in Scotland where 38% voted for Leave.

Now, this is the issue. The Referendum was not a Scottish Referendum. It wasn't an English Referendum, a Welsh Referendum or a Northern Irish Referendum. It was a United Kingdom Referendum and each vote carried the same weight. Therefore, those calling voters who supported Leave ignorant should look at the own knowledge of mathematics because 51.9% and one million votes difference is a sizeable majority in favour of Leave. What is more, with few exceptions the map of the United Kingdom was blue, the colour chose to represent the votes for Leave.

The proviso is that should Government and/or Parliament ignore the decision of the British Electorate, the matter will not be decided peacefully.

Daily Telegraph Columnist Catherine Gee wants Nigel Farage to be killed?

Only days after Jo Cox MP was murdered, a Daily Telegraph columnist, Catherine Gee, wrote the following on Twitter.

Talking about journalists behaving responsibly, this is not an example of responsibility. More of an example of incitement to murder.

I have written to the Daily Telegraph and sent a copy of her comments.

Ed Miliband wants to exclude Nigel Farage from election debates?

Nigel Farage should be excluded from TV election debates, says Ed Miliband

Labour leader calls for repeat of 2010 debates involving three main parties, saying: 'I am not that interested in Nigel Farage'.
 
 
The article published by The Guardian clearly shows the kind of Democracy in which we live when political parties are excluded from political debates. This is now new. Before 2012, during 2012 and after 2012, political parties have been excluded from political debates in the United Kingdom and this has been very much part of the role played by the BBC and by the so called Independent Mass Media that all play according to the same score.
 
The strategy is simple: if people only listen to the so called mainstream political parties, voters will not know what the other political parties really stand for and will continue supporting the same political crap represented by Lib Lab Con.
 
If we could organize a different political system in the United Kingdom that would include as votes the number of people who do not vote (about 60%) and if there could be a Non Vote Party the Non Vote Party would win the election.
 
People like Ed Miliband have degraded and devalued Democracy in the United Kingdom and somebody who talks about excluding people from Democratic Debates is not a Democrat.
 
Manipulated debates, manipulated mass media, excluded candidates and excluded political parties characterize elections in the United Kingdom.
