German Coalition: Vote of Confidence due to take place in January will actually take place on December 16th 2024

 

The days of Olaf Scholz as German Chancellor could be numbered. 

The vote originally planned for January 2025 is due to take place on December 16th, 2024 and the Federal Election will actually take place in February.

This can change quite a lot in German politics at a time when urgent measures are needed to sort out German economics.

Germany was remarklably absent from a top meeting about the Environment. The German government has more pressing concerns when the Green Party barely has a calculated 10 per cent support across Germany and in three state elections only managed to get 7 representatives elected out of 120 in Saxony and none in Thuringen and none in Brandenburg.

As part of a deal to get a coalition together, hawkish Annalena Baerbock got chosen as Minister for Foreign Affairs. The fact that she could be on her way out within weeks would be a step forward towards peace in Europe.But the outcome of the Federal Election will tell the story and possibly write a new script.

The outsted Finance Minister Christian Lindner wanted to stop sending money to Ukraine by sending Taurus missiles instead. To have a member of FDP, a Junior member of the coalition, dictating foreign policy would have been a serious error of judgment. Olaf Scholz was asking to change rules to allow more borrowing. Christian Lindner refused to change the rules abour borrowing and decided to blackmail the German Chancellor to force him to adopt an idea he is very much against because of the dangerous implications of having Germany as the initiator of a European-wide conflict. FDP has no foot to stand on.

But money is in short supply and recent announcements about major German industrial players talking about factory closures and lays offs does not help. Energy and migration are bound to become even more important subjects. Increasing the Defense Budget? Where are the monies going to come from? NATO quotas could simply be unreachable. Listening to individuals like Ursula von der Layen or Emmanuel Macron might make somebody think that there are resources aplenty. Well, no. France is running huge deficits and Germany faces borrowing limitations. Any monies sent Eastwards come from borrowing. Will Germany and France - like Britain - go for tax rises? What effect would tax rises produce when unemployment is rising? What political effects will rising unemployment produce?

 

Austria: Now it is Freedom Party's turn with about 30% of the vote

 

So called mainstream politicians and political parties keep their heads buried in the sand and plough ahead with policies that ordinary voters reject, to the point of lying to voters to win elections.

One typical example is the talk about migration. People are increasingly fed up with what they call an invasion and when so called maintream politicians don't listen then they vote for political parties like the Freedom Party of Austria.

This is the natural consequence because more and more people no longer trust mainstream political parties that want to continue flooding Europe with migrants and want to fight a European War. Who are the warmongers? A typical example is the Green Party in Germany. The Green Party is bent on engaging Europe in Nuclear War, not that nuclear war will benefit the environment. Anyone who opposes warmongering ends up being called a Fascist or a Traitor.

The Freedom Party stands againt migrantion and the Freedom Party is against War. Therefore, it does not surprise that policians and mass media that have prostituted themselves to promote criminal wars immediately went on the offensive attacking those who are against war.

Humza Yousaf: an earthquake in Scottish politics and UK politics

 

Humsa Yousaf: an earthquake in Scottish politics and UK politics

From Alex Salmond, through Nicola Sturgeon to Humza Yousaf, the SNP was a different SNP every step of the way. The surge of the Alba Party was part of this voyage.

Practically from the very beginning, Alex Salmond was telling us that Scotland could be independent and self-financing with Scottish oil and gas resources. That was his fighting card. 

The arrival of Nicola Sturgeon (and of her husband now facing fraud charges) made people believe that Nicola Sturgeon could get things done and she was the darling of the mass media until her fall that some say was motivated by pressures related to a fraud investigation. She also made the ill fated decision to have a coalition with the Green Party that brought in very unsavoury policies in terms of energy and of gender politics, something that was questioned outright by Scottish voters that started to turn their backs on the SNP.

Events outside the United Kingdom and markedly the crisis in the Middle East had a negative impact, once again, because the ethnicity and religion card has been played over and over again. The Zionist Movement could not possibly accept a Muslim leader, critical of events in the Middle East. So the fall of Humza Yousaf has been caused by a cocktail of reasons and the choice of a new leader will tells in which direction Scotland is moving and in which direction British politics is moving with Muslim increasingly disenchanted that do not trust that there is a valid expression of their views and needs in British politics.

There are already signs that in the future British politics will be about ethnic politics and very little about real British needs. Angela Merkel, speaking about Germany, publicly said 'Multikulti ist tot' (Multiculturalism is dead). The same will now apply to British politics. 

Scotland: Was associating itself directly with the Independence Movement a faux pas?

 

Was the fact that the Independence Movement was directly linked to the SNP a serious mistake?

The Scottish National Party and its newly adopted leader and successor of Nicola Sturgeon are in deep waters. Their management of Scotland has left a lot to be desired and has somehow come to be seen as what would happen to Scotland if Scotland were to become independent. Management of health and education - to name two vital sectors of any economy - has been an unmitigated disaster. The association of SNP with the Greens as a way to remain in power has led to disastrous policy making as a way to keep the coalition going.

Long gone are the days when Alex Salmond, the most successful Scottish National Party Leader, used to tell everybody that Scottish oil resources would ensure a strong Scottish economy that would be independent from the rest of the United Kingdom. In a move to remain Socialists without being attached to what they called the English Labour Party, the Scots gave preeminence to the Scottish Green Party and Net Zero did the rest to undermine what had been until a more or less credible stance. 

The poison chalice for Nicola Sturgeon as Leader was on the surface her stance on Gender Politics and suddenly, she was stricken by a series of scandals around financial impropriety. Her way out - and her resignation as Leader was planned as a way to avoid a major crisis that could have sunk the SNP even lower - was designed as a way to disappear. No sooner she was out as leader, a political storm was unleashed.

Humza Yousaf was chosen as scapegoat. He was supposed to be Nicola Sturgeon's heir apparent. He did not inherit her power. She threw him to the wolves and now he faces the inevitable. If his first time as leader is to lose to the Labour Party opening the way back for Labour into Scottish politics, will he survive? The Scottish National Party is extremely factional. In fact, the SNP has been at war with itself not just in Scotland, but most visibly in Westminster.

The SNP should have seen that by closely associating itself with the Independence Movement all it has done is to push backwards the Independence project. The Scottish people have just realised that when it comes to health, education and the economy in general the SNP has not delivered and it cannot deliver precisely because of its close association with the Scottish Green Party.

You cannot base your calculations on fossil fuel energy while at the same time talk about getting rid of fossil fuels. It makes no sense. I can't possibly make sense. If anything, it has increased economic dependency. The point might come when Devolution itself will be questioned.  

 

An inconvenient truth: you can’t sell the green revolution to people who can’t afford it - Gaby Hinsliff

Even in the Labour Party some people are starting to realize the foolishness of Net Zero. As Gaby Hinsliff writes on The Guardian, 'an inconvenient truth: you can't sell the green revolution to people who can't afford it.'

The reality is that transport links in the United Kingdom are very poor. If you go out of the main urban areas, or even inside urban areas, the provision of public transpor is notoriously insufficient. Therefore, penalizing people for using cars or preventing people from using cars is madness.

Local authorities are using so called green policies to extract money that is in effect an increase in Council Tax. If you have to pay Congestion Charge and ULEZ, pay for parking and parking permits, you are in effect paying additional Council Tax because of the proceedings will end up in the hands of local authorities. 

Nobody has even calculated the impact of such taxes on the local economy in ways that will affect more those who have less. This wave of taxations has been promoted by the Labour Party, the Liberal Democrats, the Greens and by all the do-gooders that want to make good with somebody else's money. And what would will be done when local economies collapse under the burden of taxation and people are forced out of work?

You can't sell the green revolutoin to people who can't afford it. This is something that Keir Starmer and all other proponents of Net Zero and the upper class weirdoes that go around making a nuisance of themselves should be thinking about.

Rishi Sunak must be in UK: With no financial resources there cannot be a consistent environmental policy

 

The matters of government to deal with the energy crisis are more important than attending a talking shop and posing for pictures.

No sooner than Rishi Sunak was appointed Prime Minister, the usual culprits accused the Prime Minister for not attending an international gathering. Well, there are more urgent priorities to deal with at home to prevent a catastrophe.

At this very minute, 350,000 NHS staff are being balloted for strike. Why does Labour and others think that this is about? The strike if it happens should take place sometime in November so the authorities have some time to articulate a consistent response. Where should the Prime Minister be? At some talking shop about the environment or dealing with the National Health Service? No country can deal with environment when its economy is in a dangerous situation and therefore the priority is to deal with the economy now.

Regarding energy, the Green Party might celebrate the fact the Rishi Sunak has once again ban fracking, but funnily enough the Green Party has no immediate solutions to solve the energy crisis that is affecting Britain and coincidentally is the source of a financial, social and political crisis also on the Continent. It can take 40 years to build some of the alternatives and we need energy now. One way or another we are going to depend on fossil fuels because we need fossil fuels to build the alternatives proposed. Wind turbines are not made with wind power and nuclear plants are not made with wind power. The amounts of energy needed vastly surpass any amount of energy that can be produced with wind power. Electric vehicles are build with energy produced with fossil fuels.

Poland might enjoy the pleasures of 17th Century life-styles without electricity in the very near future, but do we want that in Britain in 2022. The possibility of having to deal with blackouts is very real. Can we have a digital economy with blackouts? Will lack of lighting make our lives better and safer? When our cities are plunged into the dark, it will be Christmas time for all kinds of criminals wanting to operate with impunity. 

Scarborough and many other coastal towns succeed with tourism or struggle without tourism

 

Fair weather that encourages people to go out and enjoy what Britain has to offer is not the rule, but the exception. Scarborough like many other coastal towns depend very much on the flow of tourism.

While the mass media and politicians seem to be focused on international travel, lets remind them that there is a country called United Kingdom and that millions of peoples depend on seasonal economies.

Would I want to travel across Britain and get to know Britain? You bet that I would like to see every corner of Britain, but when you look at the cost of public transport (public transport that is subsidized by taxpayers) you understand that for a huge number of Britons travelling across their own country is an impossibility. Whether it is Labour, Conservative, Liberal Democrat they have had decades in power to ensure the dream of being able to see Britain becomes a reality and they had done very little or nothing to make such dream a reality. They are too busy talking shit about each other and getting involved in campaigns against Britain and against British interests. They are supposed to represent Britain and to stand  up for Britain and they go around undermining Britain and thaks to mass media manipulation and indoctrination many of the culprits keep getting elected. Elected to do what? Promises about a Socialist Paradise that has never existed and will never exist and talk about Value for Money that is translated as Value for Rubbish have destroyed hopes and aspirations for decades if not centuries.

The worst enemy of Britain is  not the Russian Federation nor China nor AlQaeda or Taliban or any other external foe. The worst enemy of Britain are politicians that completely ignore the needs of Britain and walk around promoting their own agendas that have nothing to do with British interests.

Politics in Britain is an absolute shambles. As an example, one of the leaders of the Green Party just resigned 'because she did not agree with her own party policies on transgender issues'. You will struggle to find the link between saving the planet and the sexual agenda. It seems that for the said leader of the Green Party sexuality is more relevant that efforts made to protect the environment.

Climate: Some tribes still believe that dancing produces rain

Climate: Some tribes still believe that dancing produces rain

Climate phenomena are part of the normal evolution of Planet Earth.

Climate has been constantly changing as land masses change and keep moving and there is little we can do to alter this process of change. At the beginning, it is said that there was only one land mass called Pangaea and that Pangaea broke down into several pieces evolving towards what we have got today as continents. Climate evolved non stop. To say that Climate changes because of Man is an absurdity promoted by individuals that should know better. Earth's position around the Sun has changed. The Solar System's position in what we call the Universe has changed. Change is a constant in the lives of Stellar Systems and therefore we have to expect more changes in the future and some more dramatic than others. Most probably the time will when Earth will be like Planet Mars. Whether Humanity has the technology that will enable it to move to another Planets it remain to be seen but this vastly exceeds our own life time and as Humanity also evolves our descendants might end up being quite different from us.

As Antoine de Lavoisier stated: Nothing is created, nothing is destroyed. Everything is transformed. Change is a constant and we better accept it. This is the message to the Environmentalists. You are not going to prevent changes by over-charging for services i.e. taxes on air travel. Taxing people with the pretext of doing it to prevent climate change is like the actions of Native Americans jumping around and shouting to make rain fall. It is absolutely nonsensical.

Mass Murder in Manchester: 22 dead and more than 50 people injured

Mass Murder in Manchester: 22 dead and more than 50 people injured

Cobra meetings and political correctness will not stop killings that are now happening with terrifying regularity in the United Kingdom and elsewhere. Just a few ago, it was Westminster, in Central London. Today, now it is Manchester's turn.

Katie Hopkins was reported to Police for asking for a 'final solution' but a solution to put an end to the series of killings is exactly what we need. Our lives have been turned upside down by religiously motivated violence and all the politically correct mass media and the politically correct establishment do is to continue to appease the followers of a cult that is causing mayhem across Europe. Entire areas of European cities are being turned into no go areas where people live in fear of attack perpetrated by extremists.

The paradox is that those who raised the alarm about the danger posed by religious extremists are themselves attacked for raising the alert. People like Tommy Robinson (former leader of the English Defence League), Paul Golding (leader of Britain First) and Nick Griffin (former leader of the British National Party) have been constantly and systematically attacked the political establishment and the mass for talking about the threat posed by religious extremists.

There are bans being implement against people who have committed no crime and whose only guilt is to have belonged to organisations that speak about the dangers of religious extremism.

Simon Hughes is openly bisexual but Tim Farron constantly struggles with sexual issues

Tim Farron constantly struggles when asked about issues regarding sexuality.

Once again the Liberal Democrats struggles to give a straight answer. He struggled before when asked about homosexuality. Now, he struggles when asked about abortion.

Simon Hughes publicly stated that he is bisexual. I would like to have Tim Farron and Simon Hughes together, in front of television cameras, and ask a whole range of questions about sexuality.

This man has serious issues to answer for. As Liberal Democrats Leader he should be able to give straight answers about sexuality as his inability to provide straight answers on this issues increasingly looks like a very serious personality flaw.

Other political leaders have been very clear about where they stand on the said issues and have prominent representatives that are openly homosexual or bisexual that had stood in the House of Commons. Tim Farron is letting himself down and is letting his political party down by not providing clear cut answers.

Most politicians don't have a clue about money

Most politicians don't have a clue about money. They promise hundreds of thousands of new homes and all kinds of benefits but they don't know how they are going to pay for it.

Dianne Abbot is not alone. How many Police officers? How are you going to pay for them? Quite a few promises but not the knowledge or the ability to reply.

We have 650 Members of Parliament. How many of them are actually fit for purpose? Tuition Fees anyone? Nick Clegg and the Liberal Democrats made promises about Tuition Fees and they didn't actually deliver. But they are not alone in this kind of habit. The Green Party makes promises about this and about that. Well, the Green Party can promise whatever because they absolute know that they will not have to deliver. They can fool those who vote for the Green on the ticket of Saving the Planet.

We call it Democracy. Democracy? So paying for more than 800 Members of the House of Lords is Democracy? Paying for ignorant idiots who use the words Racist and Anti-Semite to stop having a real debate is a complete waste of money, time and space.

What the so called Remainers are angry about is that they stand to lose all the privileges that they get for doing absolutely nothing. Year on year, the United Kingdom has been sending truckloads of money to support a useless bureaucracy called European Union.

Why did the British people vote to Leave? Because they don't want to be robbed both in the United Kingdom and in the European Union. For more than forty years, the United Kingdom has been milked by parasites and the parasites are angry because a growing number of people who are aware of their deeds don't want to continue supporting their lifestyles.

The issue about Elections in the United Kingdom is not only about First Past the Post and Proportional Representation. We need to take control of British politics. Do we need more than 800 Lords and 650 Members of Parliament? What about regional assemblies? What about local and regional authorities? Where is the expertise that justifies the election of individuals that don't have a club about what they are doing or promising to do?

Democracy has been degraded by the very same people who are supposed to defend Democracy. It will come the day when the very existence of Democracy will be questioned.
