Johnson Vs Sunak: The big loser is the Conservative Party

 

Rishi Sunak has played right into the hands of the Opposition by using a Committee headed by none other than Harriet Harman. Now, who is Harriet Harman? The MP standing for Peckham was so unpopular in her own political party that when she was on the list to appoint the next Speaker of the House, she could practically count on her vote only. Harriet Harman publicly declared that she was out to get Boris Johnson and Rishi Sunak and Conservative MPs that made up the special committee played along. This is the state of Conservative Party that is now facing at least three by-elections in a row, that recently lost thousands of Councillos in local elections and that faces the propect of losing most if not all the seat that were won when Boris Johnson was at the helm of the Conservative Party. It was Boris Johnson's political dexterity that led thousands of Labour voters in the so called Red Wall to trust the Conservative Party. Now, Rishi Sunak has committed harakiri by getting rid of the man that gave the Conservative Party an 80 seat majority. Before Boris Johnson, Theresa May managed to lose a Conservative majority by calling an election that was an utter disaster for the Conservative Party. Theresa May's ill adviced election call was what allow John Bercow as Speaker of the House Commons to manipulate the democratic system to the point that even the unelected Judiciary had a say in the democratic process. John Bercow was later publicly exposed as a bully and was not even allowed to enter the Houses of Parliament.

What happens next? Well, Labour voters who trusted the Conservative Party because of Boris Johnson might not be around a second time. Conservative voters completely disenfranchised could vote for other political parties or abstain - whether they vote for other political parties or abstain matters very little. What matters is that they will not be supporting the Conservative Party. And the next question is: is the present Conservative Party a Conservative Party? The Conservative leadership under Rishi Sunak has not told members of the public that no new legislation is needed to prevent illegal migration. In fact, the legislation already exists and has international recognition, but the present administration does not want to implement it. If present legislation were used, no Rwanda schemes and no ship schemes would be necessary. Instead, cranky schemes after cranky schemes are abandoned at huge cost for British taxpayers and migration levels keep rising unabated. If your local economy has been ruined by illegal migration under a Conservative administration, would you still vote to have more of the same?

Smaller political parties that before used not to put forward candidates because they did not want to divide the vote are not going to be abstaining. They are going to stand up even if this means ensuring the demise of the Conservative Party because they say that what is shown on the label is not what is in the bottle that they have been offered.

Now, let's compare the two men's credentials. Boris Johnson was chosen by the electorate and by members of the Conservative Party. Rishi Sunak was not chosen by the electorate and he actually managed to lose internally because Conservative members chose Liz Truss instead. Apart from the election that allowed him to become a Member of Parliament, Rishi Sunak has not won any election and, even more, Rishi Sunak was not chosen by Conservative Party members. 

Boris Johnson not only won elections to become a Member of Parliament and Conservative Party Leader. Boris Johnson has a history of winning elections including elections to become London Mayor. Being a successful businessman does not make you a good politician. Boris Johnson has the political acumen that the Conservative Party failed to have this year when local elections were fought and lost, and acumen that is not going to be around at the General Election and at the local elections including the London Elections in 2024.

The next General Election is due to take place on May 2nd, 2024. In previous elections, the Conservative Party was wiped out in Wales and in Scotland and this time England will follow. And what will happen to investors' trust? What will happen to economic recovery? Britain could be on her way to become a gigantic Slough Authority under the rule of a political party that promises one thing on Monday only to change its mind the day after. Tuition fees or no tuition fees? Green plans or no Green plans? They promise something because it sounds nice and popular, without making the sums to know if they can deliver or not what they are promising.

Is this the future of UK/USA relationship?

Is this the future of UK/USA relationship?

Jeremy Corbyn vs Donald Trump

















The way things are going, this could be a real possibility. For the Leader of Her Majesty's Opposition to boycott the visit of the President of the United States of America is a very serious matter. Direct attacks like the ones launched by Emily Thornberry against President Trump and none other than the Speaker of the House of Commons John Bercow is no laughing matter. We are talking about very serious issues involved the North Atlantic Treaty Organisation and the emphasis on foreign policy.

This is not merely an issue of liking or not liking President Donald Trump. This is about the British Nuclear Deterrent and the whole Defence Strategy in Europe. One has to think that Emmanuel Macron's rush to lead the way towards the establishment of EU Armed Forces and an Independent EU Foreign Policy has a lot to do with the concerns generated by Jeremy Corbyn's ideological stances.

While the attention is focused on Brexit, President Trump's visit to the United Kingdom is undoubtedly about reassurances regarding Britain's position facing the possibility of Jeremy Corbyn becoming Prime Minister. It is expected that a new Conservative Prime Minister will be in place by mid-year and a clear cut solution will be found to prevent the rise of Jeremy Corbyn. 

The Labour Party's Leadership is again under fire and the rise of both the Lib Dems on the Remain side and of the Brexit Party on the Leave side must have given some hope to the American Administration. President Trump has used warm words to describe his rapport with Boris Johnson as a potential Prime Minister and with Nigel Farage as Leader of the Brexit Party. 

Alastair Campbell has expressed the view that without a clear definition the Labour Party would be doomed in a General Election. Much has been said about Chancellor Philip Hammond talking about bringing down the Conservative government in case of No Deal but do those oppose to Jeremy Corbyn really want the Labour Party to win knowing that Jeremy Corbyn would be the next Primer Minister.

A very advantageous Trade Agreement between the USA and Britain would favour a No Deal option and could prevent the rise of Jeremy Corbyn. A No Confidence Vote against the Conservative government would be a geopolitical disaster.

United Kingdom: Left-Wing thugs go on the rampage and where there is action there is going to be reaction

Whatever your views about UKIP or any other political party or personality, attacks, harassment, intimidation and persecution are criminal activities. Those who go around engaging in criminal activities will find themselves facing the wrong end of a gun.

The Political Establishment and the Mass Media are all too ready to launch attacks against those who do not fit in with their political agenda. Mass Media reporting is extremely biased and constantly misrepresents those that they don't like.

What happened to UKIP activists in Leicester, England, United Kingdom is not new. It has been happening on a regular basis and is promoted by certain mass media including some BBC operators that are part of a network of organisations.

After each Tommy Robinson's rally, you will find camera crews and photographers ready to capture any actions that they would later depict under the headline 'Far Right Thugs engage in Violence'.

Police Crews are placed strategically to video and photograph those attending rallies and Police crews are briefed in a very negative manner about the people that they are going to find during rallies. They are mentally programmed to react in a negative manner against people whose sole crime is to take part in a peaceful demonstration.

Those who report about the Storm Troopers of the 1930s conveniently fail to remember that there were so called Red Brigades that were always looking for a fight. The Storm Troopers and the Red Brigades existed because of the actions of those acting like the Political Establishment and the Mass Media are acting today.

When Jo Cox MP was killed, we heard choirs of expressions of grief inside and outside Parliament of those who condemned political violence. Paradoxically, when violence is exerted against another side of the political spectrum they are very willing to justify attacks against UKIP and other political organisations.

More than once individuals like Nigel Farage, Tommy Robinson and others have been targeted because of the messages of hatred spread by the Political Establishment and the mass media including the British Broadcasting Corporation. Listening to John Bercow as Speaker of the House of Commons and to other Members of Parliament you realise that there is a hatred campaign promoted from the very top.

This is not just about Hope Not Hate or the UAF that I renamed Hate Not Hope and United Against Freedom whose followers I have seen attacking political opponents using balaclavas and baseball bats.

Unless attitudes change and violence of all political colours is publicly rejected, unless the Political Establishment, the Mass Media and para political organisations do realise that there is going to be a boomerang effect, we are going to reach a point in which the political environment will be completely out of control and action will be followed by reaction.

Far too many British journalists have an agenda and very seldom offer a true account of what is actually happening


Whether it is the BBC, Sky News or other interested mass media, the fact is that far too many British journalists have an agenda and very seldom offer a true account of what is actually happening. Ezra Levant, a Canadian journalist was in London to witness and to report about what is really happening regarding the legal process against Tommy Robinson. Let's be clear. This is not about justice. It is about persecution of an individual that continues to talk about a developing scandalous series of events involving Muslim communities in the United Kingdom and the way some of their members are behaving engaging in gang rape, paedophilia, drug trafficking and various others criminal activities.

Coming from Muslims, gang rape, paedophilia and drug trafficking are not merely ordinary crimes. They are linked to the declared aims of a terrorist ideology that preaches violence against non Muslims. For a very long time, figures of the political establishment and especially from the Labour Party and the Police went to great lengths to hide what was happening across several British cities. Those who raised the alert were labelled 'Racist, Nazi, Fascist, Xenophobe, Islamophobe'. The British Broadcasting Corporation that itself was trying to hide sexual crimes by people that the BBC employed as 'celebrities' had no interest in talking about crimes committed by Muslims because they didn't fit in the ideological rhetoric of the BBC concerning what they call Multiculturalism. Anybody who dared to talk about crimes committed by Muslims was immediately classified as Far Right or Extremist when the real Extremists where Muslims involved in criminal activities.

When the BBC and others, including Members of Parliament, finally started talking about the issues, they referred to the culprits calling them Asian Gangs to try and divert attention away from the real culprits. Asian people who had nothing to do with what was going on were blamed when in fact the crimes were being committed by Muslims and many of the said Muslims had a Pakistani background.

Today, the activities of criminal Muslim gangs are so widespread that denial is no longer possible. Having said that, the attacks by mass media against people who continue to campaign against Muslim criminals continue. Paul Golding, Jayda Fransen, Tommy Robinson and others are classified as Extremist, Racist, Fascist and the like.

The Speaker of the House of Commons (John Bercow) and some Labour MPs (political party that historically protected paedophiles) use Parliamentary Immunity to spread venom against those who stand against Muslim Criminals. This is happening at a time when Members of Parliament themselves -including John Bercow - stand accused of gross misconduct.

The pictures of those arrested, put on trial and convicted are just the tip of the iceberg. Whether we talk about religious criminals and/or religious terrorists, British Security Services have denounced that they don't have enough manpower to follow every lead. 

There is a gross inconsistency. On the one hand, those who raise the alert about the dangers of having Muslim criminals living in the United Kingdom are persecuted. On the other hand, vast amounts of money and other resources are spent on a daily basis to cope with the risks of having Muslim criminals in the United Kingdom in a country in which 85% per cent of inmates are Muslim and prisons are being used by criminals to indoctrinate and recruit individuals that when free would become involved in acts of terrorism.
