What would happen if an Islamic political party was created?

 

What would happen to British politics if an Islamic political party was created? 

Looking at demographics, it is easy to imagine that if Muslim communities stopped supporting existing political parties and decided to create an Islamic Party such political party would be very successful. Muslim families tend to have more children and therefore, every year, the number of those supporting the said party electorally would be increasing. Nowadays, a sizeable number of those coming to Britain as refugees come from Muslim countries and with European countries increasingle averse to accept Muslim refugees the numbers of those coming to UK would also be growing up.

If Jeremy Corbyn wanted to increase his political influence, he is making all the right moves. Those he is now joining as a group happen to be mostly former Labour candidates and former Labour members now acting as Independents that happen to be Muslim. As the Conservative Party did before, Labour is alienating Muslim voters. More conservative Muslim voters not only oppose the mainstream political parties' policies and attitudes regarding Israel. They also oppose sexual ideology that openly contradicts traditional Muslim values.

Conservative Party: 40,000 teachers left the profession. NHS is bleeding professionals that are leaving even for other countries

Conservative Party is in a crisis with MPs no longer willing to stand for re-election and even members of the Cabinet announcing that they will not be standing for re-election. In the meantime, problems are being piled up at all levels. 

In education, more than 40,000 teachers are no longer teaching. They have had more than enough. When asked, a school teacher said 'I could not take it any more. It was not just about 35 pupils in the classroom. It was also about dealing with children with mental health issues that made teaching impossible.' It is not about remuneration. It is about working conditions. Teacher are supposed to teach. They are not supposed to deal with psychiatric problems thrown in the classroom.

What has changed about the operation of Police stations in the UK. Politicians including Prime Minister Rishi Sunak make promises in the House of Commons that he really and truly knows that cannot be delivered. Police stations are not even receiving reports regarding property stolen, let alone theft of mobile phones. They are understaff and they don't have the resources to deal with that kind of crime.

How much times does a consultant in the NHS have to deal with patients? Not much. There are not enough consultants and not enough specialised staff. There is so much that can be done with lack of human resources and with lack of equipment.

And what happens in Job Centres? Unqualified staff and insufficient staff are leading to DWP staff quitting their jobs because they cannot deal with the workload they are forced to deal with. 

And what happens at the Home Office? Not enough staff to deal with mountains of applications and the natural consequence is that everything gets delayed and this has social consequences. A rising number of people are wandering around in limbo and more often than not local authorities, schools and social services have to deal with the outcome having to find non existing accommodation for families with children, many of which are facing mental health problems and situations of abuse including domestic violence.

This is a tale of massive government incompetence. Government secretaries of state and ministers spend an awful amount of time making political statements and seem absolutely oblivious to reality. What is the point of spending millions of Pound every ten years to carry out Censuses? Save the money spent on Censuses and spend it to really try to solve the myriad of problems Britain is facing. Whatever data can be gathered in censuses are completely unreliable.

You will never be able to keep up with inflation when trying to support families via the welfare state. Look at the cost of buying and look at the cost of renting. Private renting is a total waste of resources. The private market is not supposed to meet the needs of those in need. Private letting is a business. What is needed is the sort of letting that can be controlled by the state. If you have social housing, the monies can be kept by the state and re-invested in social services. Private renting should be left for those who can afford to rent without state support. The state should be both landlord and service provider.

Do you know what happens to families with children that are forced to be constantly on the move from one area to another, from one city to another? Do you know what happens when it comes to education, health, work, family cohesion and mental health? Instability, uncertainty, mental health problems, domestic violence, constant financial struggle and dependency and the list goes on.

United Kingdom: Where does the principle of social responsibility stand? Robots are killing jobs and increasing anti-social trends

We talk about technology and about how beautiful technology is. Some bits of technology are obviously very attractive and rewarding for many, but other bits of technology can create social mayhem. Every year, policians of all political colours talk about rates of unemployment, but when it comes to unemployment rates, a single piece of equipment has created a lot of unemployment and especially amongst those more vulnerable in society.

I went to my local supermarket. It was a beehive of activity and the shopping experience was very much a social experience. I knew the attendants and the attendants knew me since I had been going to the same shop day in and day out for several years.

Yesterday, I went to the same local supermarket and it was as quiet as a funeral parlour. All I could see was a queue of puzzled customers and a security guard that had to get out of his way every three minutes to help customers that were struggling to use the self-check out machines that often get stuck while you are registering your shopping.
When shops or banks are not closed down straight away, they usually incorporate self-checkout machines and other automatic equipment. The more automatic equipment is introduced the less of a reason to return as a customer. I value people and I value the social experience. Shopping is not just about putting things into a basket and registering the goods on a robotic machine.

Politicians talk a lot about the importance of building up communities. They are not going to build up communities with robotic machines that are destroying jobs and ruining social experiences. 

Something similar was proposed when the closure of ticket offices in railway stations was mentioned. Should you have a heart attack, should you need any especific information, should you be attacked at the station, you can ask the electronic machine on the wall to help you. This kind of technology is dehumanising and anti-social. It is destroying the very same things that we say that we want in society.

Looting and shoplifting are on the way up. I am sure that looters and shoplifters will care very little about a solitary security guard that would not want to put his or her life in danger by trying to prevent robberies. If you were alone inside a shop and a crowd of undesirables entered the shop to take everything they want or can get from inside the shop, would you stand on their way? A local shop was targetted so many times in a single month that the shop was closed down for good and all this happens because of misuse of technology. Society is about people. Society is not about robotic machines that replaced people.

Owen Jones: If Labour does not stand up for people, Unions will

 

An article published on The Guardian today catches out attention. The title is pretty suggestive. Is The Guardian seems to indicating that the Labour Party and the trade unions will part company?

Sometime ago, a high ranking Liberal Democrat, Vince Cable, proposed the creation of a new political force that would unite Labour and Liberal Democrat politicians. The talk about cooperation in terms of voting strategies in recent by-elections also suggest that something is cooking.

Vince Cable, like many other Liberal Democrat politicians are closer to the City than they are to the Trade Union Movement, and Keir Starmer seem to have turned farther right than his predecessors. In fact, getting rid of Jeremy Corbyn was part of the strateg, but all might no be what it seems. The Labour Party is split from the very top and The Guardian's suggestion that 'Labour's hostile posture to a newly assertive trade union movement could prove a costly error'. It is not a secret that Trade Union that finance several Labour MPs and that certain guidelines have been adopted in term of withdrawing financial support for those who do not support the Trade Union Movement as much as the Trade Union Movement wants to be supported. Even David Lammy came out saying that 'he does not support strikes'. Labour's stances are a double edged sword that can hurt its aspirations.

The Leadership of the Labour Party knows fairly well that the present troubles are not really caused by economic policies implemented by the Conservative Party. They know that there are geopolitical issues that are accelerating inflation and leading to industrial unrest, unrest that would exist one way or another under a Conservative government or a Labour government, issues that would undermine any administratoion regardless of political orientation.

By-elections are by-elections, won one day and lost the next. Some Conservatives are not happy with a government that they think is 'not Conservative enough'. They might prefer to stick to the old ways, talking about lower taxes, a smaller state, and so forth. Do we favour the use of more fossil fuels or do we favour the environment with less use of fossil fuels? Energy costs are going up and will continue to go up, pushing prices up and leading to an effective devaluation of the Pound. If you can buy less with your Pound, then this is in fact devaluation of the Pound or you can call it also 'a salary reduction'. Nominally, you might have the same number of Pounds, but due to inflation you will only be able to buy less with your money.

Batley and Spen: George Galloway launches a crusade against Keir Starmer

 













While Keir Starmer is busy in a game of chairs to maintain control of the Labour Party after a series of electoral defeats including Hartlepool and Chesham and Amersham where the Labour Party was put behing the Greens with a few hundred votes, the chase is on.

It was Diane Abbott, a close associate of Jeremy Corbyn - former Labour Party Leader thrown out of the Labour Party and now standing as an Independent in the House of Commons -, who said that defeat in Batley and Spen would be the end of the leadership of Keir Starmer.

George Galloway is another former Labour MP involved in a crusade to defeat the Labour Party in Batley and Spen - the seat that used to be represented by Jo Cox where none other than Kim Leadbeater sister of Jo Cox is standing for election.

Who can Keir Starmer trust inside the Labour Party shadow cabinet? Who can he count on should there be another leadership challenge? Every reshuffle is a bruising experience. Could there be a Labour Dominic Cummings in waiting?

As previously reported, the gap between Labour and Conservative has been getting smaller since the seat went to Labour in 1997. Now, Muslim voters that constitute a sizeable minority in Batley and Spen and other disaffected Labour voters most of whom voted for Brexit see little in the present Labour Party. If we take this into account then Batley and Spen is a very marginal Labour seat and ready for the taking.

The margin in 2019 was 3,525. Given what has been happening since the demise of Jeremy Corbyn, it is not unthinkable that such a reduced majority could be wiped out by those who choose to support George Galloway and those who choose to abstain. In this particular scenario, since the two main contenders are Labour and Conservative, there would be no strategic voting that could save the Labour Party from certain defeat because the Lib Dems are two far below to make up for the difference. It must also be said that the Lib Dems got 4.7% of the share of the vote compared to the previous election in 2017 and that another change of leadership in the Labour Party would signal that the choices made by Labour voters in Chesham and Amersham where voters chose to vote Lib Dem were right. 

In May 20201, Labour kept control of 44 Council having lost 8, while the Conservatives gained 13 reaching 63 local authorities. Yet another rebuff in Batley and Spen, a seat held by Labour and that has an important meaning for Labour as it was represented by Jo Cox, the Member of Parliament killed on June 16th 2016.

At 12:53 pm, Britsh Summer Time, on Thursday, June 16th 2016, Jo Cox (born Helen Joanne Leadbeater) was shot and stabbed outside a librery in Birstall, West Yorkshire. Witnesses indicated that she was shot three times - once near the head - and stabbed multiple times.

Not surprising then that the Labour Party decided to put aside its own party rules regarding membership and candidates for election and decided to allow Kim Leadbeater to stand for election, a move that didn't happen without criticism from within the Labour Party itself. Whether emotional elements have any weight with voters remains to be seen. In any case, Kim Leadbeater has stated that she is the only candidate standing that has actual links with Batley and Spen.

Dominic Cummings: Whistleblower or Spiteful man seeking revenge no matter what?

 



For months on end, the Opposition targetted Dominic Cummings identifying him as the source of all evil in the British government. Mr. Cummings was pictured and depicted in the most negative manner, harassed by journalists and lots of ink was spread about him being the worst of the worst. They even laughed when he presumably was infected with Covid-19.

Months passed and one day Dominic Cummings was fired by the Conservative goverment. The Opposition celebrated. Finally, they had got their man and he was out of government. Such an evil influence he had been! Now, months later after he was fired, he has now been made the centre of attention because he is saying exactly what the Opposition wants him to say to attack the Conservative government.

But wait a minute! Mr. Cummings is saying that he knew that lives were being put at risk and chose to stay in government, keeping his mouth shut while thousands were dying? So here comes the fact. If what he says is true, then Mr Cummings is guilty as hell for being part of a lethal cover up and criminal charges should be raised against him for being an accomplice of serious crimes. He says that he knew that lives were being put in danger and chose to remain silent until when? Until he was fired. Only months after he was fired he calculated that it was then the time to talk and reveal all. This stinks as the cold blooded maneuvers of a political manipulator that knows which buttons to press to get things his way.

The Opposition has been a disgrace, failing to carry out proper opposition, focusing on scandals instead of promoting viable alternatives and now the Opposition - once again - is not offering the kind of choices that ordinary voters want to hear about. What is the reality of it all? Britain is coming out of Lockdown. The economy is starting to pick up speed and moving in the right direction. The country is once again open for business and business is what Britain is about. 

Do I trust the present Opposition? The previous Shadow Cabinet was a shambles with various examples of sheer incompetence and then came yet another reshuffle very much like a game of chairs. The grass roots of the Labour Party, elected representatives of the Labour Party, are publicly saying that they don't know what the Labour Party stands for, that they don't have a clue about what the Labour Party stands for. People were joking about the demotion of the Deputy Leader of the Labour Party that was given so many attributions as compensation for her demotion that she might have become a risk for the Labour Party Leader Keir Starmer.

Things are so bad, the Labour MPs who are still loyal to the previous Labour Party Leader Jeremy Corbyn even with that the Labour Party does badly in the Batley and Spen by-election due to take place in July as a way to get rid of Keir Starmer. Is using what Mr Cummings is saying - regardless of it being true or false - a way to divert attention from the miserable state the Opposition is in?

The disconnect between the Labour Party and its supporters is plainly obvious. In Batley and Spen, a community with a vast presence of people of Pakistani and Indian descent (16.9% Pakistani and 15.9% Indian) where Labour has had a majority since 1997, 60% per cent of voters voted for Brexit. The London centric Labour Party seems to be ignoring the will of its supporters all along. They ignored the will of voters in Hartlepool and were routed by the Conservative Party. Wil they seek to ignore the will of voters once again in Batley and Spen? 

I understand why the Opposition is trying to find some alternative narrative to motivate voters to come out and vote for them. If Kim Leadbeater really want to win the seat in Batley and Spen she might be well advised to put some distance between herself and the Parliamentary Labour Party, between herself and the leadership of the Labour Party, and to choose to fight the election on purely local issues. Keir Starmer position on geopolitical issues might not carry the favour of people who are predominantly Muslim. Some die-hard Remain stances might not be very favourable either.

Kim Leadbeater: In a first past the post election, we should think more about the qualities of the candidate than about the qualities of the leader of a political party

 

Whether Kim Leadbeater is or isn't the sister of Jo Cox that used to represent Batley and Spen - there will be a by-election next July - is for some people a relevant issue and some think that she was selected to stand because she is the sister of Jo Cox.

For me, personally, it is about the qualities of the candidate and it should not matter who is the Leader of the Labour Party. It is a first-past-the-post election. We should focus on the candidate and not on who is the Leader of the party.

By the same token, people in Manchester voted for Andy Burnham because Andy Burnham was the man standing, I am sure that many of those voting for Andy Burnham do not agree with the way Keir Starmer is leading the Labour Party, but they still voted for Andy Burnham because they like the way he runs Manchester as Mayor of Manchester. The same should apply to Batley and Spen.

Some Labour MPs have publicly said that if the Labour Party loses the by-election in a seat that they have held since 1997 (the year when Tony Blair came to power as Prime Minister), it will be curtains for Keir Starmer's leadership. For some, this is about the Labour Party. I think this is about the person that the people of Batley and Spen want to represent them in Westminster.

Trying to equate Hartlepool with Batley and Spen is wrong for various reasons. Firstly, the by-election in Hartlepool was called because the local Labour MP resigned because of an ongoing investigation into sexual abuses. The situation is Batley and Spen is radically different. The by-election in Batley and Spen was called because Tracy Brabin - the local Labour MP - was elected Mayor of West Yorkshire. 

There is a significant factor. In the EU Membership Referendum, 60 per cent of those who voted voted for Brexit. Therefore, some in the Labour Party should tone down their anti-Brexit rhetoric and at least try to respect the will of the voters of Batley and Spen.

Kim Leadbeater has spoken with wisdom. She has reminded the official Labour Party that far too many Labour MPs have no experience of the real world and that this contributes to their detachment from ordinary voters.

The Fall of the BNP and the rise of National Action

The Fall of the BNP and the rise of National Action

There is no coincidence that groups like National Action appeared in the United Kingdom. The demise of the British National Party under a disastrous leadership led directly to the rise of extremist groups and National Action is one of them but there are many more and their numbers are being fulled by a very myopic approach that enriches the rhetoric of the violent against the principles of democratic coexistence.

Liberalism and Marxism have become the new intolerance. Marxism has always being intolerant but now has joined forces with Liberalism in a struggle that is destroying the foundation of a democratic way of life.

The designs and ulterior motives of Liberals and Marxists matter more than the will of the Electorate. We have been here before. The Weimar Republic comes to mind for the Weimar Republic was described as a democracy without democrats.

By putting obstacles along the way, Liberals and Marxists and the drivers of political correctness are destroying our democratic way of life. When people are banned from organizing political parties to take part in lawful democratic activities, Liberals and Marxists are creating the recipe for the destruction of our democratic way of life. Whether you like or dislike what people stand for, all political views should be present on the ballot for the Electorate to decide.

The then Home Secretary Amber Rudd banned National Action. What did she achieve? If I said 'Absolutely nothing,' I would be generous. She achieved something. She managed to increase radicalisation because the ideas of National Action have spread under other names and the myopic actions of the Electoral Commission are now being used as a recruitment tool.

When political ideas cannot be expressed within a democratic framework, radicalisation grows and spreads. If political fights do not take place by using ballots, we end up in a situation in which ballots will be replaced with guns.

Liberals and Marxists like to talk about the Good Friday Agreement that put an end to the troubles in the Republic of Ireland and in Northern Ireland. What was the idea of the Good Friday Agreement? To allow both Unionists and Republicans to engage in a democratic process as a meas to put an end to violence.

Using the same logic then, the Electoral Commission shouldn't use its powers to prevent the participation of political groups in democratic elections because by using its powers in such a manner the Electoral Commission is going against the spirit of the Good Friday Agreement. Democratic participation is the way to prevent violence. If the Electoral Commision prevents democratic participation then the Electoral Commission is promoting violence and I don't think that the Electoral Commision should be promoting violence because this is not what the Electoral Commission shoul.d be about.

We need as much democratic participation as possible. We need everybody involved in the democratic process.

Naga Munchetty: Not the only one to put the BBC in jeopardy

Naga Munchetty: Not the only one to put the BBC in jeopardy

Naga Manchetty
Naga Munchetty is part of a culture that has taken over the BBC, of presenters and journalists that believe that they can use the BBC to promote their own political agendas. 

Personally, I don't believe that people should be forced to pay the TV License to subsidize a propaganda machine.

The role of the BBC is to ask questions, to investigate and to present facts for its audience to form their own judgment about what is happening around the world. The BBC role is not to make political. statements.

Individuals like Kay Burley can get away with making political statements and showing extraordinary bias because she works for a private broadcaster. Whether shareholders of Sky News think that it is good idea to allow Kay Burley to behave the way she behaves destroying Sky News reputation in terms of impartiality is another matter. Channel Four, another public broadcaster, is not far behind in terms of bias and lack of impartiatlity. On this day and age when 75% of the population no longer trusts Parliament, the mass media have little credibility left. We must add now the Judiciary that is seen as party political. 

We are confronting a crisis of widespread lack of trust. Drastic action must now be taken to try to rescue British institutions and the credibility of mass media. Parliamentarians complain about rising anger that is leading to violence against MPs. Well, Sky News share huge responsibility for the creation of political instability. Constant demonising of political personalities and political organisations has formented political instability. Kay Burley has an issue with Nigel. Farage and she is not only outspoken on Sky News and other programmes but also on social media. Reporting is not just reporting. It has become poisonous, biased and potentially dangerous reporting because it fuel.tensions. She couldn't hide her delight and celebratory mood witnessing what she thought was the misfortunes of the British Prime Minister and of the Conservative Party.

When courts are used to cancel the fair outcome of an election, democracy is gone

When courts are used to cancel the fair outcome of an election, Democracy is gone

The cancelation of Brexit is the worst possible outcome for all. Parliament was already downgraded in peoples' eyes. For a second, it seemed that trust in Parliament was going to be restored when Article 50 was triggered and it appeared that Parliament was going to respect the will of the Electorate. The romance was short lived when the corrupt gangs showed their true colours.

The greatest fraud is the Scottish National Party that pretends to stand for Scotland's interest when in fact it is selling Scotland down the drain, transferring powers from Westminster to an unelected mafia that will ultimately lead the European Continent to a disastrous war. They pretend to stand for the British people when in fact they couldn't care less about Britain. They openly campaign for the partition of Britain. It is their lifetime goal. 

They are followed at close range by the Liberal Democrats - a travestu of a political party that goes where the wind blows playing for position. All principles were thrown away to form a coalition with the Conservative Party that generated the procedural mess Britain is in today. The Fixed Term Parliament Act was born out of that mess. Had not been for the Fixed Term Parliament Act, Britain would be having a General Election to at least try to clear the air.

The next in line is the Labour Party. Another fraud. For decades they have been calling Nazi, Fascist, and Racist their political opponents. The attacked National Front, British National Party, UKIP and of recent the Conservatives and the Brexit Party using such labels. Well, the real Jew haters are in the Labour Party and very much in control of the Labour Party.

The British political system is not dysfunctional because of the electoral system. It is dysfunctional because it is controlled by rotten and crooked individuals supported by mass media that are equally rotten and crooked..The direct consequence has been the degradation of Democracy in Britain.

BBC's pitfalls and Rory Stewart's obstinacy talking about putting Theresa May's Deal to the vote yet again

BBC's pitfalls and Rory Stewart's obstinacy talking about putting Theresa May's Deal to the vote yet again

Lack of due diligence led the BBC into a trap of its own making. Trying to question Boris Johnson about comments he made long before he became a leadership contender, the BBC invited an Imam to talk about Islamophobia only to find out hours later that the said Iman that has now been expelled by his Mosque and by the school where he was Deputy Headmaster had been writing anti-Semitic comments and derogatory comments about women. Not a happy time for the BBC that was recently put on the spot for getting rid of free TV Licenses for over 75s and for the amounts paid to certain individuals, salaries paid with the income produced by TV Licenses.

Rory Stewart made a fundamental gaffe. The foundation of his argument to become Prime Minister was the idea of trying to push through the House of Commons the very same deal negotiated by Theresa May that was rejected by the House of Commons three times. In the first round he got 19 votes and manage to increase his support to 37 votes, but right after the BBC debate his support simply collapsed losing 10 votes of the 37 he had.

Tomorrow, there be will another round and there would be additional rounds until two candidates are left with the most votes. A series of hustings will take place across the country in which members of the Conservative Party will listen and then vote to decide who is going to be the next British Prime Minister. But, as Churchill stated, "Now this is not the end. It is not even the beginning of the end. But it is, perhaps, the end of the beginning." 

The newly elected Conservative Prime Minister will have to deal with the same fragmented Parliament and as the October 31, 2019 deadline approaches tensions will rise even more. With the EU in a state of disarray, with the Labour Party extremely divided, nobody is the in mood for negotiations. The choice is still a binary option.

Alastair Campbell: From Golden Labour boy to pariah

Crown Prosecution Service used for Political Purposes

Crown Prosecution Service used for Political Purposes

When the courts are used for political purposes, Britain is in serious trouble as this can have unintended consequences. There is a time when the Armed Forces will have to take over to restore order since so called mainstream political parties don't seem to be able to put an end to the mess. Anybody with enough money can play with the legal system because the legislation allows it and in the end the nation would face the tragic consequences.

Trust in politics is lost. Trust in Parliament is lost. The more the Crown Prosecution Services are used for the wrong reasons then trust in the Crown Prosecution Service will go down the drain. A growing number of people are reported to be willing to take justice into their own hands. A private prosecution process doesn't come cheap and therefore somebody has the cash to buy the Crown Prosecution Services for political purposes. They fear Boris Johnson could become Prime Minister of the United Kingdom and they are ready to do whatever to prevent Boris Johnson from becoming Prime Minister of the United Kingdom.

A directive has been imparted directives to detect unwanted activities within the Armed Forces. Too late. The British Armed Forces have been infiltrated and paramilitaries are being trained. It is just a matter of time. It is an absolute disaster and the political establishment and the mass media are very much creating a fertile ground for Armageddon.

British National Party - Police playing politics

British National Party - Police Playing Politics

It is not the role of Police Forces in the United Kingdom to be a political party. Unfortunately, the Police in this country behave like a political party. We experience this when Police authorities say that somebody cannot be a police officer or play any role in Police forces if the said person is a member or has been a member of the British National Party, of EDL or of a range of other organisations that happen to be political organisations. What is more such depraved attitudes of Police authorities is shared by politicians of other political organisations and those running the mass media in the United Kingdom. Entire segments of British public opinion have been excluded, discriminated against, persecuted, harassed, excluded from jobs in many sectors of the British economy.

When you hear voices talking against extremism, including representatives of Police Officers, you know that they don't have a clue about what they are talking about. If you systematically exclude people from engaging in lawful activities, you will push people towards extremism. 

Jack Renshaw and others that are in British jails were young people who had political ambitions and who wanted to engage in the political process lawfully via elections. They were not about violence. They were not about threatening to kill people. They were systematically discriminated against and their turned against a system that excluded them. For this we have to blame Police Forces, the Political Establishment and the Mass Media and their messages and their messages that demonised ordinary human beings. When they saw that there was no political outlet, they went off the rail and started planning to kill fellow human beings to vent their frustration.

Jo Cox was not a victim and she is usually depicted by the Political Establishment and the Mass Media. She was a victimiser. She was actively campaigning to reinforce the trends towards exclusion and demonising and she fell on her own sword when an individual went out of his way to get her out.

Today, Members of Parliament  complain that they don't feel safe. Well, Members of Parliament of all sides of the political spectrum represented in Parliament feel unsafe. The time was well overdue for Members of Parliament to be made to feel unsafe because we as ordinary people have been feeling unsafe for a very long time because of the policies of a Parliament that lives most of the time in cuckooland. Do ordinary people feel safe? You can ask the relatives of those who have lost their lives or suffered because of the climate of insecurity created by the Political Establishment. They talk a  lot about gang crime but they do close to nothing to deal with the realities that lead to gang crime and knife crime. For ages ordinary people have been forced to live in subhuman conditions and the said subhuman conditions lead to crime.

Zero Hour contracts, sub-employment and other ills of hour time, what do the Political Establishment and the Mass Media think that badly paid unsafe jobs generate? They talk about school exclusions. Well, where do most of those excluded come from? They come from households that live on the edge in a permanent struggle for survival.

Look at the membership criteria of political parties. When they justify exclusions, they are justifying social exclusion and violence. They talk about having a national debate. Well, a real national debate should include all segments of the political spectrum including those they classify as extremist. 

Let me give an example. Before the Good Friday Agreement, the Provisional IRA and others were classified as terrorist organisations and Sinn Fein - the political side of the Provisional IRA - was excluded. Was there peace? When did Peace finally arrive? When there were talks between people who hated each other to death. 

The Far Right and those called Far Right have a genuine right to be part of the national debate for the debate to be national. Until everyone is included and until Police Authorities are forced to stop talking political rubbish, there will not be peace and more and more people will be going off the rail and engaging in violence as the only way of making their views known.

National Action: I have said all along that National Action is very much part of the Armed Forces

National Action is very much part of the British Armed Forces

Quite a few times I mentioned to my own Member of Parliament and to members of the British Cabinet that serving soldiers and veterans were training paramilitaries in the United Kingdom. Nobody listened.

I also said that if lower ranks were involved medium ranks were fully aware of their political affiliations and inclinations. Nobody listened.

My Member of Parliament asked me if I was willing to talk to Member of the Security Services about it. I declined. Why? Because I don't trust British Security Services. I don't trust them because of their record in certain matters and I don't trust them because of evident levels of sheer incompetence.
There is no fear. For serving soldiers fully aware of the implications of showing themselves shooting at a picture of Jeremy Corbyn to do what they did is a clear hint of what could certainly happen and of the mood within the British Armed Forces.

General Election? Is it wise? Jeremy Corbyn could go the way Salvador Allende went and Parliament could become a thing of the past.

Britain: Brexit and other political realities

Britain: Brexit and other political realities

Despite the time lost and resources lost, I think that there is a very positive side of Brexit and what happens concerning Brexit. The political system has been tested. What I call Vote Cooperatives - political associations based on convenience rather than true beliefs - are falling apart. For a very long time so called mainstream political parties have merely been labels that people use to get elected without actually sharing beliefs, values and aims.

If the Brexit process leads to healthier and truer political parties then this will be a very welcome outcome of the Brexit process. What we see as fragmentation and divisions is nothing more than a reality check that proves that, as I have stated, political parties in Britain have been nothing more than Vote Cooperatives.

There is another fundamental issue and it is the issue of how people get elected. The system is deficient and much too many people feel that they are not voting for what they want but to stop something that they don't want and this is very reflected by the choices made by Parliament. Too many Members of Parliament feel that they don't have the obligation to represent those who voted for them. Driven by their own ideologies and beliefs, they are directly responsible for the gap between elected authorities and the Electorate. They are responsible for the growing lack of trust in the system.

The time is long overdue for politicians to start delivering on what they promised to the Electorate.Some parties like the SNP have as the main agenda to destroy the United Kingdom. They are fixated on the issue of an independent Scotland at whatever price. They want to take powers away from Westminster to give the said powers to an elected group of foreign bureaucrats.They hate the United Kingdom so much that they are very much willing to destroy Scotland in the process.

Henry Bolton: British Mass Media not even remotely interested in substance politics

Henry Bolton: British Mass Media not even remotely interested in substance politics.

As Henry Bolton, UKIPs Leader, prepares himself to make a statement this afternoon at 4:00pm in Folkestone, the British Massi Media - presumed defenders of public freedoms - are only interested in superficial issues and innuendo.

Whether his girlfriend had or hand't racist views is absolutely irrelevant. The girlfriend is now history since they have both parted company. Then was the vote of confidence and the resignation of a deputy and an aide. What has happened from a substantial point of view? Absolutely nothing. There is no discussion about policies whatsoever.

In the meantime Nigel Farage and Arron Banks are reportedly talking about new political developments. Is this news? Not at all. Nigel Farage and Arron Banks have been talking about new political developments for a very long time - in fact since right after the Referendum on the EU. I spoke with Arron Banks about plans during a business event in London a few months ago. Since then there was another leadership election in which Ann Marie Waters was not successful and left UKIP to form another political organisation called For Britain.

Scandals or pseudo scandals are what the mass media specialise on even when there are very important issues - non related to UKIP - that need to be talked about. How what is happening in UKIP right now is relevant in the grand scheme of things? Well, it isn't relevant. In the meantime, political forces are getting ready for local elections in London where Councillors are going to be elected in all London boroughs. This is what we should be talking about but attention is diverted from the main issues to talk about rubbish.

British Nationalism Round 2

British Nationalism Round 2

What we knew as British Nationalism was very much dominated by ideas and concepts from the 1930s and 1940s. This is why it could easily be labelled as something else that had little to do with genuine British interests.

Labelling has been a tactic used by Marxist organisations keeping the ghosts of World War Two in the minds of ordinary people and a way to misrepresent, distort and victimise those who have raised genuine concerns about the direction of travel of today's Britain. Even those who had little or nothing to do with certain movements or ideologies have been classified as Nazi, Fascist, Xenophobe, Anti-Semite and the like. At one point, members of the Conservative Party and of the United Kingdom Independence Party were shouted at and discriminated against using the same labels.

In the same manner that Vince Cable MP talked about the need for a new political map of Britain to replace the duality Conservative/Labour, it is self-evident that the two-party status quo is no longer a viable alternative. The Liberal Democrats themselves had a rude awakening when they lost practically 4/5 of their representation in the House of Commons. Britain has changed and the so called mainstream political parties are nothing more than a loose association of different ideological trends.

As the United Kingdom leaves the European Union, there will be new political definitions and this could lead to the rise of a true British Nationalist political party that will be essentially British, a modern political party, a political party for the Twenty-First Century.

British National Party: Monies presumably donated to the party appear to end up in its National Treasurer's pockets

Records of the Electoral Commission indicate that monies presumably given to the British National Party as legacies are shown as loans the organisation will have to pay to Clive Jefferson who happens to be the National Treasurer. For an organisation that has less than a thousand members, claims for hundreds of thousands of Pounds as 'Administration Costs' seem to be absolutely disproportionate.

Those donating monies to the British National Party in the form of legacies should think very carefully, especially when the said legacies seem to be diverted into the pockets of its National Treasurer Clive Jefferson and then resurface as loans made to the British National Party.

Fears that the British National Party has ceased to be a political party to become a cash-cow for the benefit of a few individuals including its National Treasurer seem to be absolutely justified. The information provided to and by the Electoral Commission in the United Kingdom is extremely worrying.

From being a so called Far Right political party, the British National Party has been turned into a Far Wrong political party - although to qualify the British National Party as a political party would be a bit of an exaggeration since its has practically no representation in the United Kingdom and it merely managed to stand about ten candidates in the recent General Election only to lose all the deposits.

Jo Cox: Right to the Point

Jo Cox: Right to the Point


  • The then Labour MP Jo Cox was murdered. Fact. 
  • The man who killed her had asked NHS for help because he was feeling mentally unstable and was told to come back another day. Fact



  • Jo Cox was campaigning to deprive quite a lot of people of the right to have say in a Democratic Society. Fact.



  • In the UK, there is legislation and regulations that bans members of legal political parties from certain professions. Fact.
These are the irrefutable facts and we know that this is the case and that for a very long time 1) the infra-structure to deal with cases of mental illness has been deficient and 2) there has been institutionalised political repression promoted by some political parties, the mass media and para-political organisations and the Trade Union movement to the point that one particular organisation called the National Union of Journalists actively encourages and promotes hostile attitudes against people who do not agree with its own ideological platform.

At this moment in time, I am not a member of any political party, I have no political affiliation whatsoever. Just a few days ago, I went to witness rallies that took part near the Houses of Parliament - one organised by Britain First and another organised by EDL.

I was accosted by a woman identified as a representative of the National Union of Journalists that in a very intimidating bully manner came to me and started a sort of interrogation followed by all kinds of accusations. I was there merely as an observer, filming and talking to people around me and this included talking to deployed Police officers both at Charing Cross BR and on the Embankment promenade. I didn't make any speeches. I didn't applaud or cheer anyone. I repeat: I was there merely as an external observer.

So called UAF and Hope Not Hate are bully organisations and we know the tactics some of their members use wearing balaclavas and physically attacking those that they don't like. It has got to the point when Conservative Party activists were attacked and politicians like Nigel Farage stated that at one point he was afraid of living his home for fear of being targeted by violent thugs.

The death of an individual is lamentable but how much of what is going on was promoted by Jo Cox herself? The present climate of intolerance and violence against political opponents has existed for quite a while and have said more than once that Police forces are deployed to protect people against United Against Fascism that I call United Against Freedom and Hope Not Hate that I call Hate Not Hope.

Banning members of legal political parties from certain professions is not only wrong. It should be illegal because it is not consistent with Democracy. The fact that such bans exist degrades Democracy and promotes discrimination and persecution.
