Wise and fed up
With Brexit now seemingly ‘done’, Nigel Farage starts to show his true colours again by revealing his next ‘big battle to fight’. I know that China are no paragons of virtue, but this ‘anti-China narrative’ has been simmering ever since the pandemic first broke last year, and it looks like certain ‘agitators’ are going to […]
Americans are heading to the polls today (3rd November 2020) to decide who will be their next president. It’s pretty much a straight choice between the Republicans’ Donald Trump and the Democrats’ Joe Biden. There probably are other candidates, but you’ll never hear about them in the media. I’m neither American, nor do I live […]
As you may remember, I was a supporter of and member of UKIP for a couple of years, but I let my membership lapse in April 2020, as I’d had enough of the wrangling and failures within that party. One of the few people I had a great deal of respect for within UKIP was […]
My membership lapsed in April after I lost interest in the internal shenanigans and wranglings going on within UKIP. But I must admit I was incredibly pleased to learn a couple of days ago that Freddy Vacha had been appointed as the new leader of UKIP, following the ousting of Richard Braine last year. Now […]
Up until a few weeks ago, UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson was being portrayed as some kind of ‘hero’ by the mainstream press. After all, back in December 2019 he and his Conservative party had won a General Election by some margin, and earlier this year he had delivered on his promise to “get Brexit […]
There’s probably a very good chance that if I ask you if you’ve ever heard of the organisation “Common Purpose”, the answer is likely “no”. Who/what is “Common Purpose”? On the surface, the statement made on their website seems fairly well-intentioned. We develop leaders who can cross boundaries. We live in a world full of […]
So the election results are in and the Conservatives have won a sizeable majority, leaving Boris Johnson holding the ‘hot potato’ that is Brexit. In 2017, I became convinced that the then Prime Minister Theresa May ran an election campaign that was designed so that the Conservatives would lose, and to hand over the proverbial […]
So almost predictably, with the ‘threat’ of a ‘No-Deal’ exit from the EU having been ‘taken off the table’, with a further Article 50 extension to January 31st now agreed, Parliament has now agreed to Boris Johnson’s request for a General Election, which will be held on Thursday 12th December 2019. Why now? I know […]
In 2016, the people of the UK were asked to cast a vote on Britain’s membership of the EU. The overall results were as follows:Leave: 17,410,742 (51.9%)Remain: 16,141,241 (48.1%)Total electorate: 46,501,241 Turnout: 72.2% A simple binary choice was given to the British people, should we stay or should we go? (to quote The Clash!) Admittedly […]
It is ironic that M. Juncker is complaining of “Brexit fatigue”, while the British public are themselves becoming tired of the charade being played out in front of us, just going round and around in circles not getting anywhere. Theresa May desperately wants to get her Withdrawal Agreement signed off, so she can proudly announce […]
