Good Friday thought
I have no idea whether Keir Starmer-stein has said anything about Easter; I have seen and heard nothing, yet I saw on Twitter/X that he invited a load of Jewish children to Downing Street a week ago in commemoration of the Jewish festival of Passover.

“The world is not without kind people” [Russian proverb].
Yet another Labour Friends of Israel MP who has “never had a job” (a non-political job) (excepting some work for Facebook). https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Josh_Simons#Early_life_and_education.
Hopefully, the next general election will see him chucked out.
Is he one of those “Labour” MPs with some kind of CIA or US Embassy (London) connection? I do not know.
You do not have to be a Labour Party supporter to see that Labour Friends of Israel member Liz Kendall is a disgrace.
“Them” (as always…).
“Portes”. Once (((again)))…
Britain has been invaded and is being occupied: “legal” immigrants (supposed spouses, fiancees, students, work-visa holders, then illegal immigrants on “small boats etc”, then births to those non-white women already in the UK, and also to stupid white/British women impregnated by blacks).
Again, Reform in the top two places of an opinion poll. I think that all opinion polls for the past 6-9 months have had Reform either top or second.
The “Conservatives” have no chance after their 14 years of appalling misgovernment 2010-2024, especially now that their idiot MPs and ordinary members have (for the second time) chosen to be led by a non-white, non-British “leader”.
On the Opinium figures, the Commons would have both Reform and Labour on 228 MPs, Cons with 97, and LibDems with 43 (taking LibDems and Green as each having a 10% vote-share). https://www.electoralcalculus.co.uk/userpoll.html
As with so many other recent polls, a Reform/Con government would be the only possibility, on those numbers, or a minority Reform government.
Very different figures, but same basic story. On those numbers, though, Reform UK would have about 325 MPs, one short of an absolute majority, but enough for a very thin working majority, without the need for support.
On the numbers there, Labour would have 154 MPs, Cons 58, and LibDems 45. If that were to happen, the Conservative Party would be utterly irrelevant, and likely to decline to near-zero over time.
Not sure whether that likely Con terminal decline would be the best result, or whether the best consequence of such an electoral result would be that Labour would have only 154 MPs instead of 403 (as now). A loss of 249 MPs. 249 upset System drones (plus 63 equally-upset Con ex-MPs; wonderful again…).
Quelle surprise…

If that is representative of the proportional losses of the Ukrainian and Russian forces, then the Kiev-regime is losing perhaps 20 soldiers for every Russian soldier killed.
Did he steal too much even for Zelensky’s cabal to accept?

[“Trump: US will leave talks if sabotage occurs, military aid to Ukraine suspended “If we see anyone trying to sabotage the negotiating process, the United States will withdraw from the negotiations,” Trump stressed. He also announced that the United States would no longer provide military support to Ukraine.”]
Looks as though the matter is moving towards the endgame, at least as far as American aid to the Kiev regime is concerned.
Hard to say how many tanks Russia now has. Somewhere between 2,000 and 10,000. The Kiev regime has somewhere between 500 and 1,500.
It is not impossible to imagine a direct assault on Kiev either this year or in 2026.

Re your point about the useless fake Conservative Party, the first time around the ‘election’ of a non-Briton was due to their moronic, globalist, liberal-libertarian MPs so, in all honesty, it was not that surprising. The second time it has come about by those MPs of that ideology AND their members. That is unforgivable and demonstrates the globalist liberal-libertarian rot which has been going on for the last three decades or so has now reached a no turning back situation.
Time the country binned the fake Conservative Party for good. From the polls it looks like that is happening.

I wonder how he explains the rise of Japan from being a bomb shattered wreck in 1945 to being an economic superpower by the 1960’s/1970’s then? According to his theories Japan with very low levels of immigration from 1945 to the present day should be on the brink of national bankruptcy! What complete rot he does talk.

Most economists think only quantitatively. Quality, meaning nature of population, is also important. I noticed when in Eastern and Central Europe in 1988 and 1989, and then in (mainly) 2001, how different societies existed under a similar political and economic system, for example Poland, DDR (East Germany) and Czechoslovakia, all under similar though not identical systems. All were very different in terms of both society generally and economic life. The same applies in the different Caribbean islands.

Re the fake Conservative Party, the first time around their election of a non-Briton could be blamed-upon their severely out of touch, moronic, politically inept, globalist libertarian MPs but the second time not just the MPs of that mindset can be blamed but ALSO their MEMBERS!
That is unforgivable but it does show the liberal/libertarian drift of the last thirty odd years has reached the point of no return.
Just how bad as an ‘Opposition’ leader do you have to be whereby as many as 35% of your party’s depleted number of voters last year thinks she would be the best PM?:

Reform UK really need to win that by-election in Runcorn and Helmsby for many reasons but one is that the Tories might have a brainwave and get rid of trans obsessed Kemi. Having her ‘lead’ the Tories is undoubtedly helping Reform UK.

Yes, Reform need to win at Runcorn, but Labour needs to win even more. My money is on Reform to win, and win handsomely, though of course it was until recently a very strong Labour seat; I also concede that the closest I have been to the area has been when travelling through on the London-Liverpool train a few times, most recently 30 years ago.

I do not think Reform UK will win handsomely considering how strongly Labour normally perform in the Halton Council area wards of the seat.The contest is a straight fight between the Labour Party and Reform. It will probably be won by either Labour or Reform UK by a margin of 10% or more likely 5% or less either way. A couple of thousand or a few hundred votes in other words.

You may be right, but my view is that, for many many people, how they view the System parties, and especially the Labour Party, has changed irrevocably since July 2024.

To win, Reform UK need to pick-up decent levels of support across the seat not just in the Runcorn (Halton Council) area wards but also in the more Tory-leaning Chester and Cheshire West wards like Helmsby and Frodsham. I think they will need to depress the Tory vote in those wards so as to reduce the 16% Conservative vote at the election last year. Certainly, getting at least some of that Tory vote to support them as an anti-Labour tactical vote will be crucial.
A win for Reform UK will not be easy. After all, the constituency was Labour’s 49th safest seat last year. At the moment, some of the national polls do indicate that Reform UK has a real chance of winning the by-election.

Yes, Charles has always been a globalist (in other words, a traitor) at heart. I remember reading in an article, nearly 30 years ago, where he complained about the extremely low numbers of black soldiers in the Guards. Over the years, he has got worse, becoming an advocate for the vile policies of the WEF. I believe that, should a referendum take place in the UK, most people will vote for his abdication or the outright abolition of the monarchy.

Regarding those barber and cell-phone shops that are popping up everywhere in the UK I would say that they are not only money-laundering centres but also drug selling points. All this subsidised by the British tax-payer via Starmerstein & Co. I have heard conflicting stories about them, some people say the shops are run mostly by Albanians and others say by Turks. Either way, they are not decent, hard-.working people and they SHOULD NOT be there.
