33 : The Spy Who Didn't Come Back from Dinner

Every so often journalist,commentator,columnist non-pareil Peter Hitchens hits the proverbial nail on the head. The other week in the otherwise not terribly important Wiltshire county town of Salisbury a most unfortunate incident occurred. A former Russian intelligence officer and his daughter were apparently subjected to poisoning by what authorities describe as a deadly nerve agent. This incident happened,so it seems,whilst they were having dinner at a local restaurant. MSM and social media platforms went ballistic over this. Boris Johnson, the Minority May Regime's Foreign Affairs Secretary even more so. Boycott of the FIFA World Cup, A myriad of potential targeted and general sanctions against  Russia and so on and so forth. In his  Mail on Sunday column ,Peter Hitchens ,as usual, managed to put some perspective on the entire burgeoning imbroglio. " 10 March 2018 10:18 PM PETER HITCHENS: We're goading Russia into a 'dirty war' we CANNOT win This ...

31: EU sets out final list of demands

February 28 has the EU's chief Brexit negotiator Barnier laying down the law to the Minority UK regime vis a vis the EU's stance on the conduct and preferred timetable for the remainder of the UK/EU Leave negotiations. The pro- Minority regime press and media platforms cavil about the EU's supposed attempts at wishing to annex Northern Ireland and in doing so break apart the United Kingdom. Even the most jaundiced genuine brexiteer finds this accusation going a hyperbole too far.It's not 1938 and the Irish Border problematic isn't a re-run of the Sudetenland or Austria. Had the then still majority UK Tory government gone ahead and triggered Article 50 as was anticipated within hours of the EU referendum result,then all this would be speculative persiflage instead of which we're now stuck in someone else's nightmare scenario for us. The only rational course of action for this now Minority Regime would be to disengage from the EU's  Leave process and...

17 : Happy #Brexit New Year to Remoaners

The year draws to a close pretty much in the same state that it first opened 360 days ago. Whining,whingeing,cantankerous,obfuscating,disingenuous,blathering non sequiturs,otiose cant and vacuous platitudes  ad nauseam  being excreted from that prominent orifice on the faces of Remoaners that is usually located at the opposite end on the rest of us homo sapiens. The bogus #The3Million #OpenBritain #Labour et al have demonstrated amply that reason,common sense,logic and economic reality have no part to play in their deluded fantasies of what #brexit does or doesn't do. You'd probably have more success in trying explaining the workings of a digital camera to a peasant from the Middle Ages,than you would economic theory to the metropolitan elitist EU shills masquerading in their variety of pantomime costumes who're pretending they're not intellectually and economically subservient to and dependent upon the European Union for their existence. Capitalism 101 - an inc...

15: Brussels The Long Surrender of the UK by May

If nothing else, they are at least consistent and persistent. The following is gleaned from online media sites. " The European Union’s 27 remaining leaders have just voted unanimously to start the second phase of the Brexit negotiations with the U.K., meaning that discussions on a transition period are likely to start in the coming weeks. The two sides will begin work on the outlines of a trade deal after a summit in March. After endorsing the European Commission’s assessment from a week ago that U.K. and EU negotiators had made “sufficient progress” on priority separation issues, the leaders will publish a set of guidelines. to direct negotiators over the coming months. The commission is planning to unveil a more detailed position on the transition period on Wednesday, with the 27 governments scheduled to formally approve it at a meeting on Jan. 29. It will then be up to the U.K. to decide whether to accept the proposal wholesale or try to negotiate. Officials say it will...

14 : May channels Humpty Dumpty - Brexit Success means what she says it means.

The Referendum on whether the UK would choose to Remain within or choose to Leave the European Union was ineluctably flawed from its inception. Parliament voted to undertake to accept and implement the referendum's verdict whichever way the vote went.Of course,why wouldn't they? Except that nobody in the hallowed corridors of Westminster and Whitehall,not a single MP or civil servant nor any of their expert advisors had given the slightest passing thought nor consideration to the EURef. coming out with the verdict in favour of Leave. Nobody. Great events in History that mark a sea change in the fortune and destinies of Peoples and Nations tend to manifest themselves and occur more often through mis-steps and fortuitous accidents than meticulous planning,organisation and disciplined execution. The least mistake ridden,the least error prone, the least incompetent and idle of any given set of contending and mutually irreconcilable parties tends to be favoured by the driving,...

11 : Trump Trashes Special Relationship

It's really hard trying to keep a " straight face ", whenever something otherwise minor and insignificant gets shoved to the top of the MSM agenda for the day. President Trump retweeted links to some highly contentious video content which purported to show certain egregious acts perpetrated by islamic extremists. Of and by themselves the video footage are not particularly informative and are singularly devoid of any semblance of gravitas and credibility. Apparently Sharks have the ability to sense 1 globule of blood amid 25 million globules of water. It took no time at all for the full panoply of Corporate MSM and every social media platform under the sun to join in the feeding frenzy over what charitably might be described as the President's gaffe. What exacerbated the whole incident was that Trump directed his initial tweet at the UK Prime Minister,after having initially tweeted the wrong Theresa May.There followed,quite naturally a response and of course PO...

10 : Irish Border - Post-Brexit ,The Great Non-Issue

Image
The lamentable farrago over the UK's impending departure from the EU - aka the brexit negotiations - continues unabated. The UK domestic Remain campaign/Referendum verdict deniers are currently in the midst of throwing the kitchen sink at Brexit. Having already deployed the mendacious blackmail demands of the so-called " Divorce settlement " alongside the bogus lamentations and woefully insincere pleading of EU Citizens against the sensitive heartstrings of the May minority regime; the globalist plutocratic denizens of domestic metropolitan elitism and their Controllers in Brussels have now opened up a third front- that of the largely fictitious "problem" surrounding hypothetical difficulties envisaged around the Irish Border post- Brexit. Why is the failing minority Dublin regime stirring the proverbial merde at this time? The Irish Times lends an insight into the lickspittle grovelling demeanour of the bankrupt,inconsequential grubby little Irish state...

09 : Budget Day Disaster for May

Ceremony and tradition play the central role in the UK's parliamentary operations. The Chancellor of the Exchequer's perfunctory fiscal state of the nation speech is and has been for quite a long time now just that; ceremonial. The same government policies could as easily be outlined in bullet -point form and then voted on without all the accompanying Barnum & Bailey hoo-ha. The announcements are in any event of miniscule practical import and merely sustain that which is practically untenable. Facts trump wishful thinking.And once the customary flim-flammery had been tossed to one side, the sober economic analyses zeroed in to what little meat there was on the bone. The UK's GDP was still in the doldrums at the Financial Crash level of 2008 and wages are expected to continue in their parlous state for perhaps another decade. The anti - democratic, referendum verdict denying, brexit-sabotaging majority of MPs used the Budget day contretemps to inveigh further a...

07 : May Pays Danegeld to EU

The following was gleaned from  twitter -   Donald Tusk ‏ Verified account   @ eucopresident   20h 20 hours ago   Discussed with PM @ theresa_may the calendar of # Brexit talks. Only if UK makes progress by early December, will I be ready to propose new guidelines on transition and future relations at December # EUCO . The current UK withdrawal negotiations with the EU are predicated on three points being met before any negotiations on the future trading relations between the UK and EU can commence. These three points relate to the status,( some might argue legally bogus in any event,but in the interests of brevity we'll let that pass for now,) of EU citizens sojourning in the UK; the status of the Irish border post-brexit and more substantially,the amount demanded by the EU as a " financial settlement " aka " Divorce Bill " in tabloid speak. Tusk is to all intents and purposes a jumped up, strutting,venal,little tinpot fleamarket P...
