We now live in a country where our entire political class thinks it is worth sacrificing Britain’s economic future on behalf of a “Nationalist Socialist” (Actual “■■■■”) foreign regime that isn’t our ally, isn’t a member of NATO fighting a country that is a nuclear superpower that we simply cannot afford to have as our enemy.
Yet it is done, and “Newbie” Liz Truss intends to spend further clips of £5,000,000,000 at a time prolonging Zelensky’s futile efforts against the increasingly desperate (we’re told) efforts of Putin’s Russia bearing down upon them there…
At the end of all this, even if the “Best case sceario” is achieved (Putin hands himself over to the Hague, where he can be injected behind the eyeball in his remand cell the moment he says “I’ll be defending myself”) WE, Britain - lose and never get what we “invested” back again. There isn’t going to be some friendly EU beaurocrat installed in the Kremlin to turn what used to be “Russia” into some kind of winding-down energy giant state that’ll once again burn their own furniture to keep warm at winter - something we are going to find out how to do before long…
The entire fertilizer shortage, future crop failures in the Eurozone, High Gas and Oil prices, no taxes on any oil giant whatsoever, rising national insurances despite NO access to the NHS for those who’ve already paid in for years - all comes down to “how much money we waste abroad”…
It isn’t all about Putin not achieving “loser’s consent” though…
We’re also wasting £13,000,000,000 on “foreign aid”, most of which goes towards luxuries for “friendly” foreign dictators, such as Ricep Erdogan, who has managed a pretty good double game himself, allied with Putin AND NATO at the same time, taking billions off the UK and the EU to “slow down the flow of illegals” - which doesn’t seem to have worked at all…
“Injunctions” even from this new Home Secretary Bravermann we have, allegedly more “right wing” than even Preti Patel she replaced - are clearly not working, either.
To coin a phrase, “If you’re not prepared to crack some heads when the chips are down, the only loser at the table - is YOU”.
People think “If you don’t ever give loser’s consent, you cannot ever be a loser”. Wot a load of rubbish!
Our future pensions, which we’ve not touched, not gambled away, - are about to BE gambled away by a “Margin Call” on those pension funds who’ve been stupid enough to buy very-low yielding bonds on margin… I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again: If you lose YOUR pension “Maxwell Mirror Group Style” - you don’t get it back again just because “It’s not fair!” any more than Mirror Group pensioners did when Maxwell ended up face down dead in the Atlantic, no doubt bumped off by the Deep State of 1991, to shield themselves from banking liabilities that would arise should the connection ever be made that "How come Maxwell was able to pledge money not his to trade short currency options on margin, which caused the huge losses that brought down the mirror group pension fund, but not strangely the bank that permitted the ILLEGAL trades that should and could have been “busted” by the derivatives exchange at the expense of the errant broker bank for Maxwell’s trading in exchange for “immunity for grand prosecution for fraud”.
The Public, then as now - get to lose - consent given, or not. Billionaires may be bumped off, but they don’t languish in jail unless they are no longer billionires, of course.
Was Epstein murdered or extracted? - Either way, the official line “He killed himself in his cell” holds as much water as a string bag.
Billionaires - are only disposed of when it creates a fire break between BANKS and the Public baying for blood, over the latest of what are now very much everyday public swindles.
The big questions for the next five years - will be:
Which politicians get jailed for killing people, stealing public money, giving public money to actual criminal factions, waging illegal wars, hiding the assets of foreign criminals, and of course spending public money covering it all up… Expected Answer? - NONE. Any journalist with any reputation coming up with an expose - can expect to “accidentally fall under a tube train” which is the British equivalent of “Falling of a Balcony” in Russia…
“Conspiracy Theorists” who used to be ignored are now persecuted more than actual terrorists… Hmm…
NONE of this, however - can happen without consent. NOT the consent of the Majority, nay MORAL majority - but rather the consent of the creeping, insidious, godless, truthless “Center Left” that have been in the ascendant on this planet for some decades now. It seems as memory of “Wartime” fades, so with it, as the last veterans of the last world conflict all die off - we see areplacement of “Patriotism” with instead “passive consent” where it is only possible to rob the public, murder key players, keep actual guilty millionaires immune from prosecution forever.
Bad things happen to good people - because the passive left permits it.
There was no outrage when the Center Left got rid of Corbyn, no outrage when the Republicans waved through the fraud that got rid of Trump, and no outrage when the Remainer Conservatives got rid of Boris despite not having a clue what to do next, nor do right where Boris had got it completely wrong…
“Lies” are not important in politics. You’ve “Lied” the moment you didn’t deliver, and it becomes apparent - you never intended to deliver.
Blair lied about the need to kill a million Iraqi civililians to get “one bad dude dictator” - which was a 100% successful operation, providing you thought it was worth it, no one YOU knew or loved got “killed” for the sake of a handful of world leader’s “Ego”. “I only did what I thought was right”.
Boris lied about “Getting Brexit Done”. He stopped trying the moment he got the full majority he needed to complete Brexit, and flipped over to his new Wife’s cause of “Busting this country off Fossil Fuels” instead, which instantly made us hostil to the notion of Cheap fossil fuel imports from Putin’s Russia…“I know, let’s come up with a reason to hate Putin, this guy who’s killed less people YOU care about than Peter Sutcliff” don’t forget…
Perspective Perspective… Perspective…
We’re told to expect even higher gas prices next April now…
Odd that: The wholesale price of Gas has been steadly dropping these last few months, so the issue really should be “Howcome that drop in price - isn’t being passed on, even “trickledown” passed on will do…!!”

In short, we get lied to all the time, we then get told "Starmer is 30 points ahead in the polls, the Tories will be down to double-digits of seats if the election were held now.
How can THAT be remotely truth though■■?
It assumes at very least that former Tory voters will switch straight to Starmer… Wot? - Lifetime Tory voters as well? Pull the other one!!
It assumes that Starmer has a different vision for Britain’s future than “Promising more of the same”, and then blaming Tory cuts for putting any future NOT Austerity out of HIS reach as PM…
Right now, I’d vote for Keir Starmer - if he came up with some “Rank Breaking” policy changes of his own. Taxing Energy companies on it’s own - isn’t the answer, of the Tories would have done this, and saved their own skins months ago…
Rank Breaking - Corbyn has said it… “Make peace with Putin’s Russia”. In addition, “Let’s cut Ukraine loose, we’re not in the Eu any more, it’s not our problem, we cannot afford to have that prescence on the international stage any longer”.
By pretending we’re still a bigshot nation in the world - we’re hurling towards oblivion at an ever-faster pace.
“Borrowing” only works - if you borrow to build something that turns a profit in the end.
I can’t remember the last time we did that in this country.
By rights, lenders to this country - could and maybe should have objected to lending us further funds to wage stupid proxy wars that we cannot ever win…
…Who’s to say that is exactly what is happening right now?
China, lender to Britain - doesn’t approve of us helping Ukraine against their ally Putin - so they are winding down their bond purchases, and THAT in fact is the reason that interest rates are rising faster than this country’s banks can cope with right now…
There might be a house price crash indeed, but if you see a £250,000 house fall to £50,000 in the next five years - no young person will be able to go “Yippee - Affordable housing at last!” - because that hapless idiot who votes Labour and hopes their parents will leave them their house soon - will find the mortgage payments on £50,000 @ 18% (where rates were in 1992) is £750 per month interest only mind… You’ll be asked by the lending bank “Can you afford £750 per month payments?” and you say “YES” - How come you didn’t buy that house @ £250,000 five years ago, when you could have had a 5 year fixed for lower payments than that then?
"Oh, I thought house prices were gonna drop, and I built up my deposit for years, not realizing that the price would rise above what I could borrow, because I wasn’t prepared to take the plunge, and just buy a freaking house when I actually wanted to live in one!"
Our politicians - continue to lie to us of course.
Anything they have lost control of - likely they didn’t control it in the FIRST place.
“Wrong Decisions” that are costing lives and our entire country’s future - don’t get “U-Turned” quite as easily as the weakest PM we’ve ever had…
The Tories - get to OWN that - because they didn’t HAVE to boot Boris, they didn’t HAVE to switch leaders multiple times without calling an election, and they WON’T reform our political system now in time - before a future post-apocalypse revolution changes it FOR us.
A country that has lost a third of it’s population - is easier to govern, BUT is rather more insistent on “instant gratification” FROM that government as well.
The ultimate END to “Jam Tomorrow” poltics - destroy the future, so there IS no tomorrow!
