What pundits write reflects on themselves

At N.O. last evening, as the story was breaking, I posted a series of tweets, of which these were the last few:




Subsequent reflection and further statements by various people put a slightly different complexion on it ... many such statements say much more about the pundit, which raises the question ... what hope Britain, if that's what they think and more importantly, have forgotten about in just a few short years?

These are some of the more astute subsequent comments:







If Nigel Farage truly thinks Johnson was for Brexit, then he was more naive than I thought when he sold out TBP to the Remoaner Tories.

Oh such short memories too. It was never Brexit, it was a pig's breakfast called Withdrawal Agreements 1, 2 and 3, started by May and completed by Johnson ... it sold Brexit out.

The people of Britain were so politically obtuse, in otherwise intelligent people, as to buy it and deliver Johnson an 80 seat majority.

Why are they so politically stupid? Because they're locked into the same go blue, go red, go blue, go red logic which allowed Blair/Brown multiple terms, which also ignored all 1975 warning signs and signed up to what would become the EU ... what was always going to become the EU in all its horror.

And that go blue, go red mentality is fed and controlled by the MSM.  Thing is, I'm but a mildly astute reader of politics but the signposts have been on every corner. With this technology at hand, there is very little excuse for a supposedly politically sophisticated society to be so bleedin' blind ... it's really a sad commentary on the state of politics in the west overall.

They returned Jackboot Ardern multiple times downunder? Single point of truth Ardern?

What percentage of the voting public are both avid keeper-uppers with events from the perspective of this post for example? 10%? 15%? 20%? I don't mean what percentage are disgruntled ... I mean what percentage are aware and vote (or not) accordingly?

If Farage is that naive, then what chance Britain?

  1. It's Dame Jackboot Ardern now. Rewards go to the foot soldiers of the enemy class.

    1. Mrs Ardern is good example of what I have contended for many years; people are not given titles for doing good things for others, they are given titles for doing bad things to people.
      And when I see or hear someone who has a knighthood or a peerage, my first thought is what wickedness have they been up to and for whom?

  2. Bodger the Johnson will be off to join his brother in the HoL. Nigel the Gas-lighter was and always will be controlled opposition.

  3. Rumour has it that Johnson and Farage will join forces to create a new party. Any suggestions as to what the alliance will be called? Borage?

  4. JH: What can I say? I just agree.

  5. I really do wonder just how well so many of the armchair politicians would have done themselves.

    I find the Bojo/Trump comparison apt. Both didn’t, couldn’t operate alone, they relied (naively it tuns out) on others they believed were on their side, but were actually the enemy (the same ones now clamouring to crucify them for actions they’d demanded and forced through). And we'll just gloss over the fact that the 'entire' establishment (you know, those you'd rely on to actually implement anything), from senior civil servants down to your local councillor are ... left-wing fanatics, actively sabotaging and conspiring against them.

    Boris was never as fervent a Brexiter as some of us wanted, but at least he ‘was’ on our side, and … then (conveniently, and purely coincidentally) came Covid. He patently initially disagreed with lock-downs, etc. but was obviously ‘encouraged’ to toe the party line (and do what Sunak et al wanted, and later blamed him for). Notice how, post his “illness” (and more importantly his sequestration and 'treatment') he did a complete 180 on almost every policy, became effectively a sock-puppet for the globalists, and wasn't allowed to choose what he had for breakfast let alone government policy (he, predictably, is now blamed for)? I do so wonder just specifically what the ‘threat’ was.

    I'll just point out that it wasn’t ‘just’ (or even mainly) the Tories partying whilst confining the rest of us, and the “information”, “advice”, application and enforcement, as well as ‘filtering’ of any coverage about results was by … Labour supporting civil servants/bureaucrats and media.

    It’s easy to blame both Boris and Trump, but being honest, I’m surprised they survived at all (and not just as political scapegoats, but alive), let alone managed what little they did achieve. That they are being attacked and vilified is actual evidence that they, at least, weren’t part of the plan.

    That Boris resigned indicates, to me, that whatever ‘hold’ over him they had, has now waned in power, or that in already blaming exclusively ‘him’ for everything ‘they’ forced through, has left him with nothing to lose (and even his new handler’s ... I mean wife's influence is waning).

    The simple truth is that, except for the token distraction (Hancock), the only ones leaving government are those ‘not’ involved. All of them, government, opposition and every civil servant are corrupt and corrupted beyond anything we can imagine (and if you think what has been admitted to date is as bad as it gets, ‘you’ are the naive one. You ain’t seen nothing yet).


    Whither a new Cromwell (or Fawkes)? Either would drastically improve the political landscape in what is left of this country.

  6. Not honest another blinkered armchair politician. Johnson blocked peace talks in Ukraine in 2022. No war escalations during Trump's tenure. No similarities there. I haven't the time to add more.

    Cromwell and Fawkes were both failures.

    Nobody can claim the simple truth because not one of us knows what goes on behind the closed doors of politics. We can find facts after events but until then all we have is opinions.

  7. Why is it that Trump, Johnson and Sturgeon are being outmanoeuvred politically like this? Like then or hate them, you have to ask why would that sort of person be actively attacked? And why now, all at the same time? Is it because they have independent thought, or is it a narcissistic streak that made them think they were untouchable? In all cases they appear to have been given enough rope to hang themselves. Shame on them for pulling on that rope and not seeing the consequences.

  8. The rumours of this new party are interesting. The name National Conservatism sounds a bit too much like National Socialist though. Is this just trolling? How far do you take it? Get Hugo Boss to design merch? Is this just a two fingered salute to the far left that call moderates N@zis?
