Perfect example of shifting positions

Just as with real science, one’s positions need to adjust, one’s alliances over time. The core eternals, e.g. The Ten Commandments, the Beatitudes etc. stay the same and underpin “The West” … that is, we treat one another ethically, civilly … but human alliances depend on positions and voting records.

This is also why I for one am not into Political Parties, nor Cross Based Individual Denominations … criticising each one by one. In the case of the Uniparty, Tory branch, when I read today’s Daily Sceptic, bearing in mind that the soon to be Lord Toby runs it, and also bearing in mind this article heading and byline:

Kemi or Nigel: Who is Right?

By Anonymous IT Reporter

… firstly, the headline is expressed as a question, an old journo trick … I should know … then the old trick of the “anonymous writer” … this article is already showing signs of mendacity, of slyness and I’d guess that it would pretend to be “evenhanded” on the surface, an “honest attempt” at getting at “the truth of the matter”, whilst at the same time saying that because of doubts over Reform, “Nigel” might “clear it all up” by doing this:

Here at the Daily Sceptic we would be very interested to hear from the developer of the software as to what it actually does. One way to resolve this would be for Reform to open source that software. It is very likely in a repository on GitHub – just make it public (remove the secrets first guys, obvs). And proof of deployment would be good too.

Yes, you’d like that, Mr. Tory, whilst at the same time continuing to conceal your own and how Badenoch knew something … or didn’t. Also how in South Thanet, the boxes had not been opened until after 2 a.m. but at 11:30 p.m., a Tory spokesman was able to tell the MSM exactly who had won and roughly by how much.

Now for Nigel … clearly going for the PMship and that gong … there was also the little matter of selling out The Brexit Party to the Tories. On the other hand, he’s upped Reform membership wonderfully so far … but so have Rupert and Lee.

This post title and opening mentioned shifting positions and science. In science, one is always open to new data to be evaluated … ditto in politics. As things come to light, positions tweak, even marginally shift on the way Parties operate … but never on core verities which are part of what make us The West.
