To see how silly it will get............the one success of Brexit, in the eyes of the Brexiters, was our Vaccine roll out. But in the eyes of this batshit group Covid was a hoax.....where do they go from there ?
As the Tory & Republic Right becomes progressively more and more extreme on both sides of the pond, these extreme free market types are taking on more of the authoritarian anti migrant agenda of the fascist right. It's getting harder to differentiate them. Who would have thought that Bannon would have even heard of of the UK's repeated law breaking, corrupt and nasty little rabble rouser that is Tommy Robinson ( aka Stephen Christopher Yaxley-Lennon ). This leader of skin head thugs has a poncey middle class , double barrelled name and is listed as being worth £2m , mainly from donations from the duped, with house held in the name of his partner. Again, he has that in common with Steve Bannon who was fingered for spending the "Build the wall" money on yachts, fancy watches and high living. They have that in common with Putin and his inner circle, all very predictable.
Of course, Truss didn't raise so much as a grimace when Bannon mentioned Yaxley Lennon as a hero? She knows what side her focaccia is olive oiled on and it's a bunch of right wing yanks who have barely heard of her, but have money to splurge on promoting their ideas the world over.
Yaxley-Lennon is the inheritor of the remains of the National Front that imploded and formed the British Movement, which also imploded and left the EDL. It's largely the same people and reminds me of leaving Grammar School in the 70's, to walk home through a National Front stronghold of east enders resettled in Debden, Essex on the Central Line. Sometimes having to dodge bricks thrown by skinheads, which were never dealt with. Are there any lower people that exist in this world? I doubt it.
Hmm... The uselessness of Brexit is apparent to anyone with reasonable thinking skills. But FPTP elections in the UK can be won with less than 30% of the popular vote, and as recent political events have shown there's a residuum of maybe 30% of voters who lack any kind of filter for bolleaux. So I'm not so optimistic, but that is my character rather than really how it is...
In truth the British "Right" and the American "Right" could hardly be more different. There is no freedom in Britain because there isn't now, and never has been "freedom" in any real sense. What there has been is the right to cheat, lie, steal, without consequences. There is no meaningful Constitution, or Fundamental Law, in Britain. The unwritten Constitution is not worth the paper it isn't written on.
The decision to flood Britain with 3rd world immigrants, and it was a deliberate decision, was, and is clearly an effort to destroy the British working class.
If it had been done to alleviate any shortage of labor it would not have been simultaneously carried with the trafficking of thousands of white working class children to the colonies.
As for Tommy Robinson, he is the greatest Englishman since Cromwell. The attacks against him by the establishment, and the insults seen here, are the product of that great English curse: Snobbery.
The unending series of terrible decisions made by the corrupt, incompetent, malevolent ruling elite in Britain, in which we can include the current Labor Party, are leading to complete societal breakdown.
About the only good decision made was that to join the EEC. Re-joining will be impossible.
Look at net migration; the import, per year, of a million or more useless 3rd world illiterates and innumerates (in their own languages), is accompanied by the rush to leave of 500,000 or so of the few remaining native Britons with professional, technical, or trade qualifications.
And for those of you looking forward to that establishment stooge Keir Starmer and his bench of utter nonentities taking over the govt. The only rational reaction to that happening is dread.

A triumph of the British deep state over the European deep state?

Truss is as 'off' as Trump, who remarked (24 Feb,): “There’s no cognitive problem. If there was, I’d know about it.” I can say no more.

TG my grandchildren are Americans.
Calls immigrants ‘illiterates’, and yet can’t spell ‘Labour Party’. The irony…
Is that it?
Where I live "Labour" is spelt Labor.
And for those of you looking forward to that establishment stooge Keir Starmer and his bench of utter nonentities taking over the govt. The only rational reaction to that happening is dread.
