Just Who is in Control of The UK?

The shambles in Parliament the other day over the Government's welfare reforms are another indication that the Government of the day aren't really in charge of the country. 

I mean we vote them in and they have ideas about what policy changes they want to make, but when it comes down to it that policy doesn't actually materialise.

I mean, who would have thought a LABOUR government would trash the winter fuel payments? Who thought they would go on to try and push through welfare reforms in order to cut welfare payments?

Then we had the spectacle of Rachael Reeves, the Chancellor of the Exchequer on the front bench crying.

We've seen this play out before. With Brexit, we had years of successive attempts to either ignore or reverse the referendum.

We had it with Liz Truss as well.

We also had it with Boris During Covid. The pandemic protocols set out before Covid were rapidly thrown out the window once civil service "advisers" got involved. 

So, what is going on?

The Civil Service. It has now departed from advising the government of the day, to being the de-facto government. 

That's why you get, despite changes at the top of political policy, ideology, identity, and personality, the same polices enacted by "Government" (Big G).

So that's why you get the Labour party trying to cut welfare, why you get the Tories trying to increase it. Why you get different ideologies enacting essentially the same policies.

The civil service is now the government. No matter what you do, the unelected officials in the civil service control policy and legislative progress.

The supreme court is always going to side with the civil service, even against the government. So successive government's will be blocked from changing policy, as they have been ever since Tony Blair (that wrecker of British constitutionality) created institutions like the Supreme Court without separation of the executive and legislative processes. 

You can't have a Government unable to institute policy they have been voted into power to enact.

But we are where we are and Rachael Reeves ran head-first into the brick wall of the civil service hegemony. Hance the tears at PMQs. Kier Starmer the sociopath has a more legalistic head on his shoulders and I assume has a more pragmatic and less enthusiastic attitude to the road blocks put in place thwarting government policy.

God help Reform when they get in power. There has to be a wholesale bonfire of Blairist encumbrances put upon the business of government. I wish them well and hope they have a thumping majority so they can enact primary legislation to gut the civil service, disband the supreme court, remove ourselves from the ECHR and other such organisations that deign to put themselves above an elected government.  

The Rudder is Lashed in Place and The Boat That is The UK is Heading Straight For The Rocks.

Okay, so in the previous governments voted into power, we had leaders that set a course for the rocks. Yes, we were quite a way away and there was time to vote in a new Captain to turn the ship around. 

The crew voted for Boris, who was co-opted by a Siren and he went all Eco-Loony. It's amazing the power a vagina has over an ex-public Schoolboy.

Then the Tory faithful voted Liz Truss to be the next disruptor. She found out the ship's wheel on the bridge wasn't actually connected to anything and the officers were ignoring the votes of the crew and eventually threw the Captain overboard.

Now brave Sir Kier tried to reform welfare. He's in the wrong party for that. And he's in the wrong version of the wrong party to boot. A party filled with Neo-Communists will not vote to end the fleecing of the slightly less poor to fund the poor.

And so the ship that is the UK continues to serenely sail towards the rocks. 

There are no savings from welfare to be had. The Labour party has seen to that. Government borrowing continues to rise, national debt continues to rise and the repayments on those debts continue to rise. 

There is no IVA process the government can use to renegotiate the terms of their loans. Inflation cannot reduce the severity of the debt. 

So what is the next step for the government?

There are very few options. National government doesn't control local spending, like potholes. There isn't much to save there anyway. 

We've cut the armed force back past the point they make an effective fighting force. 

The rear savings can be had in the cost of Whitehall itself. The various ministries, the quangos, the think-tanks and all the associated clutter that has over the decades accreted onto the hull of the good ship UK

All those barnacles of bullshittery need to be scraped of the hull and cast to the Ocean depths. Leaders do not need focus groups, they do not need fake charities to massage public opinion. They know what needs to be done and they inform the officers and crew in no uncertain terms that's what will be happening, that will be the course we set, those are the commands of the Captain and he expects them to be carried out. No mutiny from the officers, no dissent. 

We can save money, but it takes a leader, a confident leader to take advice from experts, form an opinion and chart a course away from the rocks. It takes a leader to eschew public opinion, to sack the focus groups and think-tanks to not care what people think about them and just do what needs to be done.

Kier Starmer is not that leader. He is tied to an ideology, a extreme socialist ideology, he does not contain the mental capacity, the acuity and flexibility of thought to turn himself away from the rocks, let alone convince the crew to turn the ship around. He does not have what it takes to lead this country away from the rocks.

I've seen the future. It consists of road blocks, rifles and fights for survival as areas fight for resources as the country collapses. The preppers need to prep, the planners need to plan. The supporters of the Judeo-Christian status quo of UK governance need to start making plans on how to support that ideology and keep it dominant within the UK.

They need to start making contacts now, need to make support plans now, to stockpile equipment now. 

When the collapse of the UK comes, it will be swift. The people outside the UK with a vested interest in keeping it the way it is need to have all their ducks in a row so that when it starts to go pear-shaped, there will be people in the UK with information on where the weapons are, how to access them and who to distribute them to. 

Literally the assets need to be in place inside the UK before it goes bad, or they need to be no more than a day away from being shipped into the UK.
