Voices from the Past in Politics

It's interesting that various voices from past governments keep cropping up or even worse, getting jobs in current governments.

Notwithstanding Kier Starmer, who is a left-over from the Blair government (why anyone who identifies themselves as of the left would vote for anyone that had anything to do with that government I do not know). But I digress. Starmer is a voice and an ideology from that government. He's in charge and it's hard to argue that things will be different under him.

We'll get the same Globalist, don't care about the poor guy policies that Blair instigated back in the Nineties. I will not vote for Starmer or a government run by him, because I know that government will not work in the interests of the people that vote it into power. It will be instead favour corporate sponsors and supra-national undemocratic organisations.

The Tories are no better. They've just brought "Blair Mk2" David Cameron back into the cabinet. Another globalist, who is now foreign secretary. A soothing voice for the globalists after the wobble of Liz Truss being voted in by the Tory party members. Truss was dispatched by the media with suspiciously extreme haste in order to anoint another globalist in the form of Rishi Sunak.

So we now have David Cameron back on the News, telling us we need another war. In a replay of the Libya playbook, we're now bombing the Huthi rebels in Yemen. And we know how well that went for Libya, the West and David Cameron. It wasn't the spectacularly successful military campaign the media made it out to be.

Of course the dark horse is Blair himself. The globalist warmonger-in-chief with the dodgy dossier is still around, every so often popping up and giving his opinion. As if we needed his advice.

I just wonder, why can't these people slip into retirement quietly? There used to be in the past an unwritten rule about making comment about current government policy. In other words keeping quiet.

This is just one more indicator of the globalist elites and how they rule over us, rather than governments ruling FOR us. 

I'm really sick of it. I'm sick of hearing their voices, sick of their policies that favour global corporations, sick of their endless warmongering that benefits no-one, sick of their endless virtue signalling at the expense of the people that put them in power.

David Cameron: Has he gone too far?

I suspect that David Cameron's latest plans to reform his party's politics may be a step too far for many in his local constituency parties.

Its a set of nice proposals which the public at large (including myself) would agree with (especially as picking ordinary people with real-life experience is something I heartily agree with), but I just can't see the local Conservative rank-and-file accepting just any old tom dick or harry as their local candidate, nor allowing anyone and everyone to have a say who gets nominated.

I think the problem with any prospective parliamentary candidate now is that they are going to have to be so squeaky clean, they won't have the breadth of life experience to make the right choices.

Take myself for instance: Initially my CV looks good:

Never been in trouble with the Police, never taken drugs, Father of a disabled son who knows the difficulties of getting support, with a wife who is a carer for autistic adults who knows the value of public service, a petrol-head that wants to continue the freedom of current transport levels in an environmental way, but without clobbering the motorist in extra tax (see my thoughts on hydrogen technology), a person who remembers the mess of the seventies, got made redundant at the start of the Thatcher era, but remembers the enabling network the Tories put in place to drag myself up to be an I.T. contractor, only to have Labour come in, make things harder and wind up unemployed, looking after my disabled son who Labour can't support despite pumping extra billions into the system, I believe in equality both racial and sexual, I believe in empowerment and enablement.

However, my bad points are: Close links to alternative sexuality, i.e the BDSM lifestyle, with an ex-wife ready to supply details to waiting newspapers. I'm a global-warming sceptic, I swear far too much, I have an annoying, whiny voice (although that didn't stop Ken Livingstone did it?), I'm for the legalisation of prostitution, because I believe feminism and equality for women means they should have the choice and empowerment to do anything they want, not to be classed as or forced into being victims all the time.

But you see my point: those that have a breadth of experience and lifestyle choices aren't going to be squeaky clean. They will have a fair bit of baggage that will be picked over by the press.

In the end it boils down to leadership. I just wonder if Dave Cameron has that leadership quality to rise up to the challenge, grow a pair and really stick with this proposal.

Hmm, maybe I should apply. I'd like Sir Peter Viggers' ward in Gosport please, as it's just down the road from me. I down't own any ducks, just a few tropical fish, which don't cost and arm and a leg to keep. I rent a house, so the ACA would come in really handy for getting me on the property ladder.
