Andy Burnham shoots himself in the foot as soon as he draws his pistol

Andy Burnham has already  demonstrated  that he is an insincere  career politician who hasn’t  got any real ideas for change. Already  we have witnessed backward tracking on EU membership, a reinforcement of the  same fiscal  policies that we currently  have and very vague outlining of watered  down notions of public ownership amounting to just tougher regulations.

Voters don’t like to be used as a Stepping Stone for ambition

My Message to Wes Streeting

This is my message  to Wes Streeting

Dear Mr Streeting  I am supportive of your ideas about re- joining the European Union some time in the future however  I do not support  the idea of having another referendum about the issue. In my opinion  this is just about hedging your bets and seeing what will happen. This is entirely what David Cameron did and we all know how that worked out for him.

How can Labour defeat Farage?

Following on from the devastating results in the local elections showing huge  gains for Reform, the question  is how can Labour defeat Farage in the next General Election? Currently the Labour Party are divided on this issue which has given rise to speculation about the leadership of Sir Kier Starmer.  Currently the Labour Party is noticeably divided on the issue of the Party leadership. Many in the Labour Party now see Starmer as a dead duck and no hoper. They are suggesting  that Starmer  should be making a timetable to step down as Party leader. Variously hopes are being pinned on various candidates  such as Rayner, Burnham or Wes Streeting. However would just a change in leadership be enough to stem the tide of voters currently flooding towards Farage’s Reform? Or is the issue more complicated than that or has politics just become just a cult of personality? Also we ask why has Starmer become so unpopular with voters and why are voters making assumptions about the capability of Farage to make positive changes where other politicians have failed?

Only a chump like Trump could make this mess

Only a chump like Trump could make this mess. He’s  managed to make everyone worse off. I don’t  think anyone on the planet will be unaffected. Trump’s  actions in Iran will have a huge effect on all the world’s  economies except Russia : who will actually  benefit from this huge gaff. What is worse is that just as it looked like matters were improving  with the reopening of the Straits of Hermuz then Trump manages to sabotage that too. Trump and Netanyahu are just managing to damage the world. What a pair of prats.

Why was Trump so interested in Hungary’s elections?

So why was Trump so interested  in the elections in Hungary. Don’t  you find it strange that J D Vance was sent to Hungary  to try and improve Viktor Orban’s chances of re-election. Given the friendship between Orban and Putin it is worth examining why America should  openly support an ally of Putin who has openly voted against European measures to help in the Ukrainian war effort against Putin.

Not impressed by Artemis ii

My generation supposedly  saw man land on the moon in 1969 so why should I be impressed by Artemis II? Almost 60 years has elapsed since that Apollo 11 mission in 1969 so what has changed in space travel? Well as far as I can see not much. By now people in my generation might have come to expect huge leaps in technology.  Think of the Walkman to the ipod. Vinyl to cds. Mobile phones to watches and computers and ipads and the tech behind apps for our phones. Things have moved on in technology in ways that was unimaginable 60 years ago. By now we might have been forgiven for expecting space travel to be as we came to expect in Startrek.

Thatcher misled and mis-sold privatizations in the 80’s and 90’s

Margaret Thatcher misled and mis-sold the privatisations her government’s brought in during the 80’s and 90’s. Current governments should be exploring the legality of these privatizations and seeking the reverse them  by taking these matters to court if necessary. Additionally, privatisations have had lasting negative impacts on public services. There have been costs to the consumer and detrimental effects on the enivornment and particularly the aquatic enviroments. There have been negative effects on tourism and the leisure industries. Privatisations have had a massive effect on the UK and the stench of Thatcher still pervades in Britain with subsequent governments failing to reverse the negative harm of her privatisations. Thatcher mis-sold privatisations by making claims about them that proved to be untruthful.

What World Leaders and journalists would like to say about Trump: but are too scared to do so.

Following on from President Trump’s visit to Davos there appears to have been a code of silence amongst World  Leaders and journalists to hide what everyone is thinking but none dare say: that Trump  appears to be unhinged or just an idiot. His style of  diplomacy is based on tantrums and being loose mouthed like a petulant child. He acts as if he were infirm and on the borderline of sanity.

Because Trump is so similar to Putin, he is of no use to Ukraine

With the issues of Greenland  and Venezuela in the balance Trump has shown that he thinks along similar lines to Putin. Trump is willing to show force to acquire what he wants in a similar way to Putin. This is especially apparent regarding the issue of Greenland. We have yet to see if Trump will use force to acquire it but at he moment he implying that that is an option. We are seeing that Trump is as much of an Imperialist as Putin and both are equally  ruthless. Because  Trump is so similar to Putin he is of no use to the Ukraine  in peace negotiations with Russia. Trump’s  recent actions expose him as just as much of an Imperialist as Putin which rules him out as being a useful peace negotiator with Putin, whom he obviously admires. Secondly Trump’s  deployment and involvement with ICE is similar to the role of the Russian President and his control over the police.  Like Putin’s  police force ICE fulfill or are beginning  to fulfill the same role as a private army checking dissidence amongst the civilian population and providing punishments coming directly from the President. The purpose of the police and ICE is civilian control and ideological control and monitoring.

So if Trump is going after illegitimate dictators is Putin next?

We all know why Trump went after Meduro in Venezuela, primarily  for US access to oil. However there has also been suggestions  that the action that Trump’s  intervention  in Venezuela was because  the President was an  illegitimate dictator.  If this is the case and Trump was taking objections to illegitimate  dictators around the globe. So if Trump is going after illegitimate dictators is Putin next on the list?

Or is Greenland going to be Trump’s next target?

Is Greenland going to be Trump’s  next target? Any attack or invasion  of Greenland is likely to trigger article 5 of NATO.  Because America is a key part of NATO  any attack on Greenland is likely  to mean the partial break up of NATO. This is likely to make Putin  very happy because it’s  something  that Putin has been aiming for and now Trump is likely  to doing it for him and handing it to him on a plate. This supports my statements regarding Trump as a Russian Asset, who is being  instructed by Putin himself.
