Lord Frost Speaks
2024-05-17
Lord Frost is the man who was perhaps most central to actually getting us out of the clammy embrace of the European Union. As such he has a track record which demands some respect.
OK, our exit was "negotiated" in probably the worst possible way, but I believe that aspect of the process wasn't within his brief.
I suppose that many hope or have faith that Lord Frost is not a typical politician, but is perhaps a more traditional politician for whom his responsibilities to the peoples of these isles matters. We need all the help we can get, even from politicians within the system, so perhaps we should wish more powers to his elbow.
None of which is to say that I would expect him (if elected) to make much difference - the forces of darkness seem to be too far embedded within the woodwork of our institutions for one man to overthrow, and overthrow does seem to be what we need.
Still, what do I know? Never say

Scott Ritter - the EU Crumbling Begins?
2024-04-07
No, he's not talking about the military situation, but the economic situation. Money talks, and lack of money suffocates.
Fascinating stuff, and entirely logical - it's obvious that Europe needs affordable reliable power, so... sanctions on Russia are a disastrous own goal. How to wriggle out?
And some still want the UK to rejoin ..?!

Nigel on Nuclear, Politics, and More
2024-01-12
Nigel Farage reviews the rapidly developing energy scene, starting with the UK's remarkable conversion to emphasising the development of nuclear power.
Power is the one product that inevitably underpins our modern civilisation, without which that civilisation as we know it would collapse like a wind turbine in a gale.
Of course power cannot be divorced from politics, which is becoming increasingly fractious in Europe, where the populations are becoming unthinkably more "populist", and elsewhere.

Agricultural Transition Plan 2024
2024-01-10
From the Ministerial Foreword by the Rt Hon Steve Barclay:
"I have learnt that farming is fundamental to the UK’s rural economy, the environment and of course our food security"
"... I am setting out the biggest upgrade to farming schemes since the UK has had the freedom to design our own schemes"
We voted "Leave" in 2016.
The original Agricultural Transition Plan was published in 2020.
By comparison, Covid struck in January-ish 2020, the Coronavirus Act 2020 (348 pages) had received the Royal Assent by July 2020.
"... we need to see universal adoption of farming regulatory standards and at least 70% of farmers

Whither UK Politics Now?
2023-11-21
As per usual, or even more strongly than usual, many view the current state of British politics with dismay.
The Tories are haemorrhaging support, but few believe that Sir Keir would make a better fist of running the country.
Clearly some "outside-the-box" thinking is required, and I believe I may have hit upon the exact solution that would lead the nation beyond the current political impasse - and solve the Tories' "red wall" conundrum into the bargain!
Difficult times require difficult measures, but if we are to unite around a revised political settlement then all parties will need to share the pain for the greater good. So without further ado let me put forward a truly different proposal that will bring stability to our national institutions of government whilst also healing old

Post Brexit Review with Nigel
2023-11-21
Nigel Farage with a succinct review of Brexit as it has (and hasn't) unfolded.
He rightly points up the problem of getting our politicians in Parliament to actually both represent and implement the will of the people.
Of course he doesn't touch on the reasons why they don't, so until we can get a proper handle on that, it's going to be business as usual. Still, as far as it goes, it's a fair summary.

Old Model Politics?
2023-10-09
For those who prefer their political reform firmly embedded in the Party System, Nigel Farage speaks to the Reform Party.
As always Nigel delivers a barnstorming speech with lots of truth and much sound politics...
But does the Reform Party really depart from the mould of party politics? Or is Nigel just another politician towing the party political system line that the globalists depend upon, whilst pushing the betrayal of Brexit and common sense?
Where's the real revolution Nigel?

Politico Comments on the Energy Bill
2023-09-05
The Energy Bill is due for more Parliamentary debate this month, allegedly.
It's a complex beast, and apparently required in order for us to make up for the loss of EU legislation "following Brexit".
Is it all about investment?
“A delay on the Energy Bill will have a massive ripple effect on the rest of the energy sector... Why would you invest in the U.K. when we don’t have an incentive package that matches the IRA [the U.S. Inflation Reduction Act] or EU’s Net Zero Industry Act, and now we don’t even have the legislation, maybe, to back it up?"
So investment necessary to reach "net zero" might be imperilled?
“The important reforms and measures it includes are needed more than ever after the energy crisis to help accelerate the energy

"We Are ... Still a Member of the European Project"
2023-09-02
Just in case anybody is still unaware, Mahyar Tousi spells out the effectual truth for us:
"We are apparently still a member of the European Project"
(except of course our "membership" doesn't extend to allowing Nigel Farage or any other UK MEPs back into the European Parliament - it's an "à la carte" unofficial membership with all the costs and responsibilities - such as open borders - and none of the benefits)
Quelle Surprise.

Brexit On Course for Reversal?
2023-03-18
We made a brief comment previously on the Sunak Northern Ireland Protocol agreement (the "WIndsor" agreement) but now we have a rather ore complete assessment of what it means, courtesy of Global Britain. No, it isn't good news for our future independence, but is that what you were expecting?
"There was a break in Johnson’s deal, imperfect as that was. We had the legal right to rip it up. Now Sunak’s deal cannot easily be broken as the EU authority over Northern Ireland and critically the sole authority of its Court of Justice will be embedded in international law"
So one of the major safeguards for our independence has been cut away, leaving the way open for as much future harassment as the EU sees fit to

Has Mr Sunak Now Achieved Brexit?
2023-02-28
After so many years of tortuous negotiations with an EU that still and always resents our leaving, the Northern Ireland Protocol Question has been fixed!
But has it been truly fixed, or has it been fixed into permanent position?
The very fact that the EU has approved it indicates the latter. The EU does not do climb-down, and see the matter as furthering the probability that sooner or later, Ireland will have to be reunited - under their governance of course.
That means that the "solution" needs to keep the pot simmering, even if it does go some way toward resolving the incompatibility with the Good Friday Agreement. Future wrangling over detail should ensure plenty of opportunity for both simmering and complexity to flourish.
Of course the other option - Irexit - also remains available and may make economic sense, even if currently politically impossible. A combined independent Ireland outside both the UK and

The Dangers of the European Arrest Warrant
2022-12-31
The UK has nominally at least left the EU, but I'm not aware that we have repealed the legislation that gives power to the EAW within the UK (NB: according to Trevor, Boris did take the UK out of the EAW).

A Sham and a Deceit?
2022-12-29
The CIB (Campaign for an Independent Britain) publishes their view on why the Northern Ireland Protocol is no more than "a sham and a deceit".
Harsh words, but apparently warranted none the less.
Surely our friends and partners across the Channel would never indulge in such measures?
Well, of course not Minister.

Merry Christmas EU! - From the British Government
2022-12-22
In 2016 against all published expectations and in the teeth of "advice" from the massed ranks of the Great and the Good globally, the UK voted to leave the EU.
Quelle Horreur!
How could we possibly succeed without being subject to the wise instruction of the EU Commission?
Outside the infinite wisdom of the ECJ?
And above all, without the doughty rhetoric of Nigel Farage in the EU Parliament to entertain us?
What then unfolded was perhaps the most extraordinarily illuminating Parliament of political and legal contortionist thearter of modern times, which tried everything possible to appear to be leaving the EU whilst determined to remain within its control.
Ultimately, the Great and the Good decided that the only way they could achieve that aim was to allow Boris Johnson to "take us out" in legal terms whilst taking

Hard Truths for the EU Parliament
2022-12-08
In four minutes this professor, speaking for the European Conservatives and Reformists Group, skewers this institution - not with academic learning, but with basic analysis and common sense, plainly spoken.
Would that all videos were so succinct and to the point!

BREXIT in Whose Dock?
2022-12-03
The CIB (Campaign for an Independent Britain) in alliance with Brexit Facts4EU, notes that whilst the Northern Ireland "protocol" is in force, we have not left the EU.
You could say that GB has left the EU, and NI has been left behind - but that ignores the fact that the trade between NI and GB, which is entirely an internal matter for the UK, is subject to EU rules.
Oh, and the Good Friday Agreement, which has been widely credited with ending many years of violence, has also been overridden, since Northern Ireland was not consulted about this supposedly de facto undermining of the Act of Union, under which the province became an equal part of the United Kingdom.

BREXIT - A Personal Reflection
2022-11-28
A good friend of mine emailed me a link this morning with a "must read" recommendation.
Well, one person's "must-read" is sometimes another's "must-bin", but on this occasion I agreed completely. In fact so completely that I decided to feature it for your attention also, dear readers.
Now it must be well-known by now that BREXIT under Mrs May (but Wouldn't) was a convoluted and incomprehensibly byzantine Hotel California agreement that defied logical analysis. That agreement was then picked up by Boris with the catch-phrase "Let's get BREXIT done!" upon which (despite those making a valiant last stand for a real BREXIT) he was voted in by a landslide.
This is the story told by Evelyn Farr (AKA Caroline Bell) who had the temerity to analyze the said

Lockdowns For Ever!
2022-10-23
The Daily Sceptic reminds us that the EU can be relied upon to completely destroy civilisation as we once knew it.
Not content with wiping out it's energy supply chains it now sets itself up for round two of medico-maniacal measures to stifle its populations and small businesses through new winter lockdowns - no doubt in the noble cause of saving both ourselves and the planet.
I suppose if we all have to stay at home then keeping the exterior doors shut will have the minimal effect of retaining a smidgeon more precious but hard-come-by warmth, but the cost would be insufferable and I can't see the Europeans standing for it, "legally-binding treaty" or not.
Meanwhile in the UK once the Tories have completed their implosion and let Sir Kier loose at the controls, we too will be subject to the "lockdown, lockdown harder" mentality to "save the UKHSA" whilst he "negotiates" our happy return into the EU fold - on the EU's terms of course. Goodbye Pound

Charles - The Great Reset Champion
2022-09-24
King Charles has a history of support for the WEF. Indeed, not just support, but active involvement in promoting its aims and agendas.
On the face of it, that is now a huge conflict of interest for a monarch of the United Kingdom.
We are supposed to be a democratic country under a constitutional monarchy, but there is nothing discernably democratic about the WEF.
Are we worrying over nothing?
The People's Voice provide a short summary of his involvement with the WEF, featuring the (as he was then) Prince of Wales himself.
So we can judge for ourselves.
