Election special
There is only one game in town at the moment in the Disunited Kingdom, and it’s the imminent General Election. Until a month ago it was as dull as ditchwater, with Labour expected to trounce that loose collective still inexplicably using the name “Conservative Party” and take the uniparty baton from the oldest political party in the world. There was nothing of interest other than the scale of the drubbing. (more…)

There’s a meme about the upcoming election in Britain involving the simple slogan “Zero Seats.” The slogan relates to the impending wipeout of the Tory Party. It isn’t being used by British liberals, but by politically engaged people on the Right. Naturally, such a statement and goal immediately invites the counter-proposition: “Labour will be even worse.” Labour could very well be even worse than the Tory government, but the impetus to utterly ruin the Tory Party once and for all remains regardless. Similarly, given that we live under a “uni-party” system, the claim can also be made that it makes no difference which “cheek of the arse” sits in power, to quote George Galloway. (more…)

You can’t appease everyone
When Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer was paying attention at Reigate Grammar School in the 1970s and I wasn’t, he may have come across that old conundrum; What happens when an unstoppable force meets an immovable object? (It’s an illegitimate question, by the way, due to its inappropriate use of temporality, but that’s for another day.) If he was not previously aware of this intellectual teaser, he will be now.

This year’s run-up to the British General Election is reminiscent of 1997, when Tony Blair was so spooked by the enthusiastic backing he was getting from the media that he warned his party about “triumphalism” in the weeks leading up to the ballot. That election was a forgone conclusion, and this year’s looks much the same. (more…)

Tice work if you can get it
Scanning the European political landscape from their north London homes, the British media are clutching one another and shrieking like minor characters in a 1950s sci-fi movie when the aliens show up. Europe’s voters, albeit at glacial speed, are finally realizing that it is not just the sovereignty and culture of their nations which are under threat via governmentally-endorsed porous borders, but their personal safety and that of their families.

Proxy warriors
As I hoped to make clear in my piece last week on the Gaza conflict, Israel vs. Palestine is much like Liverpool vs. Tottenham (if you get the football reference) in that I would like both sides to lose.
However, daggers are drawn and fighting has commenced. It is all rather a long way away, but one of the great things about the modern world is that you don’t have to go out to get things. (more…)
