I must firstly make an apology. For my lack of posting, I know that many of you rely on this as your main source of entertainment/information and for that I am sincerely sorry. But genuinely, even if I was posting every single day on this blog, as was my initial plan, I still wouldn’t be able to keep up with the rate at which the world is changing. Are we being exposed to more news? Or is their genuinely worse things happening in the world?
This post comes the day after Liz Truss has been elected by the Tory membership as the new leader of the Conservative Party, beating Rishi Sunak. It was pretty obvious that she would win, as the Party’s membership is still incredibly loyal to Boris (remember him? He’ll be back, baby!) and saw Sunak as a traitor to the party.
Forget that Truss is incompetent, forget that she has no relevant experience, forget that she has performed woefully in every live debate they’ve had. The Tory membership still love their BoJo so much that they wouldn’t elect Rishi Sunak. I am no fan of Rishi Sunak – but at least he (kind of) knew what he was talking about! That’s how the Tory Membership and Tory voters think.
And it’s for this exact reason that I have no confidence that:
- Boris will not make a grand return
- Labour will not win the next election
Both, at the moment, seem almost impossible. Comparable to Trump being elected President of the United States, or Britain voting to leave the EU? But that’s how divided mainstream politics has become in both the USA and Britain – that parties will elect a completely incompetent leader just so they can remain in power. Britain must be careful not to stray down the same path as the USA with regards to political divides – The Economist is now predicting absolute insanity (as I did a year ago) and a potential civil war. This is something Britain can’t afford and can’t get involved in.
If you want to know more about the Truss/Sunak/Boris saga you should head straight for one of those mainstream newspapers – you’ll get your hit of dopamine there and I can’t keep up with this insanity! As someone once told me, however, is that “the media is not a charity.” And whilst shrieking “FAKE NEWS” is not exactly what I mean by this – one should be careful when reading constantly negative news.
Focus on something else – as I now will.
