Just to prove David Starkey was talking rubbish about we don't have a separation of powers. From the liberty judgment (and don't forget what the Queen said in 1988 to parliament). "115. The principles of Parliamentary sovereignty and the separation of powers have their genesis in the common law and it the duty of the courts to protect those principles. In Miller II the Court stated that deciding an issue of legality: “34. … will not offend against the separation of powers. As we have just indicated, the court will be performing its proper function under our constitution. Indeed, by ensuring that the Government does not use the power of prorogation unlawfully with the effect of preventing Parliament from carrying out its proper functions, the court will be giving effect to the separation of powers.” The issue under Grounds II and III is whether those constitutional principles are violated when the Executive uses a statutory power to make subordinate legislation for an object and purpose which it has earlier failed to achieve by primary legislation." The won on this point - separation of powers. Her Majesty the Queen made a declaration to BOTH house of parliament on 20th July 1988 stating the independence of the Judiciary is the corner stone of our constitution. paraphrasing. Betty Boothroyd said similar to the courts in 1993. Ashby vs White 1703 was about the right to vote and enforcing separation of powers (you cannot be a Judge in your own cause, ENGLISH maxim. Full Judgement from the archives NOT online.

That’s because the authors were in the club. Eric Blair (George Orwell) was introduced to the Fabian Society by Aldous Huxley, writer of Brave New World. There, Orwell learned the elite’s future plans. So he wrote a novel that’s supposed to be fiction. Orwell didn’t predict anything. He saw the script: cashless society; mass surveillance; world government etc. He named his novel 1984 as homage to the Fabian’s centenary. The real year is around now.

AV's opponents declared "one man one vote, as our grandparents fought for" and framed AV as a chance for the "losers" to "cheat". arguments in favour of AV were buried because they couldn't simplify the benefits enough to be able to land a point through our mediated media channels into our declining attention spans.

Law needs grey areas to allow for legitimate unforeseen events to be judged, but it is these spaces in which the duplicitous operate too!

Well done to Dr David Starkey in being able to identify what has gone wrong in the UK and point to a solution.

We have had 50 years of Hayek and Friedman and guess why the western world is in a mess. Poverty levels rising incomes falling, and the disaster of the global economy. Friedman and Hayek opposed Keynes which produced the highest standards of living never seen before, and its reversal by the policies of Hayek and Friedman or the Mont Perlin Group to which they belonged, has destroyed everything that was good in this country. All we are left with now is the claim its all down to migrants. Blaming minorities for the actions of Neo-Liberal politicians is the classic scapegout and the road to chaos. New Labour, LIbdems and Tories are all in it together following the very diktats Starkey is saying is the problem.

In February the by election in Knaresborough and Wellingborough recorded data which showed 83pc of the electorate did not vote for the Labour candidates who romped home.

What we saw under Blair was the triumph of the Fabian Long March Through the Institutions which Blair celebrated by dedicating the Fabian Stained Glass Window paid for by George Bernard Shaw in 2010 and which displays their then ambition to destroy English sovereignty and replace it with a totalitarian dictatorship. Orwell was at one time a Fabian and 1984 is a warning against their actions rather than as claimed condemnation of the Soviet Union.

The problem is nobody is listening to the people and worse, Brexit and Covid opened the charade to the entire populace. or at least to those that care.

I believe Starmer was selected for his blandness. his job is to trickle along till the election without anyone saying anything that would upset... the unions, students, NHS staff, the immigrant population, LGBTQ etc. To upset any one of these blocks of voters could cause some or all of them to vote against Labour. Hence his and his chums being careful not to commit to any opinions. Meanwhile, having created many diversions, Blair and Mandleson get on with the real job, cooking New Labour The Sequel.

BLiar was nothing more than an opportunistic charlatan. He's actually of aristocratic lineage, there's the Blair Athol estate in Perthshire. He was educated at Fettes College, the Scottish equivalent of Eton. Blair was probably molded into the creature he became at this serpentine institution. He became an MP in 1983, aged 29 following a brief career in law in which, he never passed the B.A.R. exam. I believe the marriage to Cherie Booth was more than likely orchestrated to make BLiar appear 'working-class'. She was just another opportunistic entity who knew that her husband would go far in politics (She never truly liked her humble roots). Now, the matter of John Smith's death. Highly suspicious if you ask me. The Establishment had already begun the infiltration of the Labour Party since Kinnock's tenure but Smith wanted to retain unions, worker's rights, secure borders and less control from Brussels. The Establishment didn't like this. Smith's convenient death in 1994 opened the door for BLiar and the rest is history.

Ooh. Melodramatic righty comment of the day.

In 1976 I went on a school trip to Russia, designed to improve our language skills. I encountered the 2 tier system David talks about, the fear in the faces of the school escorts when asked a question, looking to the daughter of the party member for the nod to speak. It was winter, we couldn't get fruit, we mentioned it and the daughter of the party member produced a sack of oranges, only offered to the visitors, not the Russian students. Life was good for a very few......now it will be those who get the first strangle hold on the rest of us.

My suspicion of Blair was creating all these human rights due to his wife being a human rights lawyer. How convenient and they both became millionaires

As a child growing up in the fifties and sixties with no money or luxury but oh my goodness how much happier we all were! We didn’t have our high streets ruled by obnoxious youths welding machetes in the drug wars. Online porn available for young boys encourages seedy behaviour and aggressive tactics towards girls. Ask anyone in your street if they are happy? What a miserable greedy violent world we live in.

Weakness of government has led us to this point coupled with the lack of understanding of our recent history and how our society was created since the magna carta. Most politicians are uneducated and inept particularly those in the labour party who are almost to a man entirely inexperienced. As Peter Hinkins recently commented 'because a government is percieved as incompetent they may not actually be doing any harm and as such should not be excluded from continuing.' Change for the sake of it which appears to be coming will be catastrophic for the UK!
