October 14th Election? One In The Eye For Whom?
Ignoring much of the asinine opinions expressed in the Guardian this week…
..and by God this week’s pages were positively infested by imbecilic ranters, like that ugly uppity Un-Australian Yapper, Yassim Abdel-Magied…
.
Far-Left’s Anti-Migrant Ranting Deafens Australia!
…who went nuts because another lefty luminary showed a tine wee bit of sense, viz.,
..the argument became a tirade. It became about the fact that a white man should be able to write the experience of a young Nigerian woman and if he sells millions and does a “decent” job — in the eyes of a white woman — he should not be questioned or pilloried in any way.
All together, now, YAWN!
….
It became about mocking those who ask people to seek permission to use their stories. https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2016/sep/10/as-lionel-shriver-made-light-of-identity-i-had-no-choice-but-to-walk-out-on-her
…
..
And Malignant Magied’s hogwash howl is only arguably the most deranged drivel the Guardian thinks worth inflicting on readers!
Get this!
Life began for me as a queer teenager amid the happy excesses of Great Yarmouth
The editors apparently imagine that there are people remotely interested in reading about a sexual deviant’s adolescent antics!
However….
That, all that, above, is just a kindly mental-health warning – avoid the Guardian.
It does stress you out after a very short perusal of its pearls of pinko wisdom.
Today, it’s BORIS, or at least his alleged scheming, that I want, very briefly, to look at, and in particular…
.
Boris Johnson to seek 14 October election if rebels succeed, says government source – as it happened
…I was fascinated by the announcement of the date of the next UK election.
October 14th!
As we noted two years ago…
October 14th – Hastings Day, As England Faces Invasion
——
——
…that’s the anniversary of the Battle of Hastings!
So can we read the runes of history to predict the outcome?
Will Boris be blind-sided by Europhiliac renegades…
…
…
…and the realm continue to be ruled from abroad?
Be cool!
History is a valuable tool for those Brits wishing to learn what mistakes should be avoided when fighting off enemies across the Channel.
But anniversaries, unless forgotten by unwise husbands, are not indicators of what happens next!

The Guardian publishes all that BS junk because its readers are as addled as its editors.

You very entertainingly cover quite a few issues but you make me think you still have reservations about our ‘Bojo.’
I don’t blame you.
Nevertheless, he’s doing a lot of good things.
I like best how he may eject Hammond and Clarke and the other leftwingers from the party and make them stand as independents, unless they come clean and join the LibDems.
We are living in interesting times.

I too enjoyed this but I have very agonising doubts about Johnson.
I would ask you, Vanessa, to read. this https://www.conservativewoman.co.uk/are-we-watching-a-monumental-act-of-treachery and tell me what you think after you read it.

So far so good, Vanessa, as far as cleaning out lefies. That ultra liberal “Tory” Philip Lee MP has just crossed the floor of the Commons to join the Libdems.
It is very frustrating to be an expat far away from this battle. I wish I could join all those ‘We Voted Leave’ demonstrators at Westminster.

A Shropshire man ( or is it woman?) here in Indonesia, who shares my Brexiteer commitment?
How intriguing!
It is frustrating, watching it all on tv but I suppose if we were in the UK we’d be doing the same, unless we lived in London.
If you are in Jakarta, we should get together and have a beer sometime.

Ross, I have been glued to the news for hours. I had no intention of commenting till after the vote in the Commons but Salop has now drawn me in.
Salop, it was very pertinent of you use those inverted commas around ‘Tory’ when writing about Lib Dem Lee.
He did not even have the courage to attend the special meeting of the Bracknell Conservative Association when they debated their motion of No Confidence.
The motion was passed and so Lee was due to be replaced.
No wonder he has bolted for the nearest rat-hole.

A beer is always a good idea but I live very far away, not quite as far as Aceh but up north and I don’t much like big cities so have only been to Jakarta once or twice, for work, since I came here.
Have you been watching the BBC?

I was watching tv since I got home otherwise I would have commented earlier.
I get worn out listening to the Remainer rants.
I am planning an early night to recharge my Brexit batteries.
