Conservative

  • Only conservatives can save us now

    The end or cessation of someone’s nefarious plan is not always written in stone. The best laid efforts of powerful leaders have often come to nothing. In some instances, leaders haven’t even tried to do anything at all.

    This is certainly true in our country, as in recent times we’ve discovered far too many threats to allow ourselves to believe that we’ve been sufficiently protected. The maintenance of effect over use has disabled us.

    The beginnings of the First World War used to teach people about the rise of a new order over the old by one person’s will above all others. Now, people work towards a similar goal by following a single purpose of their own.

  • The conservatives are coming out to play

    The Conservatives have the biggest audience share in the UK for conservatism. They have a sizeable number of MP’s in the Commons, compared to rivals Reform UK.

    The numbers also add up to this conclusion. The declared donations for them in April to June this year shows the Tories raised £4,508,968 against £1,540,301 to Reform.

    The fact they’ve held out against Labour in this regard shows the party is still gaining ground back after a brutal election defeat. It also proves that alternative parties are viable in a broad church.

  • Thatcher’s words are charged with promise

    Margaret Thatcher was known to play a huge role in politics before her death. Like many other Tories, she continued to encourage party members to get on through disputes.

    “The sense of opposition one feels,” she once quipped, “is too much for some.” There is truth written in that statement for many today.

    It’s an overwhelming privilege but a heavy burden that many feel after an election win. The heaviest issues of the day are on the table. It takes perseverance.

    Thatcher was overheard consoling a party member who was finding it tough to campaign. “I’m sorry they haven’t understood yet,” she began, “but they do know, and that’s better than nothing.”

    It can be a tough having to walk the streets to see no interest in your platform. Yet a party is there as a vehicle of support. Long may they all continue.

  • Thatcher’s love for the UK is noble

    Margaret Thatcher is a misunderstood, maligned figure in UK politics. There aren’t many that understand her approach to politics in the country at large.

    If on the spot she said things to unite a party together. If on her own, she supported the basics of the state stoically.

    Her support for the NHS, for example, is now lore in its quarters. She’s regarded as an intellectual for its ways and means. Many remember her cause.

    The television reports don’t do her justice, but hints of her ethic are found in her speeches.

    She warmed to crowds much different to her own. She passed away knowing she’d helped the many types of people here.

  • Pres. Trump’s war on all of us

    The Trump administration is in a combative mood, but Trump himself has been on a warpath for much longer. His statements on Truth Social, a social network he’s said to own, are often outrageous in their style, tone, and context.

    He doesn’t hold back. His latest outburst is over tariffs, a form of economic policy that is often used as a defensive measure. Trump is determined to make sure he protects America from every angle. He’s lashed out at the EU in a particular post.

    “The European Union, one of the most hostile and abusive taxing and tariffing authorities in the World, which was formed for the sole purpose of taking advantage of the United States, has just put a nasty 50% Tariff on Whisky. If this Tariff is not removed immediately, the U.S. will shortly place a 200% Tariff on all WINES, CHAMPAGNES, & ALCOHOLIC PRODUCTS COMING OUT OF FRANCE AND OTHER E.U. REPRESENTED COUNTRIES. This will be great for the Wine and Champagne businesses in the U.S.”

    He says the EU is “hostile”, and “abusive” in its taxes and tariff’s. However, he launches his own broadside. The threat is a 200% tariff on alcohol from EU states, a massive sweep at trade. The hypocrisy is evident in the way he says it, and the policy.

    The motive must come from his own advisors, but Trump has a way of making things clear. His business sense is to return like for like. If a prisoner is taken, he takes one too. The trouble is that such humour isn’t shared on both sides of the Atlantic.
