Politics

  • Power is given, power is taken away

    A strong theme in most biblical preaching in the UK is the removal of power. It’s done – in religious terms – if a people are judged by God to have zero credibility. The high walls come down. The armies are defeated. The kingdom is overcome.

    The teaching of this has reached a lot of people over the years. We get the humiliation some rulers feel in the process. We know of the jubilation that can result afterwards. We also know it’s more nuanced than that at times, like the Nativity.

    However, the lessons are played out in our modern lives too. The falling of some power bases. The titling of alliances this way or that. The failure of a plan to overtake. This is unfolding right before our eyes in every part of the world. These truths are always relevant to us.

  • Michael Heseltine is a cheap impresario

    It’s alleged that the Heseltine that we’re told to know and love is not the Heseltine of reality. It’s the comment Lady Thatcher made to me in the years she spent in a political wilderness following her demise from UK political life.

    She often spoke of people, and many names came up in our “coffee conversations”, as she called them. She knew about the hatred of public life, and the corruption ripped through every other walk of life. She knew she got labels she didn’t deserve, and many more besides that she didn’t like.

    Her memories were apt, and faithfully reported the true drama of the times. Heseltine was someone she always found it unfortunate to remember. She said he was a bad example in private and in public. It’s believed he was a mastermind behind much of the conspiracy that straddled her Premiership. “He’s also disliked anywhere else I go,” she once said, soberly.

    His recent comments about Nigel Farage MP (Clacton/Reform UK) are ill-advised. He clearly doesn’t understand the situation on the ground, as it were. He whips up hatred as if he is an Enoch Powell type of figure himself, which is more than likely. There are many secret extremists in Parliament who just plot against us. Farage is the latest target in his book.

  • Starmer is bad fodder for politics

    The pressing issues of the day have lasted long enough. The fact is Starmer isn’t capable of carrying on any further. He can’t defend a record that includes the failure to end the Dover Crossings crisis. He also can’t hide the difficulties many face in their personal budgets. It’s not unclear to the untrained eye. It’s now glaringly obvious.

    The busybodies in Parliament are failing to cover the issues the country cares about. Their platforms also indicate a distracted mindset, easily led astray by international affairs and business matters. The clumsy approach of some to defending the rights of others is thinly veiled now. Parliament isn’t a rigorous political enterprise, or a serious one.

  • World exclusive: Putin’s father located

    In a world exclusive for Conservative News Site, it’s believed that Russian President Vladimir Putin’s father has been located. It’s alleged a person seen loitering in a shop in Reading, Berkshire, is the male birth parent of Putin.

    An unidentified male alleged to be the Russian President’s father seen here in Reading, Berkshire.

    It’s not known if the sighting is a first or if he is in the UK on official or unofficial business. It’s said the Russian President has many body doubles for all his relatives, including his close family. His past life as a KGB/FSB spy has made it so.

  • 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.

  • Your Party risks cultural wars

    The standpoint of many socialists and Left-leaning ideologues is not akin to the reality. The wealth of the world’s one percent, as they put it, is like saying a manager has too much power. It’s like accusing us all of hoarding food when it’s our dinner time. It’s the same as seeking to fill any car seat regardless of the drivers wishes.

    The great glass ceiling above us, that being wherever wealth is held, is also supported by an alleged twenty percent beneath it. These are the staff that work in industries rich with investment. They are the people tasked with making sure money stays where it’s useful. They also even have to make it profitable.

    The rest – much of the remaining seventy nine percent – are the rest of us who use or rely on money. It’s there that protesters are usually found. It’s their income, their property, or their savings at risk that matters. The call to pull the ceiling down is akin to wishing the sky to fall on our heads. It doesn’t work. It can’t work. It won’t work. It’s why people call for reason – and calm.

  • World exclusive: Hitler’s lost son

    In a world exclusive for Conservative News Site, an alleged lost son of Hitler, believed widely to have been his last to Eva Braun, has been spotted in Reading, Berkshire.

    A suspect alleged of fascist activity seen here in Reading Station, in Reading, Berkshire.

    It’s believed his links to Hitler, the last great dictator of Europe, have been hidden here by a secretive group of Nazi fanatics.

  • Fascist Estate tried, but they always fail

    The now-defunct “Fascist Estate” network had a good go at an old type of plot. As far as I’ve been told, it’s been done before. This time, it looked something different, however.

    The alleged Old Etonian, Ken Gott (as he’s known), is clever in person. He’s informed on his points. He made it clear what he means.

    He’s studied war and knows a lot about regional, and cultural, disputes in our past. This made him aware of pitfalls. It didn’t make him aware of our modern times.

    The end of his pursuit of glory began outside his former office. It still has a sign saying “Thames House” next to the door. It acts as a sinister hint of his intelligent use of facts.

    The moment Gott faltered is when he was challenged over his activities there. He failed to answer, felt under pressure, and ran away. He was caught at the wrong moment.

    It later emerged he’d been in some troubling legal disputes. He felt pressured. He felt on the back foot. It was later he tried a last, desperate attempt to take more assets.

  • Europe is not a warmonger

    The Ukraine-Russia conflict is entirely the fault of Russia. Ukraine and its allies did not start it. The often combative Russian state descended into its own malaise.

    It feels like it’s a way out, but this is a false belief. Whatever the security concerns of the closed state, this is not a path to resolution. It opens it up to outright warfare.

  • Argentina’s President hails a victory

    President Javier Milei of Argentina has hailed a stunning mid-term comeback after searing criticism of his policies.

    His party saw its seat share in the Lower and Upper houses increase by around twice its 2023 result, backing its leader.

  • Russia is a standard enemy

    Russia is a standard enemy as far as we can know one. The exceptional circumstance of either of the World Wars has to be left aside now. In the modern world, there are now State threats everywhere. These sometimes take the form of something like espionage, or at other times it’s just the State itself.

    The terms that we’ve come to use and the fear that we feel are justly applicable to Russia. We can see this because of the Ukrainian struggle that’s underway. Albeit it’s not our fight, what we can look at it like a focused lens on how we see things. We see it’s reality.

  • Revealed: The spiritual inspiration of “Fascist Estate”

    In spite of any reports to the contrary, the now-defunct paramilitary group “Fascist Estate” had its father figure that gave its first leader and founder his inspiration to do it. This person was Sir Giles Gilbert Scott. He’s noted as an architect and the mastermind behind large pieces of the UK landscape.

    The story of his rise to infamy in this regard was a closely guarded secret by members of the group. However, deep, undercover investigations have brought to light a possible scenario. This includes the suggestion that Scott met the founder of “Fascist Estate” after a church service in St Martin-in-the-Fields, in London. This was shortly before his death.

    The encounter had long been planned, but it only became a reality as Scott realised the gentleman he was going to meet was able to do it. The suggestion made was more of a hint or a nod in the right direction. It meant such a group would prosper if not thrive in certain parts of the English countryside. This is when it began to come to life.

  • “Fascist Estate” teaches us about the past

    The now-defunct group “Fascist Estate” took some of its inspiration from Hitler, but not all of it. It’s believed most fascists don’t because it’s not the point. The raw energy or power that comes from their worldview is what matters. They also believe in redesigning themselves to move away from any criticisms people can make. This is reflected in a meetings culture and private dialogues held by fascists.

    Such an outlook helps them to avoid the mistakes of their forbears, and to continually improve. This is central to any fascists activity. The theory of evolution plays a large role in many of the lives of the people that I’ve come across. This is a thread that makes it all make sense.

    Ken Gott, the last and final leader of “Fascist Estate”, was himself more of a neo-fascist. It’s a term that denotes a “new” breed of fascist emerging from the old. He held to more advanced concepts in his mind than his peers. This is why he led the group for so long. He was known to be intelligent. His ideas fitted into any developing state of affairs. He always had a wise word to give.

    He had plans to change the name of the group in future. It had to progress first. He knew it had started out in an extremely simple way, and had a long journey ahead. His entrance was at a turning point when it might have done so. There were others ready to stop him. These efforts made sure he was slowed, confronted, and eventually stopped in his tracks. He didn’t turn it into a fully fledged fighting force in time.

  • Stating our truths has become a norm

    It’s become normal to state our truths about things. This is the norm at the centre of today’s politics. The thoughts we have are now the soundbites of the populace. We are the voice of our own struggles, and our visions of the future.

    However, at the same time dogmas come in to overtake. The ideologies that have no home move in to try their luck. This is a phenomenon of our current ways. It’s not tidy, and it leaves a mess. It’s the duty of those invested in our democracy to make it clear who rules here.

  • Our politics still evokes strong feelings

    There’s a rumour that George Orwell wrote his famous work 1984 based on 1,984 testimonies of experiences during the Wars. He looked at archive newspaper clippings, statements, and eyewitness accounts wherever he could find them. He put these together to sum up the feelings of the day, and to epitomise the thinking of the people around him.

    His novel is a cultural work, or an artifice (as one writer described it to me) for our nation. It’s understood in our deepest, innermost thoughts and feelings. It’s believed by some that more book groups exist around this work by Orwell than any by Tolkien or similar writers.

    It hits deep, and yet it hits where it hurts for many people. The themes and images evoke something of the reality of today. It’s the enduring power of a political work. It’s not just a tale told by a Journalists eye, but it has some veracity to it because it sympathises with us. It takes on our horrors and interprets the ghouls and shadows into more.
