Is Farage About to Return to Politics? (and why it'll hurt
Sunak)
[quote]Farage bowed out of the political sphere after Brexit,
but with the Tories looking vulnerable he's apparently eyeing up
a return. So in this video we discuss if Farage could be
returning to politics & how it could decimate the
Conservatives[/quote]

Is the time ripe for a Nigel Farage comeback?
[quote]“Fear of Nigel Farage… has forced Conservative
politicians into taking a much harder line on Europe and indeed
on immigration.”
As the Conservatives struggle with immigration, economic
turmoil, and anger at a cost of living crisis after 12 years in
government, could these be the perfect conditions for the
resurgence of a [s]populist[/s] force from the Right – Nigel
Farage?

History will ask how long it took for brexit to break Britain
[quote]We can save our country and even the union but not with
this sledgehammer introspective politics we have currently
embraced. And if The EU was designed to stop war in Europe we
can see clearly how the fracturing of the EU has led most
clearly to war in Europe in the Ukraine. We need more unity and
less division.[/quote]

Rightist tribalism and western democracy are responsible for
Brexit, nothing else. How could anyone achieve unity without
addressing tribalism, which is the root cause of division among
human-beings?
(The British Empire was already broken when it decided to wage
war against the Third Reich, some would argue).

[quote]A Tory MP’s bid to force Rishi Sunak to ignore rulings
from the European Court of Human Rights (ECHR) over the
deportation of illegal alien Muslim asylum seekers to Rwanda was
today defeated at the first hurdle.
...
Mr Gullis said his proposals would mean “we can get the
migrant-wannabes who have entered the UK illegally, onto the
flights to Rwanda” and in the future to other safe countries to
have their claims processed. “Thereby changing the law to
explicitly ignore the European Court of Human Rights from
meddling in our sovereignty on this specific matter.[/quote]
Of course, rightists will not stop trying to close the borders
just because of a legislative setback:
[quote]Mr Sunak reiterated “our new legislation will deliver a
system whereby a person who comes here illegally will have no
right to stay and will be removed to their own country or a safe
third country alternative”.[/quote]
Legislative setbacks will only slow them down. The only way to
open the borders is to make enforcement of closed borders too
dangerous to attempt. This requires constant Ahimsa on border
personnel.

Over 8 million people in the UK living in fuel poverty, new
figures reveal | ITV News
[quote]Old, decaying and expensive to heat, the UK has some of
the most poorly insulated houses in Western Europe.
As temperatures drop and energy bills continue to soar this
winter, pensioners like Geraldine O’Connor, from Sheffield, are
being plunged deeper into fuel poverty.
"I owe my energy company £15,000 to £16,000. There’s no way I
can pay it. It’s impossible," she said.
The 66-year-old suffers from severe epilepsy. Her disability
benefits and the state pension are no longer enough to survive
on.[/quote]

What's behind the vegetable shortages in the UK | DW News
[quote]Britain has struggled with inflation over the past year,
in large part because of energy costs. But other factors -
including Brexit and a standoff between suppliers and grocers -
have created something more alarming in recent: visible food
shortages.[/quote]

Comments:
[quote]Just to clarify, wholesalers prices have shot up 50
percent but the supermarkets will not pay extra money for the
food. Hence empty shelves. [/quote]
[quote]I've haven't had any problems buying fruit and veg or
anything else here in the UK![/quote]
[quote]Never been a better time to dig up some of that useless
back yard grass and start yourself a garden. Good for the
planet, good for you, and tastes great. I also enjoy gifting a
basket of fresh veggies to friends/neighbors, who always
genuinely appreciate it.[/quote]
[quote]Obviously, there has been no push or help towards people
becoming farmers or growing food, UK has far to many massive
producers, not enough smaller producers who are local,
You will see plenty of funding/ advertising towards ,
" become a full stack developer in 26 weeks
"
" Get into the social care sector "
" Get a loan for a degree "
Etc , etc
Nothing towards pushing local community to grow food and offer a
framework to follow with funding, imagine what kind of new
industry that would create, new jobs can be created, locally
In a nutshell, UKs problem is the similitude of many countries,
they rely upon others too much and when the 💩 hits the
fan , they got no back up or have shot themselves in the foot
and everyone else has to suffer for free[/quote]
Why is the UK Running out of Food (and is it Brexit)?
[quote]Over the last few weeks, the UK has become accustom to
finding empty shelves in supermarkets. The thing is, that unlike
during COVID, this is a fairly UK specific phenonium. So why is
Britain running out of food, and is Brexit to blame?[/quote]

UK's Hunt says 'absolutely devastating' if US failed to raise
debt ceiling
[quote]NIIGATA, Japan, May 13 (Reuters) - British finance
minister Jeremy Hunt said on Saturday it would be "absolutely
devastating" if the United States failed to reach agreement to
raise its debt ceiling and had its gross domestic product
"knocked off track".
Hunt told reporters that Group of Seven (G7) finance chiefs in
Japan had "very frank and open discussions" about the challenges
they face, including banking regulation and the impact of
Russia's war in Ukraine on the global economy.
A standoff between President Joe Biden and the
Republican-controlled House of Representatives, which has raised
the prospect of a first-ever U.S. debt default, posed a "very
serious threat to the global economy," Hunt said.
"It would be absolutely devastating if America, which is one of
the biggest motors of the global economy, was to have its GDP
knocked off track by not reaching agreement," he said. He said
he hoped that Biden and Congress would be able to resolve their
differences.
Hunt said G7 officials also discussed the impact of Western
sanctions on Russia over its invasion of Ukraine, and talked at
length about the need to stop sanctions evasion, or
leakage...[/quote]

Most Brits Want Another EU Referendum: Will it Happen?
[quote]A steady majority of Brits regret brexit, but until

However, new polling suggests that for the first time a majority

[quote]Legal migration is too high, says Rishi Sunak
...
“The numbers are too high, and we want to bring them down,” Mr
Sunak said, adding that figures were higher in 2022 due to
Ukrainian refugees coming to the UK, something he said the
country should be “proud of”.[/quote]
Translation: when they are "white", we should be proud of
accepting them, but when they are "non-white", numbers are too
high.
