Ladybower.

Saturday morning was glorious, fine, balmy and sunny with singing birds, beautiful butterflies, frogs and some wonderful company on the shoreline of Ladybower Reservoir.
Better than all of this was that Number Two son - a long time Christian - had finally got around to being baptised and had chosen to do so beneath the waters of the famous lake.
Praise God!

Traitor Heath. (There Seem To Be Rather More About In The Higher Echelons of Politics These Days.)

For those who may doubt my choice of vocabulary - shortly before his death, he admitted to the BBC to having lied to the British people about the Common Market and what he KNEW was designed to become the federal state he wanted - and the federal state that he knew that the people did not!
That is how we ended up in the precursor to the EU in the first place!
"Mr Heath - did you know that the EU was designed to become a federal state?"
"Of course, I bloody did!"

Think How Awesome This Statement Is.


Ah.


Well, Mrs May ...

Nigel Farage is the second most popular choice among Conservative Party councillors to be the next Tory leader, a new poll has found.
Only Boris Johnson is more popular than the leader of The Brexit Party with Mr Farage ahead of frontrunner candidates including Michael Gove, Jeremy Hunt, Sajid Javid and Dominic Raab.
Mr Johnson, the former foreign secretary and prominent Brexiteer, was backed by 19 per cent of Tory councillors as the best option to take over from Theresa May when the field included Mr Farage.  
The former Ukip leader was supported by 15 per cent of the 781 Tory councillors polled by Survation between April 17 and 19.
The findings are likely to prompt a moment of reflection among... Telegraph.

Singing For The Very Joy of Being Alive.


Holy Saturday.

Easter Saturday.

It is awesome to look forward to the mighty celebrations we can offer in Church tomorrow as we celebrate the fact that death's sting has been removed.

Brexit Party & Ukip.

If EU elections do take place, it is essential that the Brexit Party wipes Ukip from the map. There must be no splitting of votes.
It is essential that the BP gives Lib/Lab/Con/Greens the biggest thrashing in political history - the embarrassment that Ukip has become must not be allowed to hinder the progress of the New Kids On The Block.
Gerard's kowtowing to a certain Mr Robinson will hopefully be the requisite stake through the heart. With a combined vote suggested of BP 27% to Ukip's 7% by YouGov, should these figures follow through, the number of seats achieved by Ukip in 2014 could be equalled. 
With the Ukip rump kicked out into the long grass and their vote share reduced by 4% - there would be no reason why the BP could not achieve well over 30 seats!
If it looks as though that is going to be the case - the odds strengthen on the EU suddenly giving May assistance in getting her deal through or better, the strong possibility of a no-deal.
Anything but a customs union, please!
Of course, Nigel will need to be on his best behaviour for a short while. Can he manage that, I wonder?

Well ... I've Always Had My Doubts About That Guy.

Ever Needed Hypocrisy Defining?

John Major, speaking on the Andrew Marr show in December 2015
“I will forgive no-one who does not accept the sovereign voice of the British people once it has spoken, whether it is by 1% or 20%.”

What Good Friday Means.

Tories Into Oblivion? - How Bad Would That Be?

The simple answer to the question is that it is impossible to know. What we do know is that a Corbyn government is unthinkable - but then again - how many youngsters go into default Corbyn-support because they haven't any clue what socialism is actually like? In the schools, colleges and universities - by indirect or even direct means - they have had their minds polluted by leftist educators. (Don't forget the leftist media led by the BBC and the celebs!)
So would a Corbynista takeover show two generations just how bad socialism really is? One Corbyn government could see Labour killed off forever! Maybe - but if there is no real opposition, we could just as easily become a new-marxist nation via the ballot box. Loads of giveaways to the electorally simple and lo - there is Corbyn with a second term as our economy plunges into terminal decline.
Sometimes, I am rather glad that I am in the last 20% of my life but I worry about my grandchildren.

If only so many fools in Ukip had just shown a tiny whit of common sense from 2014 onwards - they would now have been the government-in-waiting. But - mere water under Westminster Bridge!

Will Nigel have learned from his countless mistakes in leading Ukip? Will his Brexit Party hold out new hope? How many times on this Blog have I argued the need for a non-tory, non-liberal-left party of the centre-right that all the sensible Labour voters can also support?

Could such a party be ready to govern in a few years time? - The answer is an emphatic NO! 
Even if we can break with History and the 20 year span needed to establish a new party - which I frankly doubt - it must surely take a decade to get up and running. Under FPTP - there is NO chance!

We need the pathetic Liberal Democrat Party to die. We need The ancient Labour Party to die. We need the tory party to either die or to totally reinvent itself as a true party of the centre-right.
Will that happen? - Only God Himself can answer that!

Birdie.


No! People Must Learn That Actions Have Consequences - AND The Younger The Better.

16 APRIL 2019 
Criminals will have minor offences wiped from their records under plans being considered by Sajid Javid to stop them being denied jobs by “spent” convictions.
The Home Secretary is reviewing a rule where anyone with more than one conviction, no matter how minor, automatically has them disclosed to a prospective employer for the rest of their lives.
The new plan could mean minor assaults, thefts or drug possession would not automatically be disclosed to employers  by the Government disclosure and barring service.
Mr Javid believes that juvenile offenders who want to escape criminality need be given a second chance but campaigners for victims’ rights warned the plan could put the public at risk.... Telegraph.
