UK SHUTS PARLIAMENT - FORECAST - WHAT NEXT?

NO HORSES NO DRIVERS.
REDUNDANT
BORIS DEPOSES ELIZABETH THE LAST

"REVOKE ARTICLE 50 to stop Brexit." Jo Swinson MP Leader of the Lib-Dems wins standing ovation at the Lib-Dem Conference.

At last a leading politician speaks up for the majority of UK voters. Has the anti-Remain gag on UK media been torn aside? The UK Murdoch media, including The Times (the popular channels) is still hammering-out the bullshit message that "The Will of the People" demands us to quit Europe. The BBC and ITV and some local newspapers seem to have at last woken to the threat of a fascist invasion and takeover. Article 50 is the letter sent to the EU giving notice of the UK leaving Europe. It can be reversed by another letter, of revocation. Quick, cost-free and efficient.

18 Sept 2019 - 9.30 am - Desperate Times: UK waits for The Supreme Court. Will the eleven judges licence the Fascist revival as demanded by the offshore billionaires who own the UK media; and demanded by those traitors gambling against Sterling?

Lee

The Lib-Dems (Revoke Article 50 and STOP BREXIT) are the only effective REMAIN party. Corbyn and Boris are for LEAVE.

Leaving is so damaging (5 million+ UK job losses) that I will support any and all serious initiatives to REMAIN.

What alternative do you see? – Noel

PS – 16.8 million voted remain. 6.2 million signed the petition. 1.2 million marched through London. I and they will not be gagged by the right wing, offshore billionaire owned media and the bullying fascist revival. Dangerous times.

10 Sept 2019 UK SHUTS PARLIAMENT - WHAT NEXT?

Our one-month old Prime Minister, serial liar Boris Johnson, and his ex-Cambridge Analytica/ Facebook data scandal, sociopathic sidekick, Dominic (evil genius) Cummings, have effected a cunning scheme (proroguing) to send the 650 UK Members of Parliament home, to prevent them from questioning The Government. The House of Commons shut down at midnight on Sunday 9th September.

Where will the 650 MPs meet in September and October?

Astonishingly, so far, UK judges and courts have said the closure has nothing to do with them - so, to date the closure is deemed to be legal - or at least not illegal. Appeal Courts might change this.

These tactics and the lukewarm responses from lawyers, MPs and the media, are rightly being compared to Hitler's tactics in 1933 to create his crazed dictatorship, using his gangs of psychopathic killers, recently released from prisons and lunatic asylums, to rule Germany. What next, a Reichstag Fire and a weekend of book-burning in Westminster?

"The Government" or Number 10, now consists of about 20 dimwit or self-profiting (shorting Sterling) Ministers, sworn to quit Europe on 31st October 2019; and the Civil Service that is presumed to be taking their orders and making Brexit happen. Effectively the UK is being run by Cummings with Boris as his puppet. Number 10 is being "ruled with a rod of iron" by Dominic Cummings. Boris is as baffled and waffling as ever - and has moved into Number 10 with one if his young mistresses (the UK's First Lady?). He is accused of lying to the Queen to make her sign the papers to shut down Parliament.

If underlings refuse Boris's orders - he and and his gang are helpless.

Boris vows to ruin his country (I say his country, even though he now claims to be a Turkish Muslim emigre) by forcing a Do-or-Die (the phrase is actually Do-and-Die) Brexit on the 31st October 2019. Spookily, that date is Halloween; more shades of deranged Nazi myths and ideologies. Any Brexit will cause chaos and bankruptcy. Boris's No-Deal-Brexit will cause 5 million job losses as WTO tariffs, from 5% to 45% are added to our export-prices to the 500 million EU citizens and globally, and thus restrict our sales.

Assuming that something close to normality is restored, what will happen to politics? The main parties are:

311 TORIES (Boris and Co "Leave")

248 LABOUR (Corbyn and Co "Leave")

17 LIB-DEMS (Jo Swinson and Co - "Stop Brexit")

0 BREXIT PARTY (Farage & Co - no MPs but vociferous)

35 SCOTTISH NATIONAL PARTY (SNP wanting Scotland to quit the UK and stay with Europe)

10 DEMOCRATIC UNIONIST PARTY (DUP, N. Ireland's angry-leave gang, the 7 IRA MPs refuse to attend Parliament)

43 WELSH NATIONALISTS - Plaid Cymru ("Leave")

And last but not least 38 INDEPENDENT MPs (mostly "Remain" who have quit the Party System but still sit in Parliament.

After an election, I think that another two months of Boris's lies and tom-fooleries and of Corbyn's slippery, sly smoke-filled-rooms tactics will result in:

170 TORIES "Brexit - Do and Die Suicide Pact"

120 LABOUR "Maybe some sort of Brexit - and the Soviet Republic of Britain"

213 LIB-DEMS "Bollock to Brexit - Stop Brexit"

40 SNPS "Quit the UK - Stay with Europe"

17 N. Ireland "We won't agree on anything, ever."

40 WELSH "Maybe Leave - but now we are not so sure."

50 INDEPENDENTS "Leave a little bit"

650 MPs

The INDEPENDENTS might all migrate to the Lib-Dems.

The proper course of events is:

Recall Parliament

2nd Brexit Referendum

New Election.

BREXIT - STERLING COLLAPSE

Wednesday, 8 May 2019

THE UNION THAT DARE NOT SPEAK ITS NAME.

CONCORDE - ANGLO-FRENCH-EU ALLIANCE

This archive from 2004 reports early attempts to curb Internet Porn - The Curse of Spam - E-Mail taking 20 minutes to download - and, most relevant today - whether the European Union has improved our lives.

This essay below, tells it like it was - BB - (Before Brussels).

Do you still want to BREXIT?

http://www.noelhodson.com/index_files/newsarchivefeb04_dec04.htm

In and Out of Europe? – Tuesday 22^nd June 2004.

I am as xenophobic as the next man; particularly in this season of Euro-Football (

England

miraculously beat

Croatia

last night 4 goals to 2 – Hurrah!), and I may be more for independence than most; my slogan is Home-Rule-For-Brookside; the 24 houses cul-de-sac where I live. But two days ago, 20th June 2004, the newly enlarged European Union, which signed its first 25 member constitution, triggering every fear, in every European country, that has ever been conceived, concerning loss of sovereignty, loss of independence, loss of Home-Rule, loss of budgetary control, loss of self Defence, premature balding and etc. I have revisited my memories of Europe, before the Union was effective, to see if a return to the good old days would be welcome.

Before Brussels Bureaucrats, in 1969, my young family and I travelled many times by car across

France

. Most roads were in holes – so we bought a Renault 8, with sponge rubber suspension. There were few if any Auto-routes. We had to telephone to Manchester,

England

; which took two hours to connect and was routed via New York – and cost a fortune.

There was little if any roadside food or water on sale and lavatories required gymnastic and logistical skills involving two, urine flushed, porcelain footplates, gathering all loose clothing with one hand while beating away flies with the other, squatting and aiming into a stinking communal collection pot.

Germany

, the Berlin Wall and the Cold War divided East from West and all Europeans expected nuclear war any day. Children were advised, if they heard the nuclear bomb warnings, to put a paper bag over their heads and sit in a doorway.

Italy

had few functioning banks, requiring most transactions to be cash – which we Brits were not allowed by Exchange Controls to carry.

To cross Europe or conduct any business required five or six currencies, hedging in US dollars, borders, passport controls and endless queues and paperwork.

Spain

lived with 30% unemployment and around 40% illiteracy among women.

Portugal

was chronically poor; as was

Ireland

France

was under attack by Algerian terrorists,

Spain

by the Basques,

Britain

by the Irish Republicans and

Italy

and

Germany

by the Red Brigade.

Brits bathed only once a week, if that, and suspected deodorants would change their gender. Pregnant girls were locked away in terminal shame in convents, ruined for life, and the only available contraception, as recommended by Pius the Twelfth, was either Coitus Interruptus or the Rhythm Method, both of which added the spice of uncertainty to all in-depth relationships. Homosexuals were routinely beaten up, arrested, imprisoned and ruined.

As late as 1985, prior to EU Commissioner Martin Bangemann’s promotion of the European Information Society, it was difficult to telephone from Stockholm or Aberdeen to Rome or Madrid. Nokia did not make telephones.

For the paranoid, it was a great time. We could, with official approval, hate all foreigners, queers, coloureds and communists.

We yearned for the coming Apocalypse and Armageddon to punish the ungodly and feared Flying Saucers, Alien Invasions, The Yellow Peril and the Red Revolution.

We waited five months to be allowed to buy a telephone.

Do I want to go back to the good old days when Britain was Britain – Wooden Ships and Iron Men: when mad old Generals sent millions of young men to be slaughtered in European Wars, when we could choose the colour of our ration-books, pay The City whatever charges they imposed on a captive island population, save up for ten years to get married, live with our parents and eventually buy a washing machine, and tug our forelocks at the passing gentry – “God Bless you kind Sirs” - as they tossed a half-penny into our begging bowls?

I think not. I think - thanks all the same for the opportunity to revert - that I will go with the Union. That's the 550 million free-market European Union, promoted by Churchill since 1945 as The United States of Europe.

VOTE REMAIN ON 23rd May 2019 - in the MEP, EU elections.

(UK-Porn-bans are coming again on 23rd July 2019, when Onanistic users will have to be publicly listed - by the Porn Merchants, who promise not to blackmail anyone - Scouts' Honour).

Dear Marta, (in the USA)

19 March 2019

Jon Snow is a zealous social reformer and the seasoned long-term presenter of Channel 4 News. He has turned out to be a pro-EU Remainer. He is horrified by the utter lack of integrity among MPs and the habitual glib lying of the Brexiters – from PM Theresa May down to the lowest of the low – Farage. Snow’s father was a C of E Bishop.

Jeremy Corbyn and allies are 1960’s elderly soviet communists. He is a die-hard Brexit man because he thinks (wrongly) that the EU is a nest of greedy capitalist bankers, sucking the life-blood of the poor. It was Jeremy Corbyn who pushed through into law Article 50 (Withdrawal Agreement) – saying the UK leaves Europe on 29^th March. He did this while pretending to be a Remainer - in total contradiction to 80% of his Party Members. He is a sly and stubborn old man. Like Trump – he became Labour Leader via an accidental joke. He wants to smash the system and rebuild it as a communist state.

Brexit will lose the UK the equivalent of 7 million jobs -1/5^th to 1/6^th of our economy. It will bankrupt the UK. It is disastrous. The basic mechanism is that if/when we have to apply WTO rules – we HAVE to add tariffs ranging from 3% to 38% on the goods and services we sell to the World – and to the EU. Every marketing /sales director on earth says that we will lose the same percentage of export sales as we add to the tariffs: e.g. on cars and parts the tariff is 9.8%. Millions of jobs. The City of London, the jewel in our crown for hundreds of years, is migrating to the EU – now – today.

Why are the VIP Brexiters doing it? Ordinary dumb Leavers haven’t the faintest clue what they are doing. They get very huffy and insulted when told that on Brexit they are “as thick as two short planks”. I haven’t met a single Leaver – from the upper or lower classes who knows what a No-Deal Brexit is (walking away on WTO rules) – and/or what the WTO tariffs are – and /or how WTO trade disputes are resolved (in the WTO Court in Geneva). As Aaron Banks and Putin and Trump have proved, the herd vote from their confused “feelings”. Brains and facts are in very short supply. It is these ordinary folk who will suffer most and pay for the whole debacle.

VIP Leavers such as top-hatted Rees-Mogg and his ERG pals etc. are desperate to escape the EU tax-net closing on them. They (and most media owners) are ALL offshore – in tax-havens and by birthright they don’t pay tax “Only little people pay tax”. The EU courts are likely to overturn their cosy tax-free arrangements. There is about £2.3 trillion of UK assets in tax-havens. That’s a lot of loot. All of the VIP Brexiters have already acquired dual passports – moved their money into Europe or tax-havens – and are quitting London. They panic on to the EXIT door at any cost to the UK.

The consequences are both for trade – it will take at least ten years to re-negotiate our trade agreements with about 160 countries on 70,000 traded items – and for the United Kingdom. N. Ireland, Scotland and then Wales will quit the UK and join the EU. None of the Celts want to go down with the English ship run by a demented Mrs May or saboteur Mr Corbyn: we have no other vote options. London voted Remain – but it is in harness to the dumb, tattooed, shaven headed unemployed from the backward regions - who follow the great liars. The Dis-United-Kingdom.

Mrs May runs the Government (the Cabinet) – who are at last rebelling. Corbyn claims his strength from the 500,000 young voters who joined Labour on the promise of a Brave New World – not a collapse into rust-belt economics – gnawing home-grown raw vegetables. Their slogan now is “Love Corbyn – Hate Brexit”.

Our only hope before the 29^th March is The Civil Service and senior Remainers (The Deep State) obtaining a 21 month extension to Article 50 – and then in the interim convincing The People that Brexit really, really is disastrous – and then having a People’s Vote. Of our 650 MPs, 500 are Remainers – silenced by Mrs May’s bullying. The deep-state moves are in-hand now. The deeply, deeply, deeply stupid rush to economic suicide might yet be stopped. Who will emerge as a sane leader of our 650 MPs? We don’t know.

I comfort myself with the knowledge that at 76, I’ll probably survive pretty much as I am, until death at last brings blessed relief.

NEW YORKER INTERVIEWS AARON BANKS

Dear Lee and Noel,

I heard one of your veteran journalists—Jon Snow—being interviewed on our NPR yesterday. He described Brexit (which he opposes as an ill-conceived, deliberately deceptive throwback to nostalgia and worse) as the greatest threat since World War II. I don’t know Jon Snow, but he sounded sensible and grounded in solid history. Is there no foreseeable way to prevent this headlong disaster? Why is there such resistance to stopping it? Why the hell has Corbyn acted so irresponsibly? . Even a delay at this point would be preferable to May’s plan or a hard exit.

Inquiring minds want to know!!

Marta

PS: I ask these questions knowing I cannot answer why we can’t do anything to stop Donald Trump before and short of the 2020 elections. Partly it’s b/c the Republicans are so complicit and craven here. Maybe like your equivalents???
