No TV Debates - Campaign Trail 16 - GE2017

Guardian: Reports " Jeremy Corbyn will not take part in TV debate without Theresa May..Corbyn’s spokesman says it is extraordinary that PM feels unable to face debate with leader of ‘only other possible government "

Lets Get Real:

Jeremy Corbyn is a FOOL, he has fallen in to the Conservative TRAP, the Conservatives can now say that since Corbyn will not appear with the other opposition candidates then the PM will not appear.   The Corbyn Campaign better up its game or it will go down to the biggest defeat in UK political history, the UK will become a ONE PARTY state in till 2030.  The Conservatives have to stress that Corbyn is a risk to national security, that he would rise the taxes of the people, that it is always the Middle Class that get hit when there is a Labour Government.  Also he will betray the EU vote in 2016, Corbyn is the best asset the Conservatives have at the moment. 

Is North Korea planning for WAR ? - North Korean Crisis

Daily Mail: Reports " Kim prepares for war: North Korean leader takes the salute as his army fires rockets and torpedoes at mock enemy warships during country's 'largest ever' live-fire artillery drills  "

Lets Get Real:

With both the US and North Korea doing War drills it only takes a mistake to start a war, the US and South Korea have to be careful that they do not talk themselves in to War, the worry is that North Korea takes the US drills as the first stages of war planning.  Of courses the US and South Korean drills can not be called off, that would be what North Korea wants and blackmail would win, the US and South Korea should increase it defence skills, make clear that the US and its allies will do what it takes to defend the alliance in Asia.  The Trump Oval should be on the phone to China, telling them they need to be even tougher on North Korea. On the UK's news shows stated that the North Korean Crisis could be compared to the Cuban Missile Crisis of 1962, IF it is its a slow Crisis, lets hope it remains below boiling. 

New Polls - Conservative LEAD - Campaign Trail 15 - GE2017

UK Polling Report: Reports " The Standard released their first Ipsos MORI poll of the campaign today. Topline figures with changes from MORI’s last pre-campaign poll are CON 49%(+6), LAB 26%(-4), LDEM 13%(nc), UKIP 4%(-2)...Panelbase also put out their first campaign poll today. Topline figures there are very much in line with other companies, with topline figures of CON 49%, LAB 27%, LD 10%, UKIP 5% "

Lets Get Real:

Thus two polls that have the Conservative Party on 49%, that is not a bad start for a six week Campaign.  It will be interesting to see the polls after the political parties release their manifestos, that might effect the polls, the Labour Party has a MAJOR PROBLEM, the leader does not support having nuclear weapons and would never use them if he become the PM.   The Conservatives and the Liberal Democrats support the UK having its nuclear weapons, thus Labour offers a good target over the next six weeks, the UK voter wants to be protected from the likes of North Korea, and thus do not trust LABOUR, no matter how much the put up the wages of Nurses and Doctors.  On the whole a good week for the Conservatives. 

North Korean Update - North Korean Crisis

BBC News: Reports " The US military's top commander in the Pacific has said an advanced missile defence system in South Korea aims to bring North Korean leader Kim Jong-un "to his senses, not to his knees". "

Lets Get Real:

The hope by the Trump Administration is that North Korea gets a clear message, this far and no further when it comes to its testing of nuclear devices and its ICBM's.   The problem is that North Korea might have stopped listening even to its biggest ally in the region, China.   It is interesting to postulate what North Korea wants, does it want direct talks with the US, does it want food for its people, thus far in public North Korea has been quiet on that issue.   Of course the taking of American hostages could be a crude attempt to get the US to talk to it directly, to show that a nuclear powered North Korea can make even the might US listen.   Thus it would be interesting to send Former President, Bill Clinton to Asia, that might happen to contain a visit to North Korea, this could lead to back channel talks.
