Breakthrough between LONDON and DUBLIN - Brexit Update 1 - General Election 2019


Lets Get Real:

This blog got it wrong it seems, there seems that there could be an agreement between Ireland and the UK.  As with most political commutators this blog would have liked to have been a fly in the room when the Irish and UK PM's meet to thrash out the issue.   The question is who has given concessions, will the DUP buy in to it, or will they reject the deal and thus allow the extreme Brexit supporters off the hook and to vote against the DEAL.  The full details of the plan should be leaked in the next few hours,  then we should have a clear picture, will this plan fly or fly to close to the Sun and come down in the Water.

Is there still hope of a BREXIT DEAL? - Brexit Update 4 - General Election 2019


Lets Get Real:

This is a good strategic move by PM Boris, he can blame the Irish and the Germans for the breakdown of talks, he can argue that HUBRIS has overtaken the Irish and Germans.   Once the UK is out of the EU, it will be the Irish that suffer, let's see how much the German taxpayer wants to bail out the Irish economy again.  Also since the UK will not place customs facilities near the border it will be up to the Republic Ireland, they have stated they will not, they will be placed under pressure by the EU to have some kind of customs structure, as the EU single markets would be damaged.  The losers in the long term will be the Irish and the Germans.  The UK will be fine. 

UK Voter supports a NO DEAL BREXIT - Breix Update 3 - General Election 2019


Lets Get Real:

The UK voter will like the challenge of telling the EU to bugger off, there will be a few troubling spots on they way, but as with any change they can be ironed out over time.  The Conservatives have to play in to theme, of US the UK against those in Europe and at home who want to be run from Brussels, thus the Surrender Act.  The UK has always done well when faced with troubling aspects, it can be argued that we are at our BEST when faced with fraught developments.  Think Dad's Army ( TV Series ), at Wars and Royal events we have no equal. 

The Road to a NO DEAL BREXIT - Brexit Update 2 - General Election 2019


Lets Get Real:

The Conservative Party should get ready for a short and sharp general election, the main aspect of the Conservative manifesto should be the that the UK will leave the EU without a deal and that the UK can prosper in the long term and keep faith with democracy.   The main target for the Conservatives should be the Labour Leader Jeremy Corbyn, he is the least liked opposition leader in years and is running a anti Jewish Party, without much effort to remove this stain.   Also he is a Communist, he wants to take over large areas of the UK economy, he wants to return the UK back to the 1970s, over powerful unions and never ending strikes.   

A No Deal Brexit General Election - Brexit Update 1 - General Election 2019


Lets Get Real:

It is all over except except for the set procedure, the Queen's speech is next week, then the Surrender Act forces the Government to ask the EU for an extension and then there will be a general election.   It seems that the EU will grant an extension, under the illusion that this will work for them, that would be a mistake, PM Boris will go in to the general election under a NO DEAL BREXIT, while the Labour Party will be roadkill in the middle, they seem to have forgotten that the average voter has the attention span of 15 seconds, if that, while the Liberal Democrats will be clear in wanting to revoke Article 50.  Prediction is a risky business, let's recall the Trump victory in 2016 and the failed election by PM May, thus this blog is predicting that the Conservatives will win a BIG MAJORITY, based on a no deal Brexit.  The EU will wish it had taken the Boris plan, sometimes hubris overtakes institutions.

The Boris Brexit - Brexit Update 1 - General Election 2019


Lets Get Real:

It seems PM Boris is really trying to get a DEAL, the question is how many more concessions can he make without losing the DUP and the Hard Brexit MPs, one assumes that there is a strategy, that 10 Downing Street has been in discussions with its allies to see what their backstop is.  The point is getting the DEAL through the House of Commons and the EU.  Also how will PM Boris negate the Surrender Act if he can not get a DEAL.  The next 10 days will be very interesting. 

Trump on China, Ukraine and the Bidens - US Election 2020


Lets Get Real:

One thing about POTUS, he really does not give a d-m, he is so used to reality TV that he is taking the format of reality to the White House.  What is shocking, is that the Party of Reagan has not draw a line in the sand, the Ukraine crisis is about US national security and the defence of the Ukraine against the Russian Bear.   Today POTUS asked China to investigate the Bidens, this is illegal, and Trump does not care, one has to ask, is he so self deluded or has the Republican Party by the political balls, there is few resistance to Trump from the GOP, also over the past few days, the Ukraine has dragged in the VP, Attorney General Barr and the Secretary of State, so the 25th Amendment is out.  POTUS is making Washington D.C a laughing stock, what will it take for the Republican Senate to remove Trump, as it seems that the VP is implicated in the crisis, there is no way that Republicans would ever allow the Speaker of the House to get in shouting distance of the Oval Office.  What a FARCE, poor US.
