The Conservative Government vs. The BBC - Post 2015 Election

Telegraph - Politics Live: Reports " Tories 'declare war on BBC' with John Whittingdale appointment..All the latest as the Prime Minister forms his government, with John Whittingdale, the former chair of the DCMS committee and critic of the BBC, is appointed as Culture Secretary "

Lets Get Real:

It is about time that the BBC was taken down a peg or two, its always anti Conservative, the problem for the BBC is what they consider objective is more left wing than most people would consider normal.    The BBC should take adverts, it should have to sell in an open market.   The BBC is to big, you need a cut down BBC, less money spent reality shows, with the exception of the Lord Sugar show, in that you learn something about business, it was good to hear that Lord S had resigned from the Labour Party.   The BBC should be doing more shows like Doctor Who and Torchwood.    Who watches snooker for god sake!! Does there have to be Golf on, its a man hitting a ball at the end of the day, lets not even start on football or tennis!.    About time that a true Conservative Government dealt with the BBC. 

The Labour Leadership Election - Post 2015 Election

Guardian - Politics Live: Reports in its 6.29pm post the following, "  Harriet Harman is reportedly explaining the new leadership election rules to the PLP. She says the party needs to listen long and hard to the candidates who lost and draw on what they were told by the electorate. "

Lets Get Real:

The question is will the Labour Party ask the RIGHT questions, will understand in the real world why it lost, does it want to understand.   The old left arguments do no work, well in the UK they don't, we are all Thatcher's children in that sense.   The Ed Miliband agenda was attacking the rich, more welfare, the UK debt would have gone up, and the trade unions would have had more power.    The Blair agenda was the reverse of the above, the Labour Party under Blair got the UK voter, while modern Labour does not even understand itself, never mind the voter.    The soul searching will take time, lets hope Labour understands the question before the answer. 

The Miliband Brothers at WAR - Post 2015 Election

The Daily Mail: Reports " David Miliband's revenge: Former foreign secretary slams younger brother Ed for 'backwards' Labour campaign which failed to woo the middle classes "

Lets Get Real:

THE Labour Party is in a state of civil war, there are those in THE Blair Camp that see that Labour has to support people that want to get on in life, it can not go back to attacking the rich and expect to win, a] there are never enough rich people to tax, and b] the middle class want to own their own houses and see their family getting ahead. The left wing agenda of Ed Miliband was all about attacking the rich, creating the impression that it was wrong to want to get ahead.    The Labour Party should hire Tony Blair or the Dark Prince himself, Lord Mandelson to set a new road for Labour, the Labour Party needs BLAIR more than Blair needs the Labour Party. 

Miliband vs Miliband - The Brothers fight - Post 2015 Election

BBC News: Reports " Ex-Foreign Secretary David Miliband has criticised his brother Ed's leadership of the Labour Party, saying voters "did not want what was being offered".  "

Lets Get Real:

One has to respect Mr David Miliband for stating for stating that Ed Miliband is his brother and would remain so, but on the other hand he is placing the political knife in more, what he is saying is blunt terms is that the wrong brother got the job of Labour Leader and the right brother would have had the right agenda for Labour to win in the 2015 Election.   The Labour Party has to return to the Blair agenda, people want to get on, they want a safety net for those that fall between the cracks of a modern economy, but that should not be a life style choice for people.   The UK voter wants the Government to be tough on welfare, its harsh but the life is not fair, why should those aged between 18 - 21 get benefits if they have not worked and never plan to work.   The UK economy has come back due to the economy agenda of the Cameron government, lets push harder, this is the time to get the UK back at the top of the economic leadership of the EU and the World economy.

Lets Get Real:

The new government has to get moving fast, it only has a majority of 12, so lets get the EU Vote for 2017 through the House of Commons, lets change the size of seats in the House of Commons so its fair to the Conservative Party, also it should give the Conservatives 20 more seats at the next election.   The welfare cuts will be hard, and the left, the BBC, Guardian will fight the government through left wing PR.   Also lets get the economy moving, cut taxes and pass a law that prevents tax hikes.   As the Labour Party and the Liberal Democrats are having internal fights lets show the Country that the Conservative Party is united and moving the agenda as stated in the 2015 election, 

The FUTURE for Labour - Election 2015

Telegraph: Reports " Labour is facing at least a decade in the wilderness, party grandees warn...Tony Blair, John Prescott and Lord Mandelson lead criticism of Ed Miliband's failed strategy, as concern grows for the future of the Labour party  "

Lets Get Real:

IT IS BAD FOR Labour, but it can return, it needs a new leader in the mold of Tony Blair, in other words a Conservative who happens to be Labour, this is not going to be easy, the old left and the trade unions are going to shout for a more left wing Party, if Labour voters go that way they will be out of power for a political generation, they have tried left wing theory with Ed Miliband, it did not work and was the wrong argument for the UK voter.    The Labour leadership fight should take a long time, find someone fresh not part of the Blair and Brown fight, also not part of the Miliband Shadow Cabinet.  Curious question, who are the new Shadow Chancellor and Shadow Foreign Secretary?   With Greece going bust and the threat of IS, the Labour Party needs a front bench or the Conservative Government will not face any opposition. 

The Dark Prince Returns - Lord Mandelson - Election 2015

Guardian - Politics Live: Reports in its 10.51am post the following, " Mandelson said that Ed Miliband’s decision to ditch New Labour was “a terrible mistake”.....Mandelson said Miliband’s “predators v producers” analysis of the business world was “completely useless” "

Lets Get Real:

The Labour Party if it wants to win the 2020 General Election has to return to the Blair agenda, people want to be successful, they are not keen on people being on welfare forever, they want a Political Party to understand the REAL WORLD, understand the economy, how it really works, it wants a friendly government and business relationship, people want to buy their own homes.   The above is what people WANT,  the Ed Miliband agenda was what people should want if they really knew it, a left wing government in the hands of the Unions.   Time for Labour to get OVER IRAQ as stated in my previous post and get the old New Labour hands to run the Labour Party.
