Will the PM go back to the EU ? - Brexit Update 3 - Post Brexit

Daily Mail: Reports " Theresa May holds call with Donald Tusk as she considers delaying crunch Brexit vote so she can return to Brussels to have a 'handbag moment' and squeeze more concessions out of the EU "

Lets Get Real:

The PM has to find her inner Lady Thatcher, Mrs T would NEVER had taken the EU Deal, the PM has to get her handbag out and make it clear that the UK is not some third rate power, we are the UK and we do not take demands from Europe, we did not from WW1 to WW2 and we are not going to start now.   It is time for Mrs May to be a bloody stubborn woman, not make requests and be nice, hit the table and make it clear that if there is no new deal then the EU will not get its billions.    This is the time for the UK to stand strong, we have won in other difficult times, let us not fail now. 

Will there be a Conservative Leadership Contest ? Brexit Update 2 - Post Brexit

Sky News: Reports " Theresa May battles to keep Brexit deal alive as opponents circle..Theresa May is facing two more days of her deal being pored over in the Commons - but could delay the vote with little notice.  "

Lets Get Real:

IF the PM loses by over a hundred votes it will be very hard for the PM to stay on, she has lost her authority already, no one is afraid of her or the Chief Whip, the Conservative Party needs a leader who wants BREXIT and supports the vote on 2016.   It might be to late for Boris Johnson, he would be an risky leader, he might be good at a General Election but he could be a disaster as PM.   The elite hard remainers in the news stations are not hiding their contempt for the voter, they think Brexit supporters are idiots who do not understand the the real world, it could be the elite who do not understand the old South Wales mining areas, they have been LEFT BEHIND by the Global World.   It might be their own fault, they have always supported Labour, and did not get the fact that mines no longer made money, no matter what kind of community you have, if brass is no longer being made an industry will go under.   South Wales was left behind, after the coal mining strike of the 1980s, that is why the voted out of the EU, new buildings do no make business. 

The Brexit Deal and the House of Commons - Brexit Update 1 - Post Brexit

BBC News: Reports " The Commons vote on Tuesday will not be delayed, the Brexit Secretary has said, amid growing calls for the PM to go back to Brussels to renegotiate.  "

Lets Get Real:

It is reported that the PM and No 10 will look at the House of Commons maths on Monday night, if the numbers are not good the PM should scrap the vote on Tuesday, the PM should return to the EU and say that the backstop has to go, it will never pass the House of Commons, the DUP needs to be bought back on board and the HARD BREXIT supporters have to be given a bone, they need some reason to vote for a reformed DEAL.    The Labour Party is keeping its cards close to its chest, Jeremy Corbyn is a hard brexit supporter but he leads a Party that has been taken over by remainers!!  The next week will be interesting, there are so many options, hard to see any getting passed the House of Commons. 

Will the Brexit Vote Go Ahead ? - Part 2 - Brexit Update 1 - Post Brexit

Daily Mail: Reports " Theresa May's make your mind up Monday: PM will decide next week whether to pull the crunch Brexit vote amid Cabinet fears of a heavy cabinet defeat  "

Lets Get Real:

The PM needs to pull the Brexit Deal, it will not pass, and could bring down the Conservative Government, the EU does watch UK News, they know that if there is not be a No Deal Brexit then they have to give more concessions.  Mrs May has to go to the EU and find her inner Lady Thatcher, just say the UK has demands, they are not open to debate, discussion, the Northern Irish Backstop has to GO, also the Government should demand that the UK does not have to pay billions to the EU.   If the PM wants to remain in No 10 then she has to be tough, be a bloody stubborn woman, start throwing her handbag about as Lady T would have done. This is the time for the UK PM to remind the EU that the UK is the UK it is not some small country, we make demands, we do not take demands. 

The Russian Investigation - Trump Era

BBC News: Reports " President Donald Trump's ex-lawyer has given substantial help on how Russian nationals tried to affect the 2016 election, a legal memo has revealed.  "

Lets Get Real:

This blog has no time for President Trump, it has been clear in that, but the latest information from the special prosecutor does not reach the level of impeachment, having deals with Russia is NOT A CRIME, the President has the right to say what he likes in public, if the special prosecutor is trying to make a case that the Twitter feed of POTUS is illegal the will be laughed out of town.   CNN is acting as if this is Watergate, they have given up being objective a long time ago.   The question is simple, will the Republicans in the House or Senate stop supporting Trump, the answer is NO, the Trump is base is to powerful.   The liberal elite media want to impeach Trump no matter what, the old hands in the Democratic Party will recall that the Republicans tried to impeach Bill Clinton only with Republican votes, the President was cleared by the Senate and the Republicans lost seats in the House.  The LIBERAL BASE might need feeding, but the Democrats have to think about 2020, they do not want to give the impression that their sole interest in getting at Trump.   The ONLY way that POTUS could come under threat is if he lied under oath, anything else is BS, so sad to see CNN go down the toilet. 

Will there be a Vote on Tuesday December 11th ? - Brexit Update - Post Brexit

BBC News: Reports " A senior Tory MP says he would welcome a delay in next week's Commons Brexit vote, if it would help address concerns over the controversial backstop.  "

Lets Get Real:

As reported in the The Sun, The Daily Mail and The Times, the option of not having a vote on December 11th is on the table.   The PM should run with this strategy, it is bad politics to lose control of your future actions, the PM should go back to the EU and say the DEAL is not GOOD ENOUGH, that the UK has demands, and they are not up to debate, the Northern Irish Backstop has to go, it in many respects removes Northern Ireland from the UK, that is not what Northern Ireland wants at the present.  The PM has to go gain control of her Party, if being friendly does not work she should try FEAR, backbench MPs should always be afraid of the Chief Whip and No 10, once you lose that it is hard to govern, just ask Sir John Major. 

The INF Treaty and President Trump - Trump Era

Washington Post: Has an article by former President Gorbachev of the USSR and former US Secretary of State George Shultz, the article states the following on INF Treaty, " We participated in INF negotiations. Abandoning it threatens our very existence. "

Lets Get Real:

The problem is that we do not have the above great statesmen in office any more, we face a very different political climate, the Russians are cheating and China is becoming a bigger threat.   Russia under Putin is trying to get the USSR back, piece by piece, it can be argued that President Reagan himself would have been concerned about Russian cheating and would have scrapped the deal if the Russians did not back off.   The Washington Elite, well the press and TV as so anti Trump they will use anything to attack him, the press and TV have pushed the message that Bush 41 was better than Trump because he was willing talk to the other side, what they mean is that he broke his pledge on no new taxes, that elite and the Democrats just like taxes and Republican Presidents who give in to them.   Gorbachev and Shultz represent great leaders of a bygone Era, this wish blog wishes that President Reagan was still around and in office, that his Chief of Staff was James Baker, his VP was Bush 41 and the Secretary of State was George Shultz, while President Gorbachev was President of a reformed Russia.   It sad but we have to deal with events are they are, not as we wish.
