Cabinet reshuffle on the Cards - After local Elections

Sky News: Reports  " Boris Johnson expected to reshuffle cabinet before summer, say PM's allies...The Conservative Party sustained substantial losses in the local elections on Thursday, including some key London councils. Partygate and the cost of living were the main issues on the doorstep, with Boris Johnson getting much of the blame for the results.  "

Lets Get Real:

The heavy mob have not come around yet to thrown the PM out of office, the PM is very lucky, as Guido Fawkes notes the  Opposition Leader is facing questions about his drinking in Durham during lockdown the elite left wing press have gone quiet on the issue, what a great shock.  One should always recall that the elite left wing media is very REMAIN when it comes to BREXIT, the BBC had a nervous breakdown, many think it has not recovered and thus hate the Conservatives MORE than usual and have placed a political target on Boris, that mega hype about 10 Downing Parties will go quiet for a while, the press will want to see what the police say about Sir Keir, if they fine him, expect the press to come to his defence, the press never changes its spots.  The Daily Mail reports that Sir Keir has stated he will have to resign if fined, this blog will believe that when it happens. 

People in Glass Houses Should not throw stones - Keir Starmer Drinking - After COVID - 19

BBC News: Reports " Keir Starmer's Durham drink - what were the rules?..Durham Police has announced that it is opening an investigation into potential breaches of Covid regulations at a gathering in the city on 30 April 2021.  "

Lets Get Real:

The Labour Party and Sir Keir has been caught out, he was caught on mobile video drinking and in the company of the Deputy Leader and thirty other people.  Also the take way cost over 200 pounds, if that is not a PARTY, then this blog does not know what a PARTY IS ( As a policy this blogger never goes to such events ).  The Labour Leader has made Parties at No 10 the only thing that he talked about for weeks, even suggested that the PM should resign because he was being investigated, so when will Sir Keir; he a former Director of Prosecutions should have KNOW the law; going to resign, of course he is not going to resign, when the shoe is on the other foot, like all politicians the law should be different in his case, a poor Conservative MP had to resign for watching porn by accident at first and the 2nd time by choice, having a drink is not a criminal offense, even when it committed by Sir Sir Keir, also celebrating your birthday should not be a criminal offence, the Met trying to divert attention from their bad apples.   The COVID - 19 rules were crazy, and Sir Keir and Boris having a celebration should not be a criminal issue, 10 Downing Street should ask its lawyers to go to Court to have the 50 pound sanction revoked and the Durham Police should let Sir Keir off the hook and make a stand for common sense. 

UK will support Finland and Sweden if in WAR WITH RUSSIA - Ukraine - Russian War - New Cold War 2

Sky News - Live Blog: Reports the following in its 2.22pm post, " 'Inconceivable' UK would not support Finland or Sweden if they were attacked....In a joint news conference with his Finnish counterpart, Defence Secretary Ben Wallace has said the UK would come to Finland's aid in the event of an attack...."It's inconceivable that Britain would not come to the support of Finland or Sweden if it was ever attacked," Mr Wallace said.  "

Lets Get Real:

One can see why there is TALK of the Defence Secretary being a future leadership candidate when PM Johnson is forced out because of Partygate, as Pre Wars go the Defence Secretary has said the right thing and he never attended  Party in the LAST TWO YEARS.  The reason that the Conservative backbenchers have not moved to remove the PM is that there is no natural successor, the Chancellor got caught up in the party gates mess and was fined, and the tax status of his wife did not help.  Thus it look like it is down to the Defence Secretary or Foreign Secretary, if you have others running it will make the process last longer, this is a time of Crisis, and there is no Churchills or Thatcher's on the backbenches, it is not the time for on the job training.

EU afraid to CUT OFF Russian Gas - Latest on Sanctions- Russian Gas - Russian - Ukraine War - New Cold War 2

BBC News - Live Blog: Reports in its 12.13pm post the following, " There is no consensus among the EU's 27 members on winding down the use of Russian natural gas - a fuel which has not yet been targeted by EU sanctions " 

Lets Get Real:

The main reason that the EU cannot cancel Russian Gas is that some members need the GAS to keep their economies  going on, the main culprit is Germany and it will take a some time for Berlin to find other sources to replace the Russian Gas.  The money that Berlin is sending to Russia is BLOOD MONEY, the reason being that Putin funds his war in the Ukraine with the money from Germany.  Thus in a indirect manner Berlin is supporting genocide of the people of the Ukraine.  The Germans should bend their heads down in SHAME, have they learned nothing from World War 2, the Kremlin must laughing its backside off.  The EU has shown in many respects a UNITED FRONT, with some harsh sanctions on Russia, but they have failed to take down PUTIN by saying NO to Russian Gas. 

Is Putin about to declare WAR on the Ukraine ? - Russian - Ukraine War - New Cold War 2

Sky News - Live Blog: Reports the following in its 2.08pm post, " Putin could formally declare war on Ukraine on 9 May - report.....Mr Putin could officially declare war on Ukraine as soon as 9 May - known as "Victory Day" in Russia - according to CNN.  "

Lets Get Real:

One can see why President Putin would do this, the Russian Army has suffered heavy loses in the Ukraine, not something you can hide forever, thus the PR aim will be to make the Russian people support the WAR, even if its against their better judgement, also it will be interesting to see who he declares WAR ON, will it only be the Ukraine, could Putin want to expand his WAR AIMS, and go for Moldova and be a even greater THREAT to NATO Countries, could Putin warn NATO that any more military support for Ukraine could lead Putin to declare WAR on individual NATO Countries OR on NATO itself.  The declaration of WAR will be very risky for Putin, if he fails, his literal head could be on the chopping block, let's recall what happened to Tsar Nicholas 11 and his family in Siberia in 1918.  Thus will Putin really take that risk, and how far is he willing to push it, would he ever use WMD in Ukraine, low level nuclear weapons, its endless the ways Putin could cause death and destruction in Europe.  NATO better be ready for all things, Putin is after all EX KGB. 

POTUS on Abortion Rights in the US - Mid Terms November - Biden Era

White House: Statement by President Biden on the leak 1st draft ruling of the US Supreme Court when it comes to Roe v Wade, " First, my administration argued strongly before the Court in defense of Roe v. Wade. We said that Roe is based on “a long line of precedent recognizing ‘the Fourteenth Amendment’s concept of personal liberty’… against government interference with intensely personal decisions.” I believe that a woman’s right to choose is fundamental, Roe has been the law of the land for almost fifty years, and basic fairness and the stability of our law demand that it not be overturned......Second, shortly after the enactment of Texas law SB 8 and other laws restricting women’s reproductive rights, I directed my Gender Policy Council and White House Counsel’s Office to prepare options for an Administration response to the continued attack on abortion and reproductive rights, under a variety of possible outcomes in the cases pending before the Supreme Court. We will be ready when any ruling is issued.....Third, if the Court does overturn Roe, it will fall on our nation’s elected officials at all levels of government to protect a woman’s right to choose. And it will fall on voters to elect pro-choice officials this November.  At the federal level, we will need more pro-choice Senators and a pro-choice majority in the House to adopt legislation that codifies Roe, which I will work to pass and sign into law. "

Lets Get Real:

Thus expect the Democrats and the liberal elite press to run with this story in till the Supreme Court releases its final view in June or early July.  One would consider that because there has been a LEAK, then the Court should acting in a faster manner, otherwise there will be MORE LEAKS, that is the last thing the US Supreme Court needs.  If the US Supreme Court does negate Roe v Wade then as stated the Conservative States will move to ban abortion in ALL CASES, while Liberal States such as New York and California will have abortion on demand.  This blog has for years supported abortion on demand, that might even be to liberal for some liberals in the US, as this blog sees this is a matter of political faith, the Government should not be telling women when and if they can have a abortion, in most cases they are poor and cannot afford to have a child or due to criminal action they have suffered they have a child, thus its up to the woman and her Doctor to decide.  The Democrats will demagogue the issue in till November Mid Terms, and the results could clear the issue of  Biden's chances in 2024. And to think Biden is a good Roman Catholic but supports abortion, a demagogue as President Reagan stated in his diaries. 

Abortion Rights UNDER THREAT from US Supreme Court - Mid Terms - Biden Era

BBC News: Reports  " Roe v Wade: US Supreme Court may overturn abortion rights, leak suggests "

Lets Get Real:

The US Supreme Court would be committing a great error to overturn Roe v Wade, it is the most Classical Liberal ACT, as in the most Conservative, it places the decision in the hands of the woman and her Doctor.  Thus a individual issue, that is what Conservative should really support, the Court if it does the above, moves the issue in to the political arena, There will be Conservative States that BAN ALL abortion, while Liberal States will have abortion on demand.  Also the Democrats will roll with this issue in the November Mid Terms if the above is the final decision of the US Supreme Court, and Biden should he run in 24 will use this issue against his Republican opponent.   The Republicans should wake up and smell the coffee, the above is bad politics and bad morality.  One hopes they change their minds on this subject.
