Change of management UK

So the people have spoken, the interminable election campaign has finally ended, and we now have a Labour government with a massive majority. This will make little difference as the new government is wedded to the same managerial approach to politics as were the Conservatives. So we have to ask whether there will be any meaningful changes under the new regime.

It is to be expected that Labour will be more willing to fund public services and the NHS, possibly discovering some extra sources of taxation to achieve this end. They will be more zealous in implementing the Net Zero project, so we can expect our electricity bills to rise, with possible power cuts due to the greater dependence on unreliable sources of power. The promotion of woke policies will continue unabated, so expect further denigration of our culture and history, and capitulation to ever more grotesque demands of favoured minorities at the expense of the rights and interests of the majority. Given Labour’s obsessive enthusiasm for more ‘diversity’ it is inevitable that immigration, both legal and illegal, will continue at a very high level.

It was to be hoped that Reform UK would succeed in providing an alternative parliamentary political platform to the consensus embraced by the traditional parties. With over four million votes received, they came out in third place but achieved only five MPs. However, this was still significantly better than their predecessors, and will allow a much needed challenge to the prevailing political orthodoxy to be voiced in parliament for the first time.

One surprise outcome was the election of four MPs, operating as a front for a somewhat shadowy and previously little known group, Muslim Vote. Their platform was entirely based on the conflict in the Middle East, and totally ignored domestic issues. It is likely that their objectives will soon broaden to promote exclusively Islamic interests and values, previously a regressive and partisan agenda cynically and opportunistically pursued by the Labour Party. They came very close to winning several more Labour held seats, so militant Islamists will now conclude they can achieve their aims without the assistance and support of virtue signalling leftist agitators.

It is hoped that during the next few years the British electorate finally wake up to the threat they face from the subversives within the political establishment.
