In what at first looks like another example of the well-known phenomenon of "Jewish paranoia," the former Chief Rabbi of England, Lord Jonathan Sacks, has claimed that Jews will have to flee the UK if Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn is elected Prime Minister of the UK.
If there were any hopes that the Labour Party would start doing its job again by representing the interests of the British working class, they have been destroyed by Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn's latest speech on Brexit.
Filmmaker and Alternative Right contributor Richard Wolstencroft delays his trip to the country to join Andy Nowicki and Colin Liddell to discuss the recent UK general election that defied predictions.
Starting off with a 20-point lead in the opinion polls, Prime Minister Theresa May was counting on an easy landslide victory to increase her Parliamentary majority and strengthen her hand in forthcoming Brexit negotiations. In the event, she ended up being humiliated by the "unelectable" Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn, stripped of her majority, and forced to get down on her knees to the Democratic Unionist Party (DUP) in order to stay in government.
Our panelists uncover what went wrong with May's campaign, and take a closer look at the party that holds the balance of power, Northern Ireland's DUP, a charming throwback to what political parties used to be like when they pursued the interests of their voters.
The UK general election, which was looking so boring for so long, finally got interesting.
First, let me say that Theresa May’s decision to hold the election was the right one. At the time she was miles ahead in the opinion polls, but her party only had a very narrow majority. To go into Brexit negotiations with such a slim majority would have placed her in a position of weakness with the EU. Britain’s exit promises to be a stormy one, and the government’s popularity is sure to fluctuate.
Colin Liddell comments on the fake democratic choice of the UK General Election.
When Prime Minister Theresa May called a general election several weeks ago, her Conservative Party was leading the opposition Labour Party by over 20 points in opinion polls. This was supposed to translate into a landslide victory and a massive majority in Parliament, but a weak campaign by May and a restless mood in the country has helped her main opponent, Labour's Jeremy Corbyn, to narrow the gap.
The murder of the Batley and Spen Labour MP, Jo Cox, a forty one-year-old mother of two, and a professional campaigner from her student days, who was shot and stabbed in an altercation in Birstall, near Leeds, is a profoundly tragic event, which has halted organised political debate across the country following her death last week.
Earlier this week a number of elections below the UK state parliamentary level were held in Britain. This included elections for the Scottish Parliament, the Welsh Assembly, some local councils, and the mayor of London.
Usually midterm elections favour the chief opposition party, which in this case is the Labour Party, with its recently-elected leader, the extreme Leftist, Jeremy Corbyn. This time they didn’t. Instead of winning hundreds of council seats as is usual, Labour actually lost a handful, as well as control of one council Dudley in the West Midlands (population 312,900 – 93% White).
