CYCLOPS Returns Jan 5th

Sorry for my absence. Travels,Boat,Grand Kids,Flu 

Not really missed much except for UK election rout,Demise of Europes oldest Labour Party, Trump Impeachment,Pelosi playing Trump and Mcconnel to a fare thee well,Mourinho turning Spurs around-despite playing Aurier and absence of Hugo lloris. And Oh yes Trump wagging the dog.The last a bit extreme; assassinating Iranian general Soleimani in order to get Netanyahu re elected and to cover up Ivanka's Baku Trump Tower deal with the General's construction company.

This post concludes with the following questions:

Given this and putting yourself in Boris' shoes. 

Why on earth would you oppose a second Scottish Independance vote?Followed by one a few years down the road for a United Ireland?

In order to "Preserve the Union"?

Instead of the English subsidising the Scots and Ulstermen why not let that honour be given to the beloved EU?

I hope that encourages at least a few of you to read on.

                                                                                                                                                                                                Got first part of that prediction wrong .

              But stand by the rest.We will see.

The day after the poll results were finalised, Cyclop read the following wonderful piece by Janice Turner in the London Times.

                "Corbyn is clueless about the working class"

She excoriated Corbyn and his ilk.Ending with this rallying cry:

 "It is time for every dispossessed Labour member who left because of antisemitism or Momentum bullying to rejoin. .....Let centrist entryism begin."

 

Cyclops was moved to write to the Times in his birth name

             Agree;  this was brilliant. From the heart.

     I can visualise her at kitchen table PC just flowing.

     It may be too late,but back into the Valley of Labour we must charge🏇🏼🌺🙋‍♂️

     Workers by HAND and by BRAIN. 

     Jew and Gentile, Hindu and Muslim, Indigenous and Foreign Born; 

     Social Democrats and Democratic Socialists.  Decent progressives all.

      Let us join together as zealous citizens, extreme in our reasonableness,

       passionate in our moderation

      Back to the party whence we came, faith of our fathers.

      A debt to honour.Children of Atlee and Wilson, Proud to Repay.

                                         EXPEL THE STALINISTS

                          AVANTI                MARCHAN                       THEY SHALL NOT PASS  

            The Times algorithm let my comment stand 

Emotional blighter that Cyclops ne Kuczynski.

ALAS 20 years of formal education and 60 of "seeing it as it is"  soon took its toll.

                                                                                                                         

The Bonkers Bonker victory is even more dramatic than it appears.                           

 https://www.bbc.com/news/election/2019/results/england

• Conservative

   

  365 seats to Labour 203 with a majority over all parties of 86.
• Take out the 59[6 Tory and ONE Labour] SCOTTISH seats after Scotland leaves the Union and Tory overall majority goes up to 139
• After Irish unification-- 18 seats in Ulster-- it goes to 157
• From a total now of 650--77=  573 seats left in the Westminster[now English/Welsh] Parliament.

• In Northern Ireland,for the first time in history Irish Republican won more Westminster seats than the  Unionists
• 10 to 8  the DUP only beat Sinn Fein by a single seat.
• All the Irish parties supported staying in the EU
• A united Ireland far behind?

• Of the 533 seats in ENGLAND:Tories 345 vs Labour 180
• 2:1    
• Labour only won in Wales  22 seats to Tories 14 Plaid 4  

• Labour fiasco--deserved.
• Worst outcome since any one still sentient was born.
• And all this before parliamentary redistricting for the next election.
• The independant Boundary Commission has recommended that Wales loses 11 of its 40 seats.All Labour.
• There goes the neighborhood.

Given this and putting yourself in Boris' shoes. 

Why on earth would you oppose a second Scottish Independance vote?Followed by one a few years down the road for a United Ireland?
