Anticipation — 4 Comments

  1. There’s a definite trend in voters becoming pissed off with their traditional parties in many countries, causing new ones finally to get a chance to win some votes/seats, if not power. It’s certainly rattling the old parties, not before time as they seem too comfortable just taking turns while delivering little.
    In the UK, the Reform Party, spawned by Brexit, is making waves and gains, the old established ones are struggling to produce answers which the electorate will accept. Because Reform seems to be saying the things that folk are quietly thinking (because saying it in polite company isn’t politically correct), they’re gathering votes, often from folk who wouldn’t admit to voting Reform. Bit like all the silent Trump voters in the USA. Bring it on.

    • Certainly a common international news item these days seems to be along the lines of “Shock as far right candidate tops the polls”. It’s no harm whatsoever to rattle the cages of the current establishment.

  2. The Workers’ Party and the Bosses’ Party. See the last sentence in Animal Farm.
    And to wind up the far, hard left do not use word Nazi. They were National Socialists. Stalin’s bestest buddies right up until they did what people like them always do.
    By the way ‘n’ that, on this side of the North Channel, the petition for a re-run of our last General Election is going well. Well over 2 million now. No doubt they are all Surkeir supporters determined to get more than one third of the vote they triumphed with in the last Election. Such larks.
