Who would have imagined that life would get quite as interesting as it has done? We are most definitely living in the most interesting of times. The actual,ineluctable breaking apart and historic dissolution of the former Left and Right.Old political classifications, that stymied and stifled open and honest debates around pressing issues of general and immediate importance,are now faltering and becoming increasingly shrill and dysfunctional. The western neocon warmongers are running around like headless chickens much in the same way that the entrenched PC metropolitan liberal elites are.Their shills no longer quite know which slogans to append to which placards for which protest/demonstration on any give day in the week; there's just so many of them. In the UK and US,at the present time,the majority of this co-ordinated barely disguised and very rarely refuted insurgent,seditionist rabble rousing is directed at #stoptrump and stopping #brexit. Neither of which are actually going to be stopped.Impeded,yes certainly given the sheer volume and concerted effort being put into these twin objectives. The rest of the World,the BRICS for example, are trying as best they can to carry on with life on this planet as usual. Neither the US nor the EU are the centre of gravity in world events any longer and in truth haven't been to any significant degree for a while now. A new era of self-assertive Nation States and the reinvigoration of sovereignty as a active political force is dawning and shall not be delayed.

The trouble with people who suffer from paranoid delusions is that, clearly there might well indeed be someone out to get them. But not right now. Various cities across Britain were ,on Monday 20 February once again awash with the flotsam and jetsam of placard waving detritus. Yes, exactly the same shills out earning their CIA funded stipend who were placard waving and reciting platitudes with all the fervour of a papist penitent the previous week,were out metaphorically flagellating their own consciences yet again. #stoptrump was supposed to be the catechism,although as the seemingly interminable hours of faux-rhetoric and student common room sedition passed, all manner of vituperative hyperbole ended up getting spouted and placards waved at it. #brexit was a popular target along with plaintive invocations against racism,islamophobia and the recently rediscovered complaint of xenophobia. The most bizarre rant amongst such a crowded field of idiolect terminology was the now trending and therefore fashionable lamentation involving the fate of EU citizens working and sojourning within the borders of the UK. For those who genuinely haven't the foggiest notion as to how the world came to have such a thing as an " EU citizen ",it maybe worth noting how this quasi-legal abortion came into existence. Via the 1992 Maastricht treaty as it happens. Which is :-
The Maastricht Treaty (formally, the Treaty on European Union or TEU) undertaken to integrate Europe was signed on 7 February 1992 by the members of the European Community in Maastricht, Netherlands.[1] On 9–10 December 1991, the same city hosted the European Councilwhich drafted the treaty.[2] Upon its entry into force on 1 November 1993 during the Delors Commission,[3] it created the European Union and led to the creation of the single European currency, the euro. The Maastricht Treaty has been amended by the treaties of Amsterdam, Nice andLisbon.
A referendum was expected to take place in the United Kingdom in 2006 to decide whether the country should ratify the proposed Treaty establishing a Constitution for Europe. However, following the rejection of the Constitution by similar referendums in France in May 2005 and the Netherlands in June 2005, the UK vote was postponed indefinitely. The question was rendered moot when the constitution was superseded by the Treaty of Lisbon, which Parliament ratified in 2008 without holding a referendum.
Well bollocks to all of that! Schadenfreude all around.

" Something is rotten in the state of Denmark " - Marcellus in " Hamlet "
The final excruciating disintegration of the post-1945 world order is in full swing. The once pre-eminent position occupied by the USA, as the world's leading hegemon, is irretrievably lost. The fall out from this historic sea change has barely begun and is likely to last for many decades to come. Schadenfreude ,all well and good.It has been a historic juncture long since anticipated with unquenchable anticipation. The beauty of this process is highlighted by the alacrity with which certain factions within the American-domiciled globalist ruling elites and political class are going about vandalising and laying waste to all their once revered institutions. The Presidency not least has come in for a terrible enfilade of vituperative slander and denunciation as if it and its newest incumbent were somehow the very embodiment of a particular class or foreign enemy. Utterly unbelievable! Americans, never proficient in the arts and mysteries of irony, lack the critical faculties needed in order to fully appreciate the ravening insanity that they've descended into. A scenario not entirely dissimilar to the one currently embroiling the polity of the United Kingdom in the wake of the victorious #brexit campaign that culminated in the epoch making EU referendum result of 23 June 2016. Strikingly similar globalist, PC multicultural apologist, metropolitan elitists with their placard-waving antidemocratic seditionist rants and forays into the more arcane realms of legalistic formulae and mystical incantations about " freedom of movement " abound on both sides of the Atlantic. And so it goes. China,India,Russia and a vast swathe of sovereign nation states and regions not ineluctably bound to the failing liberal despotisms of the US and EU are ushering in however tentatively a new and greater future! Hail, Brexit , Hail Trump ; their role as harbingers has been carried out successfully.

Contemporary western PC leftist-liberalism has created and is perpetuating a Statist leviathan and a totalitarian ideology. Its ultimate expression is ineluctably economic in its realisation across civil society. Unrestricted labour market competition is represented in official language or newspeak as some wholly specious immaterial notion which they call" equality ". Its most immediate expression is embodied in the EU's " freedom of movement ". This is in practice a neoliberal mechanism that perpetuates the necessary conditions for the existence of a " reserve army of labour " which is a fundamental requirement in order for capitalism to maintain its own existence. There is no intrinsic mystery about the basic laws of capitalist economics.The greater the number of available units of labour ( workers ) you have competing for a finite and decreasing number of job vacancies,the lower the general level of wages needs to be in order to attract applicants.Supply and demand. Helping to naturalise this state of affairs is an ongoing ideological process initiated and conducted by metropolitan academic elites through the various apparatuses of the state which by turn is itself wholly committed to the goals of the hegemonic project of the global corporate ruling elites. And so we come to the political / industrial dispute in which the EHRC is currently embroiled.
The Equality & Human Rights Commission was established in 2007 to help eliminate discrimination, reduce inequality and protect human rights in the UK
( The EHRC has offices in Manchester, London, Glasgow and Cardiff. It is classed as a non-departmental public body (NDPB) sponsored by theGovernment Equalities Office, which is part of the Department for Education (DfE). As an NDPB it is separate and independent from Government but still accountable for its use of public funds. )
EHRC has been accused by a union of targeting disabled and ethnic minority staff after 10 people were sacked by email and given one day to clear their desks.PCS claimed seven of the sacked staff members were of black or minority ethnic origin, and six were disabled
The Public and Commercial Services (PCS) union said dismissal at such short notice was "unprecedented" in the civil service and government agencies. However, the staff had previously been threatened with redundancy.
The dismissal, emailed while PCS and United members were striking over cuts to the Commission, said: “I therefore give you notice of the termination of your employment by reason of redundancy…Your last working day will therefore be Friday 10 February 2017.”
PCS general secretary Mark Serwotka called the decision "reprehensible."
“That this has happened at the government body charged with upholding human rights and fair treatment in our society is an absolute scandal and we will continue to fight it," he said.
The irony in all this, is the role played by the official Trades Union movement which itself is historically tied to implementing the ideological fetishisation of PC multiculturalism, human rights and the entire farrago of equality for this that and the other personal pecadillo. The time honoured adage "Hoist by their own petard " springs to mind. The busybodies busybody swallowing its own tail ; who investigates the investigators.Who indeed carries out an Inquisiton into the Inquisiton itself?

Let me make it crystal clear; I hate, loathe and despise every organisation, group,Party and every individual therein that opposes #brexit and campaigned for the UK to remain a satrapy of the EU. I utterly condemn and hold to be anathema the globalist,PC multicultural metropolitan elites who act as antidemocratic,seditionist #EU shills. The House of Commons came to its ineluctable constitutional senses last night, February 8. After all their repugnant demagoguery and brazen attempts at incitement of their adherents to instigate tumult and riot against HMG, the seditionist detritus has finally been thrown onto the dungheap of history. Ignominy and hubris characterised their inflammatory rhetoric against the sovereign British electorate.The scum of #LabourIn spared nothing by the way of vituperative hyperbole in demonising the people for having chosen to Leave the EU. The " final " hurdle, more of a chimera than anything truly substantive, is the House of Lords who unless they wish to replay the genuinely constitutional imbroglio that engulfed British politics from 1909 to 11, had best just concur and be circumspect about it. As for Rights, they are solely for indigenous citizens and anyone who wishes to naturalise and conform.Everyone else is, of course free to leave at their earliest convenience.

Yawn. Either the world has in fact gone crazy or a voluble,volatile cadre of faux-leftists are trying to make it appear so. The Democratic Party and its global elite corporate backers were never ever going to accept Donald Trump's maverick,outsider victory over their chosen one, HRC. The historically moribund and existentially irrelevant forces of the liberal ( and on paper not so liberal ) Left across the West are simply a situationist ,performance installation art re-enactment society on a grandiose scale. #stoptrump rallies/marches/demonstartions were promoted with Pravda propagandist alacrity across the UK for Saturday,February 4 2017. Alas the heroic vanguard of Slogans With Placards was missing some of its stalwarts:-

Before we begin, it's worth for perspective's sake bearing in mind the following :-
Romans 3:10-18King James Version (KJV)
10 As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one:
11 There is none that understandeth, there is none that seeketh after God.
12 They are all gone out of the way, they are together become unprofitable; there is none that doeth good, no, not one.

The media reported that President Donald Trump signed an executive order on Friday banning all immigrants and visa holders from seven majority-Muslim nations from entering the United States for 90 days. The executive order, titled “Protecting the Nation From Terrorist Attacks by Foreign Nationals,” applies to visitors from Iraq, Syria, Yemen, Sudan, Somalia, Libya, and Iran, including dual citizens. It bans all refugees for 120 days and Syrian refugees indefinitely. For two days, the ban also applied green card holders. (Now green card holders are being admitted entry on a case-by-case basis.)
It is the inalienable right of sovereign nation states to determine their own citizenry. Poland's foreign minister in supporting the USA's initiative reaffirmed that " every sovereign country has the right to decide its own immigration policy ". No-one is asserting that they are somehow,in some theological/philosophical/moral sense innately superior to any other contending or wholly antithetical political point -of-view.
The howling mobs of placard-wavers who took to the streets in metropolitan USA and for instance in Britain in London and several other university towns would have it otherwise. A cacophonous broadside of vacuous platitudes and incoherent rants labelled the US temporary visa restrictions as racist,islamophobic and smeared the measures and President Trump with plentiful disingenuous non sequiturs mostly alluding to Hitler and the NSDAP Government of 1930's Germany. The same core of faux-left/liberal ,anti-democratic PC multicultural apologists swapped slogans on the placards they've waved in seeking to annul #brexit and hey presto they became the " sea " of protestors calling for no borders,open borders and welcome to muslim refugees.
They're attempting to re-write the old adage that you can't fool all the people all the time. Slogans With Placards are certainly trying for fooling most people all of the time.
