Wooing the British Public with their Imaginings

All the political parties are making their bids to woo the british public with their ever increasing offerings.  Yet none of them are saying how we are going to pay for it all.  The realisation will only occur after a party is in government when it will turn out its pockets and find them empty.  We have sold all our assets.  Almost sixty years ago we were in the lead making silicone crystals and slicing them into chips of various kinds.  They were fairly primitive but  were being used as rectifiers on electric trains or simple logic devices for telephone exchanges.  I know because I was working on those devices for Associated Electric Industries, and General Electric Company - the company that had a cash mountain.  The computer industry began to flourish in this country, with the likes of GEC, Ferranti and International Computers.  But succesive governments have overseen their demise along with hundreds of other companies in vital industries such as aerospace, shipping, cars, tractors, farming equipment, machine tools, steel production, the fibre industries, medicines - the list is endless.  This has led to a lack of skilled engineers and technicians, such that many with the potential are no longer interested. 

Successive governments have not supported British manufacturing, whatever the economic weather.  They have allowed the sale of Companies to foreigners, expecting them to invest in this country.  Many Companies have been moved to another country where products are made that once were British.  We now buy them in.  The MG is a classic example.   I had an 88 year old Coventry man visit our house recently.  He was quite bitter about Massey Ferguson.  They were bought out and now make the tractors we once designed and built, but in the US.  We import the same Massey Ferguson tractors.  It is all about Globalisation.  

The Labour Party say they will nationalise the railways, the water boards and electricity supply industries.  This would be one small step to retaining and developing our skills.  A Government is required that will step up to the plate and support all our industries.  Manufacturing stands at a very low level of 20% of our gross domestic product.  Only when manufacturing is restored to its original levels will we be able to pay for everything.

The Chinese Takeover of 'British Steel'

Yet another overshadowing of British workers who are no doubt pleased to be keeping their jobs, at least at present.   But they servilely accept the situation, knowing that it has been sold for a song to foreigners, like the hundreds of British companies sold off through the years.  Where is the pride in this?  So come on Johnson and Corbyn and every body else, when are you really going to support British workers?

Get Brexit Done - A Rubbish Conservative Phrase

Like May's vague expression "Brexit Means Brexit", "Get Brexit  Done" is an equally meaningless slogan trotted out by Conservatives in the hope that the British public would be fooled by such childish nonsense.  "Leave Means Leave" is much more understandable and meaningful to British minds.  It means what the British public voted for in the 2016 Referendum - that they simply wanted to get out of the EU, no ifs or buts.  Get that in your head Johnson.  We want to be out of the EU.  The best way is to support the Brexit Party.

The SNP Want Independance Yet Stay in the EU

What would Scottish people do if their country voted to be independant and a member of the EU, while the rest of Britain was out of the EU?  Does either the Scottish people or the rest of Britain relish that prospect?  I think not.  Just imagine a border with customs posts right across the UK.  Make no mistake that is what the EU would insist on.  The wreckers Sturgeon and Blackford are headed for disaster.  No wonder they want to keep Britain in the EU!

Parliament Has Failed the British People - Clear the Swamp

In the last three years we have watched Parliament let-down and exhaust the British people.  Each political party has contributed to the chaos.  It is time for a brand new start with a party that is clear about its intentions.  The party that will get us out of the EU immediately, with no deal, no ifs or buts, is the Brexit Party.   We need a clean break from the EU.  This is what the British people voted for.  No more wrangling!!!

Immigration is Still a Massive Problem

They are coming in hundreds of thousands taking British jobs, money out of the Britsh economy, and building mansions in their villages of origin.  

Hundred of thousands of students with Chinese, Indian and other nationalities will all be allowed to stay in the UK for two years after graduating.   Many will no doubt be applying for UK citizenship.   

They are working in the NHS, in IT for multinational companies at lower rates than British workers.  They are everywhere, diluting our British culture.  Net migration is an irrelevant and ridiculous statistic.

There are 3,000,000 immigrants from the EU, many supposedly the 'brightest and best'.  There is no London University that is not swamped by 'experts' from the EU.  Their best qualification is a foreign name. 

Armageddon is arriving on British shores.
