Sir, those last few paragraphs are devastating to read. The "it isn't happening" paragraph caused about a 3 minute spate of laughter. I keep wondering, if the electoral process isn't the way, and January 6th is showing how effective that road is, what's left? Divorce and renew is looking kind of interesting. Who knows? You're spot of England may become the new Game of Thrones north kingdom soon.

That's was a brilliant article. I think that was one of your best. The Paragraph beginning "indeed, all we're really being offered by the elites" is totally spot on.

The EU will go for the most obvious weakness. Italian politics has a long legacy of being mired in corruption, the fact a plastic ponce like Burlusconi was PM in numerous governments, and now an MEP again, is testament to this. The EU will take the least line of resistance and undermine the new administration from within. It will avoid getting its hands too dirty. Given the instability of governance, particularly the last 5 years, it is unclear how much legs this new government will have. Not trying to be pessimistic, just realistic, but none the less open to a surprise.

We just need France or Germany to fall now and the whole house of cards will go along with it hopefully if we aren't in a full blown conflict with Russia by then. Interesting times indeed.

I can't say I have high hopes this result will change anything, but like the Sweden result at the very least it throws a spanner into the works and gives the Brussels bureaucrat's an extra headache to deal with.

Probably the most damning indictment of the UK at the moment is that we are light years away from anything similar. The only alternative we seem to have is an even more terminal form of cancer than the current one.

I haven't really followed it because I'm every bit as cynical as you, but I do have a memory that Italy was one of the places in Europe that the right was as enthusiastic about forced jabs as the establishment were over here, which tells me what I really need to know of them. I quite liked Salvini at one point because he did some enjoyable trolling of the left, and I nearly dared to hope, but when push came to shove he folded like a hot mars bar. Unfortunately if anything is ever going to change, things are going to have to get beyond bad first.

They are running out of things to threaten us with at this point, you can't build a globalist world of materialism, take it all away, and then threaten to take it all away again.

Always interesting. The paragraph about "more, more, more" did make me draw a deep breath.

Just stating the obvious but I cannot comprehend how these demons can sleep at night saying they will financially damage Hungary or Italy knowing that what that actually means is the poorest people in those countries suffering the most, (it won't affect the upper classes) and that it will mean early death, disease, hunger and misery WHILST simultaneously pretending that one of the reasons that we must import millions of enraged chimps and inbred child abusers is to give them a better life because the people forcing these ideas are "good people".

I detest the human scum coming here to leach off us but I hate the rich, ivory tower types that we recently saw exposed completely in Martha's Vineyard even more. I try not to give in to hate but I'm not Jesus, my Gods say that there are times when becoming enraged and fighting is necessary.

Lets hope its a case of 'you gotta fake it till you make it' type thing.

Yes but the pychology of faking it till you make it predetermines that you are a fake, and have therefore no fundamental good values.

Yes , the poisonous injection vax pass is definitely a good litmus test.. A fundemaental litmus test to see who supports individual human rights and who does not. As the great Morgoth opines , we have watched all this half of our lives and it has only gotten worse. >Gotten Not really a word but pessimistic sounding <

Most political leadership in the West always seems to want start any policy engagement by avoiding pragmatism and centrism, as if that would undermine their core tenets and annoy their media allies. My guess, they are so comfortable with having all the levers of power (esp the MSM and social media) they can’t imagine releasing them, and they also have gotten so use to issuing warnings to the public about existential threats - they cannot now backtrack.
