Some of your recent correspondents on the election of Donald Trump as 47th president of the United States have clearly bought uncritically into the demonising character-assassination campaign to which he has been unrelentingly subjected by the mainstream legacy media since 2015.
Your report on the Budget being “disastrous for both family and tenant farmers” is disturbing at a number of levels. The Covid pandemic, with its draconian lockdowns, was catastrophic for small businesses, with huge numbers closing for good, or else being thrust into desperate financial circumstances from which many are still recovering.
I have what I think is a much better proposal, with a much more worthwhile cause, that would mean leveraging our UK permanent status of the UN General Assembly to put forward a motion to get the Bank for International Settlement (BiS) to agree to collect 0.001% of every financial transaction it records.
What appears to be happening is that the Davos billionaires’ rapacious march towards global hegemony, which accelerated in 2020/21, has not only been thwarted on a national level by BRICS (Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa) creating an alternative to the CBDC (Central Bank Digital Currency), but also by populists like Donald Trump.
The core question has to be, do we wish to be governed by elected politicians who genuinely represent popular sentiment and viewpoints held by the citizens who elect them?; or do we naively entrust our human future to globalist elites driving through their own dubious agendas without any public participation, or say in, and consent to the content of, those agendas?
In the recent International Investment Summit, where Sir Keir Starmer revealingly appeared on the same platform as the former Google CEO and also the chief executive of pharmaceutical giant GlaxoSmithKline, the Prime Minister is reported as describing populism as "railing against the open values so many of us hold dear".
"I’m running as an independent in the next general election. I’ve come to the conclusion that you can either have an MP [gesturing towards the Houses of Parliament] who represents a [political] party in your constituency, or you can have an MP who represents the people in Parliament – but you can’t have both.... Independents are the answer; because the party system is completely corrupted from the top down.... This is a world-wide problem…. What we need to replace the whole of that Parliament with…: we need to halve the number of MPs, and what we need to do – all the laws, every three months, they have to be voted on by referendum by the people; it’s direct democracy – that is taking back control. Because if we sort this mess out [gesturing again towards the Houses of Parliament], I don’t want to ever be in the position where this can be done to the people again. And direct democracy is the answer – that will stop it.... [This is a global movement], and it’s going to get bigger!"
ANDREW BRIDGEN is the Independent British Member of Parliament (MP) for North West Leicestershire, speaking here to a Resistance GB journalist after his speech on excess deaths in the UK House of Commons on 18 April 2024. Andrew was expelled from the Conservative Party on 12 April 2023 for daring to challenge the fraudulent lockstep ‘Uni-party’ propagandist narrative about covid-19 and the covid experimental injection – the only MP of the 650 to have consistently and fearlessly done so.
