How the woke Left forgives too quickly

Isn't it peculiar, how quickly those on the woke liberal Left move to forgive discrimination, especially when it's practised by one of their own?  In the case of Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau's chilling penchant for parading around in Blackface, absolution from his woke acolytes was delivered at supersonic speed.  Gobsmackingly, Trudeau went on to 'win' the 2019 General Election.  His victory, with an astonishingly low 39% of the vote, was won with the blind support of the mainstream media and, crucially, the ability of the woke Left to compartmentalise his 'indiscretions'.

Remember this 'bigoted' Democrat?  Until it was politically expedient for him to believe otherwise, President Obama once thought that gay marriage was wrong - by today's standards, an unforgivably homophobic stance.  Not so long ago in 2008, President Obama stated in an interview with MTV that 'marriage is between a man and a woman'.  Unsurprisingly, the woke LGBTQ+ establishment, who claim to (but do not) speak for all LGBTQ+ people, didn't take long to embrace him back into the woke fold and forget his past crimes. 

 

The less said about forgiving Jeremy Corbyn his support for anti-Semitism and terrorist groups, or the current US presidential frontrunner Joe Biden for his links to the Klu Klux Klan, the better...

 

That's why it's worrying when in the face of the recent horrific murders by Islamist terrorists just across the English Channel, leaders on the woke Left are strangely silent.  Time after time, they want to skip the blame phase, move on too quickly and in doing so, wipe the massacres from the public consciousness.  In yesterday's The Canadian newspaper, Trudeau alluded that it is the fault of the victims when beheaded by terrorists, because they failed to acknowledge that 'freedom of expression has its limits'.  Then, there's the all too predictable faux-concern for Muslims and any potential hate that the woke Left says they will experience as a result of such attacks - this is patronising and yes, racist.

 

There are some things we should not move on from at lightening speed: institutional anti-Semitism and terrorism being just two of them.  We cannot simply forgive and forget without acknowledging real evil and seeking redress for the actions of the perpetrators.  Sickeningly, these woke individuals give barbaric extremists the world over excuses for their behaviour, something never granted to those they disagree with politically over far lesser offences.

 

 

The woke Left never forgives those on the Right.  They treat  co-called offensive comments and actions with outrage of such ferocity, you'd think they were directing them at the terrorists.  Essentially, the woke agenda involves demonising and refusing to move on from even a tweet if it's posted by someone on the Right, while giving a free pass to extremists and terrorists.

To build a safer world, we all need to show what Christian minister and leader of the civil right movement, Martin Luther King Jr, would have preached: some good old-fashioned Christian justice and forgiveness.  We need to put a person's indiscretions, faults or differences into perspective.  We need to say who's the real facist (Adolf Hitler) and who's just a Conservative (Boris Johnson); who's a terrorist (the IRA, ISIS and Antifa) and who are the true peaceful protesters (not BLM).  We need to condem real endemic racism on our own side (Jeremy Corbyn) and not simply move to brush it under the carpet.

 

If we are going to take a punitive approach to those we disagree with, we must act similarly with our own side.  Oh, and we really must take time to condemn the terrorists and mean it.

Labour and the Democrats: The Nasty Parties

Yesterday at a horn-honking rally in Minnesota, a near incomprehensible former Vice-President Joe Biden cruelly labelled hardworking Americans, who waited in freezing temperatures to see their President, as 'ugly folks'.  Sound familiar?  Well, it's become painfully clear since the 2016 EU referendum that the Democrat and Labour establishments hate their core voters: ordinary hardworking American and British people.  

Don't believe that?  Serial presidential failure Hillary Rodham Clinton infamously insulted half of all American voters in 2016 by giving them hugely insulting moniker: Deplorables.  As we soon learned, telling your own voters that they're racist, sexist, homophobic, Islamophobic (when they're patently not) wasn't hugely successful for Hillary.

Still unconvinced?  The Remain campaign told Leave voters that they didn't know what they were voting for - that they were too thick to understand the complexities of a UK-wide election.  Worse still, supporters of UKIP and the Brexit Party were denigrated for years by politicians and the mainstream media with cries of swivel-eyed-loons and, of course, racist!  Yesterday in the UK, we discovered who the real racist party is...

The insults of the loony-Left never cease to amaze and never seem to end.  Back in December 2019, the Prime Minister Boris Johnson romped home with an 80 seat majority - their finest result since the 1930s.  Instead of examining their own extremist and racist leadership, or asking whether shaking the magic money tree to the tune of £300bn seemed credible to their 'thicko' core vote, the lying Labour Left attempted to shame working-class voters living behind the former Red Wall, by claiming they'd been 'hoodwinked by the far-Right'.  Believable?  Only to the genuinely stupid...

See a pattern here?  The Democrats and Labour will do anything and say anything to shame voters into either supporting them or refraining from voting for the other.  Put simply: they're nasty parties masquerading as our caring saviours.  But we know who the real Deplorables are...

The Real Racists

Who are the real racists?  Well, yesterday's report from the Equality and Human Rights Commission left little doubt as to the answer to that question.

To misquote Left-wing rapper Dave's politically motivated performance at this year's 40th Brit Awards back in February at London's O2 Arena:

"It is racist, whether or not it feels racist.  The truth is: our former Leader of the Opposition and his party are the real racists.  They say - 'You should be grateful we're the least racist.  I say: the least racist is still racist."

Ignoring the real racists in his own political party by remaining eerily silent on Twitter yesterday, Dave could instead be found engaging in another bout of self-promotion by posing for photographs in front of his flashy new sports car, while wearing the latest top-end clothing.

Apparently, he, like many of his chums of convenience on the Left (has-been Lily Allen, Ed Davey (who?), meanie Dianne Abbott, misogynist John McDonnell and professional victim Owen Jones), can't spot a real racist, even when they're standing bolt upright in front of them at the Labour Party Conference!

Singer, Lily Allen crying

Labour are the real racists.  Labour is the real Nasty Party.  Labour is now officially Britain's number one racist party.  Oh, and there's nothing more racist than claiming to be the party  of the so-called Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic community. But then, Labour's always loved a bit of enslavement...

And guess who knew all about the anti-Semitism all along?

Peston and pals: The Fake News Party

Ever listened to Robert Peston, Laura Kunnesberg and Beth Rigby and thought that something didn’t sound quite right?  Well, your gut instinct isn't playing tricks on you. Listen closely and you’ll hear them repeat the same overtly political messages, targeted precisely to worry and scare the British public into thinking and ultimately voting their way.

(C) Daily Mail

Coincidentally, what comes out of the mouth of the Labour Party front bench one week, is regurgitated by this fake news trio the next.  Blurring the boundary between journalism and politics, they’re the mumbling mouthpieces of the moralising liberal elite.  Who can fail to forget their Brexit bashing, austerity carping and Labour loving rhetoric of recent years?

(C) Wikipedia

Take Polly Peston’s question last week to Prime Minister Boris Johnson at his first Coronavirus briefing after nearly a month fighting the illness. Peston presented as fact that the UK could have ‘the worst or among the worst deaths from Coronavirus’.  His less than effusive ‘welcome back’ to a man who was at death’s door a matter of weeks ago, confirmed the real intention behind his question: to use emotionally charged bombshells to shock the public into believing that the UK government isn’t doing its job property.

(C) Wikipedia

Professor Chris Whitty, Chief Medical Officer, smacked down Peston by pointing out that comparing numbers of those who died in each country from COVID-19 alone is not the model agreed upon by the  UK scientific community. He added that it's best to take a view when the pandemic is over. Undeterred by the mathematical and scientific facts, Rigby repeated yesterday the same untruth about the UK’s ranking among its European neighbours, all the while knowing full well that Italy and Spain’s figures exclude those dying in care homes.

(C) rev.com

Worse still,  Peston asked recently a question about whether the government will 'bring back austerity' and cuts to public services. If that’s not politically laden, what is?  His gotcha moment went ungotcha’d, as the Prime Minister confirmed that won't be his approach. Boris cleverly called-out Peston’s politically poisoned message saying that, “I've never particularly liked the term that you've just used [austerity] to describe government economic policy.” 

One week they’re clamouring for a road map out of the lockdown.  The next, when the government announces what they've have been asking for, lefty Laura and bolshy Beth accuse them of worrying the populous and sending out mixed messages!

(C) Broadband TV News

Kunnesberg, Rigby, Peston: they and their elitist media pals are all the same. Like a political party, this triumvirate of fake news representatives are on-message daily, dressing up their own brand of opinion based journalism as gospel truth. 

(C) Press Gazette

They don’t care about reporting fact. Working like a creepy cartel, they seek to undermine government by setting the daily news agenda and unscrupulously changing tack when their demands are met.  On Brexit, the General Election and now the Coronavirus pandemic - it's the same old story.  Peddlers, not of fact, but fake news.  The Fake News Party... 

Keir Starmer: New Danger?

In working-class households behind the former red wall, the name Sir Keir Starmer will conjure up one or more of three responses: Who’s he?, Yawn! or He thinks we’re thick!  

On each, they’d be spot on. Except for one missing fact: Sir Keir Starmer is dangerous. Delve deeper, and Britain’s hard working Labour voters soon realise that the new Labour leader brings new danger. 

Yes, he’s dull and managerial with all the charm of a 1950’s company chairman, but judging him instead by his Labour friends and personal dogma, he’s dangerous. As a vocal supporter of former Labour Party leader Jeremy Corbyn and loyal member of his Shadow Cabinet, Sir Keir stayed eerily silent and refused to speak out against Corbyn’s tolerance of anti-semitism within the party and the union movement more broadly. Corbyn turned Labour into the real nasty party; had it been any other party, Sir Keir would’ve named it the most racist political party in Britain. 

Sir Keir, describing Corbyn as his friend, sat speechless in the face of its gradual takeover by extremists. You see, supporting and saying nothing about Corbyn’s self-declared friendship with terrorist groups Hamas and Hezbollah, and his love of the IRA, doesn’t go down well at the boozers of Bolsover and Bermondsey.

Think Sir Keir will honour the 2016 Brexit referendum, and the subsequent general election results, and keep Britain out of the EU? Think again.  As the architect of Labour’s catastrophic Brexit policy that saw it lose at the recent general election the support of its heartland voters, you’d think Sir Keir would listen and learn. Sadly for Labour’s electoral prospects, he’s having none of it!  Sir Keir’s Labour is so far removed from that of his namesake, Labour’s founding father Keir Hardie, that this knight of the realm places the screeching from the Remoaner Islington-elites above the life chances of its core voters. 

In fact, Sir Keir is so dangerously anti-democratic and out of touch with Labour’s core working class vote,  that he hasn’t ruled out campaigning to rejoin the EU, hoping to gerrymander the result by giving the vote in UK general elections to millions of EU citizens.

The truth is that Sir Keir and his Labour chums bring new danger to an already dangerous Labour Party. They hate Britain, past, present and future.  They’re ashamed of its history and heroes. They loathe its flag, choosing instead to drape themselves in the EU’s banner of gold and blue, and together with the oh-so elitist über-Remainers, are disgusted by 

their own core voters behind the now Tory-blue electoral wall. Obsessed by identity politics (except of course the identities of the working-class bedrock of his once great political movement) they pit one group of society against another and, in turn, destroy the very fabric of our nation.

So deluded are many in the Labour Party, that they think the dullest man in Britain will lead them back to power.  Remember how enthused they were over Milliband and Corbyn?  Sir Keir’s appointment is simply moving the deckchairs on the titanic. Keir’s no Kinnock. He is the embodiment of New Labour, New Danger.

As our Prime Minister Boris fights for his life in the intensive care unit of our local St. Thomas’s Hospital, Bermondsey prays for Boris Johnson make a swift recovery.

Why they don’t get it (No.2): They hate themselves

Whether it’s flying the Union Flag or saying they’re British and proud of it, the middle-class liberal elite hate our country. They loathe its past and believe so little in its future, that they’ll do anything to talk it down, undermine and destroy it.

 

Since the Sixties, they’ve worked tirelessly to deconstruct centuries held notions of patriotism that once bound together our nation and the identity of generations of the British people. In schools and colleges and across the public sector, they’ve instilled in decent Brits a sense of shame for simply loving their country and believing it’s the best in the world. Driven by the doctrines of cultural relativism, inclusion and diversity and multi-culturalism, patriotism has been become a dirty word and seen as offensive.

One of the key reasons Labour has been trounced in election after election over the past decade?  Loving Cuba, Palestine and just about every other extremist regime around the world, it hates viscerally Britain and England (and isn’t afraid to show it).  Together with the rest of the regressive Left, it detests the views and values of its own core hardworking voters - those who wrap themselves up in everything that’s best about their country: family, faith and flag.  Remember the disdain with which Emily Thornberry held working-class white van man for flying the St George's Cross from his family home? 

 

Some on the right haven’t been much better. Who could forget David Cameron’s description of Brexit supporters as swivel-eyed loons?

 

Well, those core and once tribal Labour voters, along with a rainbow coalition of others, have stuck up two fingers to the liberal-elite rogues' gallery of Abbott, Blair, Corbyn, Miller, Milliband, Umunna and a myriad of others.

 

 

Here’s some advice for them all: fly the flag, sing the national  anthem and talk Britain up. They won’t, of course...
