The Ragged Rascal Ran

"I want children to speak fluently and clearly," says Keir Starmer. Keir Starmer. I have not laughed so much since, as members of Skull and Bones, George W. Bush and John Kerry both turned out to be devotees of Eulogia, Goddess of Eloquence.

But Bush and Kerry are not purely ridiculous figures, and nor is Starmer. On the day of the funeral of Kyrees Sullivan and Harvey Evans, the Crown Prosecution Service has announced that there would be no charges against the senior Officers who were responsible for the investigation into the murder of Stephen Lawrence. The forces of evil are preparing for a Starmer Government.

Thankfully, when I tell you that there is going to be a hung Parliament, then you can take that to the bank. I spent the 2005 Parliament saying that it was psephologically impossible for the Heir to Blair's Conservative Party to win an overall majority. I predicted a hung Parliament on the day that the 2017 General Election was called, and I stuck to that, entirely alone, all the way up to the publication of the exit poll eight long weeks later. And on the day that Sunak became Prime Minister, I predicted that a General Election between him and Starmer would result in a hung Parliament.

To strengthen families and communities by securing economic equality and international peace through the democratic political control of the means to those ends, including national and parliamentary sovereignty, we need to hold the balance of power. Owing nothing to either main party, we must be open to the better offer. There does, however, need to be a better offer. Not a lesser evil, which in any case the Labour Party is not.
