The machine media has been quick to suggest that this week’s massive Labour victory in the UK Elections is the emissions reduction we were looking for to cool Europe’s heated-up right-wing uprising. It looks like that, and they’ll keep trying to sell it; just don’t read the not-so-fine print.
Here’s the machine media response you’ll find up and down the fake fourth-column food chain.
A triumphant U.K. Labour Party is back in power in Britain after winning a historic landslide election victory over the ruling Conservatives.
Defeated Tory Prime Minister Rishi Sunak resigned on Friday morning after losing the snap election he called six weeks ago, having led his party to the worst-ever defeat in its 190-year history.
As in other recent elections around the world, the result marks a complete repudiation of the ruling class. A Conservative Party which had run the U.K. for the past 14 years was simply swept away in a wave of public anger at Britain’s stuttering economy, failing public services and a succession of political scandals.
The sheer scale of the result was extraordinary, with Labour on course for a 170-seat majority in the House of Commons — the biggest since Tony Blair’s famous win in 1997.
It was a massive, historic left-wing party win. Left wing? Not so fast. How did Labour earn this historic win? What did they tell the people of England they would focus on if elected?
Britain’s snap elections, called in May by now former conservative-party Prime Minister Rishi Sunak,* wreaked havoc on the historic party of Margaret Thatcher and rocketed the liberal socialist labour party into equally historic control of the entire British Government by a massive margin. Corporate media is trumpeting the result as a failure of conservatism in England, and a narrative opposing the recent ascendency of the ‘far right’ in the rest of Europe. But contrary to that narrative, Labour’s winning campaign slogan was “Make Brexit Work.”
Perhaps even more tellingly, now-dominant Labour was the only major British party to oppose vaccine mandates and most of the vaccine passport rules during the pandemic.
So, New Labour is a bunch of anti-vaxxers interested in England’s national and economic identity?
While corporate media myopically pretends to celebrate the election of a left-wing government in Britain, they have (probably intentionally) missed the gist. In yesterday’s election, voters overwhelmingly rewarded parties that had opposed jab mandates. Britain’s RINO conservative party undermined Brexit, which was bad enough, but even worse it deployed severe jab mandates and passport rules. And Boris Johnson, the pandemic Prime Minister and conservative leader, infamously partied while locking down the rest of Great Britain.
Mostly, sort of. “ It might be more accurate to say the election was less about rewarding Labour than punishing the Conservatives, who were indisputably responsible for Britain’s over-reaction. In fact, it makes me (partly) happy the Republicans were in the wilderness during Biden’s first two years.”
Labour’s victory primarily results from Tories (a party full of Bushes, McCains, and Sununus) doing things the people opposed and then doubling down on them. In France, we see the same thing as they go to the polls again today for round two – which will determine if the right can form a government or if it needs to make deals with commies and greens.
Meanwhile, back in the Colonies, we’ve got a sock puppet president and a raft of ills with so many holes in it that his own party base is rebelling. What results from this may not be known until next year. The left doesn’t like to lose, and they’ve proven themselves capable of ensuring they don’t. But the discontent is broad, and across party lines, the electoral rebellion might be too vas forever for the deep state to undermine.
We can hope.
