Would love for Farage to come back. I kind of saw Johnson as his pupil, but since he is in power he has indeed swung to the left.
Actually what you say about the UK sounds strangely similar to what we have in Holland with immigration. We vote for parties that claim they want less immigration and once they are in control they push for more immigration.
Yes, that's it, the sneaky bait & switch! ...I take it as a sign of complete 'capture' of our political establishments by outside interests, because all the parties do it to us, and across so many countries. It certainly tells us who they believe their *real* bosses to be... hint: not us.
They say what they need to get elected, and then once elected they proceed with risible nonsense like "Building Back Better" ...
...aka "After we have destroyed civil society, prosperity and social mobility then we will BUILD systems to concentrate all power and wealth BACK into our hands like feudal times, which will be much BETTER for us elites. You're welcome peasants!"
Not really what this democracy business is supposed to be about! :/
"“From the time I took office as Chancellor of the Exchequer, I began to learn that the State held, in the face of the Bank and the City, an essentially false position as to finance. The Government itself was not to be a substantive power, but was to leave the Money Power supreme and unquestioned.”"
Since he married Carrie, he's in the NWO clutches and all we get is leftist policies of the worst globalist kind. I think having covid affected his brain.
I have made this point before — but if you accept that Boris is a charismatic frontman who enjoys dress-ups, then his life and career make a *lot* more sense...
He is a showman. He lives for the applause, and the glow of the stage lights. But he has no interest in writing the scripts, or building the sets. He will swan in at the final moment, ascend the stage (30 minutes late) and deliver the lines written for him with cheeky gusto. And the crowd will love it. But all that requires an entire team doing the rest, and being ready to hand him the script, direct him to the stage they have built, and manage the lights and sound while he performs. A star without the rest of the crew cannot deliver the show.
Also, notice how the various personalities/ideas he has assumed change throughout his life like costumes, according to what suits his comfort in the moment:
— Libertarian, cogent, 'writer Boris' was when he was playing dress up in the ideas of his exceptionally intelligent (long-suffering) wife, Marina Wheeler.
— Then he saw an opportunity to dress up as a Brexiteer, and threw on the cloak of Leave and played in that for a while. When that wound down he saw a new cloak to try on — the extremely popular (populist?) ideas and positions of one Mr Dom Cummings.
— Then Carrie happened. She didn't like this scene of the play, so he threw off that costume and slipped into one more suited to his current circumstances. Currently he is living for the applause of the woke metropolitan globalist set that he is embedded with.
This is just Boris. Either they need to get a stronger person in to beat back that influence and enthrall Boris to dress up once again, or we are b*ggered. As far as I can tell, that's about the size of things right now.

Hurray for democracy I guess ...

Gladstone (prior to WWI)
"“From the time I took office as Chancellor of the Exchequer, I began to learn that the State held, in the face of the Bank and the City, an essentially false position as to finance. The Government itself was not to be a substantive power, but was to leave the Money Power supreme and unquestioned.”"
and so it continues.
