I think... have a plan that was dreamed up by Baldrique.<br /><br />If the candidacy of Macron can be linked to the present incumbents looking to finesse their way through this and effectively <br /><br />It may well be that the old party machines will sway it for an establishment candidate - but I'm unconvinced that that ruse is actually going to play well with voters - we'll see. <br /><br />I wonder if this'll be the exception to Jean-Baptiste Alphonse Karr's famous <a href="https://www.google.co.uk/search?q=c%27est+la+memem+chose&rlz=1C1CHFX_en-GBGB457GB457&oq=c%27est+la+memem+chose&aqs=chrome..69i57j0l5.8491j0j4&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8#q=c'est+la+meme+chose" rel="nofollow">epigram... </a> :-)Gordon the Fence Post Tortoisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04426735271858751220noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1537213245172078183.post-9269556308365871952017-04-24T09:04:01.268+01:002017-04-24T09:04:01.268+01:00Did anyone witness the BBC being extra careful to ...Did anyone witness the BBC being extra careful to ensure that all of the parties get a fair crack of the whip?<br /><br />Andrew Marr(xist), wheeled Nottatall out and asked him what the UKIP plan was....

But nevertheless... EVIDENCE IS EVIDENCE, unlike apparently brexit meaning brexit... Or actually, maybe it is the same... depends who is stating the bleedin' obvious.<br /><br />So in France they are about to gang up on the two majority blocs, in order to keep one out and render the other one useless. Sounds about par for the course!<br /><br />The evidence of course is on continuous display in two hot spots... California state in the USA, where the people are in general fairly left wing, and often the propositions (aka referenda) mimic that tendency. However, one thing that seems to be consistent regardless of the orientation on the left-right spectrum... Other people's money is actually some people's money... THE VOTER'S! So the Californian government is perpetually broke.<br /><br />In Switzerland where people tend to be conservative, the money is not such an issue... Depends whether something has potential or not... e.g. A Swiss banker pays into his sickness fund at a hugely different rate to a Swiss McDonalds employee, but when he becomes sick, he receives 90% of his salary as benefit, this for a limited period before work is found. It is the same for the MaccyD worker... FAIR!<br /><br />But as far as Swiss voting goes, people are engaged... REALLY engaged, they are civic minded, and this is not just because they are krauts, it is because of their political system, it makes you that way, if your vote counts there is a tendency for one to use it.<br /><br />Meanwhile in the rest of the world, look and listen very carefully, and we can see some MASSIVE confidence tricks coming down the track, a bit like those hand pumped railway carts, that silently kills.<br /><br />Now it seems to me that, whilst possibly not the majority, a massive minority can see that we are about to be shafted in France, Britain and elsewhere, in an effort to overrule the people's will in those places... Yes it might well NOT be their choice to choose Marine LePen as a package, but they night well like 80% of it, but they are not going to get ANY of it,,, In a direct democracy, they would get just as much Marine as they felt that they needed and not a hairsbreadth more.<br /><br />I thought that UKIP was fighting for that along with independence from the EU, but the remaining rump has eschewed the party's most important feature too get boots on seats in the commons.... Thus UKIP turns out to be a dumbed down version of the major party's tawdry interests, which virtually never mix with the general public's interests.<br /><br />So UKIP can take a running jump since they haven't been forced to tread this path, they have chosen it and Nottatall as its dumbed down leader.<br /><br />Effin' depressin' really Radders,.<br /><br />right-writesAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1537213245172078183.post-66900699037348481422017-04-24T07:17:48.785+01:002017-04-24T07:17:48.785+01:00Disappointed that Le Pen didn't get a better r...Disappointed that Le Pen didn't get a better result, angry though not surprised all the other losing contenders advised their followers to vote against her in the following round.
