Just shows how far government is away from the wishes of the people.
Better to force by-elections and get them out 1-by-1?
Of course, this is playing the voting game [with the illusion of choice], assuming that true change can be made through a system that seems to be defunct.
Again, it’s just not how politics works. You can’t force MPs out 1-by-1. Labour have massive power at least until the PM decides to have an election in about 2029.
I won’t lie to you. It’s among the reasons I am less popular than some. I lift the lid on politics on my Substack. People can believe what I write from first hand experience or not. I can’t force you.
🤷🏻♂️
Honest feedback and lifting the lid is fine. Proposing solutions (even if somewhat radical and contrarian) is even better.
People who want government reflecting the principles of a free society need to join and stay in the Conservative Party.
That isn’t very popular. An old saying is, “In democracies, electorates get the government they deserve.” 🤷🏻♂️
I’ll be doing what I can in public life and private business but the state has power over us all and there’s only one way to steer and diminish it.
Again, I won’t lie to you.
I was with you on nostr:npub14mcddvsjsflnhgw7vxykz0ndfqj0rq04v7cjq5nnc95ftld0pv3shcfrlx ‘s podcast until you said join the conservative party ;-) I feel you need to justify that somewhat more. From what I have read of Herbert that you spoke of, it seems even the Conservatives are still a long way from his writings (whom I presume you concur with).
Please see my Substack.
I’m not on a mission to persuade you or anyone else. I’ve made my case. People can take it or leave it.
By “one way to steer it” I presume you mean defund it by not using their money?
