UK: Cameron’s cronies got hammered by UKIP in by-elections—wake up John Boy

Terry Wallbank's picture

As I have mentioned in several posts before, UK’s Conservative Party and New Zealand’s National Party are pretty much identical twins and people have had a gut full of them for almost the same reasons.

For the most part, in the UK it’s gay marriage, mass immigration, and the European Union; whereas, in New Zealand it’s gay marriage, mass immigration, and the Maori-isation of New Zealand.

In respect to the by-elections, The Week, in part, reported:

LABOUR won three by-elections last night, holding the safe seats of Middlesbrough, Croydon North and Rotherham. The results were expected, but it was nevertheless a miserable night for the coalition and a good night for the low-immigration, anti-Europe party, UKIP.

The UK Independence Party came second in Middlesbrough and Rotherham, with the Conservatives trailing in fifth behind the BNP and Respect in the latter. The Lib Dems lost their deposit in two contests where their share of the vote was below five per cent: Rotherham and Croydon North.”

These three results were great for UKIP and terrible for the Conservatives, especially in Rotherham where they came in fifth behind the British National Party and the Respect Party.

I would imagine John Key and his cronies will be taking note of these results; however, they do have one positive on their side that may aid them; the opposition is even further left than they are.

As Redbaiter said, in part, on TrueblueNZ a while back in respect to a list posted on Kiwiblog of possible Cabinet Ministers if Labour—Greens et al. were to win next time round:

“………there is not really any ‘right wing” faction within National. Political tussles occur within the party of course, but just like each 3 year election, it’s basically just a difference of opinion between leftists who merely argue over how to do socialism better than the further left faction called Labour.

The point is that the predictions in the list have a good chance of bearing fruit. So, what can we draw from the fact that NZ is probably about to be governed by a collection of communists and statist nutbars far worse than what we have now?”

Redbaiter couldn’t be more right about this; while the communists and statist nutbars on the far left are very scary indeed, the left-wing National Party merely governs on being marginally less left than their opposition, and that is simply not good enough.

Like the Conservatives in the UK, the National Party was not voted in for a continuance leftist policies—a continuance of the nanny state. Both of these parties were voted in on the very opposite of what they are doing. National was not voted in to sell out to Maori and was most certainly not voted in to expand the nanny state to include gay marriage and adoption.

This is what Nigel Farage said in the following video after the Eastleigh by-election:

“I think the real problem the Conservatives have got isn’t UKIP; the real problem they’ve got is their own supporters look at the Conservative Party that used to talk about wealth creation, low tax, enterprise; it now talks about gay marriage and wind farms.”

What Farage said there is exactly the same problem as we have with John Key; John Key has done absolutely nothing to stimulate enterprise, but he has done a lot to stimulate gay marriage and the selling out of New Zealand to Maori.
