There is no way that Thomas Crooks was acting alone when he tried to assassinate President Donald Trump in Butler, PA yesterday. It is perfectly clear that the Secret Service were ordered to give him a clear shot – there is no way that the security failures can be put down to mere negligence. It was ‘take a shot’ security, if security is not too strong a word with respect. The FBI have already announced that they will be orchestrating a cover-up. (That’s not quite how they put it of course, but it’s what they meant.)

We already know what the FBI’s conclusion will be – that Crooks, thankfully now an ex-murderer, acted alone. The FBI however still maintain, against the weight of the evidence, that Lee Harvey Oswald both shot President John F. Kennedy and acted alone. Each proposition is absurd. In the case of a government agency, adopting either proposition indicates corruption and a willingness to go along with murder.

As I know from my case, where the FBI acted on orders from the Obama White House to suppress an investigation into an invented conversation with an unnamed FBI agent by a retired Leicestershire police officer at my rigged bomb hoax trial, they are subject to political interference. The big question is whether or not Joe Biden ordered the hit.
 

The problem for the FBI with a cover-up of course is that it makes them accessories after the fact to murder, not forgetting that sadly a Trump supporter was fatally shot. Should President Trump win re-election there would be nothing to stop him replacing the criminally negligent, no offense intended, directors of the FBI and Secret Service with serious individuals. I have a couple of intelligence generals in mind whom I would be able to recommend. (This column is going to a good friend of the President.)

We can dispense straight away with Crooks’s registration as a Republican. He was very obviously ordered to register, indeed such political history as he had was left wing, not right wing. It’s meaningless, apart from the fact that it points towards Democratic Party involvement. The covert German DVD, which specialises in political assassination, will of course have been sitting in the background.

On the cui bono principle Joe Biden has some serious questions to answer, not least given the timing. He’s trying to stay in the race after a disastrous debate performance against Donald Trump. With his party in turmoil, assassinating his opponent just before the Republican convention would be one way out. Biden has a huge ego, no offense intended (even bigger than mine) and is desperate not to lose against Donald Trump in November. He is also a nasty piece of work, no offense intended, who cheated his way into the Oval Office.

The good news is firstly that the attempt failed. President Trump was only slightly wounded. Secondly, the desperate resort to assassination suggests that neither the Democrats nor the Correa Group are expecting to get away with rigging November’s election in the same way that they rigged 2020. Finally, the attempt on his life, and Donald Trump’s coolness and courage under fire, will most likely give him a poll bounce. The Republican base won’t just be upset by this, they will be enraged.

UK Election Wrap

It was a landslide, but very nearly wasn’t. Labour won 411 seats (Jeremy Corbyn, oddly enough for a former Labour Leader, doesn’t count) but achieved less than 34% of the vote. Turnout was low, less than 60%. Labour’s popular vote was just 9,731,363, less than what Jeremy Corbyn achieved in both 2017 and 2019.

Sir Keir Starmer’s vote in Holborn and St Pancras collapsed to fewer than 19,000. Had the decline in Labour’s vote continued at the rate I calculated in my last column Labour would not have achieved a majority had the election campaign lasted another week.

The gap between the Labour and Conservative vote share was about half that predicted in the last round of mega-polls. Put another way, the pollsters underperformed yet again, exaggerating the left-wing vote.

The SNP vote collapsed, a major contributor to the Labour win, although in the end they won England as well. There was no real love for Labour though. Many Tory voters either stayed at home or switched to Reform. Turnout was low, less than 60%. Labour were backed by only about one-fifth of the electorate and their majority is soft.

The new government

The new government has gotten off to a disastrous start, trashing Britain’s oil and gas industry, endangering the Green Belt and encouraging yet more illegal migrants, four of whom died, to cross the Channel in its first week. Sir Keir Starmer mumbled a few cliches in his speech on the steps of Downing St. but didn’t mean them. With apologies to Yes Prime Minister he can speak in cliches until the cows come home.

Rachel Reeves, Britain’s clueless Chancellor.

New Chancellor Rachel Reeves laid the groundwork for tax rises. She claims to have discovered that there was less money in the kitty than she thought there would be, but I am quite sure that Treasury officials had fully briefed her in before she took office.

Like the Treasury itself Rachel is economically illiterate, not having grasped the Laffer Curve. Moreover, with every respect she’s never going to grasp it. She’s not bright enough. In her world the only way to increase tax revenues is to increase taxes. The Treasury are the ‘enemy within’, to adopt the phrase coined by my old friend Lady Thatcher.

For over a hundred years they have been desperate to starve Britain of cash. Anxious to hand over our Empire in the Far East to Japanese militarists in the late 1920s and 1930s they strangled the Naval Estimates and tried to block the development of our great naval base at Singapore. Being snivelling cowards, no offense intended, they made sure of course that they were safe at home when the Japs rolled in. Like the Civil Service as a whole the Treasury are more interested in looking after themselves than the British people, whom they despise.

Some of Starmer’s ministerial appointments were clearly dictated by the Kabinettratsführer, Simon ‘von’ Case. Sir Patrick Vallance, who is a half-crazed global warming nutter, no offense intended, has been created Lord Vallance and appointed as a science minister! Arguably it’s the worst appointment since the late Emperor Caligula appointed his horse as a consul. Indeed, since the story was probably dreamt up by anti-Caligulites after his assassination, it could be the worse appointment ever. (Caligula of course was an even worse leader than Joe Biden, no offense intended.)

It rather looks as though President Zelensky has some kompromat on Sir Keir, possibly related to the contents of his old KGB file, an extract from Sir Keir’s Czech StB file having been published by the Daily Mail during the campaign. The StB of course worked closely with the KGB. The Ukrainian SBU in turn got hold of the old KGB files on Ukraine’s breakaway from Russia.

At any rate Sir Keir caved in rapidly to Zelensky’s frankly dangerous demand for permission to use the Franco-British Storm Shadow cruise missile against targets in Russia. Thankfully the Defence Intelligence Staff stepped in and asked the French to exercise their veto, given the number of French bits in the missile.

Should Sir Keir be forced to resign, which is not beyond the bounds of possibility, Angela Rayner, whose tax affairs came under police scrutiny, would take over as Acting Leader. Should she invite Jeremy Corbyn to rejoin the Party, under my reading of the Labour Rule Book, he would immediately be eligible to stand for Leader. Only voters need to have been in the Party for six months, not candidates.

If Jeremy Corbyn were to be elected Leader Labour might split, paving the way for a fresh general election. Watch this space!

The Tory leadership race

Rishi Sunak, thankfully, has resigned as Leader of the Tory Party. The Tory left took a hammering in the election, and rightly so, given that it was the failure to implement the impressive 2019 manifesto which caused Tory support to collapse.

Whilst a couple of raving moderates, no offense intended, have expressed interest in standing the two front-runners are that nice lady Suella Braverman and the scheming, ambitious Kemi Badenoch, again no offense intended.

Suella (named by the way for the Sue Ellen character in Dallas) has sensible views on a deal with my party, Reform, led by that nice man Nigel Farage. If the Tories give way in the north and Reform in the south we could see a conservative coalition elected, possibly with additional support from the DUP in Northern Ireland. There’s not a lot of difference between the 2019 Tory manifesto and Reform’s manifesto this time around.

A joint programme might embrace withdrawal from the failed Refugee and European Human Rights Conventions, a referendum on hanging (on the basis that convicted murderers would only be hanged in the nicest possible way), tax cuts, cutting EU-sourced red tape and a free trade deal with a Trump-led America. Repatriation of the vast sums salted away offshore owed to the Treasury by British-domiciled businesses, including banks, and high net worth individuals would upset the Treasury (always a good idea) and clear the way for a badly needed trebling of defense expenditure.

 

The Euros

This is being written before the final in Berlin’s Olympic Stadium tonight! Spain are a good team but I’m predicting the biggest win over the Spaniard since the Armada. Good luck to England!

In a change of protocol for the Olympic Stadium I gather that the teams will not be required to give the Nazi salute before the match. Interestingly, there is a possibility that the referee, Francois Letexier, has not been bribed. In the old days refs could get 1 million euros for swinging a match against England. A final would probably have been worth 10!

Refereeing in European Championships however has now come under intense intelligence scrutiny. In a break with tradition the DVD have not tried to murder the England team in a plane crash, break one of the legs of our best player (captain Harry Kane) or have anyone arrested on their way to the match on a fake theft charge.

This week’s TV review: House of Cards (Netflix, Airdates 2013-2018)

Based on the 1989 book by British political thriller writer Michael Dobbs and the 1990 British TV series of the same name House of Cards famously starred gay actor Kevin Spacey in the lead, playing nasty southern Democrat Frank Underwood, who ends up President.

The British series introduced audiences to the idea of a killer Prime Minister. Both the book and the series were roughly contemporaneous with the GO2 sponsored coup against Lady Thatcher, which involved the murder of her close associate Ian Gow MP. With the EU bullying Britain into signing the Maastricht Treaty and scrapping the pound British politics was about to get a lost nastier and more violent.

Since House of Cards we have of course seen the EU-related assassinations of Sir James Goldsmith, Christopher Story and Jo Cox MP, with GO2 assassinating another MP, Sir David Amess. America has also seen a number of assassinations and attempted assassinations, including the shooting last night of Donald Trump of course.

The US version was very well done. Whilst his character may have been modelled on Joe Biden, no offense intended, Kevin Spacey managed to make him seem almost human. His southern accent was superbly done!

The series fell away when Kevin Spacey was controversially axed, based on some frankly flimsy and rather stale abuse allegations, wholly unsupoorted by medical evidence. In the final series his wife Claire, very well played by Robin Wright, becomes President, modelling herself I suspect on Hillary Clinton, again no offense intended. It is always a mistake to kill off your lead character however.
