Why bother to get elected as the governing party if all you want to do is to give the task of governing away to Brussels?
Why get into office, tax some small farms out of business, spend subsidies on getting farmers to stop growing food and then say your big idea is to export more food we do not grow to an EU that does not want it? Are they aware of our massive trade deficit in food with the EU and how the EU will want rules that boost their exports to us?
Why get into office, double up on net zero policies that lead to a big acceleration in the rate of closure of high energy using businesses, and why ban all new oil and gas developments at home? Why be so keen to sign up to even higher levels of carbon taxation and carbon tariffs on non EU imports, to put up the cost of living and and ensure the UK closes down more industry? Why is imported CO 2 OK but domestically produced less voluminous CO 2 not OK?
Why get into office by promising to smash the gangs that bring in so many illegal migrants, only to want to sign up to a Youth Scheme which will mean many more EU migrants coming to the UK to study at our expense under Erasmus or to seek homes and work here? Why pretend this is not a partial restoration of freedom of movement under EU approved rules?
Why say aligning us with EU laws – which means making us accept any EU law they care to impose – will increase our growth rate? It did not do so when we joined the EEC, nor when the single market was “completed” in 1992. More laws, more taxes and more Danegeld sent to the EU will not make us richer or generate more well paid jobs here.

Good morning.
They do it because they believe that they are serving a higher purpose, and that purpose is to bring about a Soviet style system of a command economy.
Of course they will say to themselves that it will be different this time.
April 15, 2026
It’s denial of democracy. Our governing establishment don’t want us to leave the EU,and are determined to ensure that we stay tied to it. They know what’s best for us in their own minds.
April 15, 2026
Starmer spent his time in opposition trying to wreck Brexit. Now because the tories never actually co.pleted withdrawal it’s easy for him to rejoin.
He will be using Statutory Instruments rather than legislation to sign us up to all manner of nonesense, just like previous governments.
I understand he’s agreeing to a Farage clause which willsubject us to unrelated beatings if we try to reverse his surrender agreement. Reform must bite the bullet and declare WTO conditions from day one and if necessary put punitive taxes on alk things EU.
April 15, 2026
Putting “punitive taxes on all things EU” is a breach of WTO. You can’t simply decide to impose tariffs above MFN levels “just because you feel like it”. It’s wrong and it’s inflationary even if the current US President thinks it’s a good idea (which it is not).
April 15, 2026
MB,
Yes, I agree there is a doctrine being enacted. People say 2TK is devoid of beliefs and fundamental principles, I disagree, we can deduce the plan from his actions, not his words. Lord J has just posed a number of questions; why is 2TK doing these things and not others? Look for the motivation. Happy to give money to the EU fo nothing but problems, but not willing to commit to money for defence. Why is that?
April 15, 2026
Indeed either they are mad and totally deluded or they are sane – but clearly enemies of the UK with an agenda to damage the UK as much as they can. Any other possible rational explanations?

Interview with Trump where he correctly explains two of the very many reasons why this Labour government are mad (energy and dangerous immigration), his disappointment with Starmer they were not there when needed and threatens to revise the good trade deal we have.

Nuclear fuel costs per KWH is about 0.5p and the World has at least enough for 150 years and with new tech. more like 1000 years+ after fusion Millions of years on demand energy too. Alas so much red tape (largely pointless) and politicians like Clegg is in the way in the UK to ever build the plants needed.

Listened to ‘The World at One’ today to see what was happening in the Middle East.
Instead the programme was mostly about pretending to be gay to gain residence in the UK.
When I was a lad, pretending to be gay would guarantee you were excluded – not to mention the countries these chancers are mostly originating from.
Guest appearance from Peter Tatchell. Remember him ?
April 15, 2026
Why? Because the Establishment’s intention is to make us an Associate Member of the EU when the structure of the EU is reformed after the Ukraine War. Two-Tier’s over-riding priority (as was Sunak’s) is to get us into a position where “our settlement” will be the blueprint for the other currently non-member countries they want in the outer tier, which Zelensky spelt out so clearly the other day: Ukraine, Turkey, Norway and the UK … I’m surprised he left out Iceland, but probably realised that it would be difficult to include little Iceland in his “military” argument.
Cameron made the initial proposal: a two-tier organisation consisting of Eurozone nations (EU) and non-Eurozone (Associate Members of the EU). Merkel rejected it, thinking we would never dare leave. Macron subsequently supported it.
The EU is constructed to create inter-dependence on the necessities for a nation to survive independently: energy, food, manufacturing and now defence. They are all the sectors which Two-Tier is deliberately wrecking, as a means to force us to accept rejoining.
Everything they are doing is deliberate …. as is shipping in the thousands of criminal migrants from France. We are “taking our fair share.”
April 15, 2026
Quite right Donna. I don’t understand why people can’t see it. It’s blatant – I don’t think even the Labour front bench expect their lies to be believed.
April 15, 2026
Seems so – deliberate vandalism from Starmer, Ed Miliband, Lammy, Phillipson, Mahmood, Reeves, Hermer…
Oh dear, the usually sensible Jacob Rees-Mogg an ex-energy minister is going a bit daft saying he likes the idea of using surplus renewable electricity to make green hydrogen. It is vastly expensive to produce and hard and expensive to store and transmit and generally inferior to far cheaper (circa 10 times) natural gas. For all but a few specialist areas H2 makes no sense and even for the specialist areas grey hydrogen is far cheaper anyway. Do the sums Jacob.
Using green hydrogen to “store” surplus electricity and then regenerate it will cost a fortune and waste about 75% of the expensive electrical energy in the process Jacob. Far better just to generate the electricity only as needed from Coal, Gas, Nuclear, Oil or find other ways to use it more usefully.
He also appears to “foolishly still” believe there is something wrong with split infinitives. Not at all Jacob it is often better than not doing so. English is not Latin!
April 15, 2026
Meloni:-
“I find President Trump’s remarks about the Holy Father unacceptable,” Meloni said in a statement. “The Pope is the head of the Catholic Church, and it is right and proper that he call for peace and condemn all forms of war.”
So it is “right and proper” that the Pope condemns ALL forms of war regardless of the consequences of not having the war or of not defending yourself at all is it. Always being pacifist does work very well Meloni. If you are against all wars you are surely also against having any defences or weapons at all.
So best get rid of the Pontifical Swiss Guard then, a small, elite military unit responsible for protecting the Pope, his residence (the Apostolic Palace), and the entrance to Vatican City. Founded in 1506, this force of about 135 Swiss soldiers is known for its traditional, colorful uniforms and acts as the Pope’s personal bodyguard.
April 15, 2026
Christians are not against defence. The Bible and the New Testament describe some instances where the protection of life and property is discussed. They condemn personal vengeance but provide measured responses to legitimate threats.
See Nehemiah 4:17-18 (facing threats from hostile forces) or Romans 13:1-4 (government’s role in protecting citizens and maintaining order).
How LL can link Meloni’s comment to the Pontiff’s 135 Swiss Guards is, as so often with him one of the delights of this blog.
April 16, 2026
If you accept ” measured responses to legitimate threats ” hefner, then you accept more than just defensive actions.
April 15, 2026
So how is growth, growth, growth going Rachael with all your governments insane and patently anti-growth policies?
Key points from the latest IMF assessments:
Worst Growth Hit: The UK is projected to be the worst-hit major economy among the G7 due to the Iran conflict, with 2026 growth slashed by 0.5 percentage points.
Inflation & Energy: The UK’s status as a net energy importer leaves it particularly vulnerable to rising energy costs, which could lead to inflation remaining significantly above the Bank of England’s 2% target.
Unemployment Concerns: The IMF warned that UK unemployment is expected to rise further.
High borrowing costs, high energy costs, very high taxes, high misguided regulation, open borders to liability immigration, vast youth unemployment… what could go wrong?
April 15, 2026
EU dynamic realignment (even without the huge fee) will be yet another doom loop disaster.
April 15, 2026
Jacob, Green hydrogen cost about ten times as much as natural gas, (petrol or diesel before taxes too) and natural gas is, for nearly all applications a rather better gas far cheaper and easier to store and move. Grey hydrogen from natural gas about 1/3 of the cost of green hydrogen if you do need hydrogen for a moon mission or something.
Wind and Solar to green hydrogen is economic and climate lunacy. Just get fracking, drilling, mining and better nuclear. Fusion (in the longer term) will happen & in time for my children I suspect.

LL,
Five posts in a row. No mention of PPE or doom loop. You are slipping.
April 15, 2026
Correction. Doom loop is included. I missed it on the first skim.
April 15, 2026
Doom loop or mad vandalism is surely the best description for this government’s economic and energy polices.
April 15, 2026
“Using green hydrogen to “store” surplus electricity and then regenerate it will cost a fortune and waste about 75% of the expensive electrical energy in the process Jacob.”
The Royal Society’s Large-Scale Electrical Storage Report calculates the price of renewable electricity doubles when using hydrogen (cheaper than batteries) as a store of energy even when doubling the capacity factors and electrolyser efficiency over today’s values. Note that as a result there are no NESO/DESNZ plans for grid scale electricity storage to cover a couple of weeks, even by 2050, which makes the planned electrification of everything a recipe for a terrible disaster. You wouldn’t want a winter like that of 1963/64.

I wonder what Putin would say about that these days?

He would say nothing. He never takes these pygmies seriously. He waiting for the European people to cotton on to who is destroying them.
We might have left it too late.
April 15, 2026
@Donna +1 all freedom loving people see it. The UK’s Socialist media applaud it. 3 more years of wreaking scheduled – the ‘Plan’ with the support of a free-loading Parliament
April 15, 2026
Your appraisal is spot on. The parliamentary measures to enable EU rule taking and quasi EU membership are being introduced quicker than expected, with the effects of the Iran war a useful excuse. I was naive enough to think that primary legislation would be tabled some time before the next general election. I personally blame the previous government for not fulfilling the wishes of the electorate post EU referendum. The dreadful ‘Windsor Framework’ being just one example of paving the way for what the Starmer government is about to impose.
April 15, 2026
I have recently posted two well-researched, but moderated posts, which show that JR’s revisionist economic history – in which all Britain’s ills were directly caused by joining the common market – can be challenged on numerous points.
Methinks it’s time to move on. Trump’s erratic anti-NATO, pro-Russian, anti-EU policies mean we have to have a closer relationship with our neighbours over the Channel
April 15, 2026
Why SG – what’s your logic?
However erratic Trump might be (and he followed on from a President that showed all the signs of advanced mental decline) that’s no good reason to get any closer to the sclerotic EU. The unelected EU commissioners will never change their attitudes towards us, whilst we will have a new President eventually. The base argument remains the same – do we align with the US or China? The EU is no longer relevant and is clearly in steady economic decline. Under this Government we will be locked into that decline. We can currently still make choices, albeit tough ones. Why reduce our options even further- simply because they’ve deliberately made life difficult for us? Surely, that’s all the more reason to give Brussels the Agincourt salute?
BTW – I trust Lord John’s facts somewhat more than yours on these matters – most especially because I cannot think of anyone better qualified to comment on it. You have also been known to give us “facts” that at the very least have been somewhat ‘economical’ with the truth. I remember that you once claimed your EV had a range (350 miles was it?) that even Tesla couldn’t deliver at that time. I recall checking Tesla’s website just to be sure…
April 15, 2026
SG: “Trump’s erratic anti-NATO, pro-Russian, anti-EU policies mean we have to have a closer relationship with our neighbours over the Channel.”
Where’s the logic in that? It would be like jumping from the frying pan into the fire. We know from history just how much they like us.
April 15, 2026
Depends what you mean by “a closer relationship” SG
I would like to live in an independent democratic nation.
I want my laws, directives, rules and regulations made by my duly elected national Government.
April 15, 2026
Like the poster who claimed everything was the fault of pensioners, you would be missed.
I might not agree with you – but it makes a change from reading the same comments everyday. The reaction posts can also be entertaining. Though I don’t believe you are trolling.
April 16, 2026
@Peter
I have already commented on the Chagos issue. Why be repetitive? There are other, interesting issues to post about. Like the prospect of getting free solar energy at the weekends to charge up your EV and get free motoring for the rest of the week
April 16, 2026
But it’s not “Free” SG is it?
Someone, somewhere has to pay the running and capital costs of that solar or wind farm installation. What you are really telling us is that renewables are generating power when we don’t need it – and that power has to be consumed or it will crash the grid.
April 16, 2026
Nothing you post is researched at all Mr Cold.
Why you flaunt your idiocy every day is a puzzle.
Every day posters point out how inept you are, but you are so bigoted and self centred you really think you are right and everyone else is wrong, like King Charles, in spite of all the evidence to the contrary.
April 16, 2026
Ha, yeah! JR believes putting up bariiers to trade increases trade. Perhaps he can explain to us why he thinks Adan Smith and 300 years of economists are wrong.
Reply If you wish to listened to on this site you should read my views. I believe in getting trade barriers down by multilateral not unilateral action, as in GATT. I advocated the unilateral removal of tariffs completely from 24% of our imports as a Brexit win, which the last government executed, on items we do not make or grow and on intermediates.
April 15, 2026
PM Questions should be very interesting to watch today or not, let’s see how many none answers the snake oil salesman says today, I don’t know how he sleeps straight in his bed, the country is on its knees waiting to be invaded by Putin or whoever and i wouldn’t be surprised if kneel a lot does bugger off abroad for the day

April 15, 2026
why have the public sector officials and officers who allowed the southport massacre to take place not been sacked? why are they not being prosecuted? why is such poor performance routine in our public sector, and why can public sector officials get promoted after such performance?
why are the public sector so unaccountable?
April 15, 2026
The point of Brexit was to let Westminster decide our laws. And Mr Starmer is doing exactly that. We are not in the EU, but, in order to increase trade, we are choosing of our own free will to align our laws with the EU’s. Our sovereign choice. This is Brexit. You voted for it. You won, get over it
April 15, 2026
@John Bull – a flaw in your observation. The EU still makes UK Law, that is not just the laws for those trading with the EU, but the Laws within the country itself. At least 4,000 EU laws still govern how the UK and its Parliament act within its own territory. Essentially some one that works in the UK has to do what the EU says they must do. UK fishing in UK territorial waters ( that’s inside our own borders ) is run by the EU with the EU taking the bulk of the catches.
As for Starmer doing exactly that, we is he proposing that all future changes that the EU makes to our Laws wont be debated by our democratically elected representatives, but instead just imposed.
As you well know there will be no increase in trade because of Starmer making things up.
April 16, 2026
Nope. No EU law applies in the UK. None. Not one word. Everything that applies in the UK is UK law. We have chosen to align with EU law especially in Northern Ireland but we do so because our Parliament has chosen to do so. As ever, you Brexiters don’t seem to know what you voted for or what you have got
April 15, 2026
Exactly right sir! It’s amazing how when the Brexiters get exactly what they voted for, they cry foul! Almost like they never understood what they were voting for!
April 15, 2026
Brexit has never happened, the UK Parliament blocked it. The vote was very very simple leave or stay, no other option asked, suggested or was needed. The people voted ‘Leave’ the UK Parliament choses to stay creating Brino.
So no, the Brexiters never got exactly what they voted for. That’s why it is one hell of a mess, are Parament is still running around like headless chickens trying to carve out one fudge after another.
April 16, 2026
The people voted Leave. And we have left. end of
April 16, 2026
Do you promise? We have left and can ignore all the laws emanating from the EU? Because by implied repeal that removes tens, maybe hundreds of thousands of unwelcome laws.
April 15, 2026
Being taken over by Brussels, aligning all our rules with the EU with no representation is hardly brexit,
April 16, 2026
It is 100% Brexit. We choose to align with the EU. We don’t have to, we choose to. That’s Brexit! You don’t like it? We told you you wouldn’t. But you voted for it
April 15, 2026
Let’s not pussyfoot around with trying to understand the motives behind this utter treachery – Our PM is a TRAITOR several times over…
….and not just because he has plotted against the British people and a valid referendum. He is fully responsible for the sorry state of our country and should be held responsible outside outside of elections.
April 15, 2026
There appears to be a common “because” for all of this: because it furthers the goal of subjecting the ordinary plebs of the UK to what is grimly described as Agenda 2030, whereby they are further controlled and impoverished and lose many elements of their ordinary quality of life, for the purpose of some nebulous “common good” that only serves to leave a globalist elite firmly and comfortably in charge. No one voted for this, and no one stood on an express platform to enable a vote to be cast for it.
April 15, 2026
Why – because our politicians do not have confidence in the British people to put in the hard yards without voting them out of office.
Blaming someone else is infinitely preferable. Excluding the effects of Covid lockdowns we have grown since 2016, our performance has been better than the EU overall but rejoining is a good soundbite
April 15, 2026
Calling it a ”Sell-Out” is an understatement
April 15, 2026
Perhaps we should call it a “Chagos” where we give away a large sum as well as the asset we own?

Excellent analogy
April 15, 2026
In the end the choice won’t be theirs.
Listening to James Murray (42 y.o. new Chief sec to Treasury), St Paul’s, PPE Wadham, on Today programme we can see how it will pan out.
Insufficient Defence spending leading to us turning into a Putin-esque state, where his type will be seen as faux martyrs who “didn’t want it to happen”, or willing slaves in an Islamic state. Meantime 100% reliant on EU teat where they can be clever clever figureheads with zero responsibility.
Worrying yes. Inevitable, no. It can still be turned around but boy it’s going to be a fight.
April 15, 2026
Why indeed? The answer can’t be that they are too thick to understand the ramifications. I started out thinking of them as “Starmer and the Morons” a kind of 70’s punk band (although Sid Vicious was more entertaining). But they simply can’t be that stupid (although one or two might be)
Unfortunately, the truth is far worse, it can only be pure ideology. A fanatical socialist belief that they have all the solutions to the worlds problems. Or perhaps we should call them for what they really are. The New Communist Party of GB, with Chairmsn Starmer at it’s head (for now). Seventy years of slow, patient infiltration of our universities, schools and civil government. Private enterprise is not required in this Brave New World apart to provide interim funding for their own demise.
So there’s no real point in analysing their growth plans, they don’t have any. Just a long term ambition to retain power that Stalin would have been proud of. They are working towards the Sovietisation of this country and national bankruptcy is just one possible route towards that goal. Starmer is still a Trot at heart and Milliband a Marxist – both hiding in plain sight. Starmers band should be called “Chairman Starmer and the Commisars”. That’s where we are heading.
April 15, 2026
One of the areas where the UK has diverged from the EU is in allowing gene-edited crops which have a different definition to GMO crops. It is one of the very few areas of science in which UK has some sort of leading position. Aligning with the EU, which heavily restrict both types of crops, will stop this research – as the EU no doubt intend.
I see they are running down the Turing scheme which enabled UK students to study in Canada, USA and Australia in addition to the EU in favour of the Erasmus scheme which only enables them to study in Hungary, Finland and Romania and other EU countries. Seems like a bad deal for UK students, though of course an excellent deal for EU students.
April 15, 2026
“The great EU re set is the great EU sell out” of course it is. It is part of the ‘Plan’ they only ‘Plan’
The UK Parliament has never forgiven the electorate for asking it to ‘manage’, take charge and govern. To ensure this time there could be no way back Parliament, offered as it leader a devious Lawyer, that previously worked tirelessly to destroy the fabric of a UK Society. Coupled that with wreaking all parts of the UK and its Citizen economy to make the struggle to be free even harder.
The UK and its people are being moved fully back under the Yoke of the EU, without a mandate, a vote or choice by those that want to get back to sitting on their hands take the money and orders from an unelected unaccountable Foreign (in Culture & Deed) overlord.
The ‘Plan’ , working as required, another 3 years to impoverish a people and consolidate the removal of the UK from the Map & History

Why’s that SB? Is it because it’s much easier to just ‘dismiss’ rather than actaully ‘debate’?
That seems to be the attitude of the Liberal Left these days. Just throw a bucketful of emotion at any argument with key ‘Trigger’ words (Human Rights, Child Poverty, Genocide, Racism etc ) and simply avoid any awkward underlying facts.

‘sovereignty’, ‘control’, ‘independence’, ‘borders’, ‘growth’, ‘GDP’, ‘trade deals’, ‘domestic priorities’, … aren’t those words also triggers for certain people to shut up a debate ?

Living under this government is like being in a car with a reckless driver. You can see the crash coming but can’t do anything about it! We have a PM and government that seems to hate the UK and its people, and will always make the worst possible decision.
Starmer opposed leaving the EU, did everything he could to stop it, and now, with the power to ignore the largest democratic vote in the UK’s history, he will give away anything and any amount of money to get us back in as rule takers. At what point does a PM’s conduct become treason? For me, the PM has already passed the point of no return. Welfare rather than defence spending is just another example of his dangerous incompetence.
April 16, 2026
The crash is very close. Very.

Starmer is undemocratic. As soon as we took the decision to leave the EU he was actively working to try to reverse the decision. We would be better off as an independent nation, making our own decisions to do what is best for our own citizens instead of being shackled to a nuisance of other nations dictating what they want us to do.
Even irrespective of EU interference, Labour policies are degrading and impoverishing our country. Ridding them from control should enable our people to recover and regain much of what Labour has destroyed.
April 15, 2026
To answer the questions you ask John requires honesty from the Labour government. After the record presented to us by this government so far, invented black holes, obfuscation re Lord Mandelson, smashing the gangs…..etc, I am reasonably sure Labour and honesty are strangers that will never be seen together.
April 15, 2026
‘Why, why, why?’, indeed! And what of those who vote for them? ‘Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools’ (Romans 1:22). Without repentance towards God, our country is doomed to a fate of its own making. This is the just judgement of a holy God, from whose almighty hand we received so much in times past, as I well remember! ‘Happy is that people who is in such a case: yea, happy is that people whose God is the LORD’ (Psalm 144:15).
April 15, 2026
Are there any limits to what a PM can give away to the EU in order to become an associate member (aka a colony) of the EU? Last time we gave away our fish. Could this time be our North Sea assets and is this why the government keeps telling us that there is nothing left to extract? Or, given the PM’s desire to give away sovereign territory, perhaps he could give away a slice of the UK? Perhaps Northern Ireland to the EU as whole? Can the PM sign an agreement with the EU which would cost us £trillions to exit? Even if the PM does none of these there will still be a continuing £100bn/year trading deficit with the EU, freedom of movement, planned to include illegal migrants into the EU who have been given temporary EU Leave to Remain, large payments for any reason they can dream up and the continued Net Zero and CBAM de-industrialisation policy to sabotage our energy and hence destroy our economy and national security. All to further impoverish us as Socialism depends upon making and keeping people poor.
April 15, 2026
So they can enjoy the salaries and privileges of office and carry on playing the game of braying at each other from two swords-length apart without having any actual responsibility. You can bet that if they do transfer control back to Brussels there will be no reduction in the number of MPs.
April 15, 2026
Why? Because the last government failed those people who wanted total independence from the socialist EU, politically.
And because they can.
April 15, 2026
All the financial incentives for an MP favour EU membership. Champagne class expenses, absence of responsibility, someone else to blame. What’s not to like, unless the MP for reasons of oiutdated patriotism and principle puts UK’s interests above all others including self. And even that is not the end of it. The EU’s driving purpose is to dimiinish the responsibiliities of national governments so that nothing of importance is decided by them and every important issue is decided by unelected bureaucrats answerable only to the heads of executive government whose diniminished national responsibilities means that they will not be accountable for any decision they and their unelected buraeucrats make collectively in the EU Council. The EU could not have been designed better had its intentional primary purpose been to circumvent democracy for the ruling eite. But as it turns out cirumventing democracy has been its key advantage to the political classes.
April 15, 2026
In 1957 there was a fabulous film entitled Quatermass 2, which gave me a nightmare, whereby a number of citizens were showered with ballot papers (sorry, meteorites) which, when opened, meant that they had to follow a certain doctrine, dictated by a blob, that was destructive to their country and fellow citizens. An MP, who was subsequently killed by the monster that had been unleashed, pointed out how it would ultimately lead to disaster for their country and was eventually heeded with a successful outcome. Almost prescient.
April 15, 2026
Why sign us up at all to a Bankrupt E.U. we had to bail out in 2010. Surely Parliament and the House of Lords can not allow Starmer to sign us up to this reset which will cost us Billions and Crucify us. This is not the Democracy of a Sovereign Country.

I have always been bewildered by the “Remainers” who would prefer those who set OUR laws be unelected and unaccountable foreigners residing in a foreign country when we can actually hire and fire our own people here in GB.
No citizen of the EU member countries can elect or remove from office the sole lawmakers of the European Commission.
