I’m no fan of English politicians. Born a Rhodesian, I consider myself a casualty, having been on the receiving end of their deceit and moral cowardice when they deemed it expedient to abandon principle, promises, and their own kith and kin, simply because the world suddenly decided that Europeans had no right to be in Africa. But watching the shambles unfold at Westminster is not something I celebrate. If the English got nothing else right, they were the absolute masters of good governance. Thanks in no small way to them, the structures of government and law they introduced to countries

Excellent commentary. I never visited Rhodesia, but I have friends who did and report, like all others do, that it was a wonderful, modern, clean, wealthy, productive place before the hordes of violent tribal illiterates swarmed over it and drove it back into the ruin of corruption, dysfunction and starving disaster that seems to be the normal state of tribal black Africa.
And now the Brits, infested with communists, leftists and hordes of foreigners with citizenship who see it as a religious duty to destroy and enslave ´the unbelievers´, is circling the drain, too.
Sad that only a generation past Churchill, the best that Britain can muster is the sad foolishness of May, Corbin and other such brainless, destructive fools. That May and Corbin claim to be political opposites seems ridiculous from the other side of the Atlantic where whatever differences they may claim are barely discernible. They are all various shades of weak leftists, groveling before the EU, with seemingly, only slight style differences in precisely how they will grovel. Are there no British leaders able to stand up and tell their German/French/Belgian EU masters to go to hell, and stand free on trade and other issues?
Too bad the Brits don´t have their own patriotic leader like Trump.

Only when the entire world is miserable, cold, hungry, sick, and bound by serfdom will the Left be happy. Ever notice how the Left always points out problems but never offers solutions? They only make problems worse. Rhodesia/Zimbabwe is a perfect example. The country was once lnown as "the breadbasket of Africa", now it has to import food. Some progress, eh?

Because the Elites never suffer from the policies they impose on everyone else.

An airline pilot friend once told me that he had heard the FAA´s new slogan:
"We´re not happy until you´re not happy!"
I think that is actually the slogan of the left/communists/socialists.

Freedom and prosperity must be fought for each and every generation. England stopped fighting long ago.
The only reason America has any hope at all, is because we have dogmatically refused to hand over our weapons to our government.

Looks like the U.K. Parliament has transformed itself into a pretty much socialist Monte Python style laughing stock that is OK with being taken advantage of by the French-German dominated European Union (EU) that would love to give a million or so foreign origin Muslims EU citizenship, and under EU free movement of people rules send as many as possible of them to resettle in the U.K. By passing the Brexit referendum, UK voters tried to get out of the EU to, among other things, stop that uncontrolled migration from happening. But it looks like enough of the Monte Python style socialist members of Parliament are aligned with international special interests over the majority of referendum voters to politically nickel and dime the issue and eventually stop the U.K. from leaving the EU, at least this time around. I don’t think that Winston Churchill or Margaret Thatcher would agree with what the Parliament is doing?

RE #1: Paging Nigel Farage ..
The root problem is need for a new party. Akin to the preamble of our Consitution: when existing political parties fail to represent the interests of the people and their nation (it is of, by, and for them afterall) it is their right, it is their duty to throw off the established parties and form a new one to represent their interests.
There is nothing in our Consitiution that limits us to two branches of a UniParty - and activist courts have no say in the matter.

Like us, the Brits have a UniParty with two main branches that do a kabuki dance to convince voters that they are different from each other.
The main differences between Britain and America at this point are that we Americans all still have guns and we have Donald Trump (thank God).
