Nigel Farage has been the voice of British nationalism for a couple of decades. Fourteen years ago, he drove the movement that successfully forced the United Kingdom to exit the European Union; “Brexit.” And he helped the Conservative Party (the Tories) regain their majority and sweep back into power on the basis of his Brexit campaign.
And then these Tories ruled for a decade as the Leftists they truly were. And this allowed the Left (Labor, The Green Party and the Liberal Democrats) to regain control of Parliament and wreak further havoc on the English in their own country. Basically, the Tories and the Left have gone all in on turning Britain into a land of third world immigrants.
In the last few years Farage has spearheaded a new party called the Reform.
Well, the chickens have come home to roost. Current polls show voters have the following preferences:
- Reform – 28%
- Labour – 19%
- Tories – 18%
- Greens – 15%
- Liberal Democrats – 13%
Interestingly, this new party now leads both traditional parties; Labour and the Tories by about ten percentage points. This just shows how hated both parties have become. But note that neither the Left nor the Right have a solid majority on which to base a coalition. Reform and the Tories together have 46% of the electorate. The three leftist parties; Labour, the Greens and the Liberal Democrats control 47%. So, the remaining seven percent must be made up of people so apathetic they still can’t figure out which side to vote for. Basically, the electoral situation is on the razor’s edge. Now doesn’t that sound familiar?
So just as in the United States control of the government oscillates back and forth between the Left and the Right. And each oscillation enrages the partisans out of power and eggs them on to greater and greater revenge when they do return.
Just as in Britain, so too here eventually something has got to give. My guess is that it will eventually cause some large-scale violence and after that there will be a political solution involving a permanent division, either complete or else some constitutional change to give greater autonomy to both sides within the states where majorities for the Left or the Right have firm control. And probably the “purple” states will have to choose which side they want to get in bed with.
Now, this idea isn’t something I enjoy. The United States is the only home I have ever known. And so many things about it are wonderful. But there is no longer one people living here. There are two. And they believe in diametrically opposed visions of how this country should work. And since the Left is the group trying to change “the deal,” they are going to have to be the ones excluded from the areas where the Right wants to live. They’re using unlimited third world immigration to drown out their opponents at the polls. So citizenship in the blue states will not be automatically transferrable to the red states. And you can imagine how this will end up becoming very ugly after the initial breakup of the country. Families may end up stuck on both sides of a divided America. But that’s what seems to be coming.
