McDonnell's Speech - Barnstormer. Panic in the usual circles

The Corbyn experiment will end in disaster for Labour because it is pretty clear that Corbyn lacks the courage of Farage, he is not straight-talking and he will bow and kiss the hand of the Establishment when they demand it.

Corbyn will be stitched up by his own Oxbridge team within Labour and by the Oxbridge Establishment outside of Labour and at every stage, he will dance and bow to their tune and ask them to "review" his policies. The Piers Gaveston will "review" his policies and the media Establishment will say that the policies seem to have been drawn up by a bunch of teenage Trot intern whizzkids from Oxbridge and will ask the question "Does Corbyn love his country?"

The public, who expected some results and some changes in policy, will grow weary of "reviews" and Oxbridge teenage advisers, and will start to ask whether Corbyn shares the values of the Piers Gaveston rather than the values of the people, and it will be Establishment business as usual.

The game now moves across the Ocean, back to Trump. There is panic in the usual circles about Trump.

'Funnily enough I haven't noticed any whiff of panic in your so-called Establishment Elite'

That is because you haven't been paying enough attention.

"But the mood music feels different here, and that is reflected in the first waves of establishment panic. This week has seen an extraordinary number of columnists penning anti-Corbyn pieces.

"Now, now, you've had your fun", is the tone of these... "But seriously. It's time to grow up. Knock it off."

At first, the Establishment was in panic about Corbyn and McDonnell because they thought they really might be doing "straight talkning honest politics" (a line they stole from Farage). But after watching them both dodge straight questions, bottle it repeatedly and call for "reviews" by teams of Oxbridge interns, the Piers Gaveston is now laughing its head off. The Establishment are reeling the "terrible two" in.

Corbyn, who struggles to answer a straight questiion with anything other than how "kind" he is, needed help to write his Conference Speech. The Establishment offered him help with a Torjan Horse of teenage whizzkids from Oxbridge to help write the salient points for him. What they came up with at the Piers Gaveston was "I love my country" and Corbyn was delighted with their contribution and will repeat it with glee on the podium. Meanwhile the Establishment are laughing their heads off as they set the agenda and Corbyn follows it. They are no longer panicking, they have got them where they want them. McDonnell is all "reviews" and no trousers.

I don't flip-flop, I change with the times as I watch what happens and it is clear that Corbyn and McDonnell are "review" bottlers who aren't straight-talking and that is why the Piers Gaveston is doing the conga.

Is McDonnell a PPE?

For the first time ever, I agree with Blairite McTernan. McTernan said that he has no idea what McDonnell is doing apart from "consulting". This is Oxbridge Labour Big Conversation all over again. McDonnell hasn't got a clue, he has to "consult" and have a "review" to know which tie to wear.

It's back to Farage.

Evan Davies thinks it is going well for Corbyn and Allegra Stratton disagrees and says it is not going well for Corbyn. I think she is right. Corbyn and McDonnell are bottlers, they don't even have the courage to answer straight questions like Farage does for instance Corbyn on the national anthem.

As time goes on, the Establishment will reel them in hook line and sinker. They are giving the team that needs endless "reviews" to make up their minds, enough rope to hang themselves.

McDonnell has bottled it. He is not going against globalisation. He is all spin unfortunately. He hasn't really thought anything through. He is all about "reviews" to tell him what to do because he hasn't got a clue. Both Corbyn and McDonnell are showing signs of bottling it under Establishment pressure from Labour grandees. They have backtracked and bottled it over lots of issues now as the Establishment turns the thumb screws on them. Neither of them have the courage to do "straight talking honest politics" like Farage.

The only hope is Trump. We will have to see if he wins.

"Back in the real world..."

"Donald Trump sparks GOP establishment panic: State parties plot to derail surging campaign

State leaders' plans are the latest sign that the Trump phenomenon is no flash in the pan "

You have to understand what Trump signifies. He signifies that the game is up. The Establishment and global warming mandarins are in meltdown. They know Trump won't have any truck with crap.

We still don't know if Trump is part of a conspiracy to help the politically correct Clintons. But if he isn't, then the gloves are off and from the panic in Establishment circles, it looks like Trump could well be for real and that the people are back.

McDonnell has just said on Newsnight that income tax is not his main area of interest and he doesn't see it as going above 50%. Excellent stuff, he will not hit the people and the middle classes. I hope he hits the charidees but being politically correct I doubt he will have the courage to do that.

' 'elite, PPE, Oxbridge, Gaveston, the people, metropolitan, Harvard, blah...'

You missed out luvvies

Piers Gaveston is a new addition to the list. Before last week I had never heard of the toffs and in some ways it would have been better not to have heard of what they get up to.

"Donald Trump slams Pacific free trade deal

Donald Trump has lashed out against President Obama's plans to create a free trade area across the Pacific.
...
But Trump believes the deal would hurt U.S. businesses, particularly manufacturers, and put people out of work."

money.cnn.com/2015/04/23/news/economy/trump-trade-deal/

It is all coming to an end, Trump will change the world and puppet politicians across the world are in panic as they try to obey their elite masters in stopping the tide towards Trump. And Trump will end their global warming game too.

Fox News is against Trump, the Republican Establishment is against Trump, the elite are in panic over Trump, but as ever the people are with Trump.

I think this is teh elite's mantra - globalisation. But even there the elite are in retreat and the people are back.

"Borders are closing and banks are in retreat. Is globalisation dead?"
...
Globalisation is under attack. It was meant to be the unstoppable economic force bringing prosperity to rich and poor alike, but that was before the financial crisis ripped up the rulebook.
...
And where politicians are pushing for renewed trade liberalisation – in the transatlantic trade deal known as TTIP, for example – they are facing a powerful public campaign from consumers nervous that multinationals will be handed too much control.
...
Ann Pettifor, of thinktank Prime Economics, says the impact of the financial crisis has led the public to feel they need protection from the ravages of the markets – an instinct described by the economist Karl Polanyi in the 1930s and 1940s.

“It has made us more inward-looking and more nationalist,” she says. “Polanyi said what people were looking for was protection from the markets – from these forces that appear to be beyond our control.” Pettifor argues that the resurgence of Scottish nationalism, rising support for the Front National in France, and the election of the radical Syriza government in Greece, can all ultimately be traced back to some version of this impulse.
...
And just as governments have not always been good at protecting their citizens from rapid inflows and outflows of foreign money, the failure to shield workers from foreign competition has also undermined faith in globalisation.
...
But globalisation has also become a scapegoat for mass layoffs and stagnating wages among workers in some developed countries, as manufacturing jobs have been shifted offshore.

That argument has been particularly powerful in America, where trade unions have fought against further trade liberalisation. “I have always thought that the greatest threat to globalisation is the US,” says Bergsten. He believes public scepticism has been fuelled by his country’s lack of an effective social safety net – the limited support for workers who lose their jobs.

“The US is a big winner from globalisation, but within that there are probably millions of losers, and they don’t have anywhere to turn,” he says. In Europe, it has been migration flows – a different aspect of global economic integration – that have caused controversy.

The world is changing. Trump will change it, Farage will change it and McDonnell will change it. The gravy train of the political class is over, the people are back. The myth of the elite's globalisation agenda is on the rocks and Trump will end it.

“I have always thought that the greatest threat to globalisation is the US,” says Bergsten."

'Donald Trump has as much chance on becoming president next year as I do'

Watch this space. It is possible that Trump is a phoney candidate to help Clinton, but we don't know yet, he may be for real and if he is, he wil ltrounce the Establishment political class because people in America are just like people here and have had enough of the puppets and the lobbyists.

'Bailing out the banks saved the poor a lot more than it saved the rich.'

No, it saved the rich and the poor paid to save them. Austerity was imposed on them in order to bail out the rich. It was the biggest handout of public money to private hands in the history of the world and the people didn't have a choice in the matter as the political class were "all in it together". We have had the longest period of low growth for a century.

Paul Mason showed City buildings going up using cheaper foreign steel. We should protect our steel industry and use it for projects within this country in order to maintain our industry and maintain jobs and tax receipts from them rather than having to pay for unemployment instead.

'The only way to cause a resurgence of US jobs through trade deals is import duties. The US did this recently with stopping Chinese sales of steel. This saved US steel jobs, but cost more US car
manufacturing jobs because the high price of steel made the cars less competitive.'

Yes, but Trump is like Farage, he is not Oxbridge or PPE. Trump wil impose duties on cars manufactured with cheaper steel in order to protect American industry and American jobs. Trump is for the people, he wants to "make America great again", he is not a piuppet politician in the usual style. And what Trump does will spread like wildfire across the entire planet and puppet politicians will fall from power like skittles across the EU and everywhere else. Corbyn's election is a sign that times have changed, that the people are back and the Blairites, the puppets and the elites are on the backfoot.

Sorry McDonnell must understand the middle class in order to succeed. We will have to wait and see if he is up to the challenge and whether he can join Trump in the global people's revolution.
