I read this morning that Jeremy Corbyn is set to join thousands of demonstrators on the streets of London today (Tuesday 04 JUNE 2019) in protest over Donald Trump's UK state visit.
Apparently the Labour leader will not only attend and speak
at the rally, but it is reported that he is ‘gearing up’ to actually lead
the demonstration, which has been planned to coincide with the US
President's talks with the Prime Minister.
Now let me say now that I don't agree with all his policies.
He's not the greatest president in the world, but unlike our politicians, he
gets things done!
Let’s be clear, agree wholeheartedly that everyone has the
right to demonstrate against policies and laws that they do not agree with, but
let’s not forget the reason President Trump is here. He’s here in order to mark
the 75th anniversary of the allied D-day landings which signaled the main turning
point of the Second World War; freeing Europe from the tyranny of Hitler’s
Nazi’s and the beginning of the end for Hitler's Germany. D-day is still to
this day the biggest amphibious invasion in military history.
This was a bloody conflict in which over 425,000 Allied and
German troops were killed, wounded or went missing during the Battle of
Normandy.
Something that it seems many of these inflatable waving protesters
appear to be genuinely ignorant of. This is probably a subject for another day,
but basically I put it down the culture within the current British State schools
of cultivating ignorance.
But back to Corbyn and Co’ - I find it quite clear that many
of these politicians, who have not had or played any part of organising these
events; albeit one as utterly childish, undignified and futile as this one, are
always ready to jump on any passing bandwagon, especially when the media circus
descends.
You might have noticed that this political equivalent of the
‘photo bomb’ also happens at local level at many organised community events in
Tameside.
Look through the pages of the local newspaper and I’m sure you’ll
find several community events that have been organised entirely by volunteers,
without any involvement from ‘the council’, and who have worked hard to stage
an event, only to find their local councillor suddenly appears out of the
woodwork, as soon as the cameras come out and position themselves ‘front and
centre’ on the publicity shots!
As for today’s rally, well I suppose its something for
the middle class virtue signalling tree huggers to do before they wander off to
Glastonbury, for a well earned week on the lash, bless their little liberal
leftie socks...
