The votes are in and counted and what changes can we look
forward to, probably none. With Sinn Fein taking the most seats here, the
Unionists will now refuse to go back into Stormont. Of course Sinn Fein are now
all about getting back to work but were happy to sit at home for three+ years
after they walked out over the RHI scandal. Do they really think Unionism will
accommodate them now? The thing is no one even noticed when they were all off
and things just rattled along as always. Party politics has really outlived its
usefulness, we don’t just need to get rid of the politicians, we need a whole
new system.
The press are making a big deal out of Sinn Fein winning
most seats but the reality is they haven’t won any more than they did last time
around, the only difference this time is that the TUV took a couple off the
DUP. The SDLP lost out most and I’m happy to report that one of their losers
was Nichola Mallon. Truly well-deserved after her actions of the last two years and
there will be many who will not be sorry to see her go. She was the most
outspoken supporter of lockdowns, vax passes and compulsory vaccines, a real
fascist at heart. I’m only disappointed Colm Eastwood isn’t joining her because
he was as bad.
There were over 11,000 spoiled votes and with a turnout of
63% there were still a lot of people, more than a third actually, who didn’t
vote. I will be joining their ranks next time around if the choices remain the
same.
I was always a strong advocate of voting but have lost all
faith in the system, it doesn’t matter who you vote for, the government, or
rather ‘shadow government’, always gets in. It has also been made compulsory to
register to vote, this is probably so that your data can be sold on and they
can keep tabs on you, so I won’t even bother to register again either.
The malaise is worse in England with only 35% turnout and as
low as 13% in some areas. I don’t know how anyone can claim to speak for us on
those figures. Boris Johnston could turn those Conservative losses into a big
win if he finally got the UK out of the EU, dumped the protocol, stopped bowing
to the woke crowd, grew up and actually showed something like leadership.
I was never a fan of Margaret Thatcher but I have to say,
she wouldn’t have put up with an ounce of this garbage for five minutes, and I
am sick of government policy being decided by media hysteria. Of course, the next
outbreak has started already, abortion this time and, off they go, hysterically
ramping up the screaming woke mob again. Gawd, give me strength!
