Great insight as usual. I listened to a podcast today with retired Colonel Roxanne Towner Watkins who has done a deep dive on Operation Gladio, calls the CIA a terrorist organisation and said that most of the "deep state" are members of the Fabian Society and are all working towards the one world government - you're definitely on the right track. These people are psychopaths - just hope enough people try to head them off

Thank you Sharon, and yes, absolutely. I've written about the Fabian Society here https://miriaf.co.uk/did-the-sexual-revolution-happen-by-accident/

Your piece is very credible. Even so it is almost unbelievable that the scenario you present could happen. However, the 'covid' brainwashing suggests it is all too possible. much to my great regret.

I see James D has written 2 pieces basically taking the higher ground, (as he sees it), but he is quite unconvincing and wanting to have it both ways in my view. I still regard him as on the right side but naive and therefore liable to miss things that matter.

Just one thing that I think may be worth pointing out: if AB graduated in 1991 it would have been in to a very depressed jobs market. This was the peak of early 90s recession so I'm not sure even a Cambridge arts degree would have necessarily been the golden ticket to a high flying job. I suspect he fumbled around for a few years in various odd jobs before deciding what to do. A major employer in East Anglia at that time would have been Bernard Matthews Farms. Complete speculation but given his left wing ant- God views I suspect he worked on the research team there making male turkeys lay eggs and Bernard Matthews' prize herd of bulls produce milk.

Thanks Adrian, a useful caveat to bear in mind

It would be fair to say La Burnham, 'rent a nice bloke' has no ideas and is prone to jumping on the wrong bus - again, and again, and again. Then we add the way as Metro Mayor he allowed fellow party members to hide illegal activities. Some of that effluent is now in the House of Commons.

The entire political klass has had it's day.

It is spent, corrupt and emotional.

Reform will not.... reform.

Yet, so far no viable alternative has appeared.

We are surrounded by citizens who make the most able MPs look positively silly, yet getting elected is so hard for unknowns and the 'system' in Westminster et al is very, very controlling.

Well done Miri, we will see how long Starmer lasts for.

There is a logical argument in what you say, but Starmer is doing a fine job of wrecking everything as it is. There was no need for Burnham was there? Unless it’s a timing issue and TPTB don’t think Starmer can last long enough.

I wonder if it has something to do with wanting someone else in the Manchester mayor role too. That position is now vacant as you can't be both an MP and mayor, so there will be another mayoral election. It seems these mayors are being given increased powers and local councils less, and it's about further disenfranchising ordinary people at the local level, where I believe they do have some political sway (not really at the national level). To stand in a mayoral election you need a £5,000 deposit, whereas to stand for the council, it costs nothing. So ordinary people are completely locked out of standing as mayors. You only get your deposit back if you get at least 5% of the vote, so who is going to take that kind of gamble unless they're very wealthy?

I think much of what you say is plausible, and I don’t doubt that the-powers-that-be would like a Reform government. But the fact is that, despite how bad Labour under Starmer has been, Reform is still averaging mid-high 20s in the polls, somewhat below its Autumn 2025 peak of 30%.

And one other striking thing to me this week was that the Tories won Aberdeen South with 49% of the vote, and Reform on 9%:

2026: CON 49%, SNP 29%, REF 9%, LAB 5%

2024: SNP 33%, LAB 25%, CON 24%, REF 7%

It's entirely possible we might see a Reform-Tory coalition, but I also think we can expect a few high-profile, outrage-inducing "immigrant crime" incidents to push people further towards Reform as we approach the election.

You've been sidetracked Miri. Politicians and governments have no real power. They are the Punch and Judy show to entertain the plebs. Tory, Labour, Reform etc they are just a sideshow.

The real power is multinational capital flows controlled by the BIS. What is a politician like Burnham really about:-

The Politician.

What is the game plan for a politician once he has glad handed his constituents, promised them heaven on Earth and been elected.

His first job is to get noticed in the Houses of Parliament.

To propose new legislation or changes to existing laws. Become a player. Get noticed by the PM.

Next up is to get as many offers of free trips, dinners and lunches with powerful lobbies and multinational companies.

His main purpose will be doing favours for these entities and proving he is the right sort and can be trusted not to rock the boat financially or politically.

Everything will be handed to him free of charge and which enables him to collect copious amounts of expenses.

If he shows true signs of lacking any morals or any real ideals he may get invited into the government. He will then be able to do huge political and financial favours for the powerful, lobbies, media and multinationals so that when he leaves office he can look forward to being a multimillionaire.

What about his constituents? Unimportant..

You've missed the point, I think, Doug, I'm not in the slightest saying politicians have "real power". I'm saying for the next leg of the plan, presided over by the "real power" structures behind the scenes, they need a performatively "right-wing" government in place, for the reasons I've explained in the article.

You're seriously claiming that Burnham would be prepared to impose policies that robot Starmer would consider extreme?
