I have little doubt, along with many, that UK politics is in a turmoil, and the question is begged: which way would it turn out if a General Election were to be called today?

Advance UK, Restore Britain and observations of the UK political scene – August 2025
In recent days, I have often had to reflect with increasing consternation on the current dismal political scene and the country that I was born and live in going off in a dangerous direction.

It has been a four months since I wrote my last episode in my Trumpwatch series (see here) and a week since I wrote my third in my “Watching on the wall and what I am presently seeing” series (see here). Both of these blogs are pertinent when it comes to writing this present Trumpwatch episode.

This is the third post in my “Watching on the wall and what I am presently seeing” trilogy. See here for the first and here for the second in the series. Having set the scene, I turn to what I am now seeing. It see a lot and it is hard to know where to begin and what to present. In my previous episode, I identified four important areas for consideration upon which I now elaborate, but also point out that I have already said a lot in my previous blogs (see here).

I little imagined that after posting my “Tommy Robinson is a hero” blog five days ago (see here) things would blow up the way they have, bringing together some seemingly unrelated interests.
Continue readingMy take on UK politics (November 2024)
Those who follow my forays into the blogosphere may well pick up that I am political nerd, unaligned with any political party (and now too old in the tooth to be so), who endeavours to relate my Christian world view and theological insights when considering politics today and actors on the world political stage (who in the main I find depressing). As for how I got to taking the position I adopt today, check out “My political journey and perspectives” blog.
