The Bavarian state parliament elections were today and the so-called conservatives of Chancellor Angela Merkel (They are conservatives like I am a communist! It’s really Tweedledee and the left is Tweedledum!) did win the election but I’d guess that this little tidbit might have caused some angst (That is German for fear actually! Pun intended!) […]

A judge has ruled that Palmdale discriminated against Latino voters in local elections! Here’s the story! Was it Palmdale South Carolina? Surely Palmdale Texas! Maybe Palmdale Louisiana! How about Palmdale Alabama! NO it was Palmdale CALIFORNIA! In a new critique of how minorities are treated in the Antelope Valley, a judge has ruled that Palmdale […]

This report at ConservativeHome about local by-elections from last Thursday was encouraging for UKIP: In Billericay East Ward, the Tories lost 10.5% to UKIP, although the Conservative councillor was elected. In Newtown Ward, UKIP gained 22.7% but still ran behind Labour and the Tory hopeful. In Southway Ward, and in Primrose Ward, UKIP gained against […]

The news from the UK is very encouraging in local elections and the one by-election in a Labour stronghold. Here’s the live blog from the Guardian (UK) and here’s another site that is anti-extreme right wing parties. From the Guardian website: The first result has been declared in Hykenham Forum (North Kesteven), Lincolnshire, reports the […]

This article in the UK Guardian shows that there is a genuine surge of interest in Britain’s sovereignty and liberty party: UKIP. Labour has 35% and the Tories only six points back at 29% but the story for me is the 17% tally for UKIP. More than double the LibDems! Just in time for local […]

I just wrote about how the OSCE sent election observers and alleged that the USA had a duty to accept them in! But every time I find globalist meddling, there’s a UN treaty! It’s like a scorpion under a rock! So I decided to look at the last report or two from OSCE about our […]

UKIP had a great day in Thursday’s local elections. The Guardian’s headline is: “Local Elections: UKIP and Respect gain ground” The Eurosceptic party averaged about 14 per cent of the vote where its candidates were standing, mainly at the expense of the Conservatives. *** Conservative MP Gary Streeter blamed defections to Ukip for his party […]

The Sun newspaper/YouGov poll has startling results: Labour party leads poll with UKIP now third These local elections for May 5 are probably the most critical elections in UKIP’s history. If UKIP expects to get Tory MPs to defect in any kind of meaningful numbers, they need to do well in the local elections. This […]

In some much needed good news for the UK Independence Party, after the disastrous by-election in Bradford West on Thursday, several local officials have indicated that they will stand for election or hold office as UKIP members! Alan Graves, a councillor (like city council or county board of supervisors) in Alvaston in Derbyshire, who was […]

Some encouraging news on UKIP! As my readers know (I see you waving in London!), I was concerned about the UKIP turnout in the May 5 local elections. Turned out the party exceeded expectations – elected its first Mayor in Ramsey (this means they won control of the local counsel!) Lisa Duffy is a […]

This BBC report told me what I feared: UKIP did not do well in the local elections. The UK Independence Party (UKIP) has rejected calls by one of its MEPs for leader Nigel Farage to stand down after it failed to make a breakthrough in English council elections. The party made no net gains despite […]

Sandy will be tired tonight. No way around it. Four awesome events: British local elections – local governments and regional parliaments in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. Here‘s a live blog on this! Will UKIP break through? I think UKIP will win a few seats but will end up gaining votes at the expense of […]

In more news of the “UKIP rising” variety, a local official in Chester (We have a fine community named Chester in Virginia and another one named Chesterfield!) switched from the Conservative to the UKIP party and will run in a local election. He said in his blog entry: “I’m not joining UKIP just because I’m […]

An MP I admire very much, Bill Cash, advocates a UK Human Rights Act to replace the “authority” of the ECHR over the United Kingdom. Here’s his article found at ConservativeHome and at Cash’s own website. MP Cash exposes how the Tory government has turned its back on its promises in the 2010 General Election: […]

It could be a great political thriller: Suburban county in a deep blue state suddenly elects several commissioners who are committed to cutting spending, taxes, unnecessary regulations. They plan to free business to do what it does best – grow and hire people. They also seek free market answers to government problems. A Tea Party […]
