A crazy headline I know but don’t worry, I haven’t gone mad. Let me explain…

Tim From Fair Play Now, 7th July 2024

So we had our General Election here in the UK on Thursday and the results are in. Predictably Labour won with a large majority in terms of parliamentary seats.

That’s the depressing news…

No doubt new Prime Minister Kier Starmer and his Labour government thinks this gives them a legitimate mandate to rule the country however they wish for the next 5 years.

But I don’t think they have nearly the legitimacy they think they have, here’s why…

First of all voter turnout on Thursday was the lowest in decades.

This means that in terms of actual votes, Labour got 9.7 million compared to 10.3 million in 2019.

Labour had a massive landslide election defeat 5 years ago. This time round they got a huge landslide election victory with half a million less votes!

So how does that work then?

Their vote share figures paint an equally unimpressive picture, 33.8% of all votes cast which is just a small increase over the 32.2% they had in 2019.

But the most shocking figure is the number of votes Labour received compared to the total number of eligible voters here in the UK.

This figure includes both those who voted on Thursday and those like me who didn’t bother and is 46.6 million people (Office of National Statistics December 2023).

Labour’s 9.7 million represents somewhere around 21% of all those entitled to vote.

Or to put it another way, a whopping 79% of the UK did not vote for this new government!

Hardly the mandate to govern that their huge parliamentary majority would suggest.

If 4 out of 5 UK people didn’t ask for a Labour government, can we really say they have a legitimate right to impose their diktats upon us?

That’s not all…

Nigel Farage’s Reform Party got 14% of the vote but only won 4 seats…

Whilst the Liberal Democrats won 12% of the vote and now have 71 seats!

So what does this mean?

First the low turnout means more people than ever have no faith in the system. And that includes me, my wife Lorraine, many more millions in the country and maybe you.

But more importantly, the results have shown in very stark relief to millions of people who perhaps didn’t realise it previously, just how screwed up our electoral system is.

How can a party with 21% overall support from the country get a landslide election victory?

And how come one party can get 14% of the vote and just 4 seats whilst another can get over 70 seats with 2% less of the vote?

These are questions being asked up and down the country right now.

Lots and lots of people have just woken up to the fact that our system is rotten to the core.

Never has it been more obvious that governments have no right to rule us.

I can hear some people’s response to what I’m saying here…

“Ahh but Tim, that’s the system we live in and we just have to accept it and get on with it.”

Really…???

You’re telling me we have to put up with a system that gives a party and its leader unfettered control over the country when they only got 21% of the vote?

You really think that’s acceptable, that it’s ok?

Well I most certainly don’t.

But I think there’s a couple glimmers of hope…

First of all the Labour Party isn’t the cohesive unit it appears to be, there are deep divisions and I think many in that Party won’t be letting Starmer have it all his own way.

Second, the figures I’ve highlighted are becoming common knowledge and many up and down the country will be questioning Labour’s right to rule and the validity of our electoral system.

It’s all plain to see now and far from having free rein, Starmer may well have to tread very carefully.

And if he doesn’t, the calls for electoral reform will grow ever louder and more strident…

More people than ever are now awake to the election scam that only gives two realistic choices of governing party.

These people will be angry and will want to see change…

And that’s why I think this is the best election ever!

Sounds Beautiful

Last weekend saw me at this amazing festival and I had a great time mixing with likeminded people.

Well mostly likeminded people, it seems we had mainstream media reporters in our midst…

Check out the following if you want an inaccurate picture of the event…

Also note the absolute venom and underlying hatred in the text as you read. If they really think we’re just a bunch of conspiracy cranks, why is this guy so vitriolic?

Surely he should be coming from a position of condescending humour rather than the rabid one he’s actually coming from?

I think we can safely say they’re worried, and why would that be?

Because they know we’re right!

The weekend was actually one of fun, love, happiness, great vibes, good music and some very interesting talks that only the truly open minded can appreciate.

I wasn’t there to film them in my own right and was only able to get a few snippets of my own footage but the WTF Is Going On channel does have some official footage, here’s his video of Brian Gerrish of UK Column News fame…

I was actually helping out the other official video people, Defiance Recordings and their footage of the event should be available soon on…

I’ll update you when I learn the availability of their Sounds Beautiful videos.

Tim’s Practical Prepping

Starmer may not have a legitimate mandate to govern but of course he’ll ignore that inconvenient little fact.

It’s likely to be a rough ride over the coming years and as he’s a total WEF puppet, the move towards Agenda 2030 will go into high gear.

So if prepping was important before the election, it’s paramount now.

I’ve heard some news although unverified as yet, that the new government will begin what they’re calling a ‘100 day security sweep’.

They’ll probably spin this as an anti terrorism exercise but some in the Freedom movement think it could be targeting the likes of us too, with things like ‘The Light’ paper, the Hope Sussex home education hub and more in the crosshairs.

So my prepping tip for this week is merely to give you an early heads up on this and maybe to securely back up any online resources you possess in case they disappear.

External hard drives are good for this, you can put all your valuable truth files onto one, then hide it away for future generations to find and hopefully learn from.

The type I personally use, which seems to be reliable and works well is the SanDisk 1TB Extreme Portable SSD external drive. There may be cheaper alternatives out there but of course I haven’t got any experience of them so can’t comment.
