Within days of Boris Johnson and the Conservative Party winning a “stonking” majority, as the British say, in the December 12 U.K. elections, the successful candidates were sworn in as members of parliament (MPs). There is no two-month gap like in the U.S. Congress. Johnson himself had to win reelection in his London-area seat to maintain his eligibility to serve as prime minister.

Like her or not, an energetic, long-form interview with PBS Frontline is another signal that Megyn Kelly wants back on TV. Kelly walked away from NBC News and her failed Today show slot with multi-generational wealth, so is in a position to create her own production company rather than try to get a gig with an existing network.
The U.K. Conservative Party under Prime Minister Boris Johnson won a landslide in yesterday’s general election with 365 seats (with one constituency still undecided). The opposition, far-left Labor (or Labour Party) won 203. According to the Guido Fawkes blog, the Conservatives (a.k.a Tories) seat count is their highest since [Margaret] Thatcher, while Labour’s is their lowest since 1953.”
Speculation is mounting that Hillary Clinton may run for president again in a potential rematch against Donald Trump. That might explain why she’s increased public appearances and media interviews in connection with a new, curiously timed book that probably no one will read. She recently sat down for a cringe-worthy, fawning interview conducted by Howard Stern on his SiriusXM radio show, during which she had yet another coughing fit (see clip below).
If polls are to be believed, U.K. Prime Minister Boris Johnson and his Conservative Party will win a parliamentary majority of some kind in the U.K. general election on Thursday, December 12. Johnson has promised to “get Brexit done,” but that may just be a euphemism for Brexit in Name Only 2.0, which would still keep the U.K. subject to heavy handed, anti-Democratic European Union rules and regulations and its bloated bureaucracy.
Brexit Party leader Nigel Farage‘s cell phone must have been blowing up over the weekend given that “Conservative, Inc.” plus Conservative Party officials freaking out for weeks over the upcoming December 12 general election. With nomination papers due into the government on November 14, Farage planned to field 600 candidates that could be spoilers.
Brexit Party leader Nigel Farage’s plan to field about 600 candidates in the December 12 U.K. general election is not without controversy. Farage, who will campaign tirelessly for his colleagues throughout the country, stands accused of being a spoiler.
With the U.K. general election scheduled for December 12, many wondered if Brexit Party leader Nigel Farage himself would stand as one of the insurgent group’s 600 or so parliamentary candidates for a seat in the House of Commons.
Today, Halloween, was supposed to be Brexit Day in the U.K., when the country would officially leave the European Union and regain its independence and sovereignty. Prime Minister Boris Johnson promised the nation that Brexit would occur on October 31 “do or die.” The avuncular Johnson also claimed that he’d rather “die in a ditch” than agree to another Brexit deadline extension.
President Donald Trump has a tendency to throw rhetorical fuel on the fire. When his riffing at a rally, or sending out a tweet storm, he often creates needless feuds. This kind of rhetoric can obscure a substantive message about his administration’s America First accomplishments. In this way, he tends to forget that when your opponents are digging a hole, let them keep digging.
