The political landscape changed forever. The clowns can no
longer be ignored. The British people have spoken and the politicians of the
major parties must listen. The day where the politics of GBSD came to life.
UKIP stand’s for UK independence party but also equally
works as GBSD, the Great British Self Delusion. When you read a manifesto from
the UKIP, which if you have, good luck to you, because it’s more than most of
the party, you get a real handle on the extent of the delusion. To be honest
the manifesto is pretty much taken from the editorial highlights of the Daily
Mail. Pick up this journal every day and you’ll get the picture.
The question of why the 2nd May is such a big day
comes back to the message of GBSD. This is a lot more than a protest vote, GBSD
offers much more than that. It is the belief that somewhere on earth there is a
place where we are better than anyone else. That because on our Island we are
clearly better by breed, as long as we keep everyone else away from the shores,
then we will do very well thank you very much and the rest of the world can
drown in its own vial un-English hell.
Why do we believe this shit? It’s not like the established parties
don’t peddle the same hogwash every day, but because we have a fresh nob saying
it who doesn’t have to dress it up in pretty pictures we suddenly believe it.
Why do we suddenly believe one pompous arse can do better than the pompous
arses that are already decorating our TV screens? The only advantage Farage has
is that he readily admits his own ridiculousness. For this 25% of the folk who
could be bothered to step out of the comfort of their own sheds this is a
message worth listening to.
The media essentially created GBSD as the alternative world
of anti-everything. The place where everything you don’t like is taken away and
you’re only left with whatever you like. GBSD is the party of perfection
perception. The pretend world where reality is locked away in a Europe shaped
box and the key thrown away.
GBSD works because reality is hard to manage. Dealing with
the world as it is, recognising that decent people exist in all shades and
languages, and that the bogeyman is far closer to home would break open the
fallacy of GBSD. But we don’t want to
hear that. So GBSD sounds far better. Good luck to Farage for generating the
GBSD debate. Perhaps only when reality breaks open the GBSD mould, we might
start listening to politicians who deal with reality as reality and people as
people.
We can hope that next time the 2nd May big day
out occurs, it’s something to truly write about.
