France Plunged Into Chaos As Macrons Third Government Inside A Year Collapses Amid Multple Crises

 The 'gilet jaune' protests brought French cities to a standstill in 2021

France's National Assembly voted to collapse the government on Monday, ousting François Bayrou as prime minister by 364 votes to 194 in a confidence motion. President Emmanuel Macron has ignored calls for him to resign and  will not dissolve the assembly and call an election to solve  France’s political crisis.. Instead it was announced he will appoint a new prime minister “in the next few days.”

Mr Bayrou is expected to hand in his resignation on Tuesday, leaving Mr Macron scrambling to find the seventh prime minister of his presidency.The President's office said he “takes note” of the result and would appoint Mr Bayrou’s replacement “in the next few days”.

The move suggests the French president will continue to ignore growing calls to dissolve parliament, resign, and call a general election to vote in a new government. Instead he will try to appoint a consensus figure to pass a budget in the deeply divided national assembly according to most French political commentators.

However, there are serious doubts over whether any nominee will be able to pull together a working coalition.

The Socialists, who only command 66 seats in parliament, have offered to run the government at the risk of losing the support of the conservative Republicans.

Marine Le Pen, whose National Rally is the biggest single opposition party, urged Mr Macron to call fresh snap legislative elections to break the political deadlock on Monday evening, calling them “not an option but an obligation”.

But what has brought France to this dire state of affairs? The Cost of Living? Immigration? The Economy? Unemployment?

France has been facing economic meltdown for some time unless and the main reason Macron appointed Bayrou was due to belief that he could pull together enough support to pass an austerity budget and bring under control Eurozone’s worst deficit, set for 5.4 per cent of GDP this year, by Oct 15. This parlous state is a humiliating blow for a man once dubbed “the Mozart of finance”.

Meanwhile, revolt is brewing via a viral movement called “Bloquons Tout” (“Let’s Block Everything”) that aims to shut down France on Sept 10. A leaked Paris police note has warned of potential “violent actions, sabotage and operations against strategic sectors of the economy” in what instigators hope could kick off a fresh insurrection in the style of the “gilet jaune” (“yellow vest”) protests – this time against planned budget cuts.

Protesters have been discussing blocking train stations, picketing oil refineries and walking out of supermarkets without paying. “It’s a horizontal movement with no leader – everyone does what they want,” said an intelligence source, describing the anger as widespread with “meetings everywhere – in villages as well as big cities”.

“The images will not be pretty,” said one police official.

 Britain is close to a similar state at the moment with civil unrest over immigration, concerns about the effect on the economy of a burgeoning welfare bill, weak, vacillating leadership, ideologically dogmatic policies like net zero damaging the economy, and now a political scandal which threatens to plunge the governing party into disarray. Germany has a lame duck government with small, extremist parties threatening to collapse the ruling coalition in order to push through policies that are deeply unpopular. Netherlands, Belgium and Spain are ruled by dysfunctional coalitions brokered by the EU in order to keep Eurosceptic, nationalist, right-of-centre parties out of power in definance of the popular vote.  

Every western country is becoming ungovernable because the political class everywhere has been feigning blindness when the political shift to the right is mentioned and  nationalism in domestic politics, denying the threat of Islamism, and buying their populations off with totally unsustainable benefits. This is a vicious circle because the benefits make people not want to work and therefore more Islamists are required to enter each country.  

Ironically, throughout Europe everybody, except for the people who sit in government, knows the status quo is unsustainable and that we have to change but no one appears to be willing to accept change when it affects them. As a  civilisation, we are deluded and selfish. Put very simply, we need growth to pay for our borrowing; to achieve growth we have to ease the burden of taxation; to be able to lessen the tax burden we have to pare back state spending in all areas except defence and education. We therefore have to cut the welfare budget and and reform pensions. There is no other real and effective policy.

Tinkering With The Welfare System Will Do Nothing To Avert The Impending Economic Crisis

 What can be said about Chancellor Reeves latest attempt to destroy what is left of the UK economy, the 'Spring Statement' which was released earlier this week only to be met with scorn and ridicule (and that was just from her colleagues in the Labour Party.)

 Keir Starmer and Rachel Reeves
Starmer and Reeves, political partnership or comedy double act? Picture credit: Hollie Adams AFP


If they are honest with themselves, Prime Minister Keir Starmer and Chancellor Rachel Reeves will be staring in alarm at what their stewardship has done so far to the British economy. We were heading into a financial crisis before the Labour government took office last July for many reasons, prominent among which were decades of lax immigration controls, the legacy of lockdowns and the far-too-generous benefits system.

Ms. Reeves did at least acknowledge the latter by announcing a crackdown on disability benefit payments to people deemed capable of work but, predictably, this went down like the proverbial Lead Zeppelin with the left wing of her party. However, even if it had been eagery embraced by all, the resulting saving would have been patltry compared to the rate at which government spending is exceeding income. This wold be frightening enough in itself but with Starmer's economic illiteracy and Reeves well documented problems with her CV the situation moves rom farcical to absurdity.

The Government has achieved one of its aims though, which is to balance one very large predicted number, ie, that of taxation, with another, spending, in 2030. This kind of economic planning is all guesswork of course. Five years ago nobody could have known how many billions of pounds would be poured into supporting Ukraine in its war with Russia, or that the pursuit of Net Zero would have gone from unrealistic to downright reckless. And nobody would have believed the measures to contain the spread of COVID 19 which were about to be introduced would remain in place like a tourniquet around the throat of industry and commerce for the next three years.

And just as five years ago nobody would have believed any warning that such things should be factored into financial planning now no one really believes the welfare savings, the growth figures, or the thouasands of 'green jobs' to be created by Net Zero' will actually materialise to replace those lost to doctrinaire policies. But the numbers add up on paper and that has always been good enough for politicians. One side of the House dutifully cheers, the other mocks and jeers. And the world goes on the same.

The whole charade is meaningless, not because things are going well, but because they are going very badly indeed.

One thing that has struck me with recent developments is the interviews that have been broadcast with regard to welfare cuts. Many people, it turns out, now see the prime function of the Government as being to provide them with the money they need to maintain a good standard of living. 

Historically we do not have to look back very far into history to find a time times when the idea that the Government should provide for all its citizens needs and expect nothing in return would simply not have been countenanced. Even the socialist dictum of Karl Marx: "From each according to his ability to each according to his needs," puts the 'from' bit first. The fact that we have lost sight of that work ethic not only has a huge impact on our economy, it seems to have had a huge social and psychological impact on our national community as well.

Were we able to sweep aside the follies of the past and rebuild the apparatus of state from scratch would anyone design a welfare system like the ecurrent UK benefits agency? Listening to some of the recent comments and interviews it appears that as a rule of thumb Governments should not seek to fund more that 50% of its citizens needs.

 Immediately of course people will demand to know where the other 50% is coming from? In that not-too-distant past we are looking back at, people had a work ethic, it was understood that the state did not owe anybody a living, apart from those unfortunate individuals with serious disability or chronic illness everybody could contribute something to society and there was such a thing as personal responsibility and our responsibility to others. Accepting that responsibility made people more inventive, resourceful, self reliant and resilient and able to form a more positive view of the future than the rather  dismal. disaffected ones broadcast in recent days.

So this week’s tinkering to meet the fiscal rules in five years’ time means nothing. Almost certainly the crisis will be on us before electoral defeat can save Starmer, Reeves & Co. from the terrifying prospect of having to accept responsibility for their errors.  As Dr Dan Mitchell, prominent US economist and commentator put it this week: “I’ve been assuming that Italy will be the next country to suffer an economic and fiscal crisis, but the UK is heading in the wrong direction so rapidly that I may need to change my prediction.”

So much is obvious to any intelligent observer not blinded by the stream of meaningless drivel emitted by government figures in the past few days.

After all, Reeves is not entirely wrong in blaming her predecessors bu that while blaming them she hasn’t done anything different or brought any new ideas to the role. The last Conservative government pushed up spending and raised taxes. It was just as committed to net zero. It had its own Rental Reform Bill. Indeed at least Reeves is doing some planning reform to boost the construction industry; the Tories dumped Robert Jenrick’s planning reforms after one bad by-election.

The truth is there hasn’t been any real attempt to get to address Britain’s structural problems for 30 years or so. Tony Blair and Gordon Brown benefited from the reforms of Lady Thatcher and John Major. They used this legacy to make things worse: to push up taxes and spending, to begin the energy policy madness, to start importing large numbers of people, and to launch the process of collectivisation and over-regulation.

None of this was reversed under the Tories and Lib Dems. Most of the problems got worse. That’s why productivity growth is now not far off zero and why GDP per head is actually falling.

Someone now needs to offer a proper, serious alternative.

 


Britain's Self Destructive Race To Net Zero Is Driven By Corruption In High Places
Late last year it was revealed that almost half the Conservative Party MPs in the U.K. Parliament belong to a group promoting extreme Net Zero ideas that is funded by a small group of green billionaires led by the ECF and CAF, along with Rockefeller Philanthropy Advisers and Oak Foundation.

Many of the problems afflicting Britain and its neighbours appear to be related to what has been called The Theraputic Society, Nanny State and paternalistic liberalism.

Secret Justice Threatens The Right To A Fair Trial

These stupid laws insult the public and threaten free speech

When the law forbids us to insult or offend somebody, to insult or offend a religion, race, skin colour or sexual preference, free speech and other important democratic rights are under threat. When the law then goes on to say that anyone accused of these offences has no right to defend themselves and the word of the accuser is sufficient evidence on which to obtain a conviction then we have abandoned justice and are ruled by fascists.

Two-thirds of unemployment benefit recipients in Germany are immigrants as cost to taxpayer soars

 

Almost two-thirds of people receiving unemployment benefits  in Germany are immigrants or a from "a migration background", new figures from Germany's Federal Employment Agency have revealed.

The statistics published by the agency and cited by the Die Welt broadsheet showed that 63.1 percent of those in receipt of the so-called citizen’s income, or “Bürgergeld,” are of migrant origin, and “most do not have a German passport.”

The newspaper reported that numbers of people in work are increasing year-on-year, because the Federal Republic has for decades encouraged mass immigration of low-skilled people, the number of migrants who are unemployed and receiving social benefits is increasing at a fasterr rate.”

The figures define “migration background” as anyone who themselves or whose parents were born without German citizenship, i.e., first- and second-generation migrants.

Of the 3.93 million people eligible for the taxpayer-funded benefit as of December 2023,  2.48 million are classed as being of a migration background, with 1.83 million claimants not having German citizenship.

The percentage varies considerably among the federal states. In Hesse, Baden-Württemberg, and Hamburg, more than 7 in 10 of unemployed are migrants at 76.4 percent, 74.1 percent, and 72.8 percent, respectively.

There exists a strong correlation between the rise in the migrant population and the percentage of welfare benefits going to migrants, giving weight to the argument that mass immigration of low-skilled workers is not a net benefit to Europe’s largest economy.

Swedish MP Makes Complete U-Turn On Open Borders, Says Mass Immigration Has Changed The Country

 


Sweden Is Now The Rape Capital Of Europe Due To Mass Immigrationm (Picture: Canadaupdates

Louise Meijer, a lawmaker with the now-governing Moderate Party,  who advocated for open borders and free immigration during the 2015 refugee crisis said she has completely changed her mind on the issue and now supports mass deportations of people who entered Sweden illegally.The former  supporter of the ‘Refugees Welcome’ movement, now wants to pull up the drawbridge completely and only admit limited numbers of carefully vetted migrants into Sweden.

“I have changed my mind on the matter,” she told Expressen when asked to explain recent speeches against immigration, adding that she now supports “an even stricter migration policy than the one I opposed in 2015.”

“The change that Sweden has undergone and is undergoing is fundamentally changing the country,” said Meijer, noting that “mass immigration has been followed by several major problems.”

Specifically, she pointed to the facts that “serious, organized crime is committed to a large extent by people with foreign backgrounds,” that new arrivals are “not self-sufficient” but depend on the state's generous welfare system, that no - go areas controlled and policed by ethnically segregated crime gangs exist in all Swedish cities and large towns and that the “a culture of honor, separatism, and Islamism is limiting and dangerous.”

Meijer asserted that admitting large numbers of migrants has been a total failure for Sweden and “for integration to work and society, people who both want to move here and who already live here need to learn the language, adapt to Swedish society and our values.”

“You need to work, speak Swedish, and do your duty before you demand your rights. Those who do not want to adapt and integrate should not stay in Sweden either. Deportation or repatriation should then be a real option,” said Meijer.

After being one of the safest, most tolerant and most liberal nations in Europe, Sweden now records the second most bombings out of any country not at war besides Mexico, while drug crime, sex trafficking andextortion rackets are rife. Migrant gang violence is so chronic, (though hardly reported by mainstream media,) last year the Swedish Prime Minister met with the head of the military to  a plan to deal put together a plan to deal with it. Any attempt to pressure migrants to integrate will of course be strongly opposed by Sweden's loony left who believe people whose families have lived in Sweden for thousands of years should be happy to step aside and hand over the country to Africans and incomers from the middle east.

The migrants have also brought other problems with them from places where women have lower status than cattle to a country that was always at the forefront of sexual equality. A 2018 report also found that 99 out of 112 convicted rapists in Sweden had a foreign background. There have also been numerous reports of women being gang raped by immigrant gangs, including one case of a woman being dragged out of her wheelchair, dragged into bushes and raped by several men while police and civilians stood back, unwilling to intervene because they feared being accused of racism.

When veteran Swedish police investigator Peter Springare was asked about the demographics of those responsible for violent crimes, he didn’t mince his words.

“Here we go; this is what I’ve handled from Monday-Friday this week: rape, rape, robbery, aggravated assault, rape-assault and rape, extortion, blackmail, assault, violence against police, threats to police, drug crime, drugs, crime, felony, attempted murder, rape again, extortion again and ill-treatment,” he wrote.

“Suspected perpetrators; Ali Mohammed, Mahmod, Mohammed, Mohammed Ali, again, again, again. Christopher… what, is it true? Yes, a Swedish name snuck in on the edges of a drug crime. Mohammed, Mahmod Ali, again and again,” he added.

For yet another nation where a leftist government encouraged mass immigration, diversity proving to be “our greatest strength” yet again.

The Theraputic Society Is Destroying Civilisation

Many of the problems afflicting Britain and its European neighbours and transatlantic cousins appear to be related to what in the recent past has been called The Theraputic Society, Nanny State and paternalistic liberalism. As government (and with it the amount of tax we pay) grows, corporate industry and private business is increasingly coming to resemble the public sector, ruled less by economic rationality than by an intrusive bureaucracy functioning increasingly like an HR department.

Concepts like profit and dividends and values like commitment to quality have become alien in thisd environment; replaced by concerns about Diversity,Inclusivity and Equality; Environmental Social Governance goals; staff welfare and mental health issues and the instruction to “just be kind”.

What is driving this explosion of worklessness. Many of those now receiving incapacity benefits rather than working for wages have been diagnosed as disabled because of mental health conditions, particularly depression. The number of Personal Independence Payment claims based on psychiatric illness rising over 50pc since 2019. Some 1.3 million people now fall into this category and as well as generous benefits are gettin medication and talking therapy when the most effective cure for their condition is a good kick up the arse.

As well as the rise in numbers of people permanently disabled by mental health issues, psychiatric illnesses account for over a quarter of all sick leave in the large organisations.

In the HR state, attempts to shift people into employment are frowned upon as unkind, even though work can be beneficial for mental health problems in the same way as a good kick up the arse can.. And so the taxpayer continues to fork out for workers who don’t work, public services decline, and the tax burden grows.

Once you start to see the growing power of Just Be Kind culture, it soon becomes obvious that it has permeated all levels of society. It’s in the way we speak to each other, with normal, everyday interactions increasingly governed by rules on what ideas and opinions may 'trigger' a sensitive listener, or what level of rudeness incurs civil or criminal liability.

Rather than taking offence – with the implication that we can choose how to respond, including shrugging ill-judged words off – the idea that we are actually harmed by insensitive language has been firmly planted in the minds of many people. And the HR state intervenes to protect us, even to the extent of telling us what we are offended by. Judges are handing out jail sentences to people who are rude online of simply fail to use a person's preferred pronouns, juries and tribunrals are handing massive payouts to those offended by their colleagues at work.

It doesn’t matter if that offence is given with good reason. Demanding adequate performance from highly paid civil servants and employees is out. And getting rid of employees isn’t always an option either: in one notable case, a judge found in favour of an employee complaining about being let go after taking 808 sick days and picking up £96,000 in sick pay).

It is a common misconception that more laws mean greater protection. Legislation has become increasingly complicated and ambiguous for employers. There comes a point when the added benefit is questionable and must be outweighed by the burden which it places on business. This is especially the case for small and medium sized employers who may not have a specialist, in-house HR function staffed by people whose job is to be aware of all the issues surrounding workplace interactions.

In the past twenty years there has been a continuous flow of new employment and human rights laws passed ranging from the new Agency Workers Regulations, the Age Discrimination Regulations to European case law on rights to accrue holidays even while on long term sick leave. New employment legislation is estimated to have added £70 billion per annum to costs for businesses over the last decade.’

The costs of employing people and doing business is bankrupting businesses, and yet the government has confirmed at least 10 new (HR) laws for 2024’

We, along with several other major economic powers have elections to appoint a new governments later this year though because these people are products of the university system and are advised by those who have spend  their entire lives detached from reality in the cocoon of the scholarly environment, will the new lot do any better that the ones who created the current mess. We the voters know what to do of course:

It is necessary to curtail major areas of government spending: welfare, health, education and defence. Emergency cuts, or at least freezes, in welfare benefits and public sector pay are imperative, the kind of measures seen recently in struggling central European countries. We must abandon virtue signalling policies like 'net zero', open borders immigration and the funding of foreign wars. 

 If welfare benefits are not pegged to wage increases then there will be no incentive to work and more people, though able bodied, will claim disability status due to mental health issues.

Longer-term reforms that reduce the scope of government are needed. A new government could start by tackling public sector pensions (a liability of over £1 trillion), move on to welfare reform and then health and education,  cutting waste, terminating the jobs of diversity officers, sensitivity advisers and racial awareness tutors, and getting rid of the costly bureaucrats who compile statistics to justify these expenditures.

And let’s not forget regulation. Removing red tape – for example, the new gender pay audits – would reduce the government payroll while lowering costs for businesses. But no-one running for high office will have the testicular fortitude to do any of this, so they in turn will be removed…..and so will the next ones and so on until someone gets the message.
