BJ the British Empire is DEAD......


Boris Johnson, seems to think.
That all can be sorted with RED  ink.
Silly man, doesn't know.
No one understands.
Cursive anymore.
So he has a cabinet reshuffle.
Putting in charge.
Ones that are worse.
That the ones he fired.
Dominic may have his ear.
BUT, deafness will soon appear.

Boris Johnson isn't the only one in the UK. That still thinks the great British Empire still exists.

Plenty of others do too.

Probably mainly older people though.

But the Great British Empire was well and truly over by at least 1979.

By 1979, the so called British Empire only consisted of a few territories around the world.
Compared to the giantic amount of territories that used to be governed by the British globally.

It was definately a superpower.

But it was officially completely over, when the British handed back Hong Hong to China. And left. In 1997.

So why do people continue to believe in the British Empire as it was... prior to 1951?

Well. It's living on past glories.
Past powers.
And let's not forget. The British had a ridiculous amount of power.

So alot of people want that world domination back.
And Boris Johnson seems to be thinking like this.

What also led to the destruction or disappearance of the Great British Empire?

Well. The Crimean War and the Indian Rebellion of the 1850's

Long colonial uprisings. Like the one in New Zealand in 1860. The Transvaal War in South Africa.
.... the Boer War.

Also uprisings in Jamaica. The Zulu War.
Plus the British were havin alot of argy bargy closer to home.

Irish home rule conflict. And the fact that the UK was in no way ready militarily, for the rising agression of Germany. In the 1930's.

The UK did make efforts to reduce their isolationist position long before this though.
Perhaps they were well aware the end of the Empire was coming.

Is Boris Johnson gonna try and take this isolationist approach?
While trying to turn the UK into a superpower again.

One thing I'm sure of though.
I think Boris Johnson's dream of the UK starting an Empire again is kinda ridiculous. Unless he's planning on invading sovereign countries. And building a new Empire, country by country.

Somehow I doubt this.

There's nothing wrong with having pride in your country.

But the UK do not need the illusion of being the old Empire. Or a new one.
To have respect in the world.
Or an element of power.

I think Boris Johnson needs to stop reading books on Winston Churchill. It's keeping him in the past.
When he's actually a Prime Minister in the 21st Century.

The fact that Boris Johnson has written books extensively on Churchill. Demonstrates to me he's fixated. On creating the period Churchill lived in.
Again.

But if you look closely. The empire was unravelling even in Winton Churchill's time, the 1930's and 1940's.

With the UK as a big partner leaving the EU bloc.

It makes the strength of the union far weaker.

It will only take another 2 big member countries to leave the EU. And that will be it.

It will crumble.

A quite unknown casualty of that. Will probably be Romania. And any other former Communist European country.

I mean if the whole EU bloc ends.

Because there have been worrying signs and clear evidence. That there are many in power in Romania for example...who want to get rid of the hard won democracy ...in Romania.

And return it to Communism.

Sounds crazy.

Not really.

Because alot of those old communist leaders are still alive. In Romania. And in other former Communist countries...like Croatia, Serbia (former Yugoslavia) and Hungary.

And they are wating for their chance to seize power.

I guess many will think, well Romania had a people's revolution. That was brutal, effective and decisive in 1989.

To end Communism.
And finally get freedom. So how could this unthinkable happen?

Well Romania's road to complete democracy since 1989 has been difficult and thwarted.
And not exactly a success.

They were able to join the EU in 2007.
But they failed to get approval for the passport free Schengen travel there.

This slowed their adoption of the Euro Common Currency. And was bad for their economy.

Also. There has been never ending serious corruption in Romania too. And continuous changes to leadership.

If Romania, or any other former Communist European countries return to being Communist. It will be a massive blow for Europe.

For a start. You will no longer be allowed to go to these countries. Nor will the people who live there be able to leave. Ever.
The Iron Curtain goes up.

That's Communism.

Especially in Romania.

All the work that was done to bring down the Berlin Wall in the late 80's. And topple the highly abusive communist regimes in Europe... will be lost.

And it isn't just old Romanian politicians who want to return to Communism.

Oddly. Alot of Romanians want it too.
It's the old 'grass is greener on the other side' delusion.

Because the economy is bad now in Romania. And they have developed a 'things were better under Nicolae Ceausescu and Communism' delusion.

And what a delusion that is.

Regardless of the fact that the Romanian people fought long and hard to have him removed and executed in 1989.

As many Communist regimes fell around them in Europe in late 1989. They were estatic with their new found freedom.

But. unfortunately now, today, Romanian disenchantment with capitalism. Could take them back to the future.

Back into the decayed ideology and total oppression of Communism.

And the EU bloc crumbling. Makes them highly susceptible to it.

And the old Communists know that.

They will be overjoyed if the EU bloc ends.

Alexandra Grant. More lies? Did she forget she married another person 10 years ago... & is still married... UPDATE...

  I had a dream about Alexandra Grant. (Which in it's self is disturbing)   This is what I saw in the dream.   I SAW...   Alexandra Grant   is married. Not to Keanu Reeves.  T he marriage took place around 9/10 years ago on the  East coast of America.  (Not New York City)   I Saw She was in a  very close relationship with this  "Person" I See she was paid to do this... The person she is married to is of dubious character...   This person has been  "Away"  for quite a while...    (If you know what I mean)   This person is threatening to return..   She will...   To expose the marriage & other criminal behaviors  they both had a part in.    As I write this.   Keanu Reeves & his team.  Do not know of this.    Alexandra,  knows is still legally married. Has her head in the sand. Hoping it will go away...   STAY TUNED...    MORE TO COME...  

Morning everyone...
