The Fourth Point



Tony Blair wades in to offer advice to Keir Starmer with 3-point takedown of Reform

Sir Tony Blair urged Sir Keir Starmer to come up with a plan for controlling immigration in a bid to tackle the threat posed by Nigel Farage.

The former Labour leader offered the Prime Minister a three-point solution to fight Reform UK.

He said Sir Keir's focus should be on illegal migration with the introduction of digital identity cards, a robust approach to law and order, and avoiding "vulnerability on wokeism".


It's no surprise that Tony's plan avoids the obvious fourth point. Net Zero is set to continue chewing its way through the last sorry residues of government technical competence.

Maybe we'll eventually need those digital identity cards to turn on the central heating.

The decline seems set to continue.

So the 'threat' of Reform is more important to the Labour Elite than illegal immigration. Someone has their priorities back to front. And they wonder why 'populism' is becoming more, er, popular.

How do we know that the "I'm just this guy." Tone really is the " Things can only get better. " Tony that we knew and loved? AI is wonderful, and I am sure that William Gates can clone anyone. Plus he (Oor Bill) has lots of "evidence" on Tone's peccodillos.
Anyway, what happened to the toothsome Cherie?

Interesting how Blair concentrates on combating illegal migration. Providing he talks tough, and arrests a few people-smugglers, Starmer can keep the front door open for as many legal migrants as he likes. And what is going to happen to the current stockpile of illegal migrants? How do you process thousands of people who might be jihadis, rapists, murderers, members of criminal gangs, or just economically useless?

And amazing, isn't it, how many problems ID cards seem to fix. I'm sure they'll also bring down inflation and re-grow polar ice-caps.

It's funny that these muppets think they can stop people coming from France in small boats, by making us prove we are who we say we are

No, it's not funny...

DJ - Blair probably sees Reform as a failed narrative issue, an indicator of holes in the mainstream narrative rather than serious government failures. He'll never acknowledge the difference and it seems to be a clue that Starmer won't either.

Doonhamer - apparently they couldn't get the toothsome Cherie clone to work, the AI system kept putting in what were obviously too many teeth. The incisors were too big as well. The AI just couldn't get it right, even Bill Gates couldn't sort it.

Sam - "Providing he talks tough, and arrests a few people-smugglers, Starmer can keep the front door open"

Yes, it's a clue that we are to see a solidly Blairite approach, narrative first and reality nowhere.

Bucko - yes, it doesn't make sense, the boats are the clue here. It's Blair again, linking things that aren't linked purely for narrative effect rather than anything real.
