While honouring those who died, it was in vein. We'd have been better of if the Kaiser had won.

World War one was a war between two Imperial Royal Houses (related) in which there was no ideological/political argument, no "bad guys" and where millions of lives lost on either side due to the folly of imperial powers.

If the UK had not gone to war with the Kaiser's German Empire, then it is probable that the Versailles treaty would not have "stolen" land from Germany, no war reparations, no Rosa Luxemburg attempt to set up a Communist state, and therefore the "German Workers' Party" would not have been set up by Anton Drexler because there would be no grievance against the outcome of the Great War, because it would never have happened.

The Jews would not have been blamed for profiteering from that war, and would have faced no more anti-Semitism in Germany than existed in 1914.

The "stab in the back theory" would not have existed and Hitler would have been quite happy as a painter in the Austro-Hungarian empire, and he would not have joined the DAP (if it even existed), thus not turning it into the the Nazi NSDAP.

Thus no Weimar, no Holocaust, no World War 2, no Eastern Bloc beyond the USSR borders, no Berlin Wall, no missiles in Greenham Common. Also no World War 2 means no loss of UK lives in mainland Europe, no "manpower shortage" in the UK after 1945 (and no opportunity for pro-immigration lobbies/big firms to claim there was), meaning no "Windrush" and probably no collapse of the British Empire, meaning no Idi Amin and no Ugandan Asian crisis.

Less immigration and no loss of nerve means that the ruling class keeps its empire and rejects the EU. So, our present troubles can largely to traced back to 1914 and the decision to go to war with Germany and their Austro-Hungarian Allies...

And now the British Legion has a "Diversity Officer" this only adds to my belief that the wrong side won the Great War.

 Someone on another thread claimed that Russian soldiers were committing atrocities. We are not going to verify, deny or condone, but as with the Yugoslav civil wars, there will be artocities committed on both sides, but unlike then, there is a clear divide between the aims of the Ukranian elite (WEF/EU/Globalism) and the Russians (anti-NWO).

We support neutrality outside NATO but it is tempting to take sides when all you hear is pro-Ukraine propaganda from those who back expanding the EU Eastwards. And you just KNOW that the long term aim is to topple Putin, Medvedev and the rest and install a compliant ruler (Zelensky style) who would negotiate away Russian independence and take them into the EU so the multinationals could take over their "markets".

A lot of people BELIEVED that Brexit would bring forth a new age of self-sufficiency, but with the Tories in charge (with their support for importing rather than home produce) this wasn't going to be allowed to happen.
Without greater self-sufficiency (protectionism, economic nationalism - call it what we will) Brexit cannot work.

 A lot is said about "Populism" in the media.

The liberal elite hate it and use it as a slur, so we adopted the name with pride. It is a badge of honour...

Whether it is homeless veterans, child abuse, the power of the global elite or the betrayal of Brexit we will stand up for those (currently) with no voice.

We are radical. Radical enough to oppose big business, multinationals, the CBI, the TUC, NATO and the UN.

We'll fight for ecology, the green belt - against the developers. We'll defend jobs and services, and oppose privatisation.

We are nationalist but not imperialist

We are neutralist, not pacifist

For democracy, but not liberalism

For localism, not globalism

Conservative, but not for extreme "capitalism"

For the worker, but not Marxist

For ecology, but opposed to the anti-British "Green" Party

Against multiculturalism, but not based upon hatred.

We supported Brexit. But we aren't like the Brexit Party/Reform UK because if one looks at the people who became its MEPs they are very much of the elite, libertarians and Thatcherites, despite the party portraying itself as beyond left-right description, and we predict that it will probably merge with the Tories should the Tories ever more back to their previous pre-Cameron image and policies.

The Populist Party is the best vehicle to continue the "people's revolution" that UKIP began, because we really intend to take down the powers that be, rather than tinker with the system. Become a Populist.

So, is this a "Brexit" problem, or is it one of the UK failing to even TRY to go for greater self-sufficiency since Brexit? The latter, in my opinion, and it is deliberate - to make people feel that this country is incapable of standing on its own.

 In order to get this country back on track the following need to be defeated...

1. Black Lives Matter.

2. Critical Race Theory.

3. Multiculturalism.

4. Defacing and pulling down historic statues.

5. Employers forcing people to describe or wear a now politically ideological pronoun.

6. The Unilateral climate/Green agenda.

7. Cancel Culture (those who ban books, people ,speakers or free speech)

8. Diversity Training.

9. The Trans lobby.

10. Generally illiberal ideas and actions from those who call themselves progressives but are in fact regressive restrictive reactionaries.
