UK Prime Minister Rishi Sunak has announced that the UK’s next General Election will be held on July 4th.
Speaking in the rain outside No 10 less than an hour ago, Sunak confirmed King Charles will dissolve Parliament on May 30th, with the vote coming five weeks later.
The campaigning has already begun, with Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer launching into a rather dull speech about “the choice” facing the country.
What does this mean?
Potentially nothing. Potentially something.
The voting will be fixed obviously, that goes without saying these days, and it very much feels like they want a change of government to take place, so expect a Labour “victory”.
Having Sunak announce the vote in the pouring rain while “Things Can Only Get Better” plays in the background is the kind of humiliation ritual you expect for the nominated loser:

Elections are always great because they buy time. There’s the distraction of the campaign, there’s the excitement of the vote, and then there’s the “settling in” period for the new government when everyone is so happy things are different they don’t tend to notice they’re actually the same.
Further, elections can be used to push agendas as much as anything else can. Russian or Chinese “interference” will be talked up by both sides, selling the multi-polar lie. Biometric ID will be mooted as a good way of making voting more secure while postal ballots are sold as “safe” and “reliable” (and used to fix the results).
There might be cyberattacks and/or “hacks” or other scary-sounding technology stuff. “Election disinformation” will be a huge issue, one that social media companies are going to have to clampdown on.
Maybe there’ll be threats of violence or an attack on an MP or something equally bogus.
But after all that?
OffG Editor Kit Knightly predicted that we would see changes in government around the world before They launched “the next pandemic”, whatever form that takes.
If Keir Starmer is Prime Minister on the morning of July 5th, how soon afterwards can we expect leaps forward for the Great Reset?
