Communist Britain

Bill Etheridge • 5 April 2021

Bill Etheridge explains why we have fallen into a communist nightmare.

Communism is an evil system responsible for the death and oppression of millions around the world and fundamentally discredited. So why has the UK embraced it so quickly?

I can just imagine readers screaming out after that first paragraph what nonsense that is. The UK is a free country with a Conservative government led by an instinctively libertarian PM they tell us. Well, let’s examine the facts and see what the reality is.

Since Boris Johnson’s government came to power there have been very dramatic changes to the way our country is governed and in the day-to-day life of the people living here. Have they really governed as Conservatives or have we fallen into a Communist nightmare?

Since the Coronavirus act gave the government emergency powers, sweeping changes to our way of life can be pushed through with a minimum of, or, in many cases no parliamentary scrutiny. They rule by dictate with no opposition possible.

Private businesses have been forcibly closed while the public and state sector has grown massively. Indeed, the public sector in the form of the NHS has been elevated to heroic status with months of strongly encouraged clapping at a standard time every Thursday. We have been told that we must change our lives and habits to save the NHS, putting this monolith of state power front and centre to our existence.

Government has spent huge sums of money on its pet projects with large amount of that money being spent questionably and a handful of favoured service providers have been made obscenely rich while the majority of people have seen their career prospects damaged. To add to this the money that has been spent by the government is largely the product of the Bank of England creating it, the very epitome of the magic money tree that Marxists have been mocked about for decades.

People who speak out of turn and express opinions that do not conform with the state approved norm are likely to get a call off the police to check their political views and may be recommended for re-education. A system very strongly linked with the old Soviet Union.

We recently witnessed disgraceful footage of the police breaking up a Good Friday church service. The worshippers were warned to comply or face action. That the worshippers were mainly Polish must have brought back awful memories for some of living behind the Iron Curtain.

Vaccine passports are simply ID cards rebranded. Every totalitarian state from the Soviet Union and China through to Nazi Germany have insisted on their citizens carrying papers to be checked at all times in order to monitor and control their movements. In this modern totalitarian hell this system will be backed up with the wonders of modern technology.

Vaccination is not yet mandatory but a situation is being created where access to work and entertainment will be so limited by the lack of your vaccination passport that it is certainly tantamount to coercion. Your body and what goes into it is no longer your own to make decisions about, you are owned by the state.

The Telegraph recently revealed a story about how the state has used advanced psychological conditioning methods in its communications with the public since the pandemic began. They have been working to directly tap into our emotions to influence our thoughts. Once again, a tactic used in totalitarian states to great effect for many years.

The media is largely compliant with government propaganda and the handful of media outlets or personalities who speak against the state line are denounced and cancelled. Those who wish to speak out on social media find their accounts either hidden through clever algorithms or suspended for breaking community rules. Free speech is no longer allowed, it is considered dangerous misinformation. Another page from the totalitarian play book.

Government ministers dispense their propaganda from glossy purpose made studios often flanked by high-ranking scientists or military officer with huge flags in the background. Whilst there is nothing wrong with our flag. Its use in this context brings very worrying connotations to authoritarian regimes around the world.

Since the last budget the UK now has a greater reliance on high tax and the state sector than ever before. Our nation is closer in its economic and fiscal model to the old Iron Curtain countries than a free-market capitalist state.

In the modern UK we have very strictly limited free speech, our bodies and medical history are not our own private concern, the state in the form of the NHS has replaced God, small private businesses are being decimated and the state is spending vast sums of literally made-up money.

Are you still sure we don’t live in a Communist state?

Jeffrey Titford 24.10.1933 – 09.09.2024 Jeffrey Titford, the former Leader of the UK Independence Party and two term MEP for the East of England, has passed away, after suffering from cancer. His family announced his death on 10 th September, aged 90. Jeffrey was one of the fathers of Brexit, coming to the fore in national and international politics at a time when leaving the EU was considered unthinkable and long before it became official Conservative Party policy. A visionary and a democrat, who did not believe that EU membership provided a viable future for Britain as an independent, self-governing nation, Jeffrey Titford was elected to the European Parliament at the 1999 European Parliamentary Elections, aged 63. He was one of three UK Independence Party MEPs elected, which sent shock waves through the political world. He became Leader of the Party in 2000 and served for three years bringing stability and respectability to its campaigns. During this period, he made seventy speeches a year, travelling all over the country. He also served as interim Leader from September to November 2010, following the resignation of Lord Pearson of Rannoch, while the election of a new Leader was held. During his time in the European Parliament, he made dozens of speeches in Plenary session severely criticising the EU and particularly the level of fraud in its finances. He also extensively lobbied the European Commission and the Government in Westminster on behalf of the British fishing and farming industries. He led several delegations of fishermen to see UK Agriculture Ministers in Westminster and also took a delegation to meet the European Commissioner for Fishing in Brussels. He wrote monthly columns for the East Anglian Daily Times, the Hertfordshire Mercury and Farmers Guide and made many appearances on regional television. He also made a guest appearance on Breakfast with Frost. Jeffrey Titford’s political career began in 1970, when he became a Councillor on the Clacton Urban District Council. He ended his association with the Conservative Party in 1992, in protest over Prime Minister John Major’s signing of the Maastricht Treaty. He joined Sir James Goldsmith’s Referendum Party and, in a sign of things to come, stood in the General Election of 1997 in Harwich when he was the Party’s most successful candidate, securing almost 10 per cent of the vote and, in the process, unseating the sitting Member of Parliament. Following the death of Sir James Goldsmith, Jeffrey was invited to join the UK Independence Party (UKIP), where he established a branch in Clacton and a regional committee, which led to his successful campaign in the European Elections in 1999. He paved the way for Nigel Farage’s subsequent success in Clacton at the 2024 General Election. He was re-elected to the European Parliament in 2004, with a greatly increased share of the vote and UKIP also returned a second MEP. He retired from European Politics in 2009 and was made an Honorary Patron of the Party in 2006 and became President for Life in 2011. Life before politics Following National Service in the RAF, Jeffrey joined the family’s funeral directing business in 1956, where he had a 35 year career, during which he served for 12 years on the National Association of Funeral Director’s (NAFD) National Executive and rose to National President in 1975-76. He was instrumental in developing an official code of practice for the funeral profession, at the request of the Office of Fair Trading. He also successfully campaigned for funeral directors to have the right to sell a package funeral and carried out the first review of the practice manual for funeral directing, which led to the creation of a formal qualification for funeral directors, recognised by the NAFD. He sold the company in February 1989 and retired from the profession. An enthusiastic Rotarian, Jeffrey served as President of the Clacton and later Frinton Rotary Clubs. He also belonged to the Clacton Operatic and Clacton Dramatic Societies, taking lead roles in both companies. However, his most successful hobby was rally driving. He was a leading light in the Clacton Motor Club in the early seventies for whom he was the regional rally champion for six consecutive years. Jeffrey Titford was a devoted family man and is survived by his wife Margaret, one son, three daughters, eight grandchildren and two great grandchildren.
