"How on Earth, therefore, can the Commission claim to be impartial in its crucial role adjudicating elections and referendums?" Asks the Telegraph. As the election watch-dog the Electoral Commission requires its members to be impartial 'at all times'. But the anti-Brexit comments from Sir John Holmes, once Tony Blair's principal private secretary but now the chair of the electoral commission itself, and from former Liberal Democrat MP David Howarth, Former Labour MP Bridget Prentice and Lord John Horam, a former Tory, Labour and SDP MP have resulted in calls for their removal from office. Tory MP and Brexiteer Priti Patel said of the four that: "They should relinquish their positions and independent people should be brought in." And Jacob Rees Mogg said: "Anyone who has called for a second referendum or made political statements on Brexit ought to recuse him or herself from any decision with regard to the referendum." Well, I for one won't be holding my breath. All I will say is that the Electoral Commission does little or nothing to protect democracy - as this latest saga shows - but just seems to be another carriage on the political gravy train, and it should be wound up and replaced with something fit for purpose. Other topics include: 1. Business investment levels in the UK and why hasn't this been covered by the mainstream media? 2. Increasing confidence and a shift of mood in the city that the City of London will still be one of the two top global financial centres post-Brexit. 3. The economist Gwythian Prins claiming that the EU will fall apart just like the USSR did, but within one generation.
