The Faux Throne Speech…Will She Go ‘Round In Circles?

Will she?

Go ’round in circles, I mean.

Of course she will.

But that’s not the point.

Because, unlike Billy Preston under the ‘Fro, once you remove the paint from the (not)Premier there clearly is no there there….

So.

If the suitcase on the top shelf really is empty, what’s this morning’s talk show stunt in place of a throne speech (that was never scheduled to happen) all about anyway Alfie?

Is it, as the Talk Show’s former ‘producer’, who is currently the (not)Premier’s deputy prop-sec, announced late late last week:

Sure.

Maybe.

But don’t expect that ‘agenda’ to be something that really matters to the real British Columbians who do the working and toiling and building and sweating in this province.

Because the only thing the (not)Premier and the wizards pulling her strings really want to do is turn those poll numbers around just enough to keep the minions from jumping ship completely over the next three months while they get ready to unleash their patented wedge issue-laden media-assisted blitzkriegs.

And, more importantly, with the return of The Knotty Gordian last week, it is clear to anyone who has really been paying attention (and/or who actually feels the pain when they get whacked up the side of the head by the HST at the supermarket every week) that absolutely nothing has changed around here since he left.

In other words, the real agenda is to keep the sell-off of everything going strong and leave the messy little matter of retail politics to the wizards and their creature candidates.

Progress board analyses and growing inequality gap reports be damned.

OK?
