Welcome to the dis-United Kingdom! What on earth have the British people done? God help us all now we have a majority Conservative government. We now have a recipe for complete chaos with a small majority and moving towards an in-out referendum over our membership of the EU, and a Tory party obsessed with being anti-EU.

The dis-united nature of Britain  can be seen with Scotland turning towards nationalism and away from UK politics altogether, large parts of the north of England turning towards the Labour party (can we join Scotland?), Wales bizarrely swinging towards the Conservatives. The polarisation between rich and poor ended up with the majority of London being Labour. The midlands and the south (middle England) turning more strongly towards the Tories than previously, and 60% of the entire population voting against them.

However, I am proud of the good people of Grimsby voting in a local woman Mel Onn representing the Labour party with an increased majority. It was good to send that vile fascist Victoria Ayling out of town, hopefully to never return! I was disappointed to see our neighbours in Cleethorpes let us down and re-elected Martin Vickers instead of that good man Peter Keith. Apart from the area around Park Street which  is virtually the East Marsh, many people in Cleethorpes see themselves as a cut above the working people of Grimsby. That's the problem with many who become self employed and move to Cleethorpes, see themselves as middle class and then vote Tory and support benefit cuts on the poor. However, they are quite prepared to fiddle the system claiming tax relief on as many things as possible! They should be happy now they've elected the Tories, but when the £12 billion of cuts begin and Grimsby is devastated and the uncertainty over the EU referendum kicks in, they'll have no customers and their businesses will go bankrupt!!

Now the Tories are in power they will be trying to introduce all manner of vindictive shit! They have said they intend to repeal the Human Rights Act - clearly they don't think the poor should have any rights. Say goodbye to the NHS, it was excellent while it lasted - just remember what it used to be like as you pay your GP. When you have no employment rights and your boss can dismiss you because he or she doesn't like the look of your face! When they remove a trade unions ability to take industrial action and undermine any rights that working people have, don't blame me! If you're a fox and you live near Brocklesby, my advice is move into town before the sick perverted Tories repeal the fox hunting ban, hunt you down and tear you apart with their dogs!! Then the £12 billion of welfare cuts are coming and when they do they will destroy people's lives, sending more people to foodbanks to survive, and pushing even more people to suicide.

Anyway, after the general election result I haven't had a particularly good week, the odd result apart (Mel Onn winning Grimsby and Ester McVile losing on the Wirral) but all eyes are now firmly focused on Wembley Stadium and the Mariners play-off final against Bristol Rovers. It's a shame the Conference's two best teams are meeting each other in the final - Barnet were inferior to both teams but with Akinde up front he took them to promotion. It should be a close game and hopefully Grimsby's recent experience of both the play-offs and Wembley will give them the edge. Hopefully, by the end of the weekend Grimsby Town FC will be back proudly in the football league, but if not the same as with the Tories we will fight on forever and never be beaten!!!

UTM and an end to this unwanted Tory government.

Captain Haddock.
