Election year sporting sensation: migrant tennis
Things are getting interesting in the UK. Not only is Scotland's First Minister "Humza Useless" about to jump before getting pushed, but the Tories are going to get thumped in local elections on the 2nd of May, followed by a possible move to dump Rishi Sunak as Prime Minister and Tory leader.
With Humza gone don't expect order to return to Scottish politics. As I have long argued, the Scottish devolved government (in fact all the devolved governments) were designed to fail by never having a clear majority party through giving them various forms of proportional representation. This means that Westminster was always designed to have the whip hand. Humza will probably be replaced as SNP leader and First Minister by someone with an Irish name.
Meanwhile a bad defeat for the Tories in the local elections on May 2nd (almost certain) will presumably kick off an attempt to replace Rishi as PM.
If this succeeds on the back of Humza going down, then the upper reaches of British politics may suddenly look a lot less brown. Of course, the Tories might then fluff it all by putting in another brown face (Badenoch or Cleverly) who will face the same "racial glass ceiling" in "connecting" with key Tory demographics.

Whoever the next Tory leader is, the Tories will continue to push hard on their "Stop the Boats" Rwanda Plan, which they see as the only way, besides tax cuts, to gain a competitive advantage against Labour in the general election, expected sometime around November.
Any successor to Rishi will be likely to stick with this policy as this is one area where Labour simply can't go, and gestural anti-immigration policies like this are very popular with those most likely to vote Tory, or even Labour.
Already the Rwanda Plan is having a positive effect, with many illegal immigrants deciding to escape into the Republic of Ireland, a country with its own rich history of sending out its surplus population to more generous lands.
Ireland's relative lack of a Deep State in evidence
But Ireland, with few Deep State resources to keep a lid on the pressures of "sudden multiculturalism," is struggling badly with the influx, and is demanding Britain take back its "Rwanda dodgers."
Will this lead to a cross-border bout of "unwanted migrant tennis," with possibly France and the rest of the EU also dragged in? It certainly looks like it.
