2026 Political Predictions
Jump to: Newest in thread
Labour have never deposed a leader by formal challenge so unless he resigns we are stuck with him.
Then again, alternatives such as Angela Rayner would be much worse in the short term. However it may be worth it as it would ensure Labour never gets into power again.
I suspect that Reform will lose their way slightly due to lack of policies. The conservatives will gain slightly but not enough to win power. Labour, LibDem and Green will form a hard left alliance and may gain enough votes to win the next election. We may get a referendum on rejoining the EU, or they may just do it anyway.
On a global scale there will be some sort of uneasy peace forced on Ukraine by Trump, to deflect from Epstein scandals. It will only last for a few years while Russia re-arms.
China will take Taiwan before 2030. The West won’t intervene.
There will be more instability in the Middle East, leading to a rise in terrorist incidents.

I predict we will become closer to the EU in 2026, with an outlook to commit to joining the EU customs union post the next GE and I expect that to surface around 2027 - 28. It is the only possibility of Labour winning another GE in the next 10 years. |

Labour will continue to be damaged by money/tax/non conforming scandals amongst it's MPs. Starmer will fail to smash any criminal gang organising channel day trips in any meaningful way. PFI scandals will be revealed .More tax raising measures in budgets . |

Nigel Farage to come out as gay and reveal a passionate affair with David Lammy.
They’ll get married and Diane Abbott will perform the ceremony and the Calais Boat People Choir will sing.
They will honeymoon in Keir Starmer’s basement. |

Prime Minister Starmer will step back in response to something we are not aware of after the May elections.
The new leader will drop Reeves like a Russian dissident from a penthouse apartment.
In an attempt to gain public support, the new PM will rewrite the Human Rights Act with little meaningful change.
President Trump will publicly lose it over the failure for the protagonists to complete a peace deal, pulling all support for anybody he feels aggrieved at.
President Macron will see at least 2 French Prime Ministers appointed and resign.
The former Archbishop of Canterbury will be the last Celebrity left in the Jungle. |

Sorry not a prediction but an observation. I read somewhere this week that the vast majority of US dollars in circulation today were printed in the past 5 to 10 years and that regardless of what party is in power the US economy is set to decline as more countries sign up to BRICS. So with the expansion of BRICS and the petrol chemical dollar losing significance are we likely to see a rapid decline in US influence and power ?

the government will announce a deal between, bae systems, rolls royce, nasa, google and space x to send into space satellites which can sort power from the sun and send it back to earth so reducing the need for high power consumpation on earth for A.I. data centres.
these will be controlled by the united states and capable in time of war to blackout countries.
the stored power will always be able to be used as a weapon.

European countries are restarting the hunt for domestic oil and gas in a shift away from an energy strategy that in recent years prioritised renewable investment, according to the head of one of the continent’s largest independent gas producers.
Mathios Rigas, chief executive of Energean, said Greece, Italy and Cyprus — all countries where the London-listed, Mediterranean-focused gas producer is active — had shown signs of shifting their approach since Russia’s 2022 full-blown invasion of Ukraine upended European energy markets.
“If you look at Greece five years ago or seven years ago, [it] was only talking about green investments: shutting down lignite-fired power plants, promoting only green investments,” he told the FT.
“Now, one of the top items on the agenda is the well we will drill with Exxon . . . in western Greece. That’s a big shift,” he said, adding: “Potentially — using the words very carefully because we still have to drill the wells — we have the ability to create a situation where Greece becomes energy independent.”
In Italy, where a law preventing new exploration has been overturned in the courts, Rigas said Energean was in talks over new exploration licences, including in an area adjacent to one of its Greek prospects.
“I’m not saying we are there, but we are at least in active discussions about reopening exploration,” he said. “The Italian government is actively looking at allowing new activities to happen, when a few years ago it wasn’t even . . . on the agenda.”
While European countries continue to invest significantly in renewables, they have slowed down their transition to clean energy in the past year, particularly in areas where alternative fuels such as hydrogen remain relatively expensive. As a result, oil companies now expect a longer lifespan for fossil fuels and are rushing to secure more reserves.
