Plus about a thousand other fuckups. He tried his best to stay away from doing any work at all. But when he was forced into it almost everything he touched he made worse. Then there was Cummings. And Patel. And Dorries. When asked what his successes were Johnson claimed a) to have got Brexit done and b) to have delivered the vaccine programme. He did neither, of course. He just lied that he did. Those things happened on his watch. Brexit still isn’t ‘done’ and the vaccines were developed by academics working with pharma and got into people’s arms by Kate Bingham.
They must be pretty special to ‘forget’ all of this.
Yeah, brilliant, single greatest crisis we’ve faced since WW2 - literally years in the making - and the answer is “Herp-derp! Red Team Beat Blue Team!”…

I’m used to inept Labour oppositions, but have you really not noticed that presented with an unceasing array of W-I-D-E open goals by the last 12 years of tories, that they are usually still trying to do keepy-uppies in the changing room?
We’re in the middle of a fucking disaster - setting aside the woeful soccer similes for a moment: Britain is currently akin to a burning supertanker overrun by millions of rabid weasels with AIDS heading at full speed towards a kindergarten made of matches full of cute blind kids all playing with adorable puppies and kittens. The current Labour party is just about fit to act as a squishy impact point, but they don’t exactly have the ‘Avengers-Assemble’ chops to save the day. To have any hope of doing that we need some actual talent - People That Are Actually Good At Stuff - not just one haphazard group of clueless career-politicians that can’t even sort-out a toxic vein of racism in their own damned shitshow…
I’m all in favour of a Labour govt at some point, but we need something a lot more radical and a whole lot smarter than the current brand of half-hearted, populist ‘tory lite’ bollocks that they offer. When that’s the best we can hope for (and right now it is) I’m tempted to fucking neck myself.
Unfortunately our entire electoral system means this can’t happen. Magic grandpa arguably had the most left wing manifesto for generations and look what happened.
Labour need to be a sightly better choice to win, then they can move the dial left. One thing truss has shown is that if you don’t give a fuck you can move that dial massively overnight. Even if she is binned tomorrow the tories will have lurched right massively
Surely that constitutes insider trading. Basically he gave them a tip to short the pound, which they all did, made a fortune, caused the pound to fall even harder and ultimately made them even more money at the expense of everyone else. Turbo cunt.
Not really, any decent journalist would have gone for the jugular. Kuenssburg played patty cake with her from I saw. LK really is feckless and needs to fuck off.
That answer was the briefing from her team. The truth is less than half off her MPs and less than half those eligible to vote in the Tory Party leadership election.
It’s one of those occasions where the fuck up answer (see video above) is less of a fuck up than the truth.
You do have to factor in the fact she’s very complacent, and DGAF, so she doesn’t ever try very hard. She’s also accustomed to being told that everything that comes out of her face is brilliant and true, and has the ego to back that up.
She is literally the last person to realise that she isn’t really very bright nor up to the job…
