Gary Neville is Right!

This government encourages racism and empowers racist yobs! It’s Trump all over again!

The Lying Blunderer Boris Johnson!!

They call him Boris because it presents a soft cuddly image. He tousles his hair and acts the fool because it presents the image of a bit of a rascal.

The reality is different.

This man is a lazy, overprivileged, lying, devious disaster. All he is interested in is himself, power and wealth. What a conman!

128,000 deaths are attributable to him!

A very good argument for Mandatory Mask wearing!!

The Corona Diaries – Day 479

Another beautiful day. I walked up my hill in gorgeous sunshine. Unfortunately they have mown the verges again and decimated the wild flowers, destroyed the habitats and put my temper into a dive!!

I have just got off the phone to the council and have arranged to meet up with the guy from the council to take him up the hill so we can gain a naturalists view on what needs doing (or not doing in this instance). I was surprised that I managed to persuade him.

Meanwhile out in Coronaland the mood is building. I think Boris’s bubble is slowly bursting. His approval ratings are negative and people are waking up to the blunders and lies.

He’s all for levelling up.

Levelling up in Johnson’s eyes means £840 per roll wallpaper free for him, millions doshed out to cronies for sweet FA, people put into post on massive salaries (up to £1,500,000) without interview, multimillion pound contracts given to Tory donors without any scrutiny or tendering, and pay cuts for teachers, nurses, drivers, council workers and shopkeepers.

Levelling up means one set of rules for Tories and another for us oiks.

Levelling up means cutting foreign aid (so that tens of thousands starve and girls don’t get educated) so that he can waste £900,000 on painting his Brexit plane and splash out £200 million on a new Brexit Royal Yacht!

Levelling up means maintaining bankers bonuses while cutting support for the unemployed and those in poverty (let the kids starve – Rashford will sort it).

Levelling up means keeping the south rich while telling the north that help is on the way (which it isn’t).

Promises, promises, promises!!!! But no bloody results!!!

Freedom Day is still on the cards!

This is what freedom seems to mean:

A soaring infection rate – up to 50,000 a day and heading for 100,000 a day.

A lot of very scared people.

A lot of vulnerable people driven back into complete isolation (3.4 million).

A lot of people who will still wear masks and distance and are not happy that others won’t.

People worried about their kids getting long covid and being damaged for life.

Hospital cases rising and stressed NHS warning of collapse.

Other operations and treatments being put on hold leading to more deaths, misery and suffering and huge waiting lists.

Phones pinging. Staff isolating and firms shutting. 500,000 pings yesterday! How many when the daily rate is 100,000?

A breeding ground for variants that could put us back to square 1.

Our populist clown thought that ‘Freedom Day’ would make him superpopular. He ignored all the scientists yet again and just went ahead in his lazy bumbling fashion. Trump had a way of totally ignoring science and working on his own intuition (business interests) and Johnson follows suit. Whatever is popular is the way to go.

That’s why we’ve got a bunch of extremists in control, Brexit ravaging the economy and Covid running riot.

Heaven help us!

Stay safe!! It’s Freedom (but not as we know it!)

The Tory Party – Donors to the Wealthy.

It was always thus!! They take from the poor and give to the rich while talking of levelling up and lying!

Robin Hood in reverse!

The give contracts to their hopeless friends. They dosh out billions to those all already have billions while it’s pay cuts for everybody else.

They spend millions on vanity projects like the Brexit plane and new Royal Yacht but pay cuts for nurses.

They are a bunch of con artists!

Ever been had! The clown is robbing you while you smile. £840 a roll wallpaper. Wine, caviar and champagne free on the house!!

Corruption and sleaze washed down with lies and a jolly Billy Bunter veneer.

Devious, ruthless, greedy Tories.

All going wrong for Conman Boris!

When you get it wrong, as our gaffe meister in charge is prone to do, it goes horribly pear-shaped!

The vultures are coming home to roost.

The invisible suit of teflon reveals an overprivileged populist who spouts any lie to get elected. They are beginning to see through him.

One cock-up after another. 130,000 dead. Blunder after blunder. And a buffoon of a clown presiding over the stinking mess playing the populist fool like an overgrown Billy Bunter.

Not Now Charlie at the Burton Agnes Jazz And Blues Festival

Some great guitar and interesting funky Jazz from this Newcastle group.

Pee Wee Ellis at the Burton Agnes Jazz and Blues Festival.

Quite an honour to get to see Pee Wee. This is the guy who was musical director for both James Brown and Van Morrison! A legend. He didn’t disappoint. Even as the mist of the sea fret rolled in he warmed the night up with some cool funk.
