Boris Johnson’s self-interest power-grabbing Brexit put the most extreme bunch of nationalists in charge of the country.
Johnson proved beyond doubt what we all knew – that he was an idle, useless, lying, incompetent windbag.
The ERG set about purging the Tory Party of anybody who was not radical enough and so Kenneth Clark, Rory Stewart, Philip Hammond and their ilk were ousted.
We were left with an incompetent bunch of extreme right-wingers – the nastiest of the nasty – Priti Patel, Kemi Badenoch, Jacob Rees-Mogg and a supporting cast of incompetent twats – Liz Truss, Peter Bone, Nadine Doris, Chris Grayling, Jeremy Hunt, Michael Gove and Dominic Raab.
The Tory Party was effectively taken over by the insane asylum.
They’ve proceeded to apply their dogma and hatred of foreigners to the detriment of the British people.
The tabloid propaganda machine orchestrated by the Sun, Express, Mail and BBC, has cheered them on with bursts of xenophobic racism and a chorus of phoney patriotism.
Their stupidity and racist policies have resulted in huge losses and damage to the economy. massive inflation, austerity, pay cuts, destruction of public services, cost of living crisis coupled with corruption, sleaze and handouts to Tory donors.
Brexit has been a disaster for the country. Johnson a lying scarecrow. Sunak an insipid jerk. The ERG a bunch of despicable self-serving extremists who are lining their own pockets at our expense.
Yet the population of Britain has lurched so far to the right, has such a xenophobic/racist streak, that they are prepared to put up with all this and many of the Express and Mail reading working class still vote Tory and talk about how lovely Boris is. This gives the loathsome Tories hope.
I despair.
It is glaringly obvious what we should do (apart from a revolution). We should vote out these greedy elitists so they can make their millions elsewhere and rejoin the Single Market and Custom’s Union ASAP!
We can then renationalise water, power and rail, take the obscene profits back from the foreign bankers and investors, apply windfall taxes, properly pay our key workers and properly fund our public services.
In my opinion, anyone who votes Tory is either a complete brainwashed dork or a raving racist/xenophobic elitist.
The more we move towards the right the worse it is for the world.
I really don’t understand this need in a lot of people to flirt with fascism and right-wing ideology. Right-wing leaders like Trump, B0olsonaro, Modi, Oban and Johnson are all the same, in it for power and wealth.
I know, it’s odd to me as well. But people will do anything for their selfish wants.
Yes, exactly!
