The Goebbels method – Tory Fantasyland. All the Big Calls!!

Makes me sick when I hear our pompous, arrogant clown saying that he ‘Got All The Big Calls Right!’

I don’t think he got a single call right!!

First came Brexit

Johnson changed his mind and rushed through a terrible deal just so he could become PM.

He ran a campaign that lied from beginning to end.

There is no Brexit dividend.

It is costing us a fortune – £130 billion (more than we paid to the EU in 40 years) so far plus a hit of 4% of DGP. – which is why we have not had the recovery of other countries.

It has caused many firms to go bust or move abroad.

It is strangling us in red tape.

We now have costly, time-consuming border checks, tariffs and queues.

The fantasyland wonderful foreign trade deals never happened and won’t happen.

We lost our freedom to move, work and study.

What did we get back? Higher costs, shortages, food rotting in fields, job shortages and the replacement of EU workers with workers from Africa and India.

Who has suffered? Farmers, fishermen, carers, NHS, haulage, catering, and the general public (prices shot up).

Who has benefitted? Wealthy Tories like Rees-Mogg who moved their companies abroad and made millions.

Then we have Ireland and the break-up of the UK.

If Covid hadn’t come along people might have been quicker to recognise Brexit as the disaster it is!!

The cost of duplicating services, providing border checks, lorry parks, civil servants, border inspectors and the like is enormous. For what?? (IMO – racism and arrogance).

That was a series of calls that were ALL wrong.

Then Came Covid

First, they ignored the Cygnet report that said they were unprepared for an imminent pandemic.

Then they ignored the pandemic taking off in China for four months (living in a blind Brexit euphoria).

Then, when they realised that Italy and Spain were being swamped, they panicked and dumped elderly patients out of the NHS into Care Homes – killing thousands.

They spent millions on Nightingale hospitals that were never used.

They spent billions on apps and T&T that never worked

They had an illegal VIP fast-track to give billions to Tories to produce PPE and ventilators – that did not work. (Including Hancock’s landlord).

They shut down too late.

They opened up too early.

They brought in silly schemes – like Eat Out To Help Out – that set it off again.

They were bailed out by the drug companies developing the vaccines (for which the Tories falsely claimed credit!!!)

The Ukraine War

They hid up the Brexit disaster with Covid and hid up Covid with Ukraine!

Johnson went off on his photo shoots and supplied arms.

Johnson – saviour of Western Democracy?? I don’t think so! How to make a profit out of war!!

The Cost of Power

The cost of electricity and gas has shot through the roof.

What has the Tory government done?? Fuck all!!

Have they rushed in a series of grants to insulate houses? NO!!

Have they nationalised the gas and electricity?? NO!! (France did – their energy supply went up 5% – ours 50% and another 50% to come)

Have they ploughed more into green energy – tidal barriers, solar and wind – with grants for the public??? NO!! They are still dithering.

The Global Warming Catastrophe

40 degrees is just the start. Forest fires, floods, droughts, extreme temperatures, extreme weather.

Johnson went to COP 26 and then copped out!!

Now they are talking fracking, oil exploration and even coal!!

Are they NUTS????

Petrol Price rise

The cost of petrol affects everything. The price of goods goes through the roof. Travel is expensive.

What have the Tories done?? They’ve enjoyed the extra revenue from tax on fuel!!

So where are all these big calls that Johnson and his Tory minions got right????

What we have is the Goebbels method!! Lie repeatedly and gullible people begin to believe you! That’s what Trump does!!

Goodbye and Good Riddance to a Lying, Shambling Clown!!

As the Right-wing media try to rewrite history!! The truth is that this lying chancer has been taking us all for a ride out of selfish greed. He wanted power and riches and cynically did what he needed to do to get them – a man without principles or honour.

He lied and cheated.

He was as corrupt and sleazy as the very worst.

He never took responsibility for any of his lies or failures.

He was lazy, shameless and as devious as they come.

He hid in fridges to avoid scrutiny, encouraged licentiousness and behaved like a clown.

He deliberately scruffed his hair up and went around like a slob because he knew it appealed to a gullible section of the electorate.

Worst of all – HE WAS INEPT!! INCOMPETENT!! USELESS!!

He made a complete pig’s ear of Brexit in order to get himself elected. It has already cost the country £130 billion and 4% off our GDP. Far from the promised Brexit Dividend, our grandchildren will still be picking up the bill for this mess. All those wonderful foreign deals were a pack of lies. All those scheming ultra nationalists wanted was power at any cost! They made millions out of it. We pick up the bill. We’re drowning in red tape, tariffs and travel restrictions.

He completely messed up Covid. Unprepared, too slow in reacting, too slow in shutting down, too early opening up, stupid eat out to help out schemes, useless apps, useless Track and Trace, corrupt VIP lanes giving billions away to fraudsters and their chums. Tens of thousands of needless deaths and countless billions spaffed up the wall. If it hadn’t been for the drug companies coming out with the vaccines we would have been buggered.

He’s piled taxes on the poor while the wealthy still get their bonuses and the tax loopholes mean they can stash their ill-gotten gains abroad. We have austerity while they have a bonanza.

We now have energy prices through the roof while the energy companies are creaming it in.

We have petrol prices through the roof while the oil companies are creaming it in.

We have a cost of living crisis created by Brexit and greed.

He hid Brexit behind Covid and Covid behind Ukraine. The man has been the worst PM we’ve ever had – a greedy, slovenly narcissist who has done immense harm to the country and particularly the ordinary citizens.

He doesn’t want kicking out; he wants locking up!!

Now the Right-wing propaganda machine are trying to lionise this selfish, greedy, incompetent clown!

We’ve got rid of a lying, dishonourable, shambling nincompoop, that’s what!
Freedom to pay more, fill in red tape and wait in line so that some nasty exploiters can stash millions.
He can kiss my arse!! Poor old Boris – off for a blow job and a shag. Probably leave Wilf and Carrie in the lurch like he’s done with all the rest of his kids, wives and lovers. All that ever matters is Boris!!

GOODBYE and GOOD RIDDANCE!!!

Poetry – Cynical Leadership

Cynical Leadership

Inciting, infiltrating and spinning

Deviously

To prey upon the gullible.

Threatening, posturing and jeering

Arrogantly

To enrage the peaceable.

Cajoling, lying and frightening

Blatantly

To scare the fallible.

Any tactic will do

To gain their power.

Illegal, immoral or insane

Turning the future sour.

Opher – 31.8.2020

I was thinking of Trump, Johnson, Cummings and Bolsonaro when I wrote this. I was thinking about the way they manipulate people with simplistic slogans; the way they drum up fear; the way they incite division and tribalism.

We’ve had the obnoxious reign of Trump and we’ve got the disaster of Brexit that will hit us in January 2021. All conjured up with blatant lies and duplicitous statements.

Spin, fake news, conspiracy and outright untruths.

That’s politics.

It stinks.

Leadership??? Not capable.

Where is the direction? The inspiration? The sensible policies? Nowhere to be seen!!

Where is the guidance and advice??

Why is everything late, overly optimistic and plain daft!!

Why aren’t we having daily updates?? Why isn’t Sage meeting with the government??

Why is Johnson and this ERG bunch of useless twats getting on top of things???

It’s Deja Vu all over again!!

The Cult of Johnson!

The deliberately ruffled hair, the over-optimism, the joke and aside, the slogans and soundbites, the pleasant jokey nature – all disguise the callous, calculated, elitist arrogance of an incompetent overprivileged chancer.

The spoilt brat thinks that he is entitled to wealth and privilege. He’s a conman of the worst kind and he’s laughing his head off all the way to the bank.

Look at what he does – not at what he says: He’s shovelling cash into the coffers of the wealthy at the expense of the rest of us.
