Lies

Lies

All false.

                Just a front.

                                Actions of a lazy grunt.

Every word

                That goes by;

                                Every deed – a lie.

They never intend

                To sort things out

                                They don’t care.

Smugly grasping,

                Arrogantly pocketing,

                                Spouting that they’ll make things fair.

Empty words,

                In soundbites,

                                Designed to deceive.

Delivered

                With feigned concern

                                To make us believe.

Part of

                A system that exploits

                                The poor.

They design it

                So that we

                                Get no more.

The rich

                Get richer

                                While the poor starve.

If they had

                Their way

                                They’d cut that in half.

All the promises,

                Glibly delivered,

                                Are nowt but lies

They talk

                About levelling up

                                While robbing us blind.

Unpick

                Their lies

                                And what do you find?

Lies! Lies! Lies!

Opher – 25.6.2022

During these past twelve years of austerity the wealthy have increased their wealth enormously. Huge multi-million contracts have been handed out willy-nilly. Massive salaries have been given freely to ‘the right people’. Huge multimillion bonuses have been given to those at the top. Many Tory MPs are pocketing huge sums for lobbying, second jobs, telling secrets, or dividends. Huge sums are being deposited tax-free abroad.

Those at the bottom are systematically blamed. We have to have pay freezes in order to save the economy.

We are promised sunny uplands, Brexit dividends, levelling up.

We receive tax hikes, massive inflation, a cost of living crisis, energy bills through the roof, petrol prices rocketing and wage cuts.

Power companies and oil companies are creaming off incredible profits.

Aren’t you as fed up with these lies as I am??

Oven-ready, world-beating lies!!

Looks like another of those Tory Austerity detours and not the promised sunny uplands.

Remember all those oven-ready deals, wonderful trade deals, sunlit uplands and money for the NHS??

Remember the talk of Project Fear and Remoaners??

Remember how we were all in it together and had to tighten our belts in order to bail out the bankers? That was just before Cameron and Osborne went off to put hay in their lofts.

Now Johnson’s gone off to put hay in his loft (when he can be bothered to do anything) while lazing about on holiday.

Remember the time when the Public Services were properly funded and actually worked?

Remember life before the Tories started robbing everyone to give hand-outs to bankers, chums, baronesses, Russians, landlords, donors, oil companies, power companies and lobbyists??

I remember it all!!

(Remember a time when the Tabloid Press didn’t pour our lies and Tory propaganda? – no, neither can I!)

Higher Prices, Lower GDP, Higher Taxes, Cuts to Public Services – the reality of Brexit!

We’re all poorer. That’s a fact. Our public services are worse. Our pay is worse. We have decades of austerity ahead. All because we believed the lies that Cummings, Johnson and Farage spun. They promised Brexit dividends, sunny uplands, oven-ready deals, a prosperous global Britain. They’ve delivered cuts, tax increases and poverty.

Time to fix it! Rejoin the Single Market and Customs Union.

Partygate and the Court of the Sin King by Rowson

The court of Johnson overseen by Princess Nut Nut, where the police at the door wear blinkers and the civil servants are thrown under the bus.

This is the palace where the ones who hold the parties and give out the invites are exonerated while those who were invited to bring a bottle and don their party hats are found guilty.

This is Johnson’s Britain; a land divided, a land of two sides – the wealthy elite who can do no wrong and the rest of us who must pay the price. US AND THEM. The gap grows ever bigger as we pick up the mounting bills for their incompetence and corruption.

They party with impunity.

SHOCK!!!! HORROR!!! British Public Grossly Misled By British Gutter Press!!! Who Would Believe it!!!!

Wonderland of Brexit!! £900 Billion oven-ready trade deals!! We’re all going to be rich!!!

Not only are we going to be immensely richer – but our food is going to be DIRT CHEAP!!

To suggest anything else is PROJECT FEAR!!!!

Johnson with another Oven-Ready deal in the Last-Ditch Saloon.

He sure doesn’t like scrutiny or accountability! He couldn’t find a suitable fridge so he’s had to jet off to India!!

Behind his back they are plotting to rid themselves of the incompetent lying clown.

Partgate is not trivial (as his minions keep trying to make out); it goes right to the heart of what makes Johnson so unsuited for high office:

It shows the arrogance – he allowed a whole slew of parties to take place (twenty – thirty) while he had commanded the country to strictly lockdown and forbade anybody to meet up under threat of heavy fines or prison. He clearly thought the laws did not apply to him and his ilk. It was clearly one rule for us plebs and one rule for the snobby elite.

It demonstrates his sense of privilege. He feels able to do as he wants and expects us to do as we are told.

It shows bad judgement and woeful disregard.

When caught out his first instinct was to lie and lie and lie. He told us and the Commons repeatedly that there were no parties and no covid rules were broken. He was at a number of the parties! He knew the rules had been broken. How can you be in a room with others, with cake, drink and party hats and not know the strict rules were being broken?? Unbelieveable!! So we plebs could not meet up with dying relatives, with friends and relatives in dire need, yet they could meet up, hold party games and smuggle booze in in shopping trolleys.

This dishonesty is a character trait. He displayed it in all past jobs. He displayed it in the Brexit campaign (£350 million a week). He lied about benefits. He lied about care plans. He lied about Brexit deals (oven-ready). It’s the Trumpian logic – say a lie often enough and enough people will believe it.

He’s now lying about having beaten covid, about wonderful Brexit and levelling up. He’s lying about the cost of living, second salaries, reasons for tax and national insurance rises. Is there nothing he hasn’t lied about or exaggerated?

How can an incompetent, lazy liar be allowed to be Prime Minister? He has no morality (ask his ex-wife and lovers). He has no integrity. He says the first thing that comes into his head if it gets him out of a hole!!

The sooner we are rid of this self-serving liar the better. He has got this country in an absolute mess!
