It’s been very cold here. We went out in a big flurry of snow and drove to the coast. The sun came out and the temperature rose and it turned out cold but beautiful.
We visited Flamborough – the fabulous chalk cliffs with lighthouses and seals on the beach. Had a really nice walk!
I’m getting totally frustrated with this stupid Hotmail verification system. Nothing works and I can no longer get into my hotmail email account. So if you have emailed me recently sorry. I can neither get your email nor reply. It’s driving me mad. I’m sending all manner of stuff in and nothing works. There is nobody human to talk to!! Luckily for them there is no handy Microsoft office nearby or I’d be on a multiple homicide charge!!
I’ve set up a new email address. You can now contact me via opher.goodwin@gmail.com
Meanwhile, out in Coronaland, I was listening to Jenrick trying to tell us that the clown we have in charge was the world’s lynchpin for dealing with Ukraine. I think he was obviously getting confused with words. He most probably meant that our hopeless lying clown needed lynching!
To call Johnson the lynchpin of anything is simply bizarre. He’s all mouth and no trousers! What comes out of his mouth is a torrent of promises and lies. What comes out of his actions is a mess of uselessness, broken promises and utterly hopeless fiascos. He tells us about world-beating apps, world-beating track and trace, oven-ready plans, £350 million a week savings, and ready-made social care policies. It’s all lies. The guy must have a diet of magic mushrooms; his metabolism produces LSD, he lives in a fantasy world of his own where everything he dreams up is instantly real. But none of it is true, nothing works and it’s all some utopian vision he has in his own head. A universe of lies!!
A lynchpin?????????
Here’s the silly twerp being snubbed by everyone at NATO – some lynchpin!!
The war in Ukraine is changing. The Russians are giving up on trying to take Kyiv and concentrating on the Donbas. We’ll see. They are bringing in conscripts and desperately dragging in mercenaries and reinforcements from wherever they can get them. Not sure that is going to create a motivated, cohesive fighting unit. The reports are that they have suffered 17,500 dead and at least twice that number wounded. How long can they sustain this level of loss? The Russian military has not covered itself with glory. Corruption and poor leadership have taken their toll. But it is in its nasty phase. When you’ve seen your friends shot and blown to pieces it makes you want revenge – hence the shooting and raping of civilians. War destroys minds.
What’s all this about a cancer specialist at Putin’s side? Is that just propaganda?? What to believe.
Partygate is smouldering. Will it burst into flames? Will the MET start giving out more penalties?? Will they give one to Blowjob and his Mrs?
It would already appear to me that enough has been done to prove Johnson lied to Parliament. He went to the House and stated quite clearly that there were no parties. He stated that all covid rules had been followed. Both of these are now clearly proven to be a lie. The police are given out fines for illegal parties so quite clearly laws were broken, and there were parties and covid rules were broken. We’ll see how many fines are eventually given. This reminds me of Trump. He broke law after law and nothing happens.
One rule for them another for us.
Rees-Mogg and other Tories are saying stupid things as usual – talking about the trivia of a little tinsel and cake when there’s a war going on. They miss the point. This isn’t about the triviality of him having a glass of wine, a piece of cake and a small party; this is about two things:
Firstly, he set the rules and immediately broke them. He arrogantly thought the rules did not apply to him. One rule for them; another for us! That is inexcusable!
Secondly, he lied to the country (repeatedly) and lied to the House. A man who cannot be trusted to tell the truth cannot lead the country – particularly in times of war!!
This is a man with no honour. Any other Prime Minister would have already resigned!
We have a president for kicking out Prime Ministers in times of War. In 1940, in the darkest time in the war with Germany, Chamberlain was kicked out and replaced by Churchill!!
Johnson needs to go. Abroad he is viewed as a liability and laughed at. Here two-thirds of the country think he’s incompetent. It makes you wonder about the intelligence and sanity of the other third!
I wish the Labour Party would find itself a charismatic leader. They should be 70 points clear.
In the pandemic that no longer exists there were an incredible 69,689 new cases yesterday. I say incredible because I was expecting none! The government has developed a new strategy to save the Big Dog Turd. They’ve stopped testing. Don’t test and you don’t have any positive cases, right? So to record nearly 70,000 cases is amazing! I know lots of people with it or just getting over it. The virus is rife and busy spawning variants.
The hospital cases are zooming up – from around 11,000 to 18,809. But the good news is that only 352 are in intensive care and only 191 died.
If we had a competent leader they would be talking to us about this, explaining the reasoning and treatments.
We haven’t got a competent leader. The one we’ve got would probably start erring and hrrrummmpphing, talking about Peppa Pig and telling us to drink bleak and shove UV probes up our anuses.
How did we get into this mess?
Stay safe, avoid nuclear missiles and don’t breathe indoors!!
A cold day with an Arctic wind. I hobbled over the crunchy hailstones to reach the bins and thought better of going out for a walk. I stayed in, wrote some poems and read my Jasper Fforde. I was meant to be going off to the studio to record a podcast with my mate Mike but Dave was unwell so that didn’t happen. Heading off for a meal with friends this evening. A lazy day!! I hope this weather improves! It was 18 degrees a few days back!
Meanwhile, out in Coronaland, the resident Wurzel the Liar is still in office. 20 fixed penalty notices have been served (for starters) so the police reckon that criminality occurred at Number 10. But still the clown denies this. He assures us that if he is served with a fixed penalty notice he will tell us – so that means he will not reveal a thing.
Out in Ukraine Putin is calling in reserves from Georgia, regathering his forces and signing up conscripts. The huge loss of troops and equipment in the war has left him looking like a school bully who has just been knocked cold by the smallest kid in the class. Everything is going wrong. Supposedly a superpower who is poised to take on the world they look more like a souffle that’s been taken out of the oven too soon. His cronies are feeding him misinformation, his troops are either rebelling or being shot to pieces and his equipment is being blown up or breaking down. Not the romp in the park that he thought it was going to be. He was under the impression that he’d sail into Ukraine, be welcomed by the populace, oust the neoNazi government and create a puppet state like he’s done with Belarus. Not quite!
The people of Ukraine knew better. They didn’t want fascist Putin putting them back under that oppressive regime. They didn’t want oppression and suppression. They didn’t think their government was neoNazi. They were prepared to fight to the death to kick the invaders out! They, with the help of Western lethal aid, are kicking the butt of the Russian bear.
India and China are still sitting on the fence. Brazil is another populist fascist state under the greedy Bolsonaro (lining his pockets) siding with fascism.
Makes you wonder, doesn’t it?
The world’s in a mess. Communism descends into oppressive fascism being preyed on by a selfish, greedy elite. Democracy descends in unbridled capitalism with an exploited majority preyed on by a greedy elite.
Is there nowhere where fairness and equality exist? Is it a human flaw that we self-perpetuate unjust hierarchical systems no matter what we do? We force in democracy to give the people power and the elite undermine it by brainwashing the population and lying to them. We force revolutions and find that we replace one set of greedy monsters with another set that are even worse.
Everything has descended into fake news, propaganda and conspiracy. The web, purveyor of freedom, has been taken over by the people telling us everything is fake while feeding us that fake.
There’s no hope! Inequality and greed rule!
So, in this context, Putin is getting more desperate and trying to at least conquer some part of Ukraine to save face. He’s wasting countless billions pounding cities into dust in revenge on the ungrateful Ukrainians who rejected him as a saviour. He’s pumping out fake news and propaganda. The Russian public love him. He is fighting neoNazis in a liberating manoeuvre. The Ukrainians are flattening their own cities. People saying anything else are traitors facing 15 years in Siberia. Opposition, like Nalavny’s party, are being silenced (one way or another). Putin is using his secret police to keep order and crushing protest. He’s lying. He’s threatening the West with nuclear holocaust and he’s threatening to turn off the gas. His economy is crumbling (shutting off the gas won’t help that) and there’s no way out. Generals, who aren’t already killed, are being castigated, replaced or worse.
What does the future hold??
Meanwhile, we are in a Cost of Living Crisis the like of which we have not seen in modern times. Tory policies are all coming home to roost as global calamities highlight the sequence of corrupt and inept actions they have been gaily doing for 12 years. For twelve years they have been cutting public services, cutting wages and giving away huge numbers of billions to the wealthy. They have brought in a disastrous Brexit and wasted eye-watering amounts on mishandling Covid. They are raising taxes, refusing to tax the wealthy or energy companies, have been stealthily promoting privatisation (to put more money in their chums’ pockets), and creating massive inequality. Food banks and rough sleeping, poverty and starving kids. They call this Global Britain and talk of levelling up. It’s all a pack of lies. The crisis brought about by global changes and their own greed and ineptitude has resulted in a tsunami that is hitting all of us. What a disaster!
But – all I can say is – YOU VOTED FOR THESE GREEDY LYING SELFISH OVER-PRIVILEGED BASTARDS!! I saw them for what they are – Profiteers!!
So to the pandemic that used to be important but is now just a footnote. Big Dog Turd has been saved. It’s over! He’s the saviour!
Except that’s bollocks.
He removed all restrictions in order to gain popularity. Not a shred of science in it.
Last week saw a record number of 4.9 million people going down with Covid – 1.13 – a new record. I know of more people with it than ever before. It’s out of control, breeding variants and waiting a little longer until the vaccine immunity dwindles.
Good luck!
We’re going to need it!!
Stay safe!! Virus, starvation, freezing or holocaust – nice set of Tory choices!!
Last week it was temperatures of 18 degrees and T-shirts. Today I looked out and it was snow and subzero temperatures. I bet this cold snap has done huge damage to the fruit trees.
Needless to say, I stayed in and played some Woody Guthrie and read some Jasper Fforde. Isolation is OK. I’ve got quite used to not going out and not seeing too many people. I wrote a poem and played around with my blog.
It’s incredibly frustrating. I am still blocked from my hotmail email service. They want me to verify my account. It’s all done electronically. You can’t talk to anyone. You have to remember all the emails you’ve sent and write out exactly what you put as a subject. Who memories email addresses these days?? This is a nightmare. I bet I’ve got a number of important emails that I can’t access. There has to be a better system than this. If I set up a new account I’m going to lose a whole load of contacts. It’s driving me mad!!
Meanwhile, out in Coronaland we have the same bunch of denials.
Partygate – he did nothing wrong – despite the police fining everybody for attending multiple parties at his own flat and garden. He knew nothing about them despite the fact that he was there. All covid rules were obeyed – despite the fact that they weren’t and people are being fined.
What a liar!!
He refuses to accept responsibility or resign!
What a dishonourable clown!
There are no different rules for them than there are for us – despite the fact that there obviously are!
Arrogant overprivileged twat!!
It’s the same in the States. One new senator was describing how he was invited by the cocaine-snorting republican senators to attend sex orgies. It seems that the more righteous and morally indignant you appear the more morally corrupt you really are. It’s the hypocrisy that gets me – not the cocaine or sex. The Profumo affair should have told us all we need to know. Epstein and Prince Andrew should leave us in no doubt. These prim prudish, hard-hitting politicians and aristocracy are really into their sex and drugs. They make laws for us not them. They say one thing and do another!! Trump was the classic example – a more immoral man would be hard to find.
What is wrong with people believing in these creeps??
I noticed that Nigel Farage was due to make £15.7 million out of his shares in a Green Company. These people are utterly beyond contempt. They lie, abuse and exploit. How much has Farage taken from the Russians to get Brexit done? How much did he and Rees-Mogg make out of Brexit?? How much will Johnson walk away with?? Trump is reputed to have made $1.6 billion out of his presidency.
It’s the same the whole world over, It’s the poor what gets the blame, It’s the rich what gets the pleasure, Isn’t it a blooming shame?
These are people who tell they are honest and they represent our interests!! They lie!!
The whole political system is corrupt!! The strings are being pulled by the obscenely rich. The promises, lobbying, donations, bungs, revolving doors and backhanders are beyond corrupt.
The rich get richer and the poor get poorer. And the poor vote for those exploiting them!
The level of inequality under the Tories has grown and grown. It’s obscene. These people have no sense of justice and no conscience. They are profiteering in death. Brexit, Covid, Ukraine – they don’t care – anything to make a profit.
The whole establishment is rotten to the core!
The media is controlled and has become blatant propaganda.
I’m going back to reading my book in a minute.
Meanwhile, scum like Putin, who has been oppressing, suppressing, threatening and controlling, while skimming off billions for himself, is the epitome of a tyrant. Someone both Trump and Johnson admired. If they had their way they’d emulate too! They like oppression, suppression and lies.
So how’s the war going? We don’t know. We get tales of Russian soldiers crying, shooting their officers, sabotaging their equipment, shooting themselves in the leg and the next minute they are callously killing civilians and flattening cities. The Russian population, China, India and Brazil think it’s all NATO’s fault.
War is obscene.
The first casualty is always the truth.
We have Russian planes, equipped with nuclear missiles, flying into Swedish airspace. What’s that about?
Are we on the brink of nuclear war? Would that put the world cup in jeopardy?? Surely Strictly would still take place?
Of course, there’s not a murmur about the Russian money that has poured into the Tory Party; the Russian involvement in Brexit and funding of the Brexit Party, Boris Johnson’s partying or tennis matches with Oligarchs or him personally overturning security concerns to put Lebedev into the House of Lords. None of that’s important!
Meanwhile, in the nonexistent pandemic there were another 74,720 new cases yesterday with 192 and hospital cases up by 2,200. It’s OK the removal of restrictions was red meat to the gullible; the Big Dog Turd is secure!!
Good heavens!! How long can this inept clown struggle on?? He’ll be redecorating his gaffe next with diamond-studded carpets, solid gold doors and emerald windows. (Just like Putin’s palace!)
Horrible, cold and wet. Bring on Summer. I’m hibernating.
This morning I helped a friend publish her book and listened to some Bob Marley. This afternoon I’m going to put some wood on the fire and sit and read!! It feels more like winter!! I’m having a lazy day.
Outside in Coronaland, on the day the MET police started dishing out fines to law-breaking Tories, the Tories were having a big party! You couldn’t write it, could you?? This was a big thank you from the Big Dog Turd for saving his career so he could continue to become a lot richer!
They think we are all morons. They are right, we are! We allow these elite multimillionaires to keep conning us. I give up!!
So, the big question is: do we all just carry on as usual? As if nothing has happened?
The fact that fines have been issued tells us that laws have been broken. Has Johnson himself been given one? We are not being told! Does that matter? No!
On more than one occasion Johnson categorically stated to parliament and to the public that there were no parties and all covid rules were followed. We now know that not only were there many parties, and covid rules were blatantly not followed, but Johnson attended a number of them. So we have categorical proof that Johnson deliberately lied.
So, is it now considered alright for a Prime Minister to lie to parliament? Is it alright for him to lie to us?
Lying is now considered trivial.
Have we ever had a Prime Minister who is guilty of perennial lying and law-breaking?
It leaves one asking the question of what does it now take to get a resignation? We’ve had Johnson and his Ministers brazening it out through lying, law-breaking, sleazy second jobs, bullying staff, illegal lobbying, illegal bungs (in the form of donations, cash for peerages, cash for secret meetings, illegal VIP tendering, mismanagement of billions of pounds of public money and eye-watering incompetence.
Whereas a short while ago MPs were jailed for fiddling expenses – which seems to me to be trivial in comparison to the level of corruption we have seen in this government.
If Johnson had a shred of honour he would resign. He is a law-breaking liar! He is still denying criminality!! What a dishonourable twerp!!
If we look at the history of the government its record is shocking. It has been a twelve-year application of austerity for the poor and public servants while the bankers and wealthy have never had it so good.
I find it shocking that these Tories continue to pretend to be running the country for the benefit of all of us when in reality they are blatantly running it for the benefit of the wealthy.
They successfully hid the dire consequences of Brexit with covid. They are now hiding their incompetent law-breaking handling of covid behind the Ukrainian war.
We now have a massive cost of living crisis which is a direct result of their policies and they are telling us it is the result of global changes.
It isn’t.
Brexit is costing us £37 billion a year. They squandered £50 billion in illegally doshing out cash to their chums and bringing in useless, hugely expensive schemes such as Test and Trace and Covid Apps (which again put huge amounts of money to their friends and slimy brokers).
They are allowing power companies and oil companies to make tens of billions of pounds of excess profits.
They allow their MPs to continue earning vast sums for dubious lobbying and lucrative advisory roles. The role of running the country is considered by Tories as a secondary role. Making huge sums of money is their raison d’etre.
They have cut the NHS, Education and Public Servants to the bone and deliberately frozen their wages – deliberately creating poverty.
They have cut benefits for those at the bottom of the rung who most need it.
They have deliberately raised taxes and National Insurance that will hit the poor (at a time when tax loopholes allow those earning millions to avoid paying any taxes).
This cost of living crisis is a direct result of Tory policies. They do it deliberately. It is what the Tory Party was formed to do.
The Partygate lies are fundamental. It shows quite clearly that they really do believe that they are better than the rest of us. They do not have to follow the same rules as we do. They are above the law. They arrogantly feel superior and treat us like gullible fools.
The sad thing is that they are getting away with this!! They really do need locking up!!
Turning attention to the Covid pandemic that no longer exists (no more testing – much harder to get stats – no accurate stats) we find that there were another 81,280 new cases yesterday, hospital admission was up again and the deaths zoomed up to 304.
The great news is that the lying, lawbreaking Big Dog Turd is still your master! Doff your caps!!
A cold miserable day in Yorkshire – overcast and dull. We had friends round so with the fire lit it was cosy. The heat of conversation filled the room. I trust everybody noticed how much the whole world has improved?
I didn’t have time for my customary walk though I did have time to listen to a little Yardbirds to buck myself up!! Jeff Beck was a monster!!
Meanwhile, out in Coronaland, the fiasco continues. It seems the clown wants to commit a mere £100 billion on setting up 7 nuclear power stations but Sunak is not so keen so there is a nuclear conflagration in Downing Street.
They are nuts. We don’t need nuclear with all the risks and dangers, the inability to store the waste. I think we’ve seen the dangers in Japan and Chernobyl, Three Mile Island and Windscale. We’ve also seen in the Ukrainian war what a target they present for lunatic invaders. It’s like providing them with a nuclear bomb on your doorstep!! No. The obvious way to go to create energy security is:
Bring in planning laws to make all new houses energy efficient – proper insulation, triple glazing, heat pumps, solar panels, heat retrieval systems on all waste water.
Retrofit all housing with energy conservation as above (as much as possible).
Bring in massive solar energy and onshore/offshore windfarms schemes.
Build the tidal barrier schemes in Swansea, Hull, Ipswich and Bridgewater (predictable and regular).
Develop wave energy schemes (not so intermittent as solar and wind).
What we would have is a country free of oil, coal and gas, more less polluting and environmentally friendly and a scheme that would make us energy independent. Much cheaper and less polluting than nuclear. What’s not to like.
We now come to the rub on Partygate as the MET issued their fines to 150 people. They are not saying who to. That’s up to the individuals concerned to reveal they’ve been fined. That’s like asking a known liar to tell the truth.
As these fines have been issued it clearly demonstrates that these parties took place and hence Boris Johnson clearly lied to both the public and the House of Commons – not once but on a number of occasions.
This is not a matter of whether law-breaking took place. It is not a matter of the degree of law-breaking. It is not even about whether the Tories were being highly arrogant and believing there was one rule for us and another for them – that they were exempt from the very laws they made. This is far more important than any of those things. This is about the trustworthiness of the Prime Minister. A Prime Minister who lies and has no honour is not someone who can be trusted to run this country!
This is even more pertinent when it has to be taken into account that this dishonourable man has a long history of telling lies and behaving in a dishonourable, even illegal manner.
We have seen this cavalier attitude in the numerous lies during Brexit (over incredibly important matters such as the Northern Ireland situation and the ridiculous untrue claims on the side of his bus), during the proroguing of Parliament, through the sleaze involving donations to his redecoration, through the Russian connections to his party (and himself?), through his personal relationships and past jobs. The man is a dishonest perennial liar.
Not only that, but he has shown himself to be lazy, not up to speed and totally incompetent which has proved disastrous to so many during covid and to people such as Nazanin.
This man is totally unfit to hold any office – let alone the highest office in the land.
We now have this lying, lawbreaking, dishevelled clown as a leader at a time when we are being threatened with nuclear annihilation. Do we really think that a man who is widely seen as a joke by the rest of the world is capable of dealing with a cynical tyrant such as Putin? He’s likely to put his foot in it again and spark World War Three. Then he’d try and blame it on someone else!
If only the Tory Party had more integrity – but then they have been taken over by a greedy bunch of nationalist extremists spouting Trumpian populism!!
Heaven help us!!!
Meanwhile, plonker Rees-Mogg, who personally made millions out of Brexit, claims that there is no evidence of Brexit having damaged the economy – despite it costing us an estimated £37 billion a year!!
Rishi Sunak, one of the richest people in Britain, is still allowing the Oil Companies to walk away with record bonanzas of billions of pounds while the poorest in the country panic and all of us pick up the bill. He says he’ll look again in October for all those who haven’t frozen, starved or topped themselves. Then he’ll probable see if he can’t squeeze a little bit more out of them to give to the bankers. Seemingly the denizens of the Cayman Islands have a greater need than the ungrateful poor over here. Besides, no matter what the Tories do the people still vote for them!! They just direct the Express, Mail, Sun, Telegraph, Times and BBC to tell them what to believe! Easy!!
Now for attention to the pandemic that has mysteriously ceased to exist. No news coverage. No testing. No restrictions. But we are far from no cases or deaths!! Despite operation Save the Big Dog Turd we are in a rapidly worsening situation. Yesterday there were 215,000 new cases with 218 deaths. Hospital entries have gone up to 17,354.
But this is no longer of any significance. We are free!! Big Dog Turd has been saved!! The removal of restrictions was red meat to the gullible!! Hoooraaaayyy!!!!
The emergence of two new strains is nothing to worry about!!
The threat of nuclear war is nothing to worry about!!
The hugely rising cost of fuel, energy, food and goods is nothing to worry about!!
The rising inflation and stagnating wages is nothing to worry about!!
Everything is hunk dory in Big Dog Turd Land!! He is safe!! Putin and his Russian friends have saved his bacon!!
Stay safe!! We’re in Global Britain!! World-Beating!! THe clown has another oven-ready plan!!
A fraught day today. I had to go into Hull to see a surgeon about my back. I sneezed while putting a pile of plates into a low cupboard and herniated two discs. They haven’t healed and over the last two years, I’ve been having problems resulting in a meeting with the neurologist. (For all my American followers – all completely free, speedy and thorough – doctor’s checks – MRI scan and possible surgery – all free).
The consultant was really thorough – full physical check, reflexes and questioning. It appears that surgery is not necessary……. yet!! Aaaahh the ageing process – what a pain!! Never thought I’d get this old but now I’m here I find there is still much to do and appreciate. I haven’t reached the point where I’m bored with it!! Here’s to life in a wondrous universe!! Long may it continue!!
Unfortunately, the train was cancelled (I wish we’d voted Corbyn in and nationalised the bloody railways!!) so I had to rush home and drive in. Made me late for my appointment but he still saw me. He was a very friendly Pakistani doctor – brilliant and thorough. So much for Brexit and xenophobia. We’ve driven out lots of expert help just like this guy. Madness. Stuff your hostile environment and isolation!
I got home and have been listening to some Fugs and writing some poems. Usual crap!!
Meanwhile, out in Coronaland, Putin is playing his nuclear card, trying to keep the world at bay while he uses his barbaric power to batter Ukraine into submission. The world seems a far more dangerous place. The sooner the Russian people wake up to the propaganda they are being fed, the better.
Mind you, the sooner the UK and US people wake u[p to the propaganda they are being fed the better. Trump was a master at lies and fake news and Johnson’s much the same (on a smaller scale). How can these wealthy, uncaring useless pillocks convince poor people that they understand their problems is utterly beyond me. This pair of pillocks (along with Putin, Erdogan, Oban, Bolsonaro and the other potential despots) are using their power to exploit and rip us all off. They are a populist bunch of useless self-servers. What hope is there??
What a world we are creating!!!
At least Putin has exposed the whole corrupt nature of how power and greed works!!
Putin is sending the ethnic minorities and conscripts into the front line as cannon fodder. He doesn’t give a shit. It’s all about him.
We have Johnson posing and seeking out photo ops, hoping that it will deflect from his law-breaking, lying and incompetence (which, sadly seems to be working with the segment of morons who are taken in by it).
The war – I wonder just how this is going to end:
a negotiated settlement with Russian troops withdrawing? (Only if Ukraine continues to inflict huge losses on the Russians).
A negotiated settlement with Ukraine promising to stay neutral and give up the Donbas and Crimea.
Ukraine kicking the Russians out.
Russia taking the whole of Ukraine through sheer force.
A Third Word War.
Nuclear destruction.
Russia taking half of Ukraine and forcing a split.
All up for grabs in this horrendous war. Putin has already lost. He has demonstrated that his army is a joke. The yes-man (from fear) has provided him with misinformation and corruoption has undermined his army as a fighting force (along with a lack of morale). He’ll probably pursue it as far as he can and hope that the West doesn’t call his nuclear bluff.
As for Biden – he’s demonstrated that he’s too old for this. His heart is in the right place but he’s making too many gaffes. We need someone younger and more competent. Though, thank heavens that we don’t have Putin-loving Trump! They’d be setting up a coalition with Kim Yong-Un to take over the whole world!! Joint tyrantship!!
I notice that both Trump and Johnson, who have lots of relationships with Putin and the Oligarchs, are trying to distance themselves. Both have millions of pounds involved. I notice the Tory Party isn’t keen on paying back the millions they have taken in from Putin and his mob. Corruption speaks loudly to me!!
These populists have been using Putin as a role model!!
So, back to the pandemic that no longer exists – Big Dog Turd is still pretending to be Churchill, being snubbed by the rest of the world and widely seen as a shambling clown, a joke, but (despite Partygate, lies, incompetence and stupidity) is still in power!! Incredibly about a third of the country still think this ridiculous twerp is doing a good job!! Just shows!!
Right now, in between posing for photo ops in various costumes, our leader is currently hiding in a fridge in order to avoid being asked embarrassing questions. Mind you, the media (controlled by the Tories) are not likely to press him too hard in case it ends up with the Tories out of office. They wouldn’t want that, would they?
Starmer is not doing a job! They are getting away with murder.
Yesterday there were a staggering 215,001 new cases, with deaths – 212 – up 27%!! Hospital patients were up 27%. We’re running at a million cases a week! There are two new variants!! Yippeee! We’ve beaten covid!! Hooray for the clown!!
Fabulous day in Yorkshire. We went for a long walk through the dales (Horse Dale, Harper Dale and Holm Dale) to Huggate for a nice pub meal and pint. Sat out in the sunshine under blue skies!! Could just do with six months of this to recharge the batteries! I don’t like the cold!!
Meanwhile, out in Coronaland, our invisible clown has kept his head down for weeks and thinks that everything has magically disappeared. Partygate is a thing of the past. Russiangate never got off the ground. He might be in for a bit of a shock. The MET is widening it’s investigation. It seems they think that there has been some lying.
I know! Hard to believe!! Tories lying. Johnson lying. Who would possibly have thought it?
It is quite likely that Johnson might find himself the first PM in history to be hauled in for formal questioning for criminal acts. That’d be a first. Then he could find himself fined and with a criminal conviction. He could even be done for lying to the police!!!
This whole business might blow up in his face – not only the MET police action but then Sue Gray report and I bet all the Russian connections and donations will come back up. Partying all night with Lebedev and giving him a peerage against the advice of the Home Office.
This could and should blow up big time!!
Rees-Mogg comes out with his usual crap that it is trivial. Trivial it isn’t. When a Prime Minister cannot be trusted and has deliberately lied to the public and the House that is serious stuff. We have to have a leader we can trust. This dishevelled clown has a long long history of making things up and lying. It’s in his DNA. In a time of war, when we are being threatened with nuclear annihilation we need a leader we can trust. I wouldn’t trust Johnson to serve fish and chips at Greasy Joes’s. He’d be more greasy than the chips!
We’ll see.
It makes me feel ashamed to see this lying chancer looking like a lost tramp at the NATO meeting representing us. He’d look more at home at a hobo convention. It’s unbelievable, his clothes must cost a fortune yet he looks a complete shambling wreck like a down-and-out who’s been dragged through a hundred mean hedges.
As for Global Britain – what a joke! We’re now the global laughing stock!
I had to laugh!! What were we promised after Brexit? – Fabulous deals with the rest of the world!! What have we got two years later?? – Lousy deals with hardly anyone!! They were crowing today about a fabulous deal with Morrocco!! Morrocco – I mean, hardly the global supernation, hardly what we were promised!!
It’s been lies and crap from beginning to end!! All talk!! World-beating lies!! Oven-ready shyte!!
Nothing the guy has promised has worked. If the NHS hadn’t come through with vaccination his goose would have been cooked long ago!
Let’s just hope that NATO doesn’t allow him anywhere near Putin. He’d do a Nazanine and have us all fried in a nuclear holocaust.
Speaking of which – Putin is having his arse kicked!! He’s got a new cunning plan and it’s not running over his Generals with tanks – he lets his soldiers do that – but it might catch on! I can see the Generals all trussed up on Red Square and Putin riding over them in one of his tanks – if he still has any and if he can find one working.
His plan is to withdraw and pretend that he was only going for the Donbas after all. He’s as big a liar as Johnson!!
Speaking of Covid. The operation to save Big Dog Turd continues. It’s the weekend and they are making it hard to test but they are still reporting 77,673 new cases yesterday with another 172 deaths. Hospital admissions are up 17%.
The Tories want us to forget all about it. Big Dog Turd has saved us from Covid!!! The pandemic is over!! Chuck out all the restrictions!! Let’s have a Freedom Day!! That’ll save the smelly mutt!
Except it is far from over. There are new variants popping up because they have let it rip!
The government says ‘Don’t PANIC!’ ‘What’s a few hundred deaths between friends?? NHS overwhelmed? Nonsense!! New wicked variants!! Who cares!! Big Dog is safe!! We’re closing the gap in the polls!! The people are more stupid than anyone could imagine!!’
The scientists are saying: ‘DO SOMETHING!!!’
Ha, what do they know? They’re only experts!! Get the bleach out and turn on the UV!! You’ll be alright!! You might die but at least your death will be in a good cause – So that Johnson can continue lying and redecorating his gaffe with million-pound wallpaper!!
