My scurrilous daily rants about the inept government response to Covid, their lies, propaganda, sleaze and corruption along with my feelings, walks and music throughout lockdown.
A unique time. A powerful insight.
This was my life during Covid!!
So much for managing the Economy! So much for oven-ready deals! So much for taking back control! So much for stopping immigration! So much for destroying the public services! So much for making the richer richer and the poor poorer!
Dire! Dire! Dire! Dire!
Inflation! Cost of Living! Energy costs! Food Prices! Record profits for the energy companies! Record profits for bosses!
Taken for fools!
Brexit disaster!
Mind you I wasn’t the chancellor of the exchequer handling the tax for the entire country and in the entire course of my forty-year working life I haven’t got close to a sum total of £5 million. My entire earnings of a lifetime in education come to a quarter of what Zahawi tried to fiddle!!
What the hell are these Tory Ministers earning?? What sort of world do these Eton boys live in?
Then Johnson with an £800,000 loan? What the hell is that about? Then pulling in millions from speaking, a fortune from newspaper articles and a projected £3,500,000 from his memoirs.
How on earth can they relate to a nurse, teacher or train driver? No wonder they see us a plebby scum.
I thought I might start a daily diary of the sleaze, corrupt exploits of this scummy government:
YESTERDAY
There’s probably loads more we don’t know about – Greenswill, Partygate, Brexit lies, Profiteering,VIP lanes, Russian connections,Tractor porn, threats, sex romps, wallpaper, illegal donations…… all have their sequels.
They lied to us to get us to vote for Brexit, making a stream of unsubstantiated promises – all of which turned out to be lies.
They personally made millions out of Brexit while we suffer.
Where is the accountability? Why aren’t these liars, who have cost the nation tens of billions, being dragged before the courts and held to account for their lies and profiteering?
They won’t want to be reminded of the sunny uplands shimmering with ripening fruits promised by Mr Rees-Mogg and the rest of the Brexit mob’s false prophets. One of their signature pledges was emblazoned on the side of the chariot that bussed Emperor Johnson – never an Augustus, more of a Caligula – around the realm. You will remember his claim that the subs paid to the EU only had to be redirected to the NHS to transform it into a world-envied health service. Strike one. What we actually have is a collapsing NHS. Another of their boasts was that the UK would “take back control” of its borders. Strike two. Unmanaged migration is not falling, but rising. The most critical promise was that the economy would roar like a liberated lion just as soon as the UK was “unshackled” from the “sclerotic” EU. Strike three. The UK is the sick man of the G7, the only member with an economy that is still smaller than it was before the pandemic. As for that fabled vista of fantastic exporting opportunities for “Global Britain”, businesses are writhing in all the red tape generated by Brexit while the UK has yet to secure a single better trade deal with a significant partner than we had as members of the EU.
How many billions of our money were squandered during Covid and Brexit?? Shady deals, handouts, aps, T&T, PPE. Billions just doshed out to Tory chums. Peeress Mone, with her £29 million of ill-gotten gains is just the tip of a massive sleazeberg of incompetence and outright corruption.
We are, as a country, struggling to pay teachers, nurses, border control staff, ambulance drivers, postal workers and a host of others, a living wage.
We are facing decades of austerity because of a gaping £30 billion hole.
It’s not surprising really. Brexit has knocked our economy for six. Knocked 4% off our GDP.
But more startling is the disgusting sleaze, corruption and incompetence surrounding Covid. The Tories ran a VIP lane giving billions away to their friends (like Peeress Mone and Hancock’s landlord), they ran a Chumocracy putting incompetent Tories into hugely expensive salaries – Like the incompetent Dildo Harding – whose salary is still secret – though hundreds of consultants she employed were paid a £1000 a day. We can only speculate on what Dido was paid.
Let’s dig into the sleazeberg:
£37 billion wasted by Dido Harding on a useless Track and Trace system
£4 billion thrown away on unusable PPE
£4.3 billion written off on fraud (imagine??)
£20 billion written off on unpaid covid loans (£20 fucking billion!! – who the hell was vetting? Who was in charge? Who received all this money? Why aren’t they recovering it?)
£40 million on an app that never saw the light of day (we could have used the European one – but hey – the ERG would rather we all died)
This is probably nowhere near complete. VIP lanes corruption, chumocracy and utter incompetence has cost us – let me see now???? Err, ummm – £65.7 Billion!!!
That’s over twice what we needed to plug the hole. That’s enough to give the nurses, teachers and everyone else a sizeable pay rise!
Oh – I forgot – we can afford to give Tory peeresses £29 million for doing fuck all but we can’t afford to give a nurse £3,000 for risking her life and working round the clock.
That sound like fairness to you? Me neither!!
Sunak is shocked – as if he wasn’t involved!! He’s been part of all this corruption!!
