Sunday 9th January the day we reached peak #torybrexit lunacy


https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/picture/2022/jan/08/nightmare-on-downing-street-cartoon

Saw a great comment in the comment section which in part said...

Not taking responsibility for their actions' is one of the 20 personality traits listed on the psychopath test. Johnson also displays most of the others, as do several other leading Tories.... Basically psychopaths are the ultimate in selfishness and only care about themselves and nothing for the harm their actions may do to others.

In the same way that you don't want a paedophile in charge of a class of kids you don't want a psychopath in a position of power over other people.

And we are reaping what the Brexit lunacy has sown...




Sunday 9th January the day we reached peak #torybrexit lunacy. Ending free tests, the oil industry helping with rules, Truss threatening Article 16, and the authoritarian numpty invoking ‘the will of the people’ again. It’s like living in a dystopian nightmare.


They need to do one now. It is too much. It is enough. The cherry on the icing... 150,000 deaths and they are going to stop free testing kits, at a time of growing inflation and tax hikes - it is almost like they don't care about infection rates among those who would struggle to pay for regular testing. It is almost like they don't care about essential workers being put at risk from the virus. Say it isn't so?!?!? Heh.

.....they find new depths to plumb. The only way to introduce a note of sanity into government proceedings is to vote the Tories out.
