Boris Johnson’s premiership, what with holidays, proroguing and just general absenteeism is not so much Hide & Seek as Hidden & Weak…
It’s too disgusting even by Johnsons’ low, low standards. Illegally
cancelling Parliament last year. Preparing to hide behind a previously unknown
post of US style press secretary is not enough. Hiding behind his girlfriend
when the excuses start coming out re the exit of Dominic Cummings – while
convenient for a gullible press is just crap. But now he’s hiding from reality
and handy enough – the pandemic he has failed and failed and failed to manage
has provided him with the cover just as time runs out. Yes, as the “oven ready”
Brexit ‘deal’ turns to a blackened crisp before our eyes, the shyster
extraordinaire is away and self-isolating because he appears, like Dominic
Cummings, not to have followed his own government's guidelines.
Maybe he is as aware as any that the populist bubble is well
and truly deflating. Trump hid behind inept lawyers like Rudy Giuliani when he
lost the US election. Johnson is in hiding again (sorry – self isolating) now
that we have less than a week to come up with a deal in time to be ratified by
the EU. Will Bolsonaro be the next lying, womanising, populist, covid-disastrous
leader to head for the Duvet of Failure now that he has done badly in local
elections?
You couldn’t make it up (making things up is – of course –
Johnson’s specialty).
Cumming’s has departed and good but it is not the shock the
media says it is nor is it – as The Telegraph tried to spin it – evidence of Johnson’s
masterful leadership. Here’s what I said about a Cummings departure in post 357 August 4th 2020
I do not dispute that Cummings was the cynical brain behind
Johnson’s election and has done the leg work since but the idea that he was not
expendable to a lifelong member of the Tory club was preposterous. How convenient, now that it’s time to change gear in the light of the White House loony bin
being cleared out, for the lunatics and incompetents in Westminster to have Slender Man to hang out to dry for a gullible public and sluggish media.
It’ so predictable that if it weren’t for the fact Johnson’s
delusions, vacuity and low grade grubby corruption and his government’s gross
incompetence, cronyism and dishonesty is actually costing lives, it would be
boring…
But never mind. Never mind the Brexit we have because the
likes of Johnsons made EU bashing a personal hobby for decades. Never mind that
the lies that brought us the 2016 result (and the fear of Farage) are now
playing out during a pandemic – which should have seen a reverse of this
self-harming nonsense. Never mind that at the start of ‘all this’ Johnson was
too busy trying to hide the fact that the latest daughter/partner was pregnant
while he shuffled to get rid of the wife in remission from Cancer. Never mind
all that. He will not clear up the mess and – like the spoiled brat he truly is,
he is in hiding now that there is less than one week to find a settlement
with the EU in time for ratification. Cummings and Johnson have dropped their
turd pile and now they are going to sit back and watch the mess spread and stink
and rot Britain.
Rat-ification – new meaning – what Boris Johnson does.
