This time it’s the UK’s armed forces facing the Johnson reverse-Midas-touch.
We live in a developed country WITH infrastructure
WITH wealth WITH free education and yet somehow we ended up with this random,
rambling posh blob as Prime Minister.
Our latest living nightmare is Johnson’s new big
brain fart with regards the UK military. Already much depleted and globally somewhat
undermined by an arms industry best known for selling murderous weapons to the
Saudi’s so they can bomb the shit out of what remains of Syria.
Now – we are told – Johnson – whose government could
not make a test and trace system work – despite the bill of £37 BILLION (and
counting) wants to ditch soldiers for tech. Drones and all the stuff he
presumably watched on Netflix while he should have been working to prevent an
inexcusable death toll, increasing social division and economic ruin.
America, newly released from the mad grip of the orange blob who Johnson clearly styles himself on politically, has already expressed concern.
To date Johnson’s brain farts include (but are not
limited to) -
· Buying
water cannons to use on the dumb arses who elected him Mayor of London.
· The
failed Garden Bridge (cost £53m).
· A
bridge from Scotland to Ireland over WWII mine beds (a brain fart gaining
strength and presumably one which will further line the pockets of some Tory pals).
· Making
Gavin Williamson Sec. for Education after he embarrassed the UK as Sec for
Defence.
· Making
Priti Patel Home Sec after her corrupt behaviour while Sec for International
Development.
· Making
Raab Foreign Sec after he admitted, when Brexit Sec, that he did not understand
the importance of the Dover to Calais trade route!!! I could go on about
Johnson’s appointments but you get it.
· Racially
insulting Muslim women at a time of international tension and insecurity for
many Muslims.
· Illegally
shutting down Parliament (2019).
· Embarrassingly
reciting a colonial poem in Myanmar – an ex-British colony (2017).
· Letting
his gob run inappropriately re N.Zaghari-Ratcliffe when he was Foreign Sec
helping the young mother to secure more time in an Iranian jail.
· Recently
he announced his need for more nukes – despite Britain being a signatory of the
International Nuclear Non-proliferation Treaty (see last post).
But this one really is the biggest stinkiest brain
fart of all because a. I suspect the
total expenditure, once profiteering for mates is taken into account, will make
the TT&T failure look like a few coins you found down the back of the sofa
and b. Britain’s increasingly
settled international profile as a
senile, deluded old shyster of a mess-up will well and truly solidify…
