Title: Dick of the Year
Post by: Stranger on December 23, 2019, 10:56:58 AM
I see that The Last Leg Dick of the Year (https://twitter.com/Channel4/status/1208159041614049280) (NSFW) award went to Boris Johnson, with Jacob Rees-Mogg in second place.

Also very well deserved, the Dick of the Decade (https://twitter.com/Channel4/status/1208160397259202563) award went to David Cameron with Donald Trump as runner-up.

No one, not even our worst politicians, come close to Trump in deserving that title.

I dunno - Trump hasn't done anything quite as stupid as Cameron's referendum.

Yes Cameron made a very bad mistake, however everything Trump has done is stupid, like threatening to nuke North Korea and the situation for which he has been impeached. He refuses to acknowledge that climate change is more than likely down to human activity. He seems unable to tell the truth, lies pour out of his mouth every time he opens it.

Admitted - I have not checked. But I imagine Dick of the Year goes to someone of whom you would expect otherwise. Trump is constitutionally imbecilic - he has not achieved dickhood, it is his natural condition.

Politics has no shortage of candidates - I'd nominate Matt Hancock, for reasons contained below in the very funny piss-take of him by John Crace.
