Selfish it may be, but since there is nothing I can do to change things by thinking about Boris, or politics in general, I'd rather spend my time reading and thinking about things that interest me more. When elections come up, then I'll give it more thought.

One for the movie fans - prompted in part by NS:

“I’ve seen things you people wouldn't believe... my country’s credibility on fire off the shoulder of Raab... I watched Dorries glitter in the dark near the Downing Street Gate. All those moments will be lost in time, like Truss on a map... Time to lie”

(Not mine own - sadly)

I once tried using "chicken" as a password, but was told it must contain a capital so I tried "chickenkiev"
On another occasion, I tried "beefstew", but was told it wasn't stroganoff.

It will only get worse.
   




Don't hold your breath waiting for the liar to bleat an apology.
"for, as long as but a hundred of us remain alive, never will we on any conditions be brought under English rule. It is in truth not for glory, nor riches, nor honours that we are fighting, but for freedom - for that alone, which no honest man gives up but with life itself."

Couldn't disagree with what this chap says.

https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2022/feb/12/lies-lies-and-more-lies-a-government-built-on-lies-is-incapable-of-anything-else

I'm just getting the inkling of a thought about an idea that the government perhaps, doesn't tell the whole truth.

I find this very hard to believe.

Why not he pays the fine and gets on with his job?

Because he lied and lied and lied. While far too many of us died and died and died.

There are other relevant reasons such as the undermining of democracy, but as your post shows an alarmingly simplistic approach I won't confuse you further.

Because he is a self-serving lying fuckwit and it seems that a good chunk of his party are perverse enough to be prepared to ignore this.

His only concern currently is to appease the lunatic fringe in his own party so as to aid his survival, and to do that he will take risks such as deciding to abandon Covid restrictions in England, and seemingly without much in the way of consultation or supporting scientific advice,  for what looks like political rather than public health reasons.

So you think it's ok to lie and lie and lie?

You are ok with the country's reputation being trashed abroad? (Truss was shown up for the ignoramus she is in Russia) You are ok with the lies about Brexit? You are ok with Billions lost to fraud and none of it being traced? You are ok with lying to the Queen? You are ok with energy prices going through the roof and no protection for the weakest in society. France can do it for fuck's sake, so why can't we?

Instead, you'll just wring your hands and say we are anti-Borisers.  (incidentally as you didn't vote for Boris at his ascension to PM I think that means you are an anti-Boriser as well) and look how he treated anti-Borisers in parliament.

You'll say what can I do, even though you know all those things to be true?

Well, write to your MP. Ask for the resignation of Johnson on those grounds. IF enough do it, it will happen.

She didn't say she supported him; she merely predicted what she thinks will happen - how accurately remains to be seen.

She refers to people thinking more should happen for lying to parliament as 'anti-Borisers'. Thst's not just a prediction, is it?
