It wasn’t gin in a tin and a Mr Kiplings mince pie. It was spin the bottle, cheese and lots of wine, laughing at the general public, putting everyone’s lives at risk, telling lies about it and naked twister.
With governance like that, no wonder we have the highest excess death rate in the whole of Europe and the ONS have had to write a clear statement on their data page which, to me, reads as, this has been a public health disaster, don’t believe the lies.
Twitter is a very angry place right now. People are sharing their complex grief stories, filled with loneliness and despair.
Even if our NHS was the best health care system in the world (which it probably isn’t after all these years of a conservative government’s under-funding) it is still shameful to put all this unnecessary pressure on it, then lie about it and laugh at the people who elect you.
Joke makers are having the time of their lives. Their job couldn’t be easier. Even Ant and Dec are having a go. Rory Brenner tweeted, “If there was a piss up at number 10 last Christmas then it’s unlikely that Boris organised it. Because. Well. You know.”
However, we don’t need comedians when Boris Johnson’s own especially appointed press officer can film her own comedy routine, in such a way that makes us all know that it’s not funny. In fact, it’s seriously nasty.
