Echo Chambers Won’t Define Johnson
With everything that is going on at the moment, it is easy to think that Johnson is finished. However, if you get caught up in your own echo chamber, it is easy to imagine that everyone is feeling the same. The reality is, it doesn’t matter what I, or anyone else who despises Johnson, thinks. Parties or no parties, I learnt to dislike Johnson years ago and have never voted for him. The key to his downfall is whether tepid Johnson supporters ...
Johnson Proving to be the Man we Were Warned About!
“Poor old Sue Gray”. We are told to wait for her report into what we all know happened at the Downing Street parties.

The truth is that Chris Whitty and sage had a decent idea where omicron was heading, a few weeks ago. They knew it was going to ...
A Land of Warped Morals

Johnson Running out of Alleys to Run Down and Fridges to Hide In
The problem with pathological liars, is that they eventually run out of alleys to run down and fridges to hide in. Johnson’s bullshit and irresponsible behaviour has nearly gone full circle. Any clarity on Brexit or Covid has long gone. The British people are entering into Covid self-regulation, which in turn, is wrecking any hope the retail leisure industries have of clawing back losses. Those supporters who are still in denial about ...
