Johnson the Clown on His Way to a Majority
A week is a long time in politics and it certainly feels like it. What I think I have learnt is that Boris Johnson could eat one of the Queen’s Corgis and get away with it. Perennial fuckwit, Prince Andrew, has been taking all the public rap for being an unsavoury scallywag of high ranking, yet everything has bounced off of Johnson, our delightful new PM.

Corbyn Engulfed in Another Anti Semitic Row!
Jeremy Corbyn has been engulfed in another anti semitic crisis today after it emerged that a Labour Party member admitted to using inappropriate language towards the Jewish community 46 years ago. Willie Eckerslike, a three pounds a month Labour Party member from Skippingdale, Cumbria, confessed to using the term ‘Jew’ when his school friend wouldn’t lend him 10p to buy a school dinner in 1973.

If the Jewish community were predominantly left leaning, Johnson would write articles about them ...

By most sensible accounts, Johnson is the one with the decent lead, so all he had to do is undertake his instructions from Dominic Cummings and he would be ...
Tories Surge Despite the Blows to Their Credibility!
There was a period last week where I thought a lot of people were thinking along the same lines as me. That thought process would be something along the lines of, ‘I am not so sure if Corbyn can deliver his manifesto and whether it will even work but, sod it, I’d rather that than the other option of self-serving populism’. Well, it seems I am wrong, or I think I am wrong anyway; the Labour campaign has been moderate and they have ...
