Boris Johnson in Yorkshire
We'll ignore the'Tosh and
piffle' comment because I don't speak 19th century English, not to mention the
use of 'sung' instead of 'sang' Poor show, Eton.
Let's ask for a definition
of a few other comments:
- 'a few months of
hardship'. Who will suffer this and what will it consist of? David Lammy's
whole point is that it will be the people least able to afford hardship who
will suffer most.
- 'Once proud Britons'. You
just know what's coming next: The War. The bravery of the people - not people
like Winnington-Havers or people like you and I who weren't alive at the time -
but the poorest people in the UK at the time: in London, Coventry, Liverpool,
Clydebank and Glasgow.
- 'rationed suet'. What the
hell is suet rationed or otherwise? Is that the level of food supply we can
expect from brexit?
The Great British state has
rapidly gone to hell in a handcart thanks to Johnson and his pal Dominic
Cumming and this week has been a joy to watch on social media and in the
newspapers. I'm thrilled to say that we Scots have been up there playing our
part. I can't imagine what kind of hate mail Joanna Cherry and Tommy Sheppard
have been getting, but some of the twitter comments have been amazing:
"The 3 judges at the
Court of Session" are stooges of the SNP. O yeah? You've obviously never
met a Scottish lawyer.
" We should stop
subsiding Scotland and set them loose." Okay. If you say so. There's
page after page of this nonsense.
And now
we have Yorkshire people telling Johnson to get back to parliament and sort all
this out. However, I'll let the Yorkshire people into a secret: he can't
sort it out. He doesn't know how. He failed to answer the Court of Session in
Edinburgh and that has landed him in a whole world of trouble. Next week is
going to be interesting...European Court anyone?
