Attempts to deflect attention to Starmer over the lack of prosecution of Jimmy Saville in 2009 – something that may not have even been his decision – is pathetic. Dorries interview was beyond pathetic. I am surprised Johnson has not got the Met Police checking speed cameras for the last 30 years to see if Starmer ever broke the speed limit.

It is proper that the government looks at all the regulations we have adopted from the EU. However Johnson had a verbal shit storm and came up with a figure of £1 billion. We know where the figure comes from – his fetid imagination. Most of the laws were promoted and voted for by the UK.

A straightforward tax hike. Excuses like its to pay for the NHS is just as much bullshit as the £350 million a week Brexit claim.

Fuel bills also set to soar whilst inflation is over 5%. It seems a total no brainer to me that the energy firms making profits from rising wholesale costs should be taxed. Billionaires who have made billions more should also be taxed. if this causes the self ones to piss off to the Caribbean – so beat – and can they take the whole cabinet with them?

Numbers have doubled back up to over 1000/100000 in Winscombe area. Does this matter? Hospitalisations up 4% – is this significant? Whilst most people continue to wear masks they re no longer compulsory. Is it school based age groups? There are still 24% not booster jabbed and 9% with no jab. And this is in a fairly affluent middle class area with higher a than average older population.

Many questions need to be answered with evidence rather than bluster.

Maybe the police are just covering their own ineptitude? Presumably on duty at 10 Downing Street (and 11) 24/7 they must have seen the ‘gatherings’ sorry ‘illegal gatherings’ and done nothing. If that was due to orders there is a very strong case for a prosecution of dereliction of duty and possibly perverting the course of justice – both of which have maximum life sentences.

We should be afraid – he will stop at nothing to remain PM and diplomacy is not his forte – and even worse he might come back.

The party of financial prudence and capability. £4.2 billion written of by the Chancellor. £500.000 spent on a private plane by Truss. £40 billion spent on track and trace. So they have blown the cover that has been carefully preserved for more than a century. Tax the poor – Nat.Ins. with a spurious link to the NHS, whilst protecting the rich and their dividends.

So, as I suspected, Cressida Dick comes to rescue her hero Johnson. Sue Gay’s report will be redacted of the most egregious facts, and thus become watered down. And then the Met.Police will wait for a few weeks until some other scandal hits the headlines and say they have insufficient evidence other than to issue fixed penalty notices on minions. The Gray report will then be published in full but will be undermined by the the lack of Police Action.

So the government deflects criticism by picking on the unemployed. A safe target. It is interesting that mainly low paid workers get mega angry about ‘scroungers’ whilst ignoring the billion pound tax avoidance of the rich. I guess it is because they see themselves doing 2 jobs whilst others do nothing. What they fail to see is that they could chose to live on social security themselves – but do not as it does not pay enough! Or offer any hope for the future. They also fail to enquire about the circumstances of the unemployment. Are there long term disabilities? Or maybe there are no suitable jobs available.
