The government seen to be doing a u turn should not be seen as them doing the right thing it should be seen as them sorting out another **** up that they should have got right the 1st time
So far Johnson has said that the A level results were " robust and dependable "
Our track and trace system is " world beating"
Our COVID-19 response is a " massive success "
Brexit deal is " oven ready"
All total bollox, when will the media call this snake oil sales man out

Britain Trump.
 
I don't follow USA politics that closely, does Trump have a bunch of complete idiots around him stumbling from cock up to cock up ? Can the people of both these countries be so blind as to what the leaders are doing to us
Trump has a bunch of incompetent, corrupt idiots around him that he has to change constantly.
The only ones that don't are his family and a dodgy, bald advisor.

It's unbelievable isn't it. Trump chooses people in his own image, so he is surrounded by dangerous idiots. Worse than that he falls out with them regularly and he fires them so a new dangerous idiot has to pick up the pieces. Meanwhile the fired cohort often seems to go to gaol.
And still he polls in the low 40%s, so the election is in the balance. His inaction and dithering has probably cost 100,000 lives and he embarrasses himself with lies and nonsense every time he opens his mouth and yet his supporters appear to lap it up like the second coming.
No, it is unfathomable.

Sorry to keep on but we all need show these people as massive ****s for thats what they are,
Today Trump called out the massive surge of COVID-19 in New Zealand.......9 the USA had 45,000
Ok there is a huge population difference but this is him clearly deflecting his incompetence once again
 
So there's a (currently unverified) rumour doing the rounds that De Pfeffel has been informed that somebody wishes to resign their position

That somebody being Carrie Symonds resigning from her role as Stepford Wife

I have surprising personal experience of this. Many years ago I trained a guy in a military trade, something he later claimed to be an expert in. His name is Sebastian Gorka, later Deputy Assistant to the President and alleged military and intelligence analyst. Believe me, what I taught him does not make him an expert! And nobody could have been more shocked when he turned up at the White House. Don't get me wrong, he was not an idiot, but nor was he special in any way. So yes he did get a relevant British military qualification, but that was at the lowest level and as far as I know he attempt the higher levels. Obviously when he later claimed all this knowledge and experience I checked into what he'd been doing to earn it, and cannot say that I am convinced!

The bullshitting, Hungarian Nazi? Another one of Steve Bannon's cockroaches.
 
You've met him as well?

Actually I hardly remember him, he was that unmemorable. But it shows how far you can get in this world on pure bullshit.
It's more his connections and his willingness to be a horrible ****bag, I think.
Worked for Viktor Orban, Steve Bannon and Donald Trump. Competence and morality would be massive issues.
