Country for Sale


Conservative Prime Ministers have led Britain since 2010. During that time, the Party’s signature policy has been a program of austerity that has protected the country’s rich at an immense human cost. Crime has risen, schools have suffered, poverty and wealth inequality are increasing. Patients arriving in the emergency rooms of the NHS are facing the longest waiting times since 2004. Average wages in Britain are yet to recover to their level before the financial crisis, which was NOT caused by Labour, but a global (clue) meltdown following fraud in the USA. And that’s before you even get to the soul-grinding shit show that is Brexit, which has been a Tory production from start to finish.

Boris Johnson and his cronies are now telling us they will pour money into public services - services they are ideologically opposed to in the pursuit of small government and tax breaks for the wealthy. As an aside, have you noticed how Johnson wants Corbyn judged by his past, but himself by his present.

On top of that we have revelations that, in pursuit of a US trade deal (in which we are at a natural strategic disadvantage), the British government has, until recently and for 2 years. been conducting high-level negotiations with the US (by none other than Liam Fox) which favours expending patents on medicines to increase profits, as well as lowering food standards, such as labelling - labelling essential to those with certain conditions, such as diabetes. US Congress is on record that if these conditions are not met, the UK can wave goodbye to a US/UK trade deal, a cornerstone of Boris' Brexit strategy of salvation. As another aside, has anyone noticed that if the UK were to drop all tariffs on EU imports post Brexit in the interests of keeping UK manufacturing that relies on EU products going then, under WTO rules, the USA will also have zero tariffs and not require a Free Trade Agreement, as if you apply zero tariffs to one nation, you must apply them to all.

Apologists for the Tory party are rubbishing the whistle-blown document, ignorant of the fact that it matches a heavily redacted document released to Global Justice under the Freedom of Information Act, but without the black pen marks.


Boris, a proven serial liar, is telling us this is not true. Can you imagine Boris saying; "Yes, I lied about the 40 hospitals and the 50000 nurses and the £350m a week and no border in the Irish Sea and October 31st and prorogation and Jennifer Arcuri and everything I’ve ever written or said, but you can definitely trust me that the NHS is not for sale." No, me neither.

That's Boris Piccaninny Watermelon Letterbox Cake Bumboys Vampires Haircut Wall-Spaffer Spunk-Burster Fuck-Business Fuck-The-Families Get-Off-My-Fucking-Laptop Girly-Swot Big-Girl’s-Blouse Chicken-Frit Hulk-Smash Noseringed-Crusties Death-Humbug Technology-Lessons Surrender-Bullshit French-Turds Get-Stuffed Johnson - as Stuart Lee called him last Sunday.

I'm reminded of a line from 1984; “The party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command." How anyone with a moral compass or a shred of respect for truth can vote to have this charlatan as PM is a mystery.
