If you haven't noticed the subterfuge is being ramped up at the moment. Deflection and whataboutery is everywhere. I am not dismissing this as an issue but surely you will have noticed the increase in culture war rhetoric over the last few days especially around the issues of who has a cock and what having a cock means. There is also an increase in shouting about eco protestors, these issues are designed to change the narrative from Partygate. The RW media are in full cry about issues they want you to consider as important, not the issues you think are important. Its brainwashing propaganda on a massive scale all designed to keep Johnson out of the firing line.
Attacks on Angela Rayner are being ramped up, many of which are misogynistic bullshit aimed at discrediting her because she is seen as a threat to Johnson. Some of the stuff i have seen about her makes the stuff wrote about Diane Abbot look tame.
Sunak fucked up his spring statement, but the coverage of it is hardly dismissive, Patel is pushing through harmful reforms, Raab is trying to rid us of our rights and as a result we are becoming one of the most authoritarian countries in the western world. Amnesty international have been scathing about the UKs response to restrict the rights of refugees , it has flagged up Patel's nationality and borders act as being seriously concerning for human rights. Amnesty International's Sacha Deshmukh said " The UK cannot credibly campion human rights internationally if it is undermining them at home" That impacts any stance we take on Ukraine.
All the while we have 20 Tory MPs facing fines for breaking the law, a PM who lied to parliament and probably broke the law, we have an energy crisis, a cost of living crisis, inflation rising, debt increasing, fire and rehire happening more and more, Fox's mints being the latest to use this abhorrent practice. Wee have 2 million people expecting to be in serious financial trouble by autumn as we endure the biggest fall in living standards in history.
But look somebody has a cock. There is even a thread about it in odd topic, that is how the subterfuge has hit home.
