Ignore the referendum for now. Look at the UK finances and his policies. He robbed us blind and then had the balls to lobby Johnson for more.
On the referendum your query proves my point. That whole thing drove a massive wedge into the UK population that was flooded by the right wing press being driven by individuals looking to capatilise on the chaos. From his decision designed to address an internal party problem we got a divided society, Farage, and Johnson. They don’t exist without lighting that fuse. We wouldn’t be having this conversation.
Would this conversation had happened if Blair had delivered 20 years plus ago? And more to the point would it have been accepted if the result was the same ?
Sorry but Brexit is a result of lies by politicians to the public about EU membership from the very beginning of we are joining only as a trading nation , and when people realised that basically they were lied to resentment seeped in for many, and yet the fact that membership was built on a lie is fine with many, and just gloss over it and blame any mess on Boris.
Boris for all his faults did deliver in some ways on what other have said they would do but have lied and failed to do, because they wanted to be superstars for the elitist EU.
While I think Johnson is the worst ‘human’ of the lot of them, I personally agree that Blair was the worst in terms of directly making my life worse with the introduction of tuition fees and the massive accelerstion in the increase in housing prices.
Throw in the Iraq war and it was a fairly shit time.
But staying till Autumn? Suppose it’ll take him that long to clean the stains of booze, food, parties and cum. Plus stripping that wallpaper for ebay. Just clear off you oaf.
Thatcher will never have anything like a fair assessment here, understandably so. But it can’t be denied that she was an accomplished politician, insanely hard working, fearless and feared, well respected and a loving wife and parent. Boris (as a human being) isn’t fit to polish her grave. What she did with these talents is obviously more than contentious but as a country leader, very much the iron lady. Ask Argentina.
And a further point on this which just occurred to me. She achieved a political career and became PM in an era when she was given not a scrap of preferable treatment for her sex. She’d have faced massive and blatant discrimination from everybody pretty much. In those days, women might have gone to work but the barriers were huge. Took till May for another lady to do it in a totally different climate.
I despise Thatcher but she was capable. Capable of extreme cruelty and malice but still capable. However, I still think that within that malice that she thought what she was doing was somehow for the benefit of the country. Johnson is a cretin backed by thieves. He has caused a huge amount of damage to the country with no obvious benefits to it. Clearly there have been numerous benefits to his financial backers but that has been at a cost to everyone else.
Personally, I cheered when Thatcher died. I would like to see Johnson die in prison.
