Wow, I wonder if these people have any specific medical technology companies in mind. Ones that have made donations to the Labour Party, for example, to replace the cash they’d once have got voluntarily from members of the public.

Systems that are great at turning public goods into vast sums of money for the world’s wealthiest people but can barely put in a new railway line, and that’s just accepted as normal and natural because what, are we going to crack down on economic freedom like commies or something

That is: the geniuses who brought us the Afghanistan and Iraq wars, the financial crisis, austerity, Brexit, Johnson, the fucked pandemic response and the cost of living disaster, strongly believe that the source of the problem is that people like them don’t have enough control.

Anyway, the grand neoliberalism bargain was that you’d give up job security in exchange for cheap food, toys and baubles plus increasing social liberalism, and I notice this has now become “Give up job security in exchange for LOL fuck you”.

Like, I look at this shit and I do not think “What a scoop for our brave journalists”. I think, governance of this country is an open fraud upon the public in which the country’s leading journalists are unashamedly complicit.

You might wonder which of these men you should side with in this argument and the answer is that both are absurd frauds pantomiming accountability, and they will be best pals again the second they need to unite against you.

Britain is a decent country and its people - most of them - have done nothing to deserve the ruin visited upon us since 2008. Our political class and national press, on the other hand, are a mix of utterly bleak, selfish, cynical swine and clueless star-fuckers. So, here we are.

Comedians shouldn't be allowed on politics shows, which are meant for the serious interrogation of politicians by heavyweight intellects – like "would Labour nationalise sausages?" and "isn't this free broadband policy just the kind of thing Stalin would do?"

Surely they wouldn’t allow flammable cladding on high rises. Surely they know Brexit will hammer business. Surely they wouldn’t try to let a deadly virus they know kills the old and sick let rip for herd immunity. Surely they wouldn’t fill rivers with shit. Surely they wouldn’t

The Times, 2019: Boris Johnson has the charisma, energy, intelligence and determination required to lead the Conservative Party, Get Brexit Done and crush the traitorous socialists

It may not be a good look for private firms to simply loot the utilities with no investment until they blow up but have you considered that when they do, these people will still have taken all that money and they will be fine, so they don’t give a fuck.

The lesson here isn’t “Putin plays the Tory party”. It is “Politics is not real, MPs and the press are wholly unserious, the daily papers and broadcasts are chock-full of vexatious drivel and everyone involved routinely insults the public”.

To be fair to Sir Keir, he does understand that the maximum role he’ll be permitted in politics is tidying up a little so that he can eventually hand control of a less catastrophically crumbling nation back to the aristocracy, ahead of a fresh round of looting. He isn’t wrong.
