The country is currently being run by a man who can at best be described as ‘high functioning autistic’. Oh, not Boris, he’s fairly low-functioning anything, but the man who actually runs the nation at the moment; Dominic Cummings. The man who represents the kind of ‘ultra violet’ end of The ‘Spectrum’. But that’s all fine. Forest Gump had issues and he did ok. But he was an exceptionally nice and pleasant man. Whereas Dominic Cummings is not. Not at all. He’s horrible. Vile. Swears all the time and hurls abuse at everyone. But otherwise is not very nice.

Because the current shit-storm, which has out-shit-stormed all the previous ones, is Dominic’s baby. He is the ‘chief strategist’ and his strategy is modelled on Stalin. My way or the highway. Do as I want or FUCK OFF NOW!!!! There is no wriggle room with the man, no second chances and no sense of understanding, compassion or empathy. He simply cannot see ‘the other side’ of anything. He knows its there because by all accounts the man is a genius. Like me. But unlike me he doesn’t spend his days sitting on political fences filled with love and compassion for all. Dominic spends his days telling Boris EXACTLY what to do. To achieve his ends. Which is leaving the European Union on October 31st. “No ifs or buts”.

The man is a political bulldozer. He sees a problem and finds the most obvious solution.

Parliament won’t let us leave Europe without a deal. Solution? Take Parliament out of the picture. There’s no majority, no agreement, most MPs are scared shitless about the dreaded (and in my mind, even as a ‘remainer’, much hyped) no-deal scenario. So get Westminster out of the equation. Close parliament.

Which leads to the interesting ‘democracy’ debate. No parliament = no democracy. But Brexit was a democratic decision and to block or delay it is undemocratic. (Continue that argument, round and round in circles, until the end of time. Or ‘31st October’ as its now known).

Parliament then gangs up on Boris to force through a law preventing no-deal Brexit (will be passed on Monday by all accounts). Solution? Throw out all the dissenting Conservatives from the party. Kick ‘em out. Reducing the Goverment’s ‘majority’ from zero to -20. Good move.

20 MPs lost the Tory whip on Wednesday for voting against Boris/Dominic. But they only talk about Nicholas Soames, because he’s Winston Churchill’s grandson!!! As if that makes it ‘worse’. But Churchill, Britain’s most famous Conservative after Maggie and Boris, spent his first 20 political years as a fucking Liberal. So why is sacking his grandson so much worse than sacking anyone else?

Anyway. Parliament will stop Brexit in October. Solution? Call a general election. The one Jeremy Corbyn has been shouting about wanting every single day for the last 7 years. But… but… but… no, not today. Corbyn doesn’t want one right now, not yet, pretty soon… probably, but not now. Because…

Because he won’t win. He is now viewed as toxic by anyone in the country with the most minimal level of functioning and his party are Brexit-torn catastrophically. So the government won’t get the 2/3rds majority required to trigger a General Election.

So in summary; we have a nation currently run by a bespectacled, bald, sociopathic tyrant who isn’t even an MP, the government that has no majority, very few members left and the Opposition are too scared to oppose in any meaningful way. And if they could I’d leave the country. Go somewhere safe. Like Syria.

Don’t‘cha just love Brexit? But don’t’cha???

Happy Thursday
