The Thick of It

As if dealing with a global pandemic which has left the UK with more deaths per head, a bigger and deeper economic hit and a longer road to recovery, and Brexit going so "well" on top of that, what elese could Downing Street thrown in the air for more chaos?

Well, a power struggle, with reshuffles and sackings.

All brought about by Sir (Lord) David Frost being brought in to over see the ongoing Brexit negotiations. Not finished, you say? Well, I'm not surprised. In an interview he was quoted as saying that Michael Gove, who he replaced, had not been frm enough on Northern Ireland.

An aide, can't remember his name, but has the nickname, Sonic, resigned after being accused of leaking to the press.

THis is the ultimate crime in this administration, made up by mostly former journalists, who crave nothing more than good headlines, and their former colleagues still writing for the Mail and Telegraph are only too happy to oblige.

Meanwhile, having learnt absolutely fucking norhting from last year about reopening the economy too early, the Government is, *checks notes" planning on reopening the economy as soon as possible.

Well.

Rumours are that Chris Whitty is none too happy about this, but Johnson's advisors seem to think that rearranging the words in sentences can convince Whitty to back the plan whch goes against all sense in public health.
