I see our prime minister has been getting the compliant right-wing media to salute him for scrapping "woke" green policies that weren't policies in the first place. Normal country remains normal. :good:

We’ve had, what? Over 13 years of woke, socialist governments messing things up on spectacular fucking fashion. Anyone buying that fucking bollocks deserves everything they get. Although I think it’s far more about leaving more shit for the next Labour government at this stage

Just listened to a podcast of a veteran.  The UK government does not keep stats on suicides by veteran's, unlike pretty much every other country.  I suppose if there's no stats, it doesn't exist eh? 

Ongoing Royal Commission here on that topic. Apparently about 1600 deaths by suicide between 1997 and 2020 which is about 20 times the number of killed on active service over roughly the same period. :sad:

They don’t give two shits about your average squaddie. Bar gaining votes from the Daily Mail readers, etc. by stoking the culture war. Daily Mail readers also don’t actually care about them.

Hating the fact Musk has fucked up twitter embedding for me, and no, I refuse to look up a work around. Screen grab here of something that amused me.

Terrible news for UK plc too. Car companies are up in arms at it. They one thing they want is certainty. The Tories can never again claim to be the party of business or sound economic management. Not after the past 13 years.

Alright, I think I can accept that workaround, cheers wykiki.

 

In response to Gloom:

Johnson: Fuck business.

Truss: Fuck the economy.

Sunak: Fuck the planet.

Marr reckons that spring is now more likely than Autumn.

 

Sunak is reportedly about to abolish inheritance tax. Not a great look when you're worth over £700m.

 

Also, he's about to announce the scrapping of the Manchester leg of HS2.... Just before holding their party conference in Manchester.

 

He doesn't give a fuck anymore.

He never did. He’s just taking the piss more and more as he’s  presided over an incoming landslide defeat. He probably had no chance if he’d won the leadership election. But once Truss and Kwarteng had completely fucked things that was that.

HS2 would have shaved about an hour off the journey to London from Manchester. As someone who occasionally does that route, I for one am delighted that I am keeping hold of that extra hour to dick about on the company dime.
