You’d think the UK would’ve been the first to close borders. Where is all that Brexit energy????

The U.K. didn’t do lockdown properly so the world has locked us down by force lmaooo.

The EU have negotiated to get the Pfizer vaccine at €10 less per dose than the UK. Turns out, the bigger your market, the better deals you can strike. Who knew?

I think if you broke the law and exposed an entire country to a deadly virus so you could attend your boyfriend's jet-skiing competition you can definitely cool your heels in jail for 4 months, sounds like a great lesson in personal responsibility. nbcnews.com/news/us-news/f…

What we need to is end once and for all the 40 year failure that is trickle down economics. We can replace that with Piñata economics instead.

The word ‘Tory’, commonly used to refer to a member of the UK Conservative Party, comes from the Irish Gaelic word ‘tóraidhe’ meaning outlaw or robber.

I still cannot believe Boris Johnson closed the country down at 9:16pm the night before eid yet is proposing a mix of four households for Christmas four weeks in advance ??? Can you even imagine if this was the other way round the UK would be absolutely FURIOUS

£29 million for a Festival of Brexit. Hmmm. Remind me again, how much did the government need to spend in order to ensure impoverished children had enough food? £24 million was it? Interesting. Did I say ‘interesting’? I meant to say ‘What a bunch of cunts.’

I am sick of people wondering if it's possible to survive Christmas in lockdown when so many Hindus in the UK have survived Diwali, Navratri, Janmashtmi and so many Muslims have survived Eid and Ramadan. Why are we STILL talking about this?

I could write jokes for 800 years and I'd never think of something funnier than Trump booking the Four Seasons for his big presser, and it turning out to be the Four Seasons Total Landscaping parking lot between a dildo store and a crematorium.

A snippet of Bojo's speech shortly.. On 22 Sep the SAGE scientists recommended a national lockdown to avoid thousands of unnecessary deaths. After giving it careful consideration for 5 weeks, I have decided to act quickly and decisively. #NationalLockdown #Lockdown2

9/11 kills 3,000 people, and we spend the next two decades, thousands of lives, and many billions of dollars attacking the Taliban. Covid kills 250,000 people, and some dudes are like, "Wearing masks and not going to bars is an overreaction!"

The real test of the UK is whether by Election 2024, we all forget the Tories caused the most excess deaths in Europe, gave the top grades to private school kids, starved poor kids while their parents were out of work, blew £millions on dodgy contracts and left the North to rot.

In Nottingham, more people die from air pollution than alcohol consumption and road accidents combined. If the government can afford to pledge £28.8 billion on roads, it can afford to invest in green public transport and support for taxi drivers to decarbonise.
