Oh, you even get the Tory scum complaining they (Private Eye) are too Left Wing in the same issue that they rip the arse out of Labour run Councils and a few of their MP's. I would get out more but every two weeks (or so) I have something sensible to read.

Their front page headline picture/cartoon is normally worth a look and just preceding their articles "ripping into" any chancers who they can identify and deserve to have the "piss" being taken out of them or just being publicly exposed for what they are and represent.

As previously debated SCO, they unfortunately have most of the press and media "under their thumb" which is as much of a travesty in this country. There are so few media/newspaper or journal outlets that are continually "on their case" in the way it should be orchestrated in a proper civilised and accountable society. Private Eye?

I read the Private Eye now more than Newspapers because Private Eye tells you the news that the media aren't reporting. Also it's got great satire in it.

"Sajid Javid defends Tory MPs’ refusal to wear masks in cabinet and Commons" - these being the same dickheads who passed Covid around Downing Street and Westminster like it was a big tube of smarties last year? Whilst being jabbed this year, it didn't stop them getting it off people they knew last year did it? Or is there something else they aren't telling us? One rule for them, another for us again?

Meanwhile ALL the Covid numbers are large multiples of where we were this time last year when nobody had been jabbed.

What could possibly go wrong?

Javid seems to think you cant catch covid from your close associates.... I guess thats what happens when you put an investment banker in charge of the nations health.

I laughed at news night there, it seems we now have a situation where British farmers and manufacturers are being throttled with red tape but EU products are just getting waved through to our shores "taking back control"

Of course the tories could have extended the transition period if they had wanted. They also could have negotiated a deal on veterinary standards with the EU but no they cant because they intend on dropping our standards not raising them.

Maitliss interviewed some tory MP about this shambles and his hot take was the the problem was because the EU were implementing brexit and the UK wasn't.

I just about put my foot through the telly.

Appointing Liz Truss Foreign Secretary is like playing Jesse Lingard at centre back.

They are all Brexit chums together DG - nothing surprising re this latest Cabinet reshuffle. Even that "dodgy car salesman", Dominic Raab, not fully removed from the Cabinet at all and Patel remains intact???? What shit does she know about Johnson and uses it against him????

[ritchiebaby]

Johnson/Patel - I've often wondered about the dynamics at play between them. She's almost untouchable, if you know what I mean.

[0762]

She's another "lightweight" politician, a serial offender, who occupies a senior Brit govt position that she should be nowhere near. Absolutely bizarre Ritchie!

I always thought Dominic Raab looks like Lord Voldermort.
