Great post Dickens
It always amazes me how his brexiteer supporters conveniently forget his previous remain stance.
... and it amazes me even more that some of them - especially those males who regard themselves as 'ordinary working class' can ignore his contemptuous and damning comments about them a few years ago. He called them, for the best part, "lazy", "feckless" and "usually drunk"...
Similar, perhaps, to the antics of the Bullingdon Set, behaving like oafs in restaurants throwing food around and trashing the place afterwards?
I'm not suggesting all Tories are like this, but Johnson and his cohorts behaved abominably because their privileged lifestyle, their sense of self-entitlement allowed them to. I believe that truth be told he and others like him largely hold the working class in contempt and that we are being patronised with mantras kike "levelling up".
And you know what else? I could forgive him for 'partying' and breaking his own rules, if he'd just come clean at the outset and put his hands up, it's the lying, obfuscating, blustering buffoonery that he thinks charms him out of trouble, the way he responds to any attempt to hold him to account by shaking his head from side to side and mussing up his hair... and I think I'm going to shut up now before I explode with rage - not because of the parties, but because he's taking us for fools, and that makes me mad as hell.
