Let’s start with another brilliant word from Susie Dent
Cacafuego (Caka-fwago): A blustering, swaggering braggart, a spitfire : from the Spanish fire-shitter
Now are you ready, take a breath, smile, here we go.
Our government, like most around the world, are hopelessly out of touch with the mood of the country and the thoughts of the public. They are misjudging almost everything. The app they trumpeted with such fanfare and confidence even by their own figures is a complete disaster. They are beyond any understanding or grasp on the practical realities of everyday living. This is an unprecedented situation and perhaps there are those who would cut them some slack because of that. To be fair when it first started if you go back in my writing you will read that I did damn them with faint praise. I was prepared to give them the benefit of the doubt as they tried to grapple with this insidious pandemic. In true form however they reverted to type and as time has passed became the same bunch of contradictory, bumbling, untrustworthy, lying shits they always were and will always be. Unfair? I obviously don’t think so!
Just take the instance of the Cummings affair, which they now seem to believe is forgotten (not!). If you listen to them on a daily basis or any of the various ministers that are interviewed can you honestly tell me that you have any faith in what they tell us.
No doubt there will be those supporters who in spite of all the evidence think Boris and his ministers have handled it all wonderfully well. If that it is what you think then you are sadly misguided and are wearing blinkers.
I am not confident any government would have necessarily done a better job but this is the lot we have stupidly fallen for and they have not! I am genuinely of the opinion that even a significant number of their most ardent supporters are having their doubts over the wisdom of having Boris as PM?
Saturday and another weekend is here, one we should have been spending in Crete sunning ourselves by the sea and seeing all our friends. Sadly it was not to be. Sa la vie! Let us hope we will be able to go in September.
Whatever plans you have for this year that have either been cancelled or delayed I hope you are able to rearrange for another time or find an alternative. Life always changes this is one the biggest/
Stay well
