Still testing positive after 9 days although feeling almost a 100%? 

Corruption and lies, two words I never thought I would write so many times, as I have over the period that that Johnson and his ministers have been in power. I suggest there was much corruption before his rise but surely it had never been at the unprecedented levels, we have witnessed since his election? It has become obvious that his lies are a way of life for him, a tactic, which he uses to deflect from being interrogated more harshly on his actual policies. He does not have any real direction, so he misleads and lies deliberately! when questioned more closely he denies he said it or lies further by saying he has retracted the statement when he has not. 

Meanwhile his ministers are embroiled in scandal after scandal, almost always to do with money that goes in their pockets. It can be of no doubt that they care little for the voters unless of course they are wealthy. Not all of the wealthy are bad or don’t want to pay their fair share but they are far more insulated against the huge rise in the cost of living. 

My wife has just made a very strong point. Why are we not on the streets protesting against the energy prices and the rise in NI amongst many other issues? Why are the Labour Party and the unions not organising mass protests, Twitter and Social Media will not make any difference, it is only he said, she said and no where near as powerful as a real street protest! 

We are weak and apathetic, worn down by the constant drag of the last few years, no longer able to stand up for ourselves in any meaningful way.

I for one will not allow my energy company to raise my DD and will continue to pay at the rate we are already on and i suggest we all do the same.

Stay well
