smokingbootWhat an incredible pack of lies. Absolutely stinks of Bojo.
In a way I feel sorry for her. She's not a complete idiot - she knows Trump's closeness to Putin, dossier or no dossier, is no stabilising influence,and she cannot want our intelligence services or national security compromised by so volatile an ally, who may or may not be the puppet of another power. But she is terrified of the far right wing of the tory party, of the party splitting and UKip mopping up the frothing remains. Then of course, there are the business interests that donate to the Tories but feel betrayed by the insanity of leaving Europe. How can she ensure their profits? All she can do is cut taxes and regulations. What happens to tax intake then? Goes down. What happens to things like the NHS then? Ummmm. But her followers have long wanted to stop paying for that anyway. The only good news about this whole pile of rotting tripe, is that when it all begins to stink and my addled countrymen find themselves forced to eat it,they will no longer be able to blame anyone else for their meal.
Her priorities are clear; party first, then business, then country. How TF anyone who voted for this nonsense can call themselves a patriot beats me.
It really is time to leave this country.
