Covid, Brexit, obviously a good week to bury bad news

Just when you thought it impossible for the Government to be any more incompetent, Kwasi Kwarteng has been made SOS BEIS :facepalm:

Free school meals will be available to all primary school children in England, under a £610m-a-year plan unveiled by the Liberal Democrats.

Infant school pupils are already entitled to a free meal under a policy championed by leader Nick Clegg and introduced in September last year.

But Mr Clegg wants seven to 11-year-olds to also benefit from 2017/18.

Bloody Worthing!
Following his shambolic performance at PMQs, Johnson put in a (rare) appearance at the Commons' Liaison Committee. If anything he was even worse than he was at PMQs insofar as he couldn't bait the questioner, had no audience to play to and was required to display some detailed knowledge of his own policies. This is not his strength and he riffed his way through it, totally unable to answer just about any question. Yvette Cooper did the skewering this time on the new Brazilian strain COVID and the shameful lack of action on behalf of his pathetic government.

And now the reason why becomes clear

Moves by Kwarteng to attack workers’ rights may well run into a red wall

https://www.theguardian.com/business/2021/jan/17/moves-by-kwarteng-to-attack-workers-rights-may-well-run-into-a-red-wall

What was it Kwarteng famously wrote ?

"The British are among the worst idlers in the world. We work among the lowest hours, we retire early and our productivity is poor. Whereas Indian children aspire to be doctors or businessmen, the British are more interested in football and pop music.”

Good luck to anyone still in paid employment :down:

Boris Johnson narrowly avoids Commons defeat as MPs vote by 319 to 308 to reject amendment outlawing trade deals with countries that are committing genocide.

We can do deals with despotic regimes now - that'll stick it to the EU

So thanks to the Government last night it was confirmed they're quite willing to flog the NHS off to genocidal regimes

Disgusting, if not unexpected.

Whilst jobs, businesses and whole industries are going down the pan because of the ridiculous 'deal' they negotiated, they are ignoring all of this and pushing through their de-regulation agenda as quick as they can under the cover of Covid.

At least people knew what they were voting for :shootself
