True stories about shortages of foreign workers currently command a fraction of the coverage that untrue stories about an abundance of foreign workers used to enjoy in most British newspapers.

We were told the HGV driver shortage is Europe-wide, but now the government is trying to recruit drivers from across Europe. We were told the crisis isnāt caused by Brexit, but the government is now reversing a fundamental part of Brexit (immigration restrictions) to solve it.

He just lies, all the time and without consequence, to the point where I genuinely donāt think he knows or cares what the truth is, and is so above accountability that it doesnāt matter.
Boris Johnson, when asked about Joe Biden's concerns over the Northern Ireland protocol, told reporters: "The president actually in our meeting yesterday, I don't think it came up at all. We had a meeting of over 90 minutes & it wasn't raised." cf. the White House readout:

Like with fishing rights, the US FTA was something the government built up as urgent, transformational, and worth any sacrifice... right up until it failed to meaningfully secure it, at which point it suddenly started to agree with the experts that it's not a priority after all.
PM on US-UK trade deal: "The reality is that Joe has a lot of fish to fry. āIād much rather get a deal that really works for the UK than get a quick dealā More from me on on trade, PM trip to WH & Kerry on why BJās 6/10 for that $100bn climate aid package more 9/10 in News @ 10!

How can we have āmoved onā from Brexit when we still havenāt fully implemented it? And if we have āmoved onā from Brexit then why is Lord Frost still trying to renegotiate it? Just asking.
Kwarteng again dismisses questions about Brexit by saying "we've moved on".

Almost like Brexit was a terrible idea, promoted by outright lies told by complete charlatans š¤·āāļø
On @BylineTimes and @BylineTV weāve been warning about this for 9 months. A winter of discontent like nothing since the 70s is upon us. Donāt say you werenāt warned

It was 1974 when state schools were required to teach metric system as main system of measurement. So you'd have to be well over 55 to remember imperial as your preeminent measurement system. Nuts to make this an issue.

This guy is just an embarrassing caricature at this point
Jacob Rees-Mogg says Conservative MPs donāt need to wear facemasks in the Commons chamber because they regularly attend parliament and meet other MPs and says if opposition MPs also "worked a bit harderā¦ they might not need to wear face coverings either."

We pissed away the summer. No attempt to get numbers down while the weather was good. No attempt to ventilate offices or schools. No support for isolation. No effort at all to get us into a better place before the cold weather arrives.

I would pay to watch footage of someone doing their "own research" on vaccines. Share your screen because I am absolutely dying to know what you're looking at
