The continuing delusion that Brexit was in any way a good idea has turned the Tory party into a place where stupidity is rewarded & incompetence promoted. This, when you think about it, was absolutely inevitable. It can’t end until someone in the party starts telling the truth.

If you’re marching around the place pretending that we haven’t become the first country in the world to impose economic sanctions on itself or that pretty much every problem we face hasn’t been exacerbated by Brexit, then I imagine it’s easy to claim that Johnson did a good job.

Beyond brilliant. These ludicrous discussions & pretty much all political panels dance around the fact that we’re governed by dissembling imbeciles propelled to power by the epic lies of Brexit. Presenters like @bbclaurak are complicit. @joelycett just found the antidote. Genius. twitter.com/BeardedGenius/…

If you speak too much truth to right-wing power, right-wing power won’t come on your TV & radio shows any more. It’s a major problem in this country & it won’t disappear with Boris Johnson.

This is why it's satire at its subversive best. He's ridiculing a medium so debased by lies that fact-free gibberish like Truss's is ordinarily treated with respect. Obviously, people with a vested interest in behaving as if the Emperor's fully-clothed are going to get the hump. twitter.com/MitchBenn/stat…

Masculinity so fragile it’s threatened by peppermint-infused beverages can be briefly bolstered by chopping logs. Every day’s a school day. t.co/2KRQWOaFEg

Many would argue that Boris Johnson's erstwhile 'social justice adviser', Iain Duncan Smith's former 'chief of staff' & Lord Ashcroft's favourite house elf should apologise for his entire 'career'. twitter.com/montie/status/…

A brilliant comedian went on the telly & pretended to be 'very right-wing'. He sounded absolutely ridiculous but also *exactly the same* as someone who really is 'very right-wing'. And that is why they're all so furious. It's not a mirror's fault when you hate what you see in it.

In response to today’s episode of stupid people who think they’re making a brilliant point: not only *should* Gordon Brown have gone to the country after becoming PM, he *would* almost certainly have done much better than he did in 2010.

It’s only Melanie Phillips but these things always start with outlying weirdos on the Murdoch/Mail/Barclay payroll: “an even more explosive issue is the number of *legal* immigrants.” These ghouls have torched the country & now need some new scapegoats. Step forward foreigners…

@mrjamesob
I'm increasingly convinced that these weird new TV channels set up by non-dom billionaires & staffed by various misfits & rejects are designed to create a media ecosystem in which right-wing politicians can pretend they're facing scrutiny while avoiding proper journalists.

To be fair to 'Lord' Frost, there really is *no* Cabinet position commensurate with his talents.
