Notable by their absence in his evidence are two main players Gove and Sunak who're apparently Murdoch's favourites to replace the fat oaf. It is terrifying indeed. Having fools who crave power in charge is dangerous. Seen it in the workplace to know how damaging it is. Having leaders in charge of countries who are so incompetent, arrogant and stupid is catastrophic and so damaging to everyone. The Murdoch press should take a lot of the blame. They gleefully pick and choose who to endorse to suit their own selfish agenda. Then manipulate the way people are told information. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karbatal Posted May 27, 2021 Share Posted May 27, 2021 Omg that account of horrifying psychopath decisions told by Cummings! I don't know where to start. Just this alone... "Cummings also said it was suggested chief medical officer Professor Chris Whitty should inject Johnson with the virus on live TV to show it was nothing to be scared of" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karbatal Posted May 27, 2021 Share Posted May 27, 2021 How could we as society in only 15 years turn so stupid? This is happening everywhere! This would be the biggest scandal. People would be outraged. But look at USA, where those who instigated the attack to the white house are comfortable. Look at Spain where the stupid major of Madrid kept all open amidst deaths and she's reelected with the biggest majority. Look at Sweden, where they openly followed the herd immunity path and thousands died. This is so scary! We've turned a complete bunch of stupid population.

karbatal Posted May 27, 2021 Share Posted May 27, 2021 And it's a sociological phenomenon affecting other issues too. Just look at the Instagram thread: things that would be laughed at from other people are applauded there because "it's our team". As if our team had the right to do all.

cardiganstarlet Posted May 28, 2021 Share Posted May 28, 2021 I find it interesting that someone like Cummings who helped gaslight a nation to achieve Brexit is now doing the same to his former ‘friends’. Unsurprising when they’re all such bottom feeders. He’ll obviously do and say anything to complete an agenda. Not that I believe a word Boris says either. I don’t think any of them are going anywhere though sadly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The damage Murdoch has made with ultra right wing reporting now mainstream and accepted is horrifying and so insidious too. They expertly know the triggers to inflame people and don’t care if it is factual to their stories or for the damage they do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jazzy Jan Posted May 28, 2021 Share Posted May 28, 2021 Dominic Cummings revelations about Boris Johnson are now getting a lot of media attention worldwide. Have seen major reports of it in Australia a lot now. Boris does not deny the shocking allegations and instead just vaguely waffles on about other things. He is an absolute embarrassment to the UK.

I now understand the reasons people have become disillusioned with the opposition ( thanks to the UK people that contribute to this thread ) but I still find anyone liking and supporting Boris insane and morally bankrupt. It is like watching a horror play. At least many Americans understood and were disgusted by Trump. Where is the outrage over Boris’s callous disregard to victims and complete inept performance. He does not even DENY what Cummings said. Just bumbles along and people shrug it iff. Utterly terrifying to be honest. Imagine him leading the UK in a war.

A compliant supine media and zero opposition are a deadly combo. If there's no one there to hold you to account then... At least the US has some big media outlets not afraid to call out what was happening. Journalist Peter Oborne (an avowed Conservative but anti this new Tory regime) confirmed that BBC executives told him it’s wrong to expose lies told by a British prime minister because it 'undermines trust in British politics'. It's tinpot stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I'm optimistic. The time of the white straight Christian ruling all is over. They feel cornered and angry. But society has evolved already. Their time is over.

I know so many like that. They are also in general heartless, whiny and privileged. Example - We are Lockdown in Melbourne for at least 2 weeks and people who won’t be earning wages or have been stood down will be getting a payment from the government. So they should be as they have no way of earning any income during the lockdown. Had to listen to one of these types of people that you mentioned above, about how unfair it was that her taxes went towards that and she should also get paid if bludgers were getting handouts. When I replied to her that we were still working and getting a wage during Lockdown so did not need a payment, she still sulked and went on about the socialist left etc. Why are these ultra right wing people so selfish and heartless. She hates so called “ lefties and greenies” and always excuses the big corporations etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
