[Image ID: a tweet thread by Nazir Afzal, @nazirafzal. The first tweet reads:

“Boris Johnson is the first sitting prime minster to be judged guilty of a crime

Sunak the first Chancellor to be fined

Carrie the first PM’s wife to be fined

Downing Street is a crime scene”

It is tagged #Partygate.

The second reads:

“Let’s be clear this is the most atrocious leadership during the worst public crisis since WW2

He made the law
We complied with the law at great personal cost - all of us
He & his Govt broke the law

Without the rule of law, there is no democracy”

The third reads:

“To those saying ‘now is not the time’ for Johnson to resign

Those of us who lost loved ones to covid & couldn’t attend funerals also believed that 'now was not the time’

But we responded to the greater good, we decided to comply with the law & we made sacrifices while he didn’t”

The third reads:

“LAW BREAKERS CANNOT BE LAW MAKERS”
It is tagged #BorisJohnson, #RishiSunak, #TheRestOfThem, and #Partygate.

The last reads:

“I lost my brother to covid & my mum to a broken heart in the 1st lockdown
I have been asked by numerous media outlets to be interviewed about Johnson

I’ve turned them all down because I’m so angry that I don’t know what I would say

When the anger subsides, he’s still a liar”

Boris Johnson: I’m sure you’re all keen for everything to be accessible again

Boris Johnson

I’m not an economist, I don’t know the ins and outs of this stuff but how helpful is it for the government to hand out chunks of money to people when the cost of living is accelerating?

Initial help is needed because people are suffering but those on benefits need long term help, universal credit clearly isn’t enough to live off in the first place.

And the £400 energy grant is for everyone, regardless of income and still available to those with second homes. Do you really think anyone who owns a second home is struggling right now? Sunak (who’s a billionaire btw) is saying he’s giving his to charity and suggests others in the same position do the same. How about just not giving it to rich people?

Rose: The Sequel Spoilers:

You-know-who just hired a local company which makes plastic products to do a job they’ve never done and have no idea how to, so…

My girlfriend: That definitely sounds like an RTD plot: Boris Johnson hires a hoover company to make respirators and they don’t help you, they suck the life out of you.

Disgusting misogynistic attack on Angela Rayner by from the Mail on Sunday:

Beyond the sexism this article also adds classism to the mix with this quote:

The fact that Angela Rayner was a working class girl Who dropped out of school Who was pregnant at 16 Who went from full-time carer to being Shadow Minister Should make us respect her more Not less …and a damn sight more than politicians who arrive via Eton conveyor belt 2:50 pm · 24 Apr 2022·Twitter for iPhoneALT

Someone actually thought this, then wrote it, others then approved it, then published it. At no point did it apparently occur to any of the above that this was embarrassingly awful. Hang your heads in shame. 1:14 am · 24 Apr 2022·Twitter for iPhoneALT

The attack on Angela Rayner came out the same day as this story:

Dan Stevens roasting Boris Johnson on The One Show 13/4/22

thenotoriousscuttlecliff:

The police have issues 50 fines to Downing Street staff for attending parties during lockdown including the Prime Minister Boris Johnson and Chancellor of the Exchequer Rishi Sunak, the two most senior people in government. They broke the very laws they put in place, lied about it repeatedly before finally getting exposed and prosecuted. And yet has either offered to resign? 

What do you think?

Because of the shitty state of the welfare system in this country, I have run out of money five days before I get paid because I have to live on disability. Boris Johnson can spend 10 million redecorating his pad but I get to live below the poverty line and act grateful for it. Urgh.

I rely on UC (welfare) to live, and after spending £10,000,000 redecorating his house Boris thinks it’s ok to cut it by £87 a month, when I already live below the poverty line. How is this acceptable?

The entire north east of England reading the tier system right now

“Lu, they’re having a birthday party in there. It’s not for me, is it?”

Theresa May years ago: “We will ban gay conversion therapy”

Boris Johnson: “We promise to ban conversion therapy”

The Queen: “The government will ban conversion therapy”


In Ron Howard’s voice, Arrested Development-stye:

“… They didn’t ban conversion therapy.”

2016: Donald Trump becomes President of the United States.

2018: Scott Morrison is democratically elected prime minister of Australia

2019: Boris Johnson becomes prime minister of the United Kingdom.

And leftists everywhere cry.

Has it actually been a month and a half since Ben included Hillary Clinton in one of his cartoons?

I had thought about this recently. Haven’t seen AOC either. Should have mentioned it before this came out so I would have proof.

I guess Greta Thunberg has become his go-to boogeyman.
