A really shite in the thick of it impression is literally our government




Johnson: Are you the guys inundated with all the emails from everywhere in the world saying, please help my son, mother in Afghanistan? I've had a few of those

Raab: It was extraordinary that they all stayed after the #KabulAiport attack

Johnson: Amazing, amazing

Johnson has been"lucky" that Covid has masked the doom of Brexit and their utter incompetence, which they have to look forward to. One straightforward fix is to issue a truck load of working visas for drivers, but fascists like Patel would block them.
