How is Boris Johnson going to save the planet when he can’t even talk sense to kids?
On the eve of the crucial COP26 climate summit, Boris Johnson held a press conference about it for young children – and showed that they are more mature than he is.
This creates problems for the world, because he and his UK Tory government are hosting the event.
At one point, he actually suggested that we should “redress the balance” (what balance?) by feeding human beings to animals:
Days before the leadership of the entire world meets in the UK to discuss the future of the planet and the prime minister signals his seriousness by joking we should feed people to animals. The joke’s not funny, and it’s on us. pic.twitter.com/JBCcrI8qdO

Here are just a few of his other comments, according to The Mirror:
Reporting on a talk @BorisJohnson by ahead of #COP26 the Mirror – “Mr Johnson made a series of bizarre suggestions on battling climate change, including municipal toothpaste dispensers, feeding people to animals to rebalance nature and encouraging cows to stop burping”

The tweet below sums up the general feeling about his performance:
Johnson was clearly out of his depth when talking with those children.

With his government in charge of COP26, we’ll all be out of our depth soon enough – as the sea level rises.
Perhaps Johnson is hoping the sewage-laden tide will cover his shame.

Boris Johnson does not want to repeat the mistake of his hero Churchill in 1945 ……by continuing austerity…..This budget will start to create a new Beveridge Plan….following the financial model of the new Modern Monetary Theory being adopted by Biden and the USA .
The Tories will be the architects…….
How does Labour respond…….?

1945-51: Labour and the creation of the welfare state
From the shock victory of Labour at the 1945 general election, to the founding of the promised welfare state, Derek Brown trawls the archives and presents a potted history of the immediate postwar years.

Introduction
The outcome of the 1945 election was more than a sensation. It was a political earthquake.
Less than 12 weeks earlier, Winston Churchill had announced the unconditional surrender of Nazi Germany. Churchill wanted his wartime coalition to continue until Japan too had been defeated, but was not unduly dismayed when his Labour ministers insisted that the country be offered a choice. The prime minister called the election for early July, confident that the British people would back the greatest hero of the hour. Of all Churchill’s colossal misjudgments, that was probably the most egregious.
The voters wanted an end to wartime austerity, and no return to prewar economic depression. They wanted change. Three years earlier, in the darkest days of the war, they had been offered a tantalising glimpse of how things could be in the bright dawn of victory. The economist William Beveridge had synthesised the bravest visions of all important government departments into a single breathtaking view of the future.
He’s trying to give the impression of being Green but reality is that Boris doesn’t care about the environment and thinks it’s all a big joke.
Maybe we should just feed Boris Johnson to the animals!
