Struggling to afford food? Work longer hours, says Tory Coffey. Does she work at all?
Here is your regular reminder that Therese Coffey is rubbish.
It’s from last week but got lost among all the other rubbish the Environment Secretary threw at us then:

Here’s a video clip of her actually saying it:

Meanwhile, let’s have an update on the fruit and vegetable shortages her government has caused:
Shortages of fruit and veg.
Great Britain is the only place affected.

And how about a reminder that the Tory Brexiters were adamant that we wouldn’t suffer any shortages at all?
You were saying Michael Gove?

And what is her plan to end the food shortages?
Apparently, it is to choke on her own words:
You know you the Government has run out of road when this is the best they can come up with… pic.twitter.com/wWvnfqC4qX

If you noticed that Luke Pollard asked if Coffey wanted to go down as the Secretary of State for Sewage, you may welcome this update on the pollution of our rivers:
A bit grim in the River Bollin at #Macclesfield this morning. Whatever toxic waste has been dumped in there has killed all the fish. #StormHour pic.twitter.com/QwkdXIPEZI
— Mark Boardman (@StormHourMark) February 23, 2023
All the fish dead because the Tory government couldn’t be bothered to properly regulate the water and sewage firms it created by privatising a national utility and asset.
It should be a criminal offence and these people should be locked up – and forced to eat and drink the produce their incompetence has polluted.*
*I know that’s a death sentence but it will never be carried out, even though it would be poetic justice.
