Another day, another load of BS from political leaders on everything and nothing, which is basically what they are doing sweet F*** all. Let's have look at what's rantable today.
In America as people protest, California and Oregon burns, COVID is spreading it's death and the election day gets closer, what is been done to stop any of this by the sitting president? 'NOTHING' except create more mayhem within a country already to implode. Trump has now dismissed concerns over climate change on a visit to fire-ravaged California, telling an official there it would "start getting cooler" while blaming poor forest management for the wildfires getting out of control which prompted his rival Biden to call him a 'Climate Arsonist'. Fires in California, Oregon and Washington state have burned almost 2m hectares (5m acres) of land and killed at least 36 people since early August. Trump met with Californian officials involved in the battle against the wildfires at a stop near Sacramento, in the centre of the state and when one official asked him to stop ignoring the science, Trump replied "It'll start getting cooler, you just watch... I don't think science knows actually." Can this man get anymore ignorant on what is going on around him, it's true what is been said by his opponent for the position of president, this man cares nothing for the country and is only interested in funding his families lavish lifestyle.
While Trump tells people in California climate change is a myth, yet another hurricane has formed and is closing in on the US Gulf Coast, threatening several southern US states including Florida, Mississippi and Alabama. This one called 'Sally' is now a category two storm and is expected to make landfall early on Wednesday. So Trump, if there is no such thing as 'Climate Change', how for only the second time in recorded history can there be five tropical storms churning in the Atlantic basin at the same time. The southern region of America is still trying to recover from hurricane Laura which hit Louisiana and Texas last month. When are politicians who value their bank balances over their communities going to start realising the plant is fighting back for the centuries of neglect and theft of natural resources. Are we heading towards another extinction event similar to what killed of the dinosaurs? Science can only predict so much before nature finally wins out, so isn't it time to save the planet which will in turn save humanity. Sitting in the wings in addition to Sally, there are four further tropical cyclones named Paulette, Rene, Teddy and Vicky swirling in the Atlantic Ocean basin. It has been stated that If only one more storms is officially named (Wilfred has already been chosen for the next one) meteorologists will begin naming new storms after the Greek alphabet which is a frightening prospect. Not only is Trump been blind, so are many other leaders who see profit before circumstance and are merely concerned about global economy rather than global survival. We are seeing one natural disaster after another in an already apocalyptic year we now know as 2020.
I think it's time to check in on dear old Blighty and her incompetent leader. So as the nation sees rises in positive cases of coronavirus, unemployment and those now living in poverty, what is the primeminister doing?, as I said earlier 'SWEET F*** ALL'. Instead he is once again trying to push unlawful legislation down our throats which will do nothing, but benefit him and his cronies. This new legislation is a proposed law which will give Johnson's government the power to override parts of the Brexit agreement with the EU and has passed its first hurdle in the Commons as MP's backed the Internal Market Bill by 340 votes to 263. The government states the new bill contains vital safeguards to protect Northern Ireland and the rest of the UK, if negotiations on a future trade deal breaks down, yet the critics which include a number of Tory MP's, warned it risks damaging the UK by breaching international law. Only two Tory MP's voted against the bill on Monday night (Sir Roger Gale and Andrew Percy) while a further 30 abstained, although some of those may not have been for political reasons. The shadow business secretary Ed Miliband took to the floor of parliament to openly accuse the prime minister of “legislative hooliganism” as he warned the Bill would “equip the government with the power to break the law” in a widely-praised speech leading Labour’s opposition in the commons. The former Labour leader also accused the prime minister of trying to shift the blame for reneging on the 'Withdrawal Agreement' on which he fought last year’s general election, saying: “For the first time in his life, it is time to take responsibility, it is time to fess up" calling out Johnson for his lies and hypocrisy. Once again we see a Tory government hell bent on finding ways to subvert any trade deals made by installing a loop hole clause which proves what many people are now coming to understand, the Tories under Johnson are corrupt and dishonest in everything they do using legislation to enact there hunger for power and wealth, Johnson is a modern day version of Hitler and Cummings is his Heinrich Himmler. As the country suffers under a sentence of death for COVID-19, an ever decreasing economy and an authoritarian government, the government is said to be playing mind games with both the EU and the cross party opposition by heaping more unwanted and unlawful counter productive laws and bills in to an already over tasked parliament just so they can feel they have ultimate power, 'Heil Johnson'.
On the back of this governments ineptitude we are now seeing NHS staff who were praised weekly for their diligence in the early months of the pandemic, but have received very little praise since lockdown was eased are now being put at risk because a lack of coronavirus testing which is forcing many staff to self-isolate when they could be at work. NHS Providers, which represents NHS trust leaders have stated that the recovery of services is being put in jeopardy while preparations for the winter pressures of COVID-19 and seasonal flu are also being hampered. Also It's not just actually the test for the individual member of staff, it's also getting access to tests for their family members which is causing concern throughout medical professionals. Johnson praised doctors, nurses and auxiliary staff for helping save his life, but now when those people need his assistance Johnson is nowhere to be heard, let alone be seen. This is the character of the man the British public elected to lead our country. We are seeing the rise of the virus each day in the thousands and again we see the government sitting on their well paid asses doing nothing to improve the safety and welfare of not only the general public, but the people the ill, infirm and dying rely on to save them. This is simply not good enough instead of wasting time on a document that will never work like the Brexit agreement, the primeminister should be seen to be working on solutions that will preserve human life post pandemic.
In a world that is technologically advance, some what morally good and one that is thought to civilised, why do keep seeing those who lead ignore the science? Are we as a combined humanity determined to run head long in to extinction? Are we that self-centred that we will ignore the suffering of our fellow humans? Is money really what matters? I don't have the answers, but as a person that has no regard for politics, no regard for wealth and has no one else to worry about on this planet, why am I more concerned than the politicians elected on the back of pledges they made and constantly break? We are at a crossroads in human existence where the people charged with the welfare of nations are more likely to create the extinction event where billions of innocent people will die while the privileged survive in their underground bunkers. In the 2026 when this pandemic and election cycle has run it's course a movie will be made depicting the atrocities delivered on humankind in the year 2020 showing just how corrupt and inept the policy makers of today were. It maybe sooner, but if Trump wins four more years the real truth will be suppressed and the freedom of speech in America will be quashed until he is no longer president unless he first destroys the constitution and remakes America in a mirror image of North Korea and while Johnson will face his judgement day in 2024 unless the backbench Tories have a coup and remove Johnson sooner. Either way the movie depicting 2020 will be a blockbuster that those concerned will try to block from ever been made just to save face. On that I will call it a day,
Rant you tomorrow!
