Historically, ministers were ideally supposed to be people of good character, personal integrity and of a very honourable person. Lying would have immediately been a severe disgrace. In modern times, with toxic populism infecting politics, ministers are forced into accepting what is said no matter how outrageously false as the truth until it can be completely disproven. Sadly, it is far more difficult to effectively prove that a minister has deliberately lied, the attempt to do so takes so much effort and time for so little gain that it isn’t worth it. Damage is done. That’s how Boris Johnson, Donald Trump and their ilk get away with such blatant lying, throwing out ridiculous comments and laugh as people try to defend themselves while they move on. In Donald Trump’s case, he’s made a financial career out of lying about his own importance to the point where he swindled people out of their money. He’s borrowed money from circles of people to pay each other off, while skimming all the profits. It’s so complex that people have difficulty keeping track of how they’ve been swindled, so he makes a fortune from them. His downfall from all of this is that his finances have become so ridiculously complex that it has become a nightmare to work out what taxes he owes and to whom he should pay them. Meanwhile, he causes distractions by throwing outrageous claims into the public to rile them up, like water usage or immigration for instance, inciting people away from looking into his affairs too closely and cultivating an image of popularity…when in reality he’s a crazy snake oil salesman selling other people’s stuff on the cheap to earn a quick buck to pay his other debts off. Boris Johnson is taking pages from Trump’s book, throwing out distractions everywhere he goes, while lying through his teeth because he knows that it’s easier to grab attention with a lie and come across as a ‘cheeky scamp’ than it is to form honest and truthful arguments. Why persuade people with the truth, when you can sell them a semi-believable lie for half the price? He comes across as a slight incompetent, bumbling oaf that muddles through everything, when in reality he is very clever and calculating. He’s learned a lot from being sacked from almost every job he has ever had due to lying, which is how much of a lie to tell people and how to do it just right before they call him on it. By then, it’s too late and he’s off selling another distraction. Everybody knows that he lies, he knows that everything he says is a lie. The problem is proving that he has lied when he’s playing the system that states that he must be telling the truth.
The house of commons is theatre and not a true representation of what goes on behind the curtain of lies told to the public…
Is it not time to give The Speaker the power to oversee the Ministerial Code and bring to account ANYONE who does not follow the rules of The House of Commons. Bonson getting away with all his truly awful behaviour will only encourage future bonson or trump types, to follow in their footsteps. As it stands the one who needs to be challenged is the one in charge of any investigations.
He accused Labour Front Bench of drug use.
We have a moral duty not to comply. No to discriminatory vaccine passports and mandates, it is an utter disgrace. This must not happen England. Will never vote Labour or Tory again.
The chamber is a pantomime to entertain the peasants. The real politics happens in the subsidised bars where they all sit sipping brandy, smoking fat cigars while laughing at us all.
