rishi sunak & sajid javid have resigned from cabinet and jumped ship! the rats are off and running!
to lose one chancellor might be regarded as misfortune... but to lose two on one day looks like a plot. even the non-entities are jumping ship ('who?')
sadly it's not a plot - the tories are only just reaching the point of actively plotting to get boris out and he's not going to go nicely.
horsemouth has already forgotten who said it: 'you will have to drag him out by his ankles'.
pushing the ministers out of the front door to lie for you and take a bullet is acceptable behaviour (clearly) but only when you've got the story straight beforehand. otherwise they are just made to look stupid to no avail. dominic raab (dominic the second) used to have majorities of 28,000 now he's down to 2,000. this is what loyalty gets you dom (both of you).
horsemouth was happy when dominic cummings was bounced from power because horsemouth thought cummings actually had the plan that would have kept the tories in power for a generation. with him went any chance of doing anything competent. it was just a sea of wiggling pigs bottoms as their noses went firmly into the trough. from that moment on their days were numbered.
but sadly no-one knows the number. (there horsemouth just checked the guardian to make sure he's not gone already).
so what replaces him?
'a shape with lion body and the head of a man,
a gaze as blank and pitiless as the sun... '
the people putting in the work to depose him seem to be the hardcore brexiteers (jaysus) and hardcore free-marketeers (feck).
it will be the pre-election, or it will be by the time they've got the leadership sorted, it will be the time to splash the cash and make sure that their supporters don't feel dramatically worse off (with rising oil and gas prices and a recession looming). raab expects the traditional tory message of 'economic competence' to carry them over the finishing line (he is a dull boy) but it will be difficult to make that argument when the well-heeled haven't been able to afford to run the heating over winter.
on the other hand starmer (prince remainer) has to attempt to get to the finishing line pushing a cart labelled 'make brexit work'. (fucking hell sisyphean tasks and augean chores, talk about public service, the poor cunt, horsemouth actually feels sorry for him).
so a government with lots of liberal democrats in it then (the people who fucked your kid's education?)
joy, joy, joy...
it's 50 years of pink moon. there's a documentary on nick drake's life.
it's guitar and voice. there's a little piano in there.
