Explaining to my 84-year-old, very Spanish grandfather that Hugh Grant, a famous British actor and heartthrob of the past, orchestrated Benny Hill music, from an ancient comedy show meant to highlight clownish behaviour, to play outside Parliament to insult Boris Johnson.

In the beginning the cabinet resignations were spaced by twenty-four hours, then twelve, then six, then every two hours. The last one was an hour. At this rate, BoJo could be seeing a resignation every eight minutes until they are coming every four seconds.

We've lost a third of our government, and MPs have apparently been told that there are no longer enough people on the Bill Committees to pass legislation.
Essentially, the government may be shutting down due to a sheer lack of warm bodies. #Clownfall is trending on Twitter.
May I remind you that this has all happened over the past 24 HOURS???

Climate change is going to keep people alive this winter. let that sink in. Look how far we've got and accept how shit the govt must be to not just allow but CAUSE the situation to deteriorate to the point where climate change is benefiting us.
This is about the UK economic and energy crisis btw please do not derail with "we have to stop climate change" etc because that is missing the point of the post which is that the UK govt is horrible

“What’s a Mess Webley?”
cw: suicide
That’s a question asked several times after this post went up.
A Mess Webley is the apocryphal “Pistol, Service, Revolver .455, officers (disgraced) for the use of”...
Tumblr media
...kept in the Mess, which is where military personnel dine and socialise.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Yes, that’s a wild boar, yes, it’s wearing a top hat and yes, it’s smoking a cigarette in a holder. Because Tradition.
*****
Resorting to the Mess Webley allowed the aforementioned disgraced officer to retain a modicum of honour and integrity, if not necessarily any moral high ground, by Doing The Decent Thing.
To avoid making a mess in the Mess, it’s preferred that DTDT takes place outdoors or at least out-open-window; a .455 is a stonking big soft-nosed bullet and decorators cost a fortune.
*****
It wouldn’t happen in 10 Downing Street anyway; honour, integrity, morality and decency have played no role at that address for a long while now.
As mentioned in the other post, that famous flood of “my-integrity-cannot-tolerate” resignations came from the same shoal of hypocritical remora-fish who had let every preceding incident go by without putting their names to anything.
There were plenty of incidents: Google “Boris Johnson” + “Scandals”, “Cover-Ups” and don’t forget to add their regular associate “Lies” because he was incompetent at the Cover-Up bit as well as so much else. 
*****
BJ redecorated the flat where he lived over the shop to the tune of +£200,000 / +€236,000 / +$240,000. Yes, decorators do cost a fortune, especially when there’s a chance someone else might foot the bill. However this bit of chicanery became public (as usual) and BJ had to dip into his own pocket instead.
It’s far from the most tasteful fix-up, though there are advantages.
DTDT in this room, on that sofa, and it’s possible nobody would see a difference.
