After Burns Nicht: (about time we had a bit of culture here)
Address to a Boris
Awa’ wi’ yer lyin’, pudgy face Chief conman o the Tory race Aw silver spuin, a waste o space Aw tripe, nae guts. Ye’re soon tae pay fur the disgrace Of yer cruel cuts. Yer groanin’ trencher there ye fill Yer hurdies like twa dimpled hills Yer plate wad hulp to feed a million Weans in need. While thro yer press whores lies still spill Like choukie feed. Yer lies gie Covid patients fright We mind yer ev’ry glaikit slight When trenchin’ breathless corpses tight In unmarked ditch. And ye? O whit a hideous sight Cake-reekin, rich. In hi-viz jaikit, coupon buffed Hard hat, hair-net, a mop, chest puffed Ye dinnae care yer country’s stuffed By old schuil chums. Fuid rots in docks yet ye’ve enough Tae glut yer gums. While ye trough thro yer French ragout Or olio that wad burst a coo It’s neeps and tatties in oor stew We’re keepin’ thinner. Yet ye sit sneerin’, scornfu’ too Wi’ ten course dinner. Poor “Boris” thocht he’d be World King Wi’ peasants kissin’ his gowd ring But noo he lives oan a shoestring He’s charged fur fuid! And maintenance fur his offspring! Nae bluidy guid! Pure feart o lassies, men and boys Yon Tories plot tae droun the noise Of true control, of fair free choice Fur independence. Oor sov’rinty yields not oor vyce Tae yer “acceptance”. Conmen, wha mak free folk thair slave Unite us mair oor land tae save New Scotland’s soon tae rule her wave Tae reach new glories. Be safe, oor southern pals, be brave: Just ditch the Tories. To the immortal memory of Robert Burns. From today's Guardian

Source stated as from The Guardian, that just about says it all.
The Guardian is a source for most of the rubbish the BBC touts as well. |

I'm not a fan of the Guardian generally, but their poem did make me a chuckle, albeit a little harsh on the Tories, and possibly more McGonagall than Burns. The government has the veritable poisoned chalice to deal with. Everyone now has found their retrospectoscope. There is some good news. The Tories managed to order vaccine three months ahead of the EU, and the vaccine programme is going very well. I wish the media would focus a little less on things we can't change in the UK that damage our collective mental health. Let our media also discuss where the 'Wu Flu' really originated from and who should really be held to account. The disgraceful early misinformation campaign of the Chinese government sabotaged the 'WHO' and delayed the world response. Multiple labs around the world still do dangerous 'gain of function research' on viruses. The Chinese government continues to deny they did anything wrong. I see their media recently stated that 'Trump' sent them the virus and another misdirection that researchers from their lab were bitten by bats while collecting them. We're all dealing with the mess created by the mutating Chinese virus and should try to avoid the rabbit hole of political infighting.
