DAN WOOTTON: Boris needs to listen to Rees-Mogg and make our Peloton-loving WFH public sector take the pain of balancing Britain’s books, not hard-working people who thought they voted for low-tax Tories and have ended up with Labour-lite

  3. Looks like Rees-Mogg is lining up to the soon to be empty seat of PM.

    Otherwise, the article makes some good points about what Brexit voters expected and are now not getting.

    In my opinion, a big re-do of the entire governing system in the UK is needed to solve the current problems — starting with a more diplomatic voting system to allow more than two parties in and get rifüd,of ‘strategic voting’ (basically people not voting for the party they want to vote for) and branching through every single department and institution.
    The current system more or less worked for a long time, but it’s time to see if there isn’t some kind of upgrade to be done by looking at what other democratic contries are doing and learning from their and our mistakes.

  6. >Yet the big-state Boris Tories – New Labour with a shaggy dog hairstyle

    Setting up Boris as some kind of left-leaning muppet in preparation for the ‘corrective’ swing back to the right, are we?

    >..much of the money could be saved if there was a wholescale cull of the lazy civil servants who have used the pandemic to ‘work from home’ and avoid Whitehall at all costs, when, in fact, they’ve been working out on their expensive Peloton bikes and watching episodes of Loose Women in their pants on the sofa.

    Demonising those working from home, as if employers don’t already have the necessary ability to fire workers that don’t pull their weight? Oh, won’t you think of the poor employers!

    I do love how they seem to think that if an employee isn’t doing their job when WFH, that somehow their character changes completely when they come into the office and they become a good, effective worker? Someone who is no good when WFH is guaranteed to be crap in the office too.

    It’s a usual Daily Mail trash article through and through.

  7. Again, love being told that I’m a lazy arse for preferring WFH by some shit tier tabloid journo emailing in their thousand words a week on the same topics they always wank on about

  9. weekly reminder for the DM’s hate for WFH is the fact that a lot of Tory donors and grandee’s have fuck loads of their money in London and other city centre office buildings, the value of which is tanking, there’s no other reason than greed.
