LET THE LIES PILE AS HIGH AS THE BODIES : PRIME MINISTER BORIS JOHNSON is facing no pressure to comment on the damning report into his handling of the pandemic as he’s on holiday.
The decision to go to Spain has been explained as a “coincidence” and he would have chosen differently had he known the report was due to be released this week.
“It’s not for nothing that Mr Johnson is known as a lucky general,” a 10 Downing Street source told LCD Views. “He manages to get all his troops slaughtered time after time and then gets a promotion. That’s seriously lucky. He’s unstoppable. You can all be reassured that the Tory economic plan for the future of the UK economy of just money laundering and arms sales is well in hand. Who needs to be in the office to coordinate that? No one.”
Some intrepid souls did try and reach the Prime Minister for comment, but they failed to raise even a whimper.
“That’s because Mr Johnson is a skilled diplomat and is respecting local customs while he’s in Lord Goldsmith’s villa in Marbella,” the source explained. “If reporters tried getting comment from him when he isn’t in siesta they may fare better. Just try him anytime before or after the hours of 00:01 and 23:59:59 any day. It’s really not too much to ask that his effort to fit in with his idea of the Spanish lifestyle be sacrosanct during a well earned break from accountability.”
When asked what the PM would have chosen to do had the MPs taken the effort to give him advance warning of the release day of their report, the source replied, “He would have ramped up his efforts. He would have gone the extra mile. He would definitely have gone even further away. Easter Island or maybe even Pitcairn Island.”
