WELL DO YA, PUNK : As a result of Boris Johnson being too busy with arts and crafts to exchange verbals, the other contender for Tory leader, Jeremy Hunt, decided to exchange words with a terrified country instead.
Last night on Twitter the distant relative to Queen Elizabeth II found himself fielding questions on his Brexit Tory power stance.
The session was an illuminating one, with Mr Hunt relentless in the pursuit of dangerous idiocy.
And when asked about recent comments he made regarding his willingness to put a bullet clean through the head of the U.K. economy on October 31st, if necessary, Hunt had his pistol drawn, mostly in crayon but with some charcoal shading for effect.
“The country’s small and medium sized businesses will have to ask themselves a simple question,” Dirty Jeremy responded, “Do you feel lucky? Well, do ya punk?”
A subsequent question as to why he was quoting Dirty Harry yielded a .45 calibre response.
“I’m prepared to blow the heads of jobs clean off,” he said, “although who actually keeps and loses their job will be a question of whose feeling lucky. Did we fire all our extension requests, or do we have one left?”
A good question indeed. And one the unknown answer to is causing a lot of anxiety.
“Brexit is the most powerful economic weapon in the world, it could blow this country’s head clean off,” he reprised, just in case anyone didn’t get the message the first time.
”We don’t know what the EU will do if we pull the trigger on a No Deal Brexit come October 31st, but I’m feeling lucky.”
Feeling lucky is about the only policy the Brexit cheerleaders have ever had, but it’s a dangerous way to attempt to run a country.
