Michelle Gonelan Makes History

Last political rant from me for a while, given all that happened today, pinky promise!

Hitler shot himself, then, as requested, he was doused in petrol, thrown into a bunker and burned. And I find that hilarious, because he was a mass murderous bastard. Though a coward’s way out, at least he had the sense to know he would one day be held accountable.

In this final political rant from me, hopefully for some time, on the day in which we thoroughly congratulate Lib Dem Brian Mathew for deservedly winning the Melksham-Devizes constituency in the general election, I find myself mostly concerned about the Conservative candidate Michelle Donelan’s reaction as the results are read, caught on camera today; bit weird!

She seemed to appear stumbling backwards slightly, as if in disbelief, and then pulling a disgusted and shocked expression, as if sucking a lemon! Ah, it was funny too, though a tad worrying. “When you’re chewing on life’s gristle,
Don’t grumble, give a whistle ….”

Although historically the result was unusual, given Conservatives have held this seat for a hundred years, surely there must have been a tiny seed of doubt clouding judgement in her mind that she might not walk it?

I’d never dare to insult the intelligence of anyone who has made it this far up the political spectrum, for it takes guts and brains, but the higher the monkey climbs….

One must surely have an inkling, given the absolute corruption the party she has supported and condoned has perpetrated? The lies to the Crown and public, the perpetual cheating, scandalising, the thieving and selfish disregard to public spending, all coupled with continuous inane attempts to cover it all up by censoring media, playing the blame game and bucking responsibility like the country was a school playground. You’d have thought, anyway,  though whether or not she played her part in this too, for even if her own business dealings are debatably suspicious, her involvement and allegiance with the national party is accountable.

It’s as if the group Conservative brain cell mistook the job description. Oh, the government is about serving the public, not robbing it; who knew?!

So I put myself in her shoes, undoubtedly the most expensive shoes I’ve ever worn, and I think, sure I’d be gutted, but the other candidates, Catherine, Kerry and Malcom all come up smiling, taking it like an adult. Why is Michelle’s reaction so different? I believe the answer to this also explains the very reason for the shock result.

The answer, I think, is in assumption, for it is said to be the mother of all fuck-ups. To assume any seat is a safe seat, therefore you can do and say whatever the heck you like shows a  naivety brought about by an ingrained ignorance to public opinion. For if you weren’t shadowed by an inability to know when you’ve overstepped boundaries, surely you’d not pull such an expression of shock, rather an “oops” shrug of acceptance?!

To loosen all the screws on the seat, then wonder why it collapsed is sheer idiocy. An idiocy we’ve seen in the majority today. Conservative MPs so absolutely certain of their success shows just how out of touch they are, and being out of touch with the public makes you incapable of making a decent and honest job of it; quite important that!

So, we congrat all those MPs who slayed the beasts, the ringmasters of this circus of thieves, in their constituencies nationwide, and send our heartfelt condolences to those few who didn’t. It is not about right, central, or left sway winning or losing. It’s about what’s best for the majority of people in this country. It’s for all those deaths, thousands preventable if the government took heed to the WHO and locked down when advised. But they didn’t, not after two money-making sports events in which delegates from China were invited, and they could devise methods of profiteering from lockdown.

It’s for those who’ve suffered from fourteen years of government neglect, for what they’ve done is inexcusable, and surely they must know this? No one could be this nieve, I don’t buy this act of disbelief unless they’re really the clowns they perform as?

From the simplicity of busting a tyre on an dilapidated road, or watching sewage running through a river, to those injured, lying on the pavement for hours waiting for an ambulance due to underfunding the health service. It’s for those children too, who went hungry, or were psychologically scarred by lockdown while they held wild cocaine orgies at number ten. It’s for those who swallowed their pride and were reduced to begging with the ever-growing necessity of food banks and shelter charities while they subsidised their own luxurious lunch in Parliament and laughed in our faces.

It’s for all those who today stood up against these injustices, not to suggest Labour will make a good job of it, or not, but to say, at least someone else has been given the opportunity to try, because unfortunately the modern Conservative party has displayed such a selfish attitude  towards it, what comes around goes around, and it serves them bloody well right!

Though, when I look at it, perhaps they didn’t want to win, because they’ve taken enough money from us to support their friends and families for generations to come? Why, then, did Michelle look so utterly distraught? Most politicians I’ve met genuinely do what they do because they want to make the country a better place. Is this not true of the Tory ones?

Therefore I find it a total mind maze, a complete misunderstanding as to the Conservative mind, if they really think what they’ve done, the actions they’ve taken and country they’ve held to ransom was in any way beneficial for the people who live here. Maybe, that’s my misunderstanding of their philosophy, or maybe it’s their sheer ignorance, the mind boggles but is thankful it’s finally over, until a new generation forgets all this and history, as it does, repeats.

So, cheer up, Michelle, and here’s a little song I dedicate to you….
