Just seen the latest news that six members of the despicable SAGE lobby group are set to be awarded OBEs by the Queen. This proves once again how corrupt and worthless the honours system has become and how it should all be abolished.
I’m not pro or anti-royal, and I certainly believe Queen Elizabeth has been a fine ambassador for this country, but the titles for mates policy adopted by recent governments is an embarrassment and makes the UK look like a banana republic!
The fact that SAGE members with a god complex wanting to lock everyone in their homes and abuse their human rights (hopefully Simon Dolan’s injunction next week puts a stop to all that) can be nominated as heroes rather than the evil villains they are is a sick unfunny joke. The only connection they should have with royalty is accompanying Boris, Hancock et al in the Clink at her majesty’s pleasure serving a long prison sentence for crimes against humanity!
No surprise there. They can't wait to rub our noses in it can they?
Mark Kennaird - Queen to Boris "An OBE awarded for killing cancer patients who are awaiting treatment but can't get it. One hasn't heard of that one before."
Boris - " Yes, for sending thousands to their doom. Jolly spiffing isn't it? I also nominated Dominic Cummings for inventing a new approach to eye testing, but that didn't quite get through."
@Grumpy Cat To paraphrase Blackadder; “Shut up Boris! Or I shall further ennoble you by knighting you rather clumsily with this meat cleaver!”
Mark - Absolutely, a crime against humanity!
We no longer have the right to feel superior to the corrupt dictatorships of Africa and South America. If anything, the corruption of many western countries is worse because it’s not just the governments, they are in the stranglehold of corrupt media and medical establishment organisations that dishonestly claim to be open and virtuous.
In this environment it doesn’t matter if you are incompetent and your advice ends up making things worse (Niall Ferguson), you will still get rewarded as long as you toe the party line and don’t rock the boat. The fact that these unsackable bureaucratic frauds receive these ridiculous titles after doing such a bad job while good hard-working people in small places have their jobs stolen away by the very same people makes my blood boil. If there were any justice, they would all get undiagnosed bowel cancer and suffer agonising, slow, painful deaths while the hospitals concentrated on Covid patients. Then we could put three more letters after their name...R.I.P!
Mark - It's always the innocent who suffer. That's why we get angry.
