So for long Boris and his sidekicks have given messages that have turned out to be lies.
From £350m on busses to shaking hands with Covid patients and claiming Covid is nothing to worry about. And as recently as his American trip where his claims of what was discussed were denied by the Americans.
So for once, the people of UK have chosen not to believe his people when they say there are no fuel shortages.
And the press just love a panic story. Absolutely love it. They feed off it.
And now tomorrow’s press is saying that Boris is going to save the day by doing a u turn and granting visas for foreign lorry drivers.
If I was cynical I would say it was all a plan. They realised they have cocked up with brexit but can’t admit it. So relax the visa rules by blaming this on the UK consumers panic buying. Of course it’s not just fuel, supermarkets have warned Govt as recently as this week that there isn’t enough drivers to deliver the food to stock the shelves. And of course with Xmas round the corner we will soon have Xmas is cancelled headlines. Same as him and his press have been blaming GPs for the NHS crisis.
It’s always someone else to blame, never them.
