      “Austerity” it’s just politician-speak for fucking over poor people with tax cuts for the rich.

    Of course. Why tax the wealthy when you can starve the poor even harder for existing. Assholes

      They’ve got the biggest and best resume when it comes to colonizin; can’t let all that experience go to waste!

    Sunak and the Tories trying not to be awful people challenge (100% impossible).

    Sunak is still coping with being bullied.
