It seems that ship has sailed, never to return…
When you have a senior politician who is paid by the people, to keep the country safe, waking up in the morning heading off to parliament to condemn “tofu-eating wokerati” as she said (this was our former Home Secretary i.e. the minister in-charge of the police, law & order etc). I don’t typically eat tofu, but if someone else does, I ain’t going to label and condemn them. And I’m not a politician paid by the same people she’s insulting.
It’s the stuff of kids!
How a senior minister can get out of bed and deem that line as the line to go and deliver in public, really does sum up just how low, we have allowed our politics to descend!
Politicians now openly attack whichever sections of society they deem unsuitable for their agenda. These folk are the ones paying your salary madam!
The lack of finesse is what I find particularly revolting!
It has taken me several months since those words were uttered, for me to get over the shamefulness of it, to be able to speak of it! It really takes our politics right down into the gutter!
