"Comprehensive fuckery update, it's been a while... 1. A report found the “Eat Out To Help Out” scheme cost £500m and didn’t do a single thing to improve the economy of the UK’s hospitality sector. 2. However, it did help to double the number of infections, although they forgot how to count, so didn't notice. 3. As infections spiked, the govt briefly woke up and introduced local lockdowns. 4. But predictably, the local councils responsible for implementing the new plans were given literally (not making this up) 5 minutes warning and no additional resources whatsoever. 5. It was revealed absolutely not a single penny of the £1.58bn “Arts Rescue Plan” announced to great fanfare in July has actually been handed out to the artists or venues relying on it. 6. So unsurprisingly, the country’s largest cinema chain had to close, costing 5,500 jobs. 7. But thankfully Work and Pensions Minister Thérèse Coffey was on hand to reassuringly tell them they can all become Care Workers with "very little training" (I'm sure nursing is a doddle) 8. Slight problem: in June the govt froze millions in funding for training care workers. 9. But it’ll be fine, won’t it? I mean, who needs to train care workers? We have plenty, don't we? Oh, hold on: This week it was revealed care workers are caring for 2,400 families each, which is 10x the recommended number. 10. Good News for Boris Johnson, as a poll of Tory Members found they think Gavin Williamson is even shitter than the PM. 11. Bad News: they think every other Conservative MP is better than the PM, and only 28% of them think he’s up to the job. And that’s his fan-club. 12. So Boris Johnson went on a charm offensive (and did both), and promised to build 40 new hospitals. 13. Seemingly he had forgotten – or hoped we had – that he also promised to build 40 new hospitals a year ago, and then … how can I put this? … didn’t. 14. The 40 new hospitals have £3.7bn budget. 15. Unfortunately, 40 new hospitals would cost at least £24bn. 16. And there's a backlog of £6bn in maintenance and repairs, so the day it was launched the “new hospital fund” was £2.3bn short of building a single Lego Hospital. 17. Last week Boris Johnson said the Covid rules were simple, then forgot them, then said they were complicated, then said he’d fine people breaking them, then didn’t fine his own dad. 18. This week his own dad broke the rules for a second time and [tumble]. 19. So 6 days after the PM went on TV to assure us the lockdown rules were simple, the govt has announced it will announce some simplified rules. But not yet. Soon. In a bit. First we need another few levels of announcements about announcements, cos there’s no rush fellas. 20. I always try to find a supportive and approving quote about Boris Johnson from a star-struck anonymous Tory MP: This week, I have an embarrassment of riches. 21. “It’s like ‘carry on coronavirus’, with Boris as Sid James and Matt Hancock as Kenneth Williams”. 22. “I find myself bewildered at the clownish lack of professionalism in Downing St”. 23. “If you drop something which is entirely ornamental [meaning Boris] it tends to lose its appeal”. 24. “We’ve gone from eat out to help out, to drink up and piss off”. 25. The Tories called loudly for the firing of the SNP’s Margaret Ferrier for travelling by train after being found positive for Covid. 26. No word yet about them calling for the removal Tory MP Peter Gibson, who travelled 250 miles by train with Covid symptoms. 27. Peter Gibson is part of the new “Red Wall” intake of Tory MPs, so presumably was keen to return to his constituency to inform them that 1/3 of them would be £1000 a year worse off due to govt cuts. 28. It was revealed that 5 years after Tories pledged to end money laundering with the announcement “there is no place for dirty money in Britain”, absolutely no action has yet been taken, and the legislation has been gathering dust since 2015. 29. But thankfully, non-corrupt ministers like Robert Jenrick, who takes “donations” (which are apparently different from bribes) from housing companies, are still doing the right thing, such as unlawfully overruling his own officials to grant a £50m tax saving to a donor. 30. And a legal challenge was launched over a £580k contract to friends of Dominic Cummings, with no competitive tendering. 31. Oh, and Matt Hancock takes “donations” from the horse-racing fraternity, and excluded the highly profitable Cheltenham Festival from the lockdown. 32. The former Chief Scientific Advisor said Cheltenham Festival “probably helped to accelerate the spread” of coronavirus. 33. Not that we’d know, because it appears a mere 227 days after the first case, the govt still hasn’t learned to import data into an Excel Spreadsheet. 34. Any IT manager would tell you Excel is not the way to store the data of up to 67 million people – it is spreadsheet software for a max of 1 million records. 35. 16,000 tests were lost, and over 50,000 potentially infectious people may have been missed by contact tracers. 36. On 2nd June, Boris Johnson announced he would take “direct control” of Covid. 37. So 125 days later, he couldn’t tell us the social distancing rules, how many records had been lost, or explain why 4 different lockdown regimes exist in Greater Manchester alone. 38. But human spork Matt Hancock rushed out to say NHS Test and Trace are working hard, neglecting to mention the slightly awkward truth that NHS Test and Trace is not run by the NHS, but by a private business under the guidance of the effortlessly terrible Dido Harding. 39. Highly effective private business Serco do our contact tracing, which is why some of its tracing staff report being so under-occupied they have managed to watch 3 entire series of The Good Place and play computer games all day for months, while 60,000 Britons died. 40. I have no idea if the Queen has noticed her govt's honesty, but this week she said “having trusted, reliable sources of information is vital”. 41. We enter flu season under a govt you can trust, but who accidentally failed to send the flu vaccine to GPs for over a month. 42. And the average hours for teachers increased from 53 to 70 hours per week, as they attempt to cope with endlessly shifting instructions. 43. Teachers are also having to be cleaners in schools, as there is no additional money for adaptations to keep staff and students safe. 44. As the govt prepares for 4 million unemployed in 2021, Rishi Sunak said he would introduce “job coaches”, and said 4 million of us being coached for *up to* 2 hours to do jobs that don’t exist would be “the first time that people will realise government could be helpful”. 45. A report found “trust between ministers and staff is being severely eroded” by a 7-month delay in the bullying inquiry into Home Secretary and horcrux, Priti Patel. 46. She then made a speech in which she voluntarily opted to define herself as opposite to those who “do good”. 47. Possibly to distract from this, health minister Lord Bethell rushed out to claim Covid 19 would make us as proud as the Olympics. 48. Covid 19 has killed about as many as you can fit into an Olympic Stadium, so maybe that’s what he meant. 49. A quick detour into the magical, spinning world of gaffe-hamster Lord Bethell: Last week he tried to distract from govt student cockups by claiming Covid 19 was predominantly caused by “late-night intimacy” and not by, for example, failing to trace infections. 50. Earlier, Bethell tried to distract from govt A-Level cockups by claiming him failing A-Levels didn’t prevent him hustling to his lofty position (momentarily forgetting the hustling assistance he gained when his dad, the 4th Lord Bethell, hustled his way into a grave). 51. And finally, in an image that will haunt you, Matt Hancock announced he would only snitch on his neighbours if he was “watching them having an Animal House-style hot tub party”. Watching. He said watching. Matt Hancock. Watching." What a sad load of bopllocks like a BBC4 comedy sketch garbage | |||

"Comprehensive fuckery update, it's been a while... 1. A report found the “Eat Out To Help Out” scheme cost £500m and didn’t do a single thing to improve the economy of the UK’s hospitality sector. 2. However, it did help to double the number of infections, although they forgot how to count, so didn't notice. 3. As infections spiked, the govt briefly woke up and introduced local lockdowns. 4. But predictably, the local councils responsible for implementing the new plans were given literally (not making this up) 5 minutes warning and no additional resources whatsoever. 5. It was revealed absolutely not a single penny of the £1.58bn “Arts Rescue Plan” announced to great fanfare in July has actually been handed out to the artists or venues relying on it. 6. So unsurprisingly, the country’s largest cinema chain had to close, costing 5,500 jobs. 7. But thankfully Work and Pensions Minister Thérèse Coffey was on hand to reassuringly tell them they can all become Care Workers with "very little training" (I'm sure nursing is a doddle) 8. Slight problem: in June the govt froze millions in funding for training care workers. 9. But it’ll be fine, won’t it? I mean, who needs to train care workers? We have plenty, don't we? Oh, hold on: This week it was revealed care workers are caring for 2,400 families each, which is 10x the recommended number. 10. Good News for Boris Johnson, as a poll of Tory Members found they think Gavin Williamson is even shitter than the PM. 11. Bad News: they think every other Conservative MP is better than the PM, and only 28% of them think he’s up to the job. And that’s his fan-club. 12. So Boris Johnson went on a charm offensive (and did both), and promised to build 40 new hospitals. 13. Seemingly he had forgotten – or hoped we had – that he also promised to build 40 new hospitals a year ago, and then … how can I put this? … didn’t. 14. The 40 new hospitals have £3.7bn budget. 15. Unfortunately, 40 new hospitals would cost at least £24bn. 16. And there's a backlog of £6bn in maintenance and repairs, so the day it was launched the “new hospital fund” was £2.3bn short of building a single Lego Hospital. 17. Last week Boris Johnson said the Covid rules were simple, then forgot them, then said they were complicated, then said he’d fine people breaking them, then didn’t fine his own dad. 18. This week his own dad broke the rules for a second time and [tumble]. 19. So 6 days after the PM went on TV to assure us the lockdown rules were simple, the govt has announced it will announce some simplified rules. But not yet. Soon. In a bit. First we need another few levels of announcements about announcements, cos there’s no rush fellas. 20. I always try to find a supportive and approving quote about Boris Johnson from a star-struck anonymous Tory MP: This week, I have an embarrassment of riches. 21. “It’s like ‘carry on coronavirus’, with Boris as Sid James and Matt Hancock as Kenneth Williams”. 22. “I find myself bewildered at the clownish lack of professionalism in Downing St”. 23. “If you drop something which is entirely ornamental [meaning Boris] it tends to lose its appeal”. 24. “We’ve gone from eat out to help out, to drink up and piss off”. 25. The Tories called loudly for the firing of the SNP’s Margaret Ferrier for travelling by train after being found positive for Covid. 26. No word yet about them calling for the removal Tory MP Peter Gibson, who travelled 250 miles by train with Covid symptoms. 27. Peter Gibson is part of the new “Red Wall” intake of Tory MPs, so presumably was keen to return to his constituency to inform them that 1/3 of them would be £1000 a year worse off due to govt cuts. 28. It was revealed that 5 years after Tories pledged to end money laundering with the announcement “there is no place for dirty money in Britain”, absolutely no action has yet been taken, and the legislation has been gathering dust since 2015. 29. But thankfully, non-corrupt ministers like Robert Jenrick, who takes “donations” (which are apparently different from bribes) from housing companies, are still doing the right thing, such as unlawfully overruling his own officials to grant a £50m tax saving to a donor. 30. And a legal challenge was launched over a £580k contract to friends of Dominic Cummings, with no competitive tendering. 31. Oh, and Matt Hancock takes “donations” from the horse-racing fraternity, and excluded the highly profitable Cheltenham Festival from the lockdown. 32. The former Chief Scientific Advisor said Cheltenham Festival “probably helped to accelerate the spread” of coronavirus. 33. Not that we’d know, because it appears a mere 227 days after the first case, the govt still hasn’t learned to import data into an Excel Spreadsheet. 34. Any IT manager would tell you Excel is not the way to store the data of up to 67 million people – it is spreadsheet software for a max of 1 million records. 35. 16,000 tests were lost, and over 50,000 potentially infectious people may have been missed by contact tracers. 36. On 2nd June, Boris Johnson announced he would take “direct control” of Covid. 37. So 125 days later, he couldn’t tell us the social distancing rules, how many records had been lost, or explain why 4 different lockdown regimes exist in Greater Manchester alone. 38. But human spork Matt Hancock rushed out to say NHS Test and Trace are working hard, neglecting to mention the slightly awkward truth that NHS Test and Trace is not run by the NHS, but by a private business under the guidance of the effortlessly terrible Dido Harding. 39. Highly effective private business Serco do our contact tracing, which is why some of its tracing staff report being so under-occupied they have managed to watch 3 entire series of The Good Place and play computer games all day for months, while 60,000 Britons died. 40. I have no idea if the Queen has noticed her govt's honesty, but this week she said “having trusted, reliable sources of information is vital”. 41. We enter flu season under a govt you can trust, but who accidentally failed to send the flu vaccine to GPs for over a month. 42. And the average hours for teachers increased from 53 to 70 hours per week, as they attempt to cope with endlessly shifting instructions. 43. Teachers are also having to be cleaners in schools, as there is no additional money for adaptations to keep staff and students safe. 44. As the govt prepares for 4 million unemployed in 2021, Rishi Sunak said he would introduce “job coaches”, and said 4 million of us being coached for *up to* 2 hours to do jobs that don’t exist would be “the first time that people will realise government could be helpful”. 45. A report found “trust between ministers and staff is being severely eroded” by a 7-month delay in the bullying inquiry into Home Secretary and horcrux, Priti Patel. 46. She then made a speech in which she voluntarily opted to define herself as opposite to those who “do good”. 47.
