‘The Tories are fueling their electoral defeat with their anti-woke card’
Watching this Government crumbling into ashes is like eavesdropping on the ultimate days of the Third Reich.
There, within the Downing Street bunker, are the sycophants, the backstabbers, the dead-eyed staffers and the dregs of the expertise barrel attempting to shore up assist for the imploding regime by churning out propaganda about their enemies within the hope they will cling to their jobs. And wanting extra determined than Yosser Hughes.
Take this week’s Sky News cringefest when two cupboard (stifle your laughter) “heavyweights” had been ordered guilty the BBC for the Tories’ imminent annihilation on the polls. Culture Secretary Lucy Frazer tried to persuade Kay Burley the company was consumed with left-wing bias with no scintilla of proof, and was skewered and roasted like a suckling pig.
The subsequent day, Transport Minister Huw Merriman confronted Burley with definitive proof in regards to the Beeb’s despicable anti-Tory agenda. But it turned out to be a phase from radio comedy present The News Quiz. As if the open targets the Tories rating on an hourly foundation just isn’t honest recreation for satirists.
Merriman believed he’d introduced out a smoking gun by claiming BBC social affairs correspondent “Neil Buchanan” gave “only one side” of the Universal Credit story. Turns out Neil Buchanan is the host of children’ TV present Art Attack.
Their lamentable makes an attempt to suck as much as the right-wing media by placing tradition wars on the forefront of their election marketing campaign solely reveals how determined and out of contact they’ve turn into. So honest play to Keir Starmer who, quite than becoming a member of them within the gutter, described their lashing out at so-called “woke” targets just like the RNLI and the National Trust as “a kind of weird McCarthyism”.
He’s proper. This bizarre agenda the Tories need voters to purchase into is a smokescreen to cover the distress, division, financial decline and decimation of social cloth they’ve inflicted on Britain. It could excite right-wing newspapers and people woefully underwatched Fox-lite TV channels, whose solely message appears to be that trans activists, Meghan Markle and Gary Lineker are the spawn of Satan. But the reality is, no person actually cares.
Exorcising the supposed evil of wokeness is manner down the British voters’s priorities therefore the horrible viewing figures of these right-wing TV channels. Surveys present that half the nation doesn’t even know what woke means.
As for being an election winner, look no additional than Ron DeSantis whose whole pitch to be the Republican’s presidential candidate was waging battle on “the woke mind virus which is a form of cultural Marxism”. He has now dropped out of the race after being slaughtered within the first main. By a possible jailbird.
DeSanctimonious as Trump known as him was alleged to be a slicker, youthful improve on the Donald. DeFuture in truth. Instead, he left the stage a damaged man aptly mistaking a Budweiser beer slogan for a Churchillian quote. One US political pundit stated it proved that “your average evangelical grandma in Iowa knows little about culture wars”.
Let’s hope the Tories maintain enjoying this anti-woke card, yelling out their pretend anger all the way in which to an analogous electoral humiliation to DeSantis. Who will they blame their unpopularity on then? The woke BBC? Woke Twitter? Woke voters? Or individuals by no means actually shopping for into the parable behind this pile of confected bull.
