It’s not just about what Boris said, it’s about what he actually did
Image description
This cartoon begins with the headline “It’s not just about what Boris said” and beneath that an illustration of Boris Johnson saying “Let the bodies pile high”. Next to that is the headline “It’s about what Boris actually did”. Beneath that are the following:
“Missed 5 cobra meetings” illustrated with an empty chair
“Late lockdowns” illustrated with a dial that reads “Cautious, sensible, tardy, reckless and WTF”. The needle on the dial is pointing to “WTF”.
“Failed track and trace scheme” illustrated with three bags of money.
Finally there is a box containing the words “That’s why we are here” and an arrow pointing to a tombstone with the following words on it “127,434 – currently the 5th highest death rate in the entire world”.

We know everyone is suffering under the Tories - but the Canary is a vital weapon in our fight back, and we need your support
The Canary Workers’ Co-op knows life is hard. The Tories are waging a class war against us we’re all having to fight. But like trade unions and community organising, truly independent working-class media is a vital weapon in our armoury.
The Canary doesn’t have the budget of the corporate media. In fact, our income is over 1,000 times less than the Guardian’s. What we do have is a radical agenda that disrupts power and amplifies marginalised communities. But we can only do this with our readers’ support.
So please, help us continue to spread messages of resistance and hope. Even the smallest donation would mean the world to us.

The official figure for deaths was announced last week as 150,000.
It’s not just the covid issue. It’s just in the nature of the man – see Peter Oborne’s Assault on Truth – it’s shocking how a person like this can get away with so much.
Actually I would argue with the covid death count:- https://www.ons.gov.uk/aboutus/transparencyandgovernance/freedomofinformationfoi/deathsintheukfrom1990to2020
to me it looks like we are 156,030 deaths less than 2000 accounting for population growth, wow how did we all survive 2000 with out a lock down and a dodgy untested gene mutation?
Missed the most vital stat – “Sent back up to 40,000 pensioners in NHS long term care DELIBERATELY to die in private care homes in order to ‘save’ on the costs of care and pensions”. Just like Cuomo.
Funny, isn’t it, how the mind boggles at the thought that this was INTENTIONAL. “Surely not”, the back of your mind goes.
And yet, you know it’s true.
Maybe the Canary should do an article on Yellow Card Deaths from the Jib Jab, I’d like to see their take on it.
