Biblical thunderstorms mark the coming of the anti-Corbyn
Despite the best wishes of the Daily Mail, Britain has been racked by thunderstorms since Boris Johnson became PM.
So is this all a coincidence? Or is it a message from the gods? A message which presumably reads:
What in our names have you little dickheads gone and done now?
The anti-Corbyn
The rump of Tory members who voted for Johnson love two things:
- Brexit.
- Hating Jeremy Corbyn.
This is why the Tory leadership hopefuls set themselves up as a series of anti-Corbyns – throwing his name in whenever they could. Johnson has even made anti-Corbynism one of the four main pillars of his leadership.
Deliver Brexit
Unite the country
Defeat Corbyn
Energise the people

But does his opposition to Corbyn / mild social democracy really mean Johnson is some sort of hellish devil man? Well no, not in itself. It’s just that it does when you consider all the rest of it.
A high-ranking exorcist told Off The Perch:
You also have to look at Johnson’s racism, his general bigotry, and his full-blown support for a decade of Tory policy. There’s also the fact that he reeks of sulphur, and has the cloven hooves of a goat. And let’s not forget those red horns which grow from his head if he goes too long without sanding them. That’s why he keeps his hair looking like a fetid penguin nest.
Their Satanic travesties
The only problem with the Johnson-devilman theory is that many prophecies warn that the devil will be appealing when he comes. Beyond the handful of Tory members who voted him in, however, it’s difficult to see who’s charmed by this fiendish fop.

We need your help ...
The coronavirus pandemic is changing our world, fast. And we will do all we can to keep bringing you news and analysis throughout. But we are worried about maintaining enough income to pay our staff and minimal overheads.
Now, more than ever, we need a vibrant, independent media that holds the government to account and calls it out when it puts vested economic interests above human lives. We need a media that shows solidarity with the people most affected by the crisis – and one that can help to build a world based on collaboration and compassion.
We have been fighting against an establishment that is trying to shut us down. And like most independent media, we don’t have the deep pockets of investors to call on to bail us out.
Can you help by chipping in a few pounds each month?

Hitherto, I believed Blair the official incarnation of the Antichrist. Now I am not so sure. Perhaps Bair’s role was akin to that of John the Baptist prior to the coming of the Messiah.
