Why do politicians lie so freely......
« on: 06 March 2020, 15:18:10 »

......and expect to get away with it?
Health secretary Matt Hancock said, on the news today, that the government was working closely with supermarkets to ensure there were no food shortages and people in quarantine at home would be looked after.
The supermarkets said "Matt Hancock is making up what he is saying. We haven't heard anything from the government".

Who's going to hold them to account ?

Pretty much everything that comes out of Tory gobs is an absolute lie yet it is accepted and positively lapped up in some circles

Looks like the next US president will be either


Bernie Sanders age 78
Joe Biden age 77
Donald Trump age 73.

Surely the US president should be a 'big swinging dick' rather than a choice between 3 'limp dicks'... :)

"the supermarkets said" .... now that's a highly attributable comment ... NOT ... but it is believed more than the Minister .... 

I always remember a security briefing when I was in the RAF ...  went along thew lines of ... Don't discuss matters in the Pub .. as if you are overheard by a journalist they will publish what you said as "a military spokesman said......"

Sounds like that is again the present standard, and is now the "truth" to a great many ....... gullible or what ???

From the BEEB:

But supermarket sources said they had not discussed getting food to homes.
One executive said he was "baffled" by the suggestions.
An executive told BBC business editor Simon Jack: "Matt Hancock has totally made up what he said about working with supermarkets. We haven't heard anything from government directly."

Good enough for little ole gullible me.

I believe them, in this instance. But, apparently, they'll be 'more representative' of the country as a whole once the new charter is up and running.

 The crona-beer-virus, was invented by the Supermarkets to get rid of all the overstock they bought in post-brexit, as it didn't happen they need to empty the extra warehouses they rented to avoid paying more rent....

All politicians lie except of course those in the political party you voted for.
