Prime Minister.
Your latest publicity-grabbing stunt is to claim your concern that the lessons of the Holocaust must never be forgotten, then. Hmmm… this in spite of the fact that you are still permitting your Work and Pensions Secretary to revive and extend the practices of social cleansing and extermination, by means of starvation, malnutrition, and suicide, that were last engaged in by the early Nazi regime in Hitler’s Germany. With those revolting and illegal practices continuing, I suppose it’s safe to say that the lessons of the Holocaust are likely to be with us for some considerable time to come, don’t you? We can only hope that their latest authors, like the original ones, run into the sword of justice coming the other way sooner rather than later.
We can tell that an election year is approaching fast, simply by watching you jump onto every available bandwagon that your image guru can find. If I were you, I would sack that guru because he’s making you look like a complete and utter twunt. Not that you actually NEED any help with that, of course.
But, look: The newsfeeds show your mugshot alongside a picture of the lad who’s just raised a few millions for cancer research. What they glaringly DON’T show is you actually MEETING the boy, do they? So how did he phrase his refusal to enter into your publicity quest? I can sort of imagine the conversation:
Hospital Consultant: The Prime Minister would like to meet with you and have a few photos taken. Are you OK with that?
Cancer Lad: I’d rather not. After all, it’s his government that’s trying to close down the hospitals that have looked after me and helped me to get this far.
HC: I’m sure you could twist his arm for a donation to your cause.
CL: I know what I’d like to twist, Doc, and it sure as Hell ain’t his arm!
So, did you try and meet him anyway, and is this why only your head appears in the publicity cobble that was the best your people could come up with under the circumstances? Just a mug-shot. No handshakes over the infusion pumps this time then.
If ever there was a solid and fully understandable argument against your Chancellor’s austerity myth, that lad is that argument personified. I expect your tame medics can advise you that stress – physical as well as mental – actually increases the risk of a person developing cancer. Stress reduces the quantity of endorphins that the brain produces, while doing something like the lad has done in raising all that money actually increases them. He’s riding high on a wave of those feelgood chemicals and, as a result, his body has made an effort to fight back, to the extent that it has actually expelled at least part of the tumour within his lung.
Yet all your government can see its way clear towards is the imposition of further measures that will squash those itty-bitty feelgood chemicals within an ever-increasing number of the public’s heads. Never mind what the Roman astrologers came up with, it’s your ignorance of such matters as these that has doomed you and your government cronies to be remembered forever as abject failures.
It’s no wonder there’s only a mug-shot. What else could there possibly be of such a mug as you?
Sincerely,
Darren Lynch
