if you can listen to this poisonous smirking little oval office for even one second without killing yourself, on the subject of open tory corruption I invite you to earnestly consider Why Would Jeremy Corbyn Do This

Jeremy Corbyn is going to even more of a monster in retrospect for all of these people just so they don't have to admit that the Tory party was the worse option, which is amazing considering there were columnists accusing Corbyn of wanting to reopen Auschwitz.

I laughed out loud at the first paragraph:



As he lay comatose on his deathbed in 1936, King George V was injected with fatal doses of morphine and cocaine to assure him a painless death in time, according to his physician's notes, for the announcement to be carried ''in the morning papers rather than the less appropriate evening journals.''

IIRC they're members of a gang associated with Millwall football club, who have a long reputation for being especially violent and nasty. So likely the latter.

Yet people will complain about the English not treating royals like they deserve, even though they execute them for PR.
