I am not affiliated in any way shape or form to the channel linked. However, I also find the similarities of Trump and Johnson very stark in the way they behaved around inciting populism.
It is looking very much like we will have a government change at the next election, but I still fear something may come about that would stop us removing the scum that have infected our political system. If these scum get back in, the UK would very much be looking the country that gives a fascist government power in Europe again.
This really should be a massive wake up call to both our countries. We need reform to prevent this happening again. Politicians should be accountable for their honesty. Politicians should never be left in charge of offices that are essential for honest governance like the judicial system and the electoral overseers.
It should be a wakeup call to any country where right wing populists are trying to gain power.
I fear most will just look at the situation with Trump and say “it can’t happen here” while ignoring who the local populist are taking inspiration from.
That complacency has been very prevalent in the UK for years now. I have been pointing out for years of the comparisons between our government and how the NAZI’s took control in the 1930’s. It is only now that people are taking that claim seriously, sadly.
