Coronavirus: Thirty-eight days when Britain sleepwalked into disaster while Boris Johnson slept.

In a brutally damning feature in today’s Sunday edition, the venerable Times of London lays out a case which could be further argued that British Prime Minister Boris Johnson makes United States President Donald Trump look to have long and actively been engaged with the COVID-19 pandemic.

And on a surely related front, there are credible reports that Johnson is not exactly in control of his intake of adult libations.

Johnson is a drunk. That’s the other thing. No one will say it in public. But he is. If he held lesser office they would call him “clubbable.”

While speculation is rife as to who exposéd Boris Johnson’s inexcusable indifference towards actually doing his job, Quincy Quarry has good reason to suggest that the leaks were likely care of the marking turf by Larry the Cat, the Official Mouser for Number Ten Downing Street. 

And as for his motivation, Larry – arguably the last British lion and unarguably long the most popular ostensible government figure in the United Kingdom – surely acted out of a selfless and stiff upper lip sense of duty to endeavor to save what is left of the British Empire before Scotland and Northern Ireland might finally bolt given their already considerable opposition to BREXIT.

Today’s Sunday Times of London hard-hitting feature notwithstanding, Boris Johnson has long been hit with hard hitting and valid criticism.

And in an eerie parallel is Johnson’s modus operendi and which transcends his both familiar as well as eccentric approach to hair styling.

Then, and as was arguably only fitting after ignoring the pandemic, Boris Johnson became of its victims. 

“It’s ingrained in the British character to defer to Old Etonian buffoons.”

While some would have felt he deserved otherwise, Boris is currently recovering from his bout with COVID-19 and will thus eventually have to face the music for failing to heed clear and obvious warnings.

Simply put, Karma is without peer in the handing out of just desserts.
