Burning Injustices

Tumbledown Tessie, whose idea of draining the swamp of the British establishment was to appoint Boris Johnson to what was then one of the great offices of state, is to publish a screed titled The Abuse of Power. As one would expect, it appears that the lies, deceptions and stupidities surrounding Brexit (with Tumbledown Tessie's own triggering of the process, essentially as an act of party management, being prominent among the stupidities) will receive little or no attention. Instead, the authoress or her ghost writer will expose such institutional scandals as Hillsborough, Grenfell, the Daniel Morgan case and the fiend Putin's germ warfare in Salisbury, and will argue that "the powerful repeatedly chose to use their power not in the interests of the powerless but to serve themselves or to protect the organisation to which they belonged." It remains as yet unclear how many chapters will be devoted to the hijacking of the hostile environment by racists with insufficient devotion to the interests of its originator.
