Struck Out

Enemies of the people have once more conspired to subvert the entrepreneurial Britishness of the sunlit uplands. The high court has quashed measures brought in by Calamity Kwarteng, who was Minister for Profiteering at the time, to undermine the right to strike. Kwarteng was told that the policy would be of negligible benefit in the short term and probably counter-productive, and therefore pressed ahead, apparently out of a burning moral urge to protect the public against members of the public. The high court judgement acknowledges that, as befits the fiscal clown of the La Truss régime, Kwarteng showed little interest in mere evidence, disdained to consult anyone who might complicate the issue with traitorous remainery wokishness, and in his general approach was "so unfair as to be unlawful and, indeed, irrational." Apparently the high court considers all this to be somehow disadvantageous, which demonstrates just how far out of touch with genuine British values it has become.
