No one can say we weren’t warned about criminally incompeten­t charlatan now resident at Number 10

-

A JUNE 24, 2019 online article has the headline: ‘I was Boris Johnson’s boss. He is utterly unfit to be Prime Minister: Max Hastings.’

Hastings continues: “But his premiershi­p will almost certainly reveal a contempt for rules, precedent, order and stability.”

This helps us make sense of the care home crisis, NHS staff dying from Covid-19, the lack of PPE and tens of thousands of potentiall­y avoidable UK Covid-19 deaths.

“The writing is on the wall” is a commonly used idiom, being derived from a judgment passed on King Belshazzar in The Book of Daniel.

Daniel is one of the four major prophets of the Old Testament (along with Isaiah, Jeremiah and Ezekiel).

At only 12 chapters Daniel is a relatively rapid read; but we might wish to stop at the point in chapter six, where we read: “Mene, mene, tekel, parsin.”

The days of the political kingdom of Boris Johnson are numbered. Boris has been weighed and found wanting; the days of Boris in power will be brought to an end.

The criminal incompeten­ce of Boris

Johnson, which has cost so many innocent lives, is meticulous­ly analysed at appeasemen­t.org.

The people of Northern Ireland were served notice of this man’s inhumanity when we saw his regime try to inflict a liberally insane abortion settlement on us.

We should celebrate the public humiliatio­n and impending dismissal of one of the worst Prime Ministers ever to sit in Downing Street. Eviction from office cannot come quickly enough.
