PM Boris Johnson - monster thread for a monster twat

[Steel Icarus]

National hero. Delivered Brexit, saw off Corbyn. And of course he survived covid too. What's not to like.

Is just an example of bread and circuses? If legalising all drugs were to come from this, there would at least be a silver lining to this I guess!

I know, I was just joking - psylocybin has so much therapeutic potential, ketamine too. It does need to be legalised for research and treatment, if not recreational use.
I am currently reading an excellent book on this by Michael Pollan called How To Change Your Mind

It's actually pretty much a non-story. An MP has asked for the issue to be looked into, so the inference is that Johnston is doing that, although there's no evidence of it. Meanwhile, various other government departments spit out the usual "drug" boilerplate. Nothing to see here.

...that crossed my mind too, another related story floated by the guardian was looking into music being used in psychedelic therapies, if this came about it would probably just mean a new income stream for big music publishing companies...

Countdown to ecstasy: how music is being used in healing psychedelic trips

Jon Hopkins timed his upcoming album to the length of a ketamine high, while apps are using AI music to tailor drug experiences. Welcome to a techno-chemical new frontier

Well done Nick Robinson, someone needs to cut through the obfuscation bluster bluff and ballshit, that's just his style as an interviewer. Nadine Dorries should hang her head in shame, threats to journalists like that is the behavior of a nazi

Has anyone noticed the weird gaslighting by Tory MPs to folks that politely criticise their choices?

For example.

Like they've been given a set form of words for their press briefings and they'll use them irrespective of what the original comments tone was. The thick fuckers can't think for themselves, they are gobshit automatons.

Sounds like Johnson is getting on board with the penguin plan. Who says u75 has no influence?

Recycling plastics does not work, says Boris Johnson

The Recycling Association responds by saying Boris Johnson has "completely lost the plastic plot".

www.bbc.co.uk

Mr Johnson said it was "so sad", and quipped: "We could feed some of the human beings to the animals."

Ms Steele replied: "We could have a vote later and ask if there's any candidates."

I tracked down footage of those comments. It gives me hope for the future that this positive suggestion was delivered in front of a bunch of children acting as journalists.

Skip to about the 20 minutes 30 seconds mark for the comments with a little bit of context:

Is he giving a rousing speech for COP26? Who's he going to quote? Magic Roundabout: How do we save the world - goodnight zebedee boing boing?

Himself probably. ‘Let the bodies pile high’.

Do not sully the Magic Roundabout by associating it with BoJo.
