Boris Johnson is trending and while I hate him with every fibre of my being for reasons everyone else shares, I have a personal reason. Deeply personal. I was stuck in Spain for COVID. Already had an evil dose of it very early on. High risk. I knew with absolute conviction what we were dealing with. Thing is, I felt safe in Spain. There were roadblocks with machine guns. There were no crowds in parks or beaches. Within a matter of weeks the curve was flattened. We had adults in charge. Populists by definition cannot make unpopular decisions, and a pandemic is literally a non-stop series of unpopular decisions that need to be made. Must be made. Watching the absolute farce that unfolded in the UK was unreal. I was in a country taking real measures using science, while the leader of the UK was literally saying in public that it didn't exist. The it was 'just flu'. Then appearing without masks (intentionally) and saying he'd take a dose live on TV. I mean, not just the most obscene claptrap but also you could see the UK was palpably about 6 weeks behind the rest of the world. And gradually, slowly, the COVID map of europe shed the red parts, the orange parts, soon Europe was shades of green. Not the UK of course. Still red zones. Mostly orange. One of the reasons Boris Johnson was so inept is Brexit. He prioritised it over COVID. Things were looking OK, right wing Spaniards were demanding things open up. Normality was looming. And Boris Johnson went to India. Boris was in trade negotiations for Brexit with India's far right Gvt. India had the Delta Variant. India had the most brutal circumstances for an outbreak imaginable. India was dying by the thousands daily. As part of keeping India's far right sweet, Boris Johnson personally left the travel corridor with India open. No other nation on earth did. Tens of thousands of wealthy Indians with the Delta Variant flooded into the UK. Suddenly the COVID map changed, London went red, then black. Glasgow went black. Boris was advised not just to shut the travel corridor with India. It was discovered that Delta was THREE HUNDRED TIMES the viral load of the Alpha Variant. It was a monster. And Boris Johnson may as well of brought it in his hand luggage in a jar. And what did he do when told of this? He opened all the stadiums for the football and then, unbelievably, opened all travel corridors and gave Brits infected with Delta the green light. "Everybody go on holiday har har ho ho!" cried jolly Boris. Fully advised as to what this meant. And within a week that COVID map of Europe showed a strange change. Much of it still green. No orange at all. But patches of red and even black in some spots. Guess which spots? Favourite holiday spots for the British. And within 2 weeks of this - I got the Delta Variant, spent 3 weeks in hell trying to isolate while deranged with hypoxia, eventually emergency services having to break in, helicopter me to Majorca (Ibiza hospital overrun with sick Brits) 2 months in a coma. Nearly 2 years of complications. I lost all my muscles to atrophy in my 50s. I lost everything. I could do nothing for the key 2 years after the worst of COVID. And I had to pay for it all. Tens of thousands. I escaped with nothing but my life. And a day doesn't pass that I don't count myself very lucky... Nor does a day pass when I do not curse the name of Boris Johnson. Vile, lying filth. At least a quarter of a million dead by his hands. Could be double that for all we know. This is what I think when I see that name trending. Boris Johnson? mass murderer.
