Hall Of Shame: Week ending 5th February 2023

 

It's time for the miscreants, mountebanks and maniacs, the irrepressible and the irredeemable. It's not totally serious, it's not totally silly, but it is this week entries into the Live & Direct Hall Of Shame!

A Dishonourable Mention to Bill Cash, Tory MP for Brexit. He's accused the BBC of lying about the reasons why we haven't seen any Brexit benefits. Instead he chose to blame Covid and the War In Ukraine as to why. Bill, when you see one of these supposed Brexit benefits, can you please point it out to the rest of us? At the moment, we're looking for flying pigs, unicorns and dragons!!!

The Bronze goes to our current Prime Minister Rishi Sunak and Talk TV's Piers Morgan. Sunak gave an interview to Piers, where he claimed he wasn't rich, but “Financially fortunate”. This is what happens when rich people talk about their own wealth, they don't know just how wealthy they actually are. Why is Piers Morgan on here though? Well during that interview he apparently wasn't having a good time of it, as his microphone went wrong. We could still hear him though, worse luck!!!

The Silver to Andrew Tate, who is still languishing in a Romanian jail cell after being denied his appeal to be released from detention, again. You know, I always thought that Alpha Males never whined and complained about anything, they just got on with it. Andrew on the other hand seems to do nothing but complain.

But our Fool's Gold award winner this week is former Prime Minister Liz Truss, the one who was outlasted by a lettuce. She gave an interview to the Sunday Telegraph, where she claimed that she believed she was “brought down by the left wing economic establishment”. Liz, I hate to break this to you, but the economic establishment isn't exactly left wing. It leans to the right, towards maintaining the status quo, and your mini budget wasn't maintaining the status quo, it was radical and full of things that gave the economic establishment a certifiable case of the jitters. “Left wing economic establishment”!!! Mind you, when you're that far out on the extreme right, I suppose even centre right looks like left wing!!!

Liz “left wing economic establishment” Truss, now and forever inducted into the not totally serious Live & Direct, Hall Of Shame!
