(not satire – it’s the Tories!)
Boris Johnson has closed 10 fire stations in London:
Protest as 10 London fire stations shut down
And now we learn Boris has requested water cannon for use against protesters in London:
Boris Wants Water Cannon For London’s Streets
So Boris says there’s not enough money for water to put out fires – but plenty for water to use against people.
Typical Tory logic.

The water only comes when you DON’T Need it, or when the government can blame it on someone else…..

Here’s all the proof you need about the Tories’ attitude to people. When they say they’re the party of freedom, it’s freedom for the rich, from responsibility for the people who made their wealth. For everybody else, it’s repression all the way – ranging from starving people of necessities like water to put out fires, to ensuring that the privileged have the ammunition to put down the masses if their policies create civil unrest.

Just another thing showing that this un-elected coalition are worried – they fear that the people are going to turn (I don’t know about that as we’ve all been cowards for over 3+ years).
There is definitely something afoot – something we aren’t aware of yet, but something is coming…

Exactly ………… Iain Duncan Smith saw active service in Northern Ireland and Rhodesia. Don’t laugh, this is serious. In 1992 he was elected MP for Chingford and from 1992-97 he was Secretary of the Conservative Back Bench Foreign & Commonwealth Affairs Committee. In 1997 he was relected to Parliament and became Shadow Foreign Secretary, then Shadow Defence Secretary from 1999. In September 2001, at the age of 47, he was elected Leader of the Conservative Party in the first-ever ballot of the Party’s membership. This is his first book. The beginning of the return ……….. to power ………. to lead the Conservative Party into OBLIVION ……….. You have been warned!!!!!!!!!

It’s simple really. People need to rush to the scene of fires and begin rioting. Problem solved.

Jed; the records seem to indicate IDS was a bag carrier and that he did not actually see active service…
Whether this is true or not (and if he did see action, how come he left the army still a lieutenant, albeit allowing CVs that refer to him as Captain?), it does seem that he lives in a world far from ours.

Something afoot…
I suggest that there is more social tension now than at any time since the 1920s and 30s (even including the Thatcher era, which itself is far from forgotten).
And back then many of the Tories were genuinely terrified that there was about to be a (bloody, vengeful) revolution – which is why, on the whole, they didn’t tear down the welfare state after 1951.
It must be dawning on even the thickest of them, now, that they are not loved. The problem is that the opposition has lost the solidarity and organisation of eighty years ago: maybe Johnson et al calculate that a good soaking will be enough to keep the scum in place.
Anyway, none of us ever have baths, so a dose of water is a good public health measure. He’ll probably be wanting to delouse us, too.

A few cannon balls heading for Parliament could be a good thing, perhaps the rebellious scots may be able to launch some from Balmoral?
