Ongoing list of absolute shit we’re being put through for the sake of the parasite’s funeral:
-Shops, supermarkets, takeaways, restaurants, food banks (fucking FOOD BANKS) will shut. if Monday is your grocery shop day prepare to starve
-you have a non essential medical appointment that you’ve waited months/years for? Think again!
-did I mention food banks shutting? The things fucking starving people rely on to eat? Food banks?
- still have to go to work and rely on public transport? Uhhhhhh good luck with that
- if you’re supposed to be staying at a holiday resort like centre parks they will just… kick you out so they can shut.
- standing in the wrong place with a blank sign will now get you arrested, apparently
- fucking. The richest parasite in the commonwealth and we are shutting FOOD BANKS in her honour. FOOD BANKS-
-its been said before and not to labour the point but. People are going to freeze this winter because they’re unable to pay heating bills. People are going to DIE. Could we possibly spend this funeral money on them instead? n o p e
- oh at least when Charles gets all the queen’s money he’ll give back to the economy by paying inheritance tax on it- HA. HA HA. AND, IF I MAY ADD, HA.
-no, the multimillionaires will not be paying inheritance tax. They worked very hard to ensure that.
-F O O D. B A N K S.

It literally took all day to collect a single prescription for my mum;
Went down to boots pharmacy this morning, no pharmacist so nobody can get their prescriptions or any over the counter medicine.
Went down in the afternoon, queued for half an hour, turns out the pharmacy at the gp surgery had locked it so I couldn’t collect it from boots.
The pharmacy at the gp has no products on the shelves so I can’t get the prescription from there. It turns out I can’t phone them to ask them to unlock the prescription because their phone lines have been cut off because they didn’t pay the bill.
I have to drive up there, queue for another 20 minutes to ask them to unlock the prescription, then drive back down to boots to then ask them to prepare it.
Another 30 minutes later I finally have the prescription. There are several other people who I’ve seen travelling between both pharmacies (which are a 15 minute drive and 1 hour walk apart) to get their medicine. What the fuck are you supposed to do if you don’t have literal hours to spare.
People are being told they can’t have vital medicines because they’re not in stock or because the computer system has fucked up, after they’ve already been waiting days.
This country is a fucking shambles.

Christian Horner is discussing Diversity and inclusion with the Tories - a situation so ironic it literally has to be seen to be believed (Original source- his own Instagram)
Incase you still needed ample proof Horner is a piece of shit.
Side note- Red Bull and Horner work with the incredibly right wing U.K. Conservative Party frequently but it’s still George that gets called a Tory? I’m so fuckin done with this bullshit

“This is our country’s saddest day” says fucking Boris Johnson. It’s not what about the thousands of people you let die daily during a pandemic.

The U.K.: "We are afraid to announce that her majesty, Queen Elizabeth, is no longer with us."

Damn, not sure how to feel about Trust being the new PM. She seems problematic just based off that short vid u posted.
Truss is a Thatcherite and an ideologue with some extremely socially conservative views. On my opinion out of all the candidates, only Rees-Mog would have been worse. Honestly though, the mere fact that she’s come out of the Tory party is enough of an indication that she is not on the side of the people.

Who wants to see the tories new poster
Tumblr media
The car is owned by a Canadian company, the ship is Swiss, the plane is 50 years old, the football team have never won anything, the king has cancer, and the prime minister was never elected hell he was his party’s second choice after Liz truss,
also we haven’t been the second most powerful country in almost a century but even if we were the pride in the mediocrity of coming second to the USA a country teetering on the brink of Fascism, actively supporting a genocide, and which will likely not exist in its current form by the end of my life

The new PM here in the U.K. (who is going to be sworn in soon) is gonna be the worst omfg I read up on her policies and not only does she want to unban fracking but she wants to reduce money going into green/solar research! And that’s only the start. Fucking hate the U.K. sometimes omg
Legit never thought I’d say this but..even Boris Johnson thinks she’s wrong to make fracking legal again. What the fuck?

Image description: A screenshot of Harper’s review of the Queen’s death. In Great Britain, Queen Elizabeth II died at 96, ending a seven-decade reign. Parliament was suspended, soccer matches, fashion shows, and labor strikes were canceled, church bells were muffled, 96-round gun salutes rang out, and drug dealers offered discounts on cocaine and ketamine. In her final public acts, the queen accepted the resignation of former prime minister Boris Johnson, who, in a farewell speech, compared himself to a booster rocket and Cincinnatus, a Roman politician who returned from retirement as a dictator, and appointed as the new prime minister Liz Truss, who was supported by 0.3 percent of the electorate and who in 1994 described hereditary rule as “disgraceful.” Millions across the world mourned the queen, who refused to apologize for the monarchy’s role in slavery and colonialism, shaped legislation to exempt herself from racial and sexual discrimination laws, renewable-energy laws, and police searches, and didn’t pay income or capital gains taxes for over 40 years despite having an estimated net worth of over $500 million. “Our values have remained and must remain constant,” said the new king, Charles III, who does not have to pay inheritance tax. News of Charles’s accession was taken across Britain by heralds on horseback and to the Buckingham Palace bees by the royal beekeeper. “You knock on each hive and say, ‘The mistress is dead, but don’t you go. Your master will be a good master to you,’” he said. A Canadian citizenship ceremony was delayed after officials were confused about whom to swear allegiance to, a woman was arrested for holding up a sign that said fuck imperialism, abolish the monarchy, and an 89-year-old woman who worked as an Elizabeth lookalike announced that she would retire.Prince Andrew, a friend of Jeffrey Epstein who this year settled a lawsuit accusing him of sexually assaulting a 17-year-old girl, will receive the queen’s corgis.
