What's going on with Piers Moron? I see people talking about him all over but I dunno why.
Anyway, the guy's record is fucking abysmal, insider trading with the City Slickers column, then fired for printing fake photos of soldiers torturing people in Abu Ghraib.... disappeared for a bit and then resurfaced in America and thinks that somehow it's all forgotten and he's ok. Well guess what, it aint forgotten and you're still a cunt.
Fair enough he's been critical of the government for their fucking round and lying and so on with covid but it's not exactly a difficult thing to be on the right side of... well, fair enough he's been very visible on this cos so many of his peers have been lacking, but he's a crook and a twat in my book.
In general, I don't get how people are so easily able to come back from things. With the Tories over the last few years you have Liam Fox who was taking his "friend" with him on government trips and negotiating deals that benefited them over the country and so he resigned for a bit, sat on the back bench for a while and then just pops up again and stands to be PM. I just don't understand the mentality they have that means they do that and I don't understand the laws and the system that we have that lets up. Sure if it's an error of judgment or a genuine mistake that's one thing, but when they have willfully chosen to put their own interests over ours that's something totally different, he (like Patel) have shown that they don't serve the country despite being elected precisely to just that, there should be no way back at all. At least with Moron he was working for one private company and then another, I guess they can take a gamble on him if they like - but with the government you should be done and dusted.
Anyway, to summarise Piers Morgan - not quite as bad as Liam Fox or Priti Patel, worse than almost anyone else.
