Bruce McPherson @brucemcpherson.bsky.social · 01/07/2026Here's the deal that gave us brexit. They both get 1m, Farage gets Brexit without the consequences and can blame others for the shitshow,takes his shorting profits and absconds with Brexit party candidate fees. Johnson gets to be PM. Boris's dad pays for the meal and fine wine. 034

Bruce McPherson @brucemcpherson.bsky.social · 11/05/2026After Truss, Johnson, Starmer and a looming Farage I'm not sure what the definition of prime ministerial even is nowadays. The position no longer commands much respect, even from their own supporters. Whatever it is, none of the current contenders in any party seem to inspire it. 100

Bruce McPherson @brucemcpherson.bsky.social · 10/05/2026In Scotland we vote for a constituency msp. There are also regional seats, allocated proportionally from a 'losers list' of those that have been rejected by the electorate. Reform had zero elected candidates,yet brag endlessly about being 'elected', when they've just been selected from a loser list. 000

Bruce McPherson @brucemcpherson.bsky.social · 23/04/2026Presumably everyone now agrees that Liz Truss is clearly a raging lunatic. Many of those that were in her cabinet and orbit are now in reform, this time with a grifting con man as their boss. What drives these people to make these startling errors of judgement. 021
