Despite this BBC headline – which implies this entire affair is the product of a Muslim ex-MP – in fact, this case involved many non-Muslim “White” people who were quite happy to take advantage of the Tory mismanagement of the country during this national emergency. The Tories threw money at the already rich – closing down all GP Surgeries (depriving the working-class of all broad medical care) – whilst simultaneously ensuring that supermarkets remained open so that the capitalists could still make money. Furthermore, the Prime Minister – Boris Johnson – when he contracted Covid-19, was taken into the exclusive top floor of St Thomas NHS Hospital, where 10 nurses were allocated for his first-class “private care”. Any NHS staff who knew about this were forced to sign a waiver stating that if they told any outside agency about the PM “refusing” NHS care – because he was afraid it would not work (to be clear, NHS premises were utilised to provide Johnson with “private” healthcare) – they risked being suspended, and/or sacked from their job. Meanwhile, the Tories gave tree-months of rent to landlord’s for each of their sitting tenants – with the idea that these landlords could be trusted with passing-on this rent-break to their tenants. Although some did this, many did not (pocketing the extra rent whilst still taking the rent due from the tenants). To date, no landlords have been charged for committing this breath-taking financial fraud that deprived the poorest people in the UK of just 3 months of rent relief. Although Covid-19 was a genuine national emergency – and that the vaccines prevented millions of deaths – the political far-right and right-wing use news stores like this to reinforce their false narrative that Covid-19 was a myth and that vaccines cause the illnesses they are developed to prevent (about 10% of people sometimes suffer complications from vaccines – this is an issue that needs reducing and eliminating).
