Detailní informace

Hands, face, space. Curfews. Don''t drink. Bend your knees. Conform, obey, comply - surrender. British life has become infested by bossiness.
Boris Johnson won power as one of life''s free-wheelers but his first year as PM saw a fever of finger-wagging. The real pandemic? Passive-aggressive ninnying by politicians, scientists and officialdom.

Bang! They all take a barrel. And then there''s publicity-prone plonker Matt Hancock posing for photographs while doing his ''Mr Fit'' press-ups. Reasonable people have had enough of being bossed about. And when reasonable people stop respecting the law, society has a problem.Více...
