Bats**t conservative politics

Bonkers right wing politics is not the sole preserve of Donald Trump. Excerpts released from former UK prime minister Boris Johnson's forthcoming autobiography Unleashed reveal how he discussed with military officials the possibility of launching an "aquatic raid" on the Netherlands to retrieve 5 million doses of Covid vaccine. Johnson believed that these were being witheld by the EU in "retaliation" for Brexit and talked about covertly using rigid inflatable boats to navigate the canal system to a warehouse in Leiden where the drug would be "exfiltrated". One of his generals pointed out that the unusual operation would be easily detected during a period of lockdown and the UK would have to explain why it had effectively invaded a NATO ally.

The former PM admitted: “Of course, I knew he was right, and I secretly agreed with what they all thought but did not want to say aloud: that the whole thing was nuts.”

🤣🤣🤣
