I usually find all the political shit I need in Starmer’s barmy army, but I have to make an exception for this bullying, incompetent, shady copyright infringing do nothng slimy excuse for a minister.
Our Grant, after having been found out in a number of dodgy businesses under an assumed name, would have been much better left on the back benches where he could have operated his scams, much in the way the unlamented Keith Vaz did.
He has had numerous and various ministerial posts, all of which he has ballsed up, but now, we come to what must be the nadir of his third rate career:
Low battery: Britishvolt on life support in blow to UK’s tech ambitions
Britain is – perhaps was – at the forefront, on the cusp, of a genuine and innovative new industry, but like TV and computers before them, what started in the UK is likely to be taken over by the Chinks, Japs or America.
The situation is this: Boris promised (I am sure in good faith) £100 million to Britishvolt to develop high volume battery production for all the electric cars the eco loonies are forcing on us. It’s a scam but we deserve to cash on it, as it is an international scam. They needed the first £30 million payment, and oily Robert Webb lookalike Schapps turned down their request, which means the company -IF it survives – will probably have to sell a majority controlling share to an overseas corporation.
How on earth did this greedy, self-centred excuse for a man become a minister for anything?. I wouldn’t even give him Minister for Culture, Media and Sport, where all he would have to have done was to grin inanely in front of the Lesbian English Football Team, and perhaps sniff their knckers in the locker room while lubing himself up for a good wank.
Just as :Labour destroyed ICL* in the late 60s which was taken over by the Japs then broken up to make it pointless, so Schapps is likely to do with this new industry and I assume Rishi and Jeremy Cunt will let him do it, while they continue to tip money into the bottomless pit that is HS2 which will allow businessmen to get to Birmingham 18 minutes quicker.
What a motherfucker!
* ICL – International Computers Ltd was an amalgam of Lyons, Sperry Rand and other small UK computer manufacturers. doing steady business which the brainless Tony Benn thought would be “better together” – he was wrong – they all pulled in different drections and finally it was such a basket case one of the Jap manufacturers bought the remains for a pittence. I know – I was there.
