Apart from failure to secure food supply, failure to control the pandemic, failure to get us working, failure to get us travelling, stealing our money on an epic scale, dividing us bitterly, and killing 150k of us, it's been a top government so far.
Apart from alienating the Scots, alienating the Irish, alienating all of Europe, making buying from Europe a costly nightmare, making selling to Europe a costly nightmare, and establishing the UK as a bad-faith actor on the world stage, it's been a great show so far.
Apart from abandoning the norms of the unwritten British constitution, lying to the Queen, thwarting our sovereign parliament, overtly breaking laws, clamping down on protest, brushing away legal and electoral scrutiny - oh and lying all day long - it's been a decent govt so far.
Apart from starving the NHS of funds and offering claps instead of cash for the heroes who risked, and even gave, their lives; apart from throwing families into dependency on food banks and denying hungry kids food until challenged by a footballer, the regime's done us proud.
Apart from boycotting challenging BBC programmes even in a national emergency, attacking the BBC, defunding the BBC, infiltrating the BBC, muzzling the BBC, boycotting C4 News, selling Channel 4, and giving instant access to a new right wing channel, it's been upright, open govt.
