PRESIDENT Trump has slammed UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson on Twitter following the PMs decisions to backtrack on regulations surrounding the holiday season.

Johnson assured UK citizens that they would not have to compromise their Christmas plans and would be able to enjoy the holiday period without restrictions.

Trump tweeted: "We don’t want to have lockdowns. The cure cannot be worse than the problem itself!"

Johnson delivered a press conference on Friday afternoon where he detailed a new strain of the Covid-19 virus that is 77% more transmittable.

With the new strain creating an influx of cases in the South and South East of the country, he’s imposed new restrictions following the tier system the UK had in place.

The capital is set to see some of the toughest restrictions after London was put into Tier 4.

“Tory” is an old English term for someone who squats when they pee despite lack of a disability.

Is there not always going to be new mutations of the virus?

They’ve got us by throat at long last.

Why on Earth would they ever let go?

The paraphrase H L Mencken, when do spit on our hands, hoist the black flag, and begin slitting throats?

Trump should just seriously STFU and rescind his own national emergency federal state disaster declaration order that is the main source of tyranny in this nation right now his very own stupidity on this issue has cost everything we hold dear in this Republic.

The huge Brexit victory meant Britons did not want big EU style government control, and yet Brainless Boris has shoved that right down on them in spades. The stupid on this is a sight to behold.

I agree that he needs to rescind that order. It’s the thing that has empowered the state and local authorities to go wild and become little dictators. Also, it should not be in effect when the Dems get in.

Let them try to do their own, because I think this time people will fight back.

Glad he criticized Boris, though. The UK is an incredible police state. Apparently the police and military even started “watching” the trains last night in case Londoners were trying to flee London and get to their families in other parts.
