 🧠📉You’ve got to laugh—if you don’t, you’ll scream into your cold tin of beans. Government ministers, those well-fed, chauffeur-driven brain trusts with more degrees than the weather forecast, are now publicly declaring that the very laws they wrote—on welfare, pensions, and support systems—don’t work.

You know, the laws they passed, enforced, and took credit for when they were rolled out with a ribbon and a press release. Now, they’re pointing at them like confused tourists in a museum exhibit titled: “What idiot did this?” 🖼️👀

🤡 The Architects of Failure Are Shocked By the Building Falling Down

Let’s break it down:

You spend years designing a system (Universal Credit, Triple Lock, Sanctions, etc).

You fund it, pass it, brag about it.

Then, with a straight face, you pop up on national TV and say:

“Actually, this isn’t working.”

That’s not reform. That’s political amnesia.

That’s blaming the fire on the smoke alarm you took the batteries out of.

And they expect us to clap for them for realising it.

This is like the arsonist coming back to the ashes and saying, “Hmm. Looks like someone should have done something.” 🔥🤷‍♂️

And yet these are the people who lecture pensioners about “affordability,” wag fingers at the unemployed, and insist young people work harder—for less. All while quietly acknowledging they don’t know how any of this actually works.

They’ve exposed themselves, and it’s not just embarrassing—it’s dangerous. Because when the ones running the system admit they don’t understand it, the system becomes a roulette wheel with real lives on the line. 🎰💥

🤯 Challenges 🤯

Are we being governed by well-dressed seat-warmers pretending to understand spreadsheets?

Is this incompetence, arrogance—or both with a £90K salary and subsidised lunch?

💬 We want your rants, roasts, and razor-sharp wisdom in the comments. Let’s call out the circus for what it is.
