The only people who will get an actual glimpse of the race live are boatloads of migrants, who will have a clear view on their approach to Dover. That\u2019s them cheering in the background, \u2018give us a free house in Surrey\u2019, and there\u2019s a man on the cliffside watching through his binoculars who has given us a tip for the 1960s&#8217; Race at Haydock, which is odds-on favourite, They Should Have Listened to Enoch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">Described by some as the first nationalist race symbolising the inevitable, irredeemable, inexorable demise of globalism, and by Others as being sexist, what we do know is that it is the first race ever in which the horses will be wearing face masks, even if nobody else is.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">For those of you who have just joined us, from anywhere and everywhere, the police are providing a free taxi service to a hotel of your choice, for the rest of you who understand English, and there aren\u2019t many, but never mind we\u2019ll provide an interpreter, it\u2019s only money, this is a high-stakes race, the first one past the Vaccine Finishing Post not only out-prestiging everyone else in the civilised world, as well as those in Scotland, but also monopolising the coronavirus vaccine for his country and ensuring that their pharmaceutical sponsor makes mega-bucks whilst holding the world to ransom.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">Ahh, and now we see the horses approaching the starting gate. In a few moments, a billionaire philanthropist will fire the starting gun and the first Grand International Covid-19 &amp; Culture-Threat Vaccine Race will be underway.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">There goes the gun (blast, he missed himself!) and they\u2019re off! (I wondered where my wife was?) and the horses are off too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">And up front, but not so up front as we\u2019d like, it\u2019s China\u2019s Unnamed Unknown Vaccine, followed by Discredited HOO, odds-on favourite Oxford Fix close behind with Gay Parade too close behind for comfort as Labour Party falls back, but not far enough for some. And China\u2019s Unnamed Unknown Vaccine going like a bat out of hell, neck and neck with Conspiracy Theory as they approach Bills Gate. And in the black &amp; red face mask and German tin helmet its BioTank putting pressure on Rest of the World with Open Borders, Big Mistake and Murkal\u2019s Refugees crowding in the middle and everywhere else, whilst US Operation Warp Speed fails to trump False Liberal Media. Into the first hurdle and down goes Lockdown, Conservative Party unseating its rider, Nobody Cares and Who Gives A Toss on either side of LGBT, Tony Blair a casualty But He Doesn\u2019t Seem to Know It, as She\u2019s Got More Mouth Than a Cow\u2019s Got C\u2026 ridden by the Dwarf from the North thunders into fourth place. \u00a0False Liberal Media making difficult headway as they enter the Straight &amp; Narrow, with Selfish Brits Crowding Brighton Beach and Social Distancing now one metre, could be two, behind Confused Government Policy. There goes Statistics and its China\u2019s Unnamed Unknown Vaccine fighting it out with Poisoned Meat Market, Don\u2019t Believe It and Whose Laboratory as Mrs May\u2019s Highly Likely is overtaken by Truth, Porton Down and Unbelievable Story with outsider Russia\u2019s Vaccine closing the distance on \u00a0Collusion Complex and Clinton\u2019s Hacking Jacket an also and almost ran. Ahead now and quite round the bend Entire Liberal Media, closely pursued by Populist Vote, which surges into first place as Farage\u2019s Triumph sails merrily into the lead, threatening EU Dominance, pulling the plug on EU Court of Human Blights and Whose Democracy Is It? Common Sense is out of the race replaced by All Kinds of Liberal Agendas, Lost Heritage and Law &amp; Order Matters, and its Muggers Alley, Hand-Over Your Cash, LoL and Innit, and Churchill\u2019s Statue battling it out with Defund the Police as the race enters the final straight. \u00a0Black Lives Matters, Reputation in Tatters and Obsequious Corporate Policy making the running, in the opposite direction, alongside Fickle Government Policy and Overpaid Untalented Celebs all surprised by BREXIT.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">And its Bullshit, Bullshit and the Liberal Media, Bullshit, Russophobia, Bullshit and BBC Licence Fee hard pushed to pass They Won\u2019t Pay It with Historical Drama Revisionism tangling with Gender-Bending Dr Who and Sink Estate in a TARDIS as they round Diverse Psychosis Corner. And its Bullshit in the lead, Ballshit out in front, Ballshit trampling Anti-Vaxxer, Trump with Second Wind as he trounces Second Wave and yes, its \u2026 Wait one moment. News just in! Apparently, we\u2019ve just entered the third wave. Traditionally, it takes 10 to 15 years to develop a vaccine, so the finishing line has been moved to 2035 ~ stay tuned, stay in, stay safe and whatever you do don\u2019t back Nightmares.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\ud83d\ude09(Featured image Photo credit: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.publicdomainpictures.net\/pictures\/10000\/velka\/1-1239868251vifh.jpg\">https:\/\/www.publicdomainpictures.net\/pictures\/10000\/velka\/1-1239868251vifh.jpg<\/a>)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"color:#1200a3\" class=\"has-text-color\">Copyright \u00a9 2018-2020 Mick Hart.
