That's right. They aren't. Which is why Tory politicians maybe shouldn't say them, right?

You think I made that up? Have you even been following the news on brexit?

Are you aware that Priti Patel, the UK's Minister for Overseas Development publicly wondered why the possibility of food shortages in Ireland post-brexit "has not been pressed to our advantage in negotiations with the EU"?

A goddamn government minister raised the spectre of The Famine as a potential negotiating strategy with the EU.

And you're suggesting it's MY PARODY of that which is unhelpful?

Seriously?
