German press labels Brexit ‘big clusterf*** of the Tories’

A German publication called jungle.world have labelled Brexit 'the big clusterfuck of the Tories' and fair enough, it is a clusterfuck

Straight to the point, the Germans don’t fuck about

The UK has never been more divided. A binary choice that we made almost three years ago has split us right down the middle, with very few people willing to be convinced that they might have been misled.

But whichever way you voted in the 2016 EU referendum, we can all agree that it’s not exactly gone to plan, has it? Some may describe it as a circus, others might opt for the word shambles,. The Germans have gone with ‘clusterfuck’ to describe the current Brexit situation in a brutally honest piece of reporting.

The website jungle.world published an article outlining the situation as it stands, with the headline: ‘Der große clusterfuck der Tories’.

Now, I didn’t do German at school, but it doesn’t take a genius to work out what it means (the Tories’ big clusterfuck’).

It speaks volumes about our image to the rest of the world when foreign press are savagely destroying our government like this. We have become a laughing stock. But don’t worry: £350m extra for the NHS is on its way.
