Okay, but let’s just say for arguments sake that if you say “deep state” to most Brits they think you’re talking about politicians in hock to private enterprises, not businesses in hock to government.

The Big Four accounting firms, the high street banks, hedge funds and other “too big to fail” businesses with Tory grandees on their boards.

Private health in the UK, stuffed to the brim with Tory politicians voting to line their own pockets.

A village pub that got millions of pounds of contracts from Boris’ government to supply PPE to the NHS when their business was actually in serving beer.

Private rail companies with Tory transport ministers as shareholders, accidentally forgetting to declare their commercial conflict of interest.

South West One, awarded a massive 10+ year contract. Major investor: the spouse of the guy who awarded the contract.

Let’s have a definition of “Deep State” that makes sense to the British taxpayer, first. Because without it, you might as well be saying ignore the problem in front of you, and focus on hypothetical lizard men from Arcturus.

Denial ain't just a river in Egypt, eh...
