That’s true, clearly worse than we have here in Denmark. Of course we also have stupid people here, but they are generally not exposed broad and wide on TV.
But UK is still no match for USA from what I have seen. But clearly it’s not a problem for a politician to be stupid and also be successful. Theresa May, Boris Johnson, and Liz Truss. Are all examples of that. It’s astounding that a known liar like Boris Johnson was allowed to lead UK to vote for Brexit.
30 years ago we had a party leader Svend Auken that was caught in an outright lie. That cost him his political career.
For fucks sake, Peter Hummelgaard is perfectly normal and rational, I’d even say moral person, and he is minister of justice, so of course he gets exposure.
Peter Hummelgaard who said that “We must break with the totally erroneous perception that it is everyone’s civil liberty to communicate on encrypted messaging services”.
And who eagerly keeps exposing the Danish population to the use of Palantir’s Gotham software by the police?
That is so stereotypical for anyone in his position. That’s not just him, I agree it’s a sad state of affairs, and I don’t know why this stupidity is so common. But that particular issue any other minister of justice would be more than 90% likely to have the same opinion, after they’ve been briefed by PET and FET or whatever cancer is behind it.
I really don’t think everyone in this role would be bending the country 90 degrees for the USA to have their way with it.
Especially when you want to appear in any way strongly opposed to them having their way with your colony.
Also, he is the one who (barely) rewrote ChatControl proposal to be able to push it again during the Danish presidency of the EU, so he’s actually occasionally a risk for the whole Union.
England has some pretty stupid people on TV regularly.

Peter Hummelgaard is a bitch for Palantir and still gets way too much exposure.

If you for instance read his May 1. speech, yoyu can see he is very sensible.

Is this sarcastic?

Any examples? I’m in Ireland, and none in the UK would come close to the stupidity of some of the Americans in my opinion.
