AIBU to think our government is almost like a soap opera?

Not that long ago I couldn't have named more than 2 ministers, never mind any advisers. Now we are pretty much fluent on at least 20 of them plus own MPs plus occasionally their partners or even lovers.

Or maybe I should stop watching the news?...

Yes.
But you can roll your eyes and turn a (badly acted) soap opera off.
These clowns are affecting our lives.

Yes but if only it were fiction.

The bad guys usually get their comeuppance in soaps, but the government seems to promote them. Any hope of a Christmas Day special where we see them meet an appropriate end*?

Well, it clearly is building up to Christmas.

My best guess is that travel corridors to Carribbean will open so Boris can go on holiday....

A bad Latin American soap opera...

Yes. Or the first half hour of a crappy film about how revolutions & coups etc happen.
