He obviously knew it would cause a bit of a stink but he said it anyway.

Donald Tusk is a carpenter's son from Poland. He grew up with gun battles on his street, ran with anti-communist gangs, was imprisoned by the Soviets and helped win Poland’s autonomy.
He has precisely zero fucks to give about Brexiteer Tories accusing him of “lacking manners.”— Alan Ferrier (@alanferrier) February 6, 2019

Anyone losing their precious shit over Tusk’s comment would have been interned for spreading panic in the world war they weirdly think they’d have won a VC in (had they been born when it was fought)

A great way to prove Donald Tusk wrong would be to publish a thought-through, practical, costed plan for Brexit.

if I were Tusk I would have started every statement in the past year with a big sip from a bottle of scotch and "listen up you cunts" so if anything I admire his restraint

Donald Tusk calls out liars who wilfully misled people. Liars respond by wilfully misleading people about what Tusk said.
