English term or phrase: omnishambolic
Definition from Oxford Dictionary:
Adjective: A situation that has been comprehensively mismanaged, characterized by a string of blunders and miscalculations. First used in the British satirical television series The Thick of It.

Example sentence(s):
  • Ken could still win. Anger at the Prime Minister and his omnishambolic administration could still tip the scales. The Telegraph
  • On charities, the reality is that the Prime Minister is not making the rich worse off. He is making charities worse off. Over the past month we have seen the charity tax shambles, the churches tax shambles, the caravan tax shambles and the pasty tax shambles, so we are all keen to hear the Prime Minister’s view on why he thinks, four weeks on from the Budget, even people within Downing Street are calling it an omnishambles Budget. Parliament of the United Kingdom

batërdisur kokë e këmbë


Definition from Leonard Newmark's Alb to Eng Dictionary:
BATËRDIS kal. bised.
Dëmtoj rëndë, prish, shkatërroj keq, rrënoj; dërrmoj. Arat i batërdisi breshri.
I batërdisën me të ngrënë e me të pirë. Na batërdisi dimri.

Example sentence(s):
  • “Ec e gjeje pse u pëlqen Shqipëria e batërdisur”, Rama debaton në Facebook për turistët. - Lexo.com.al  
  • Verbëria antiurbane e kryeministrit krijoi Shqipërinë e batërdisur nga ndërtimet pa leje. - Gazeta Tema  

Explanation:
Fjala në anglisht është përdorim relativisht i ri dhe, si i tillë, kërkon një shtim/krijim të ri edhe në shqip. Meqenëse këto krijime nuk ekzistojnë, po i përmbahem fjalës më të përafërt në fjalor, por më saktësisht përkthimi duhet të ishte një fjalë e përbërë si: gjithëbatërdisur, plotbatërdisur, krejtbatërdisur.
