Can’t they drag it out to V.J day?
Aye and that's when the no deal with Europe will be announced along with our great deal with orange lunatic. The tories will want it a bank holiday and thereafter be called Boris day.
I wonder if the happy couple would have done the baby naming thing if the doctors who treated BloHard were both called Mohammed....
Surprised BJ hasn't arranged to be furloughed.... With the gov topping the pay up to 100% obvs.
It's not like he does **** all in number 10 anyway.
A PM avoiding all scrutiny while in government, just as he did during his election campaign. You get what you vote for.
There will be time, there will be time
To prepare a face to meet the faces that you meet;
There will be time to murder and create,
And time for all the works and days of hands
That lift and drop a question on your plate;
Time for you and time for me,
And time yet for a hundred indecisions,
And for a hundred visions and revisions,
Before the taking of a toast and tea.
Now Keir, now.
Now is the time to put the boot in.
Forget 'principles' this is politics. Now is the time to land a blow that no amount of skilful manipulation by Cummings can fully deflect.
I think the Mash has rather nicely nailed it today:

FFS he can't even read his own notes accurately! Did he just say no later than July 4th (for cafes/bars), when he must have meant no earlier?

Yep, he said that. The whole thing is deeply embarrassing.
You could almost hear the backroom boys shouting in his ear when he got virus and vaccine mixed up.
Looks like a comedian playing a straight role.
Duck, weave, blow hard then do a runner.

Thought I stumbled into the Trump thread by mistake ^^
I'll be ringing my Boris idolising mum later
No doubt his contradictory and confusing message will be glossed over because he said only "good old British common sense" is required and every patriot knows that their common sense is superior to everyone else's 🙄
I found this so funny as it's so bloody accurate!
Sorry,I can't embed twitter it would seem. With watching though!
Bibbly bing Boris
You wait around for ages for the one worst prime minister ever, then three come along all in a row.
I found evidence that Matt Lucas was doing Boris impressions back in the early 90s... bizarre
Dez, where did you dredge that up from?
Matt wearing school cap and wearing short trousers is johnson to a T.
Thanks
^ that is fantastic!!
Looks like Boris has managed to alienate most of the northerners he won over in the last election:
Revolt over easing of lockdown spreads as poll slump hits PM
The honeymoon is over.
Boris's whole life has been a series of (literal and metaphorical) honeymoons.

Shooting Stars repeats on Gold, had them sat on my Sky box for ages 😆

The Opinium/Observer poll tracker charts on that page are amazing. Does that reflect the Guardian readership?
Who are these people who think the govt has handled this crisis well??
2 in 5 still think they're doing a good job. Jeez....
Anyone heard from our pound shop Churchill of late?
Is he on holiday again?

Is it PMQ's today?
Oh wait, look!

In a way that is a good sign. If De Pfeffel is having to play an ace card like this just to distract from one PMQs they really are shitting themselves. You only get to play the card once.
You only get to play the card once.
I'm sure they can come up with a dukedom if they are really desperate.
Looking forward to PMQs today after seeing a couple of 'dog ate my homework' interviews from hapless ministers about track and trace this morning.
It's my birthday and all I want is for The Starmtrooper to give Dumbojo a good kicking.
May all your wishes come true on this special day, Zippy... 🙂
With popcorn I think I'll go savoury instead of sweet and have my lunch as soon as Johnson exits stage left
They played the card a day too early. Sir Tom's knighthood was last night's/this morning's news.
If Starmer gets some good shots in at PMQs at lunchtime, that will be the evening news sorted
'Pick for Britain'
Another wartime cliche. Jesus.
Personally, I can't wait for useless oaf to roll out the "we shall fight it in the hospitals" speech.
‘Pick for Britain’
Only one letter away from a true Boris slogan.
Rumours doing the rounds this morning are that our glorious leader might well be a no show today and he'll be sending human shield and regional photocopier salesman Dominic Raab out to face Starmer instead.
Would anyone be surprised? Its a week since he's been seen now

I would be be surprised if Cummings has come up with so.egging to try & deflect steamers attacks at PMQs
There's a Cameron line somewhere about losing PMQs when you exit to win.
What I find depressing is that so many people seem to be echoing Johnson's common sense slogan as an excuse for things going wrong
Obviously the 50,000 or so dead didn't have enough of it
https://twitter.com/BorisJohnson/status/1262439124507770880
Ah yes, that famous British common sense - the stuff we all used to decide "shouldn't we be doing lockdown right about now" - about two weeks ahead of Boris.
"get us through it" doesn't really mean very much does it now? It could mean that we had the worst virus death toll in Europe but some of us are still here, for instance... oh, wait...
so many people seem to be echoing Johnson’s common sense sloga
a) some people will say anything
b) 30% of people on Farcebook are not real
Only one letter away from a true Boris slogan.
"Peck for Britain"?
Let the kicking begin.
Live updates? Foreign national looking for some humour here...
He was calmly and systematically taken to the cleaners once again by Starmer.
The Tory MPs were trying to make some noise which resulted in the speaker telling little Matty Handjob to STFU or he’d be booted out of the chamber

Bless him. I didn't think he had it in him. Raaaaaaaaab and CumDom probably put him up to it like two bullies getting a dim kid to 'prove himself' before they let him in the gang.
What a wunch of bankers.
Live updates?
He's still a ****
Did he really say we'd have a 'world-beating' track and trace system by the end of the month? World-beating at being crap I can see, it being effective not so much.
Really poor performance that one.
