PMQs followed by the briefing. BoJo cunningly consolidating all his work into one weekday again. Wonder what compliant scientist they’ll wheel out for the afternoon.

Yeah I wondered what had happened to him again. Maybe the fridge is too crowded.

He is busy working in the background on a series of UK world class/beating/leading initiatives that will take us out of this crisis and onto a glorious post EU world.

Surely half his party must hate the idle bastard?

When are they going to get him out?

So he’s coming out to tell us how he’s going to rescue the zoos....what’s the betting the next time we see him will be to tell us the pubs can open?

Our death rates from Covid19 have been at world leading level. Johnson did very his best to put us there.

Maybe less dangerous for the country if he does as little as possible, provided someone less useless steps up and does his job

and no, I don't mean bloody Cummings

When he got ill he should have designated a deputy to lead. That's what a good leader would have done, although of course he is not a good leader. He's terrified that any deputy would show him up. Of course that wouldn't have happened either, because this is a cabinet of inept yes-men/women who are only in their positions as pay off for supporting a no deal Brexit. They didn't want to have to deal with anything else at all, they are fucking it up because there are no leadership skills amongst the lot of them, no empathy and no humility.

If it wasn't killing people, it would be funny.

Agreed he's coming to tell us that we can all go to the fucking safari park on Monday and he'll be back again when we can go to the pub.

Lazy fat cunt.

This is what you get when vote for a clown to run the country.

Starmer just moans and moans and moans. Where was he when Labour got trashed in the last elections. He comes across as smug and a know it all!

I still think he is recovering and not up to working. The fact that I don't think he wanted to be stuck dealing with Brexit and now with Covid this is his out.
He can pop off and get someone with a bit more sense in charge are there any moderate Torys?

What a stupid remark - you mean 'moaning' about the terrible, avoidable death toll, 'moaning' about the chaos over schools, 'moaning' about Johnson's lazy, dishonest behaviour in all areas. There's plenty to 'moan' about - it's called Holding the Goverment to Account which is part of the job of The Official Opposition.

Thank god Starmer is doing his job unlike Bozo

Cannot believe Johnson can carry on the way he is and still people slag off Starmer.

Starmer absolutely puts Bozo to shame.

This government need holding to account. The questions need to be asked and thank god we've got someone who has the mental ability to ask them.

The fucking Monster Raving Loony Party couldn't have done worse if they'd won the election!

@snowballed. Andrew Neil has also tweeted today there is growing unease in the Tory party. I've not seen how Boris did at PMQ today.

Well to answer your question they wheeled out the two biggest idiots of all to support our mumbling / bumbling PM.

Honestly - watching those 3 bumbling idiots making it up as they go along has gone far enough.

Why don't they just fuck off and self isolate for the next 12 months and do us all a favour?

We do look sicker and sicker - we already have the worst death toll by far and are forecast to have the worst CV-related economic downturn in europe. Then there's Brexit - once again no plan, no competence, no honesty.

Tories may be uneasy but what are they going to do? They are not going to give a vote of no-confidence and Bozo won't be allowed to stand down while Cummings is in pulling his strings.
