How many kids does Boris have?

57 replies

TheQueef · 09/12/2019 10:10

What is the alleged total and just how many is he questioning?

I know no one can say certainly but are we talking several, one?

Hester i would think it probably mattered to his wife when he was off having kids with other women.

To me personally, no it doesn't matter one jot, but don't you think it gives a good insight in to what kind of a person this man is? A man that thinks he is fit to run our country.

Hester54 · 09/12/2019 11:18

nancy75 that’s private business between them two, only they know what state their relationship was in, plenty of people on her will have been in the same situation

No Hester it does matter.
A good barometer of character is how people treat their own.
Having many children doesn't mean anything, not does chucking a few quid at them.
Needing injunctions and or denying parentage is very questionable, even when you aren't PM.

nancy75 A good insight in to what this person is, he obviously very good at charming certain types of women into bed

nancy75 · 09/12/2019 11:21

Hester, yes plenty of women on here have probably been in a similar situation, and look at what the general consensus is on their cheating husbands.

IWorkAtTheCheesecakeFactory · 09/12/2019 11:22

How many would want to claim him as their father, that’s the question.

Hester54 · 09/12/2019 11:23

TheQueef If it doesn’t matter, why keep on about it, are you not questioning the morals of our fellow women that slept with him while married, took no precautions and happily had the child.

Hester54 · 09/12/2019 11:25

nancy75 Us women are as equally to blame, it takes two to tango or what ever

nancy75 · 09/12/2019 11:25

Those women that had his child/children are not running to be the leader of the country

AuntSpiker · 09/12/2019 11:25

Men in power eh? We've got Boris and his unknown number of children (yuk), and Jezza, 3 times married and that very unsavoury episode with a young Diane Abbott.

I don't really go on about it, admittedly I am curious by the refusal to give an answer and concerned that there could be at least one woman out there who isn't allowed to talk about her relationship or child because the PM has his wallet out.

Afaik the only woman asking to be PM isn't being coy about it.
I don't think she's an ex of the PM.

True, but I'm surprised she ever managed to get pregnant, given her nebulous grasp of sex and biology Grin

HumousWhereTheHeartIs · 09/12/2019 11:49

If these secrets are being kept for the child's sake then I couldn't care less. But, unfortunately, I doubt that is the case.

WeshMaGueule · 09/12/2019 11:52

He's also responsible for at least one aborted pregnancy as a result of an affair.

longwayoff · 09/12/2019 11:55

Do shut up about Abbot. 2 unattached young people having a relationship is not remarkable. Having a PM shacked up in no 10 with his latest at taxpayers expense is. As is his history of random paternity. And everything else. See Chris Patten's comments. Or Peter Oborne, John Major, Heseltine et al. Dangerous Marxists all? No. Lifelong Tories all of them.

AuntSpiker · 09/12/2019 12:02

Why should I shut up about Abbott and Corbyn? Bringing your mates into your bedroom to show off your latest - sleeping - conquest. Id say that's remarkable, but I suppose we all have different standards.

Warmfirechocolate · 09/12/2019 12:12

A good barometer of character is how people treat their own. That is really true, and funnily enough women are much more harshly judged on this.

Boris isn’t a man who has tried hard with his relationships and they have failed. He’s a man who doesn’t care about his responsibilities, is all about himself, will lie and has no integrity.

Too right I think this is bad for a man running the country!

longwayoff · 09/12/2019 12:21

@AuntSpiker. You should shut up because it's very boring and ostensibly untrue regarding speculative motivation. What I find remarkable is that your standards encompass endorsing what you appear to believe is a valid comparison between behaviours that aren't comparable.

John1971 · 09/12/2019 12:33

I checked on the Fact Check web site (AKA Conservative Party Central Office). They said they didnt know how many children Boris has fathered and neither does he.

AuntSpiker · 09/12/2019 12:44

You can tell me to shut up as much as you want, but fortunately Mumsnet, and discussions in general, don't work like that Grin. Both behaviours are unacceptable, it's not Strictly, I didn't rank them, but if I can find my paddles, happy to do so. Who knows, I might even score Boris lower than Jezza.

FWIW I loathe them both. I can't ever remember having such a desperately poor choice of 'leaders' (hollow laugh).

Baaaahhhhh · 09/12/2019 12:45

Do shut up about Abbot. 2 unattached young people having a relationship is not remarkable

One just separated from his wife.... and actually I find it a bit creepy that the "lover" then turns up on the front benches. Or is that me being over sensitive?

longwayoff · 09/12/2019 12:59

Then we agree @AuntSpiker.

AuntSpiker · 09/12/2019 13:02

Does that mean I don't have to shut up now Grin

longwayoff · 09/12/2019 13:05

Definitely over sensitive @Baaaahhhhh do have a look at BJ's shagging one's colleagues record. There's one in residence at No 10 in case you've missed that.

longwayoff · 09/12/2019 13:12

@AuntSpiker, well, er, yes. I was unnecessarily snippy. My apologies. Roll on Friday, come what may, heaven help us whatever happens.Xmas Grin
