Maybe he's peed off cos the Government is getting sued for unnecessary deaths in carehomes by bereaved family members!

Sostenueto · 16/06/2020 23:26

He weren't that ill he was hiding in a fridge!😄

DoctorHildegardLanstrom · 16/06/2020 23:27

If he is a barely functioning alcoholic (as was my late DF) I wouldn't be surprised if he had no idea whether it was Tuesday, Wednesday or any other day

He might not, but his minders will, I wonder if its true whether they have been doing something specific for Wednesday's when you have to see him at 12pm as well

How do you think you would all look after having Covid and trying to run a nation through a pandemic , no matter wether you think k he's done a good job or not he's still had to deal with it and that would put pressure on anyone
Ffs Half the people I know look crap with dodgy hair cuts , grey , overgrown eyebrows and loads who have had Covid still saying they are not right
Can't comment on if the baby is playing into the equation as no idea if they have a nanny etc
But even if you don't like him , his party , his policies or how he's run it why do some of you have to be so nasty I just don't get it

Judge - I am so sorry for the loss of your Dad.

What a surprise Johnson turned up at the podium tonight on a good news night! Although of course he wouldn’t have properly learnt the name of the breakthrough drug, never been one for silly details.

Well done to the medics and trial participants for helping the world treat this disease.

Johnson looked quite petulant when it was put to him that it was because of a young footballer, Marcus Rashford, speaking out about the dire need to feed vulnerable children that the Government will continue to supply FSM throughout the summer.

He really does just want the glory. As PM he should be acting in the publics’ best interests not in self-interest.

Sostenueto · 16/06/2020 23:34

Because strugglingwithdeciding he doesn't give a flying f* about you, your kind, your problems, whether you are Ill or not, whether you are starving it not. Because he lives in his nice comfortable bubble a multi millionaire with a family who are also multi millionaires and he and his cronies are going to make a mass if money come December and that is all him and his ilk care about.

strugglingwithdeciding · 16/06/2020 23:36

@Sostenueto my kind what does that mean ? I am under no illusion that any mp gives a crap about the vast majority of us . Only at voting time do they pretend to care
They all screw is over in one way or other and that goes for all parties

Sostenueto · 16/06/2020 23:37

That should read your kin not kind.

Lonelycrab · 16/06/2020 23:38

as no idea if they have a nanny etc

Just look up he’s previous situations re childcare surely and take a guess?

As to why people are being “nasty” it’s very obvious he’s a narcissist in it for the glory, that’s the cold hard truth of it, and it’s not looking too glorious right now. HTH.

happinessischocolate · 16/06/2020 23:40

Do people honestly think he is up doing night feeds and being kept awake at night by the baby?

I can't believe that anyone really believes that, knowing how few men genuinely do their share, I can only assume the posters who say they do, are paid to 🤷‍♀️

saveeno · 16/06/2020 23:42

Get your bloody hair cut Johnson. You are making a holy show of yourself on the domestic and world stage. At least if you were in any way presentable it might help a little, as it is you look like someone dragged you through a hedge backwards.

That image worked while the buffoonery was going on the trip wire for the Olympics or whatever it was, fun loving guy yep.

But you are the leader of an exceptional country who think the whole world should look up to you (EU boaks right here lol).

Get with the program and look the part FGS. Haircut first please.

VanCleefArpels · 16/06/2020 23:43

@hotstepper4

I heard from a reliable source that even when he was in hospital he was still going outside for cigarette breaks
What, from his ICU bed along with the oxygen tank, his security detail and in the sight line of the paps surrounding the hospital? Don’t be ridiculous
VanCleefArpels · 16/06/2020 23:45

@saveeno haircut by whom? It’s currently illegal. See also Justin Trudeau for the world leader in need of a trim vibe

strugglingwithdeciding · 16/06/2020 23:46

@lonelycrab I could easily take a guess but as I don't know for sure I won't claim I do As will leave this to others who know it all

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 16/06/2020 23:46

I don't give a toss what his hair looks like. I'd just like him to stop being a lazy, lying, incompetent, corrupt twat.

strugglingwithdeciding · 16/06/2020 23:47

@saveeno imagine if he turned up with a haircut it would be all over MN that he has broke lockdown rules
He's also not exactly known for his perfect hair at the best of times and I watch sturgeon and wonder how hers looks so good throughout

saveeno · 16/06/2020 23:48

VanCleefArpels.

Didn't stop the REAL pm from testing his eyes hundreds of miles away breaking the rules now did it lol!

He is the PM, it can be done privately in his own home by someone, then he could pretend Dominic Cummings or Carrie did it for him. He's good at fibbing anyway.

There is no excuse for such a load of thatch on the top of his head.

strugglingwithdeciding · 16/06/2020 23:50

@happiness paid to ? To say he's up with baby my god heard it all now
I think if they were paying people it wouldn't be to state he's up with his baby , he doesn't use the family man image to promote himself that's for sure
And maybe you've had bad experience but I know many men who get up at night to their babies if not being bf or get up to support their partner

VanCleefArpels · 16/06/2020 23:50

@saveeno I actually think by not having it cut he’s showing a tiny bit of solidarity with everyone else looking a bit shit. Interesting to see Prince William today closely shorn - Kate must have had at him with the clippers!!

saveeno · 16/06/2020 23:55

VanCleefArpels

He doesn't care what people think anymore, I don't believe he can think at all TBH, with due respect to the after effects of his illness.

I don't mean to be mean at all, but just look around at the leaders of any other country you can think of. Their leaders are so well groomed despite not having barber shops/hairdressers open.

He could tidy up his image a bit if he wanted to, but like a petulant child, I think he wants to stay in the persona of the Mayor of London and all that hilarious jazz. It won't work.

And are they also the type of men who can't say how many children they have? Get forced to admit that one of their children is theirs, and have numerous affairs and leave their wives?

947EliseChalotte · 17/06/2020 00:10

Wilfrid will be keeping Boris awake at night and he's got a stressful job ,plus recently had covid...he must be exhausted. Another month..and hairdressers are open ..yippeee...although hair cuts were never first on boris' list.

Cailleach1 · 17/06/2020 00:12

There is a photo of him with an ear piece in his right ear. I was looking for it last PMQ's, but his hair covers the ear. Don't know if he has stopped since he was photographed with it or if hair is deliberately covering it.

It is hard to imagine he could be worse without an earpiece prompting him. Is Dom doing a good job?

KrakowDawn · 17/06/2020 00:14

Maybe he could have a haircut for emergency childcare purposes? That would be ok, wouldn't it?

Cailleach1 · 17/06/2020 00:23

I should say there is a photograph with Johnson allegedly wearing an earpiece in his right ear.
