Boris MIA again?

Sarahlou63 · 02/04/2020 19:27

Anyone think it's rather strange that Boris is still out of action and that, yet again, he's nowhere to be seen - a repeat of the election and the floods....

Op too embarrassed to come back now?? Can’t believe people don’t actually know he has Covid. It’s on the news every day.

GreenLeafedLemon · 02/04/2020 19:54

He’s ILL 😷

Aposterhasnoname · 02/04/2020 19:55

FFS He’s got corona virus. You might have heard of it, apparently there’s bit of a bug going round?

If he’s still Ill after his seven days self isolation then obviously he’ll not be back. Unless you’d prefer him coughing all over everyone and their dog in Downing Street.

BMW6 · 02/04/2020 19:55

Oh DO behave OP. Read the newspapers. He still has symptoms so is still in Isolation.
FFS.

Are you really this ignorant? He has the coronavirus, genius!

Redwinestillfine · 02/04/2020 19:57

Wow. What happened to be kind? He's sick.

HeartsTrumpDiamonds · 02/04/2020 19:57

I bet he is a lot worse than they are letting on too.

Justanotherlurker · 02/04/2020 19:59

He is self isolating because of suspected symptoms of Covid, as you would be totally aware if you had even an ounce of critical thinking and on top of politics that you tried to insinuate from your thread.

It isn't the right time to try political point scoring, it makes you look like an uninformed idiot.

Fumnudge · 02/04/2020 20:00

Nasty, OP. just plain nasty.

Pickles89 · 02/04/2020 20:01

If he were to die, who would take over? I don't know anything about politics, just wondering how worried to be!

ChardonnaysPetDragon · 02/04/2020 20:02

You have heard about that virus going round?

Aardvarkitsabloodyaardvark · 02/04/2020 20:03

I thought he looked very unwell in the twitter video yesterday. He's lost weight rapidly. Give him a break fgs.

slartibarti · 02/04/2020 20:03

We won't be told if he's very ill with it. They keep saying he's got a mild case, but mild can mean pneumonia and breathing problems.

Mummyoflittledragon · 02/04/2020 20:05

Can’t stand him. But he’s ill. YABU.

PieceOfMaria · 02/04/2020 20:07

Why is it strange? He has Coronavirus. What is strange about needing to take a few days out of the spotlight, given that?

Please do answer the question by the way - it's not rhetotical.

Longdistance · 02/04/2020 20:08

tilts head @Sarahlou63 have you been living on the moon?

shinyredbus · 02/04/2020 20:09

He’s got fucking Covid have some sympathy fgs. Confused

ChardonnaysPetDragon · 02/04/2020 20:10

Would you be expected to work if you had it?

Frouby · 02/04/2020 20:10

Fil apparently got it when Bojo did. He's in hospital on oxygen atm. So yabu.

Judashascomeintosomemoney · 02/04/2020 20:10

Christ is there going to be one of these threads every bloody day?
He’s ill.
He’s doing twitter statements whilst looking and sounding quite ill. Go and check them out. FFFFS

KaptenKrusty · 02/04/2020 20:11

Lolz 😆 he’s got the virus ??

Cornishclio · 02/04/2020 20:12

He has got Coronavirus. I hope he is recovering ok. Not a fan of his but would not wish it on anyone except the idiots ignoring the advice to SI and social distance.

PreciselyBecause · 02/04/2020 20:13

The vote is currently 86:14 - what on earth are the 14% thinking?
Sadly there are some real nasty people around.

CoolCarrie · 02/04/2020 20:14

I can’t stand him, but he is unwell so cut him some slack there. However maybe being ill will humble him and make him take a long hard look at himself and his attitude towards the NHS , his party and their plans for the NHS and other policies in the future.

Wtf? He's been diagnosed!!! Wtf planet do you live on that you think it's "suspected"?
