To think Boris is at the beginning of the end?

Today he stumbled through a talk addressing business men and talked at length about Peppa Pig World

I think you’re absolutely right @user1471453601 about the coded message.

It says to the British public.

Fuck off.

MushMonster · 22/11/2021 22:44

What!?
I am going to believe this one only because you cannot make this stuff up!
Is there footage of this one? I want to watch it!
Peppa Pig..... LOL
Not even me have spoken about Peppa Pig un a work meetingGrin (we need a rolling on the floor laughing emoticon)

Bluntness100 · 22/11/2021 22:44

No I don’t think it’s the beginning of the end, there is no credible opposition. Keir is going to get wiped out at the polls and put in a worse show than corbyn. No one else even has a presence any more

Irrelevant of how much anyone hates Boris the issue is there is literally no credible opposition.

@Awwlookatmybabyspider

Imagine walking round Peppa Pig World and bumping into Bozza 😂😂😂
I'd confuse him for one of Peppa's extended family.
Romeiswheretheheartis · 22/11/2021 22:49

He was asked on News at 10 if he's alright, and he answered rather indignantly that he thought he did very well Hmm Grin

@GodIsAVegan

Peppa pig world. 🤣 Very strange behaviour even for Boris. But he sounds full of a cold. I don’t think he’s at all well which may go some way to explaining him getting muddled and losing his place in the speech. But peppa pig, I really don’t know.

Disclaimer: not a Tory or Boris fan. 😬 🐷

Cold? Much more likely that half of last years Domestic produce of Columbian marching power is blocking his nostrils. I'm an ex Cocaine addict and I can honestly say was pretty clearly coming down from a bad bender and also had a night on the booze too. Probably still drink. I'm ashamed that we call a piece of work like him our prime minister.
OhWhyNot · 22/11/2021 22:51

No

It was strange to watch his act was for once genuine

But no there isn’t anyone in the wings and the Tories will always back a vote winner

If he carries on like this then maybe but now yet

How is Boris credible, especially after this fiasco? What presence does he have, except that of a clown?

@Morgan12

Very nice distraction from what we should all be talking about today. Strange.
Exactly.
1FootInTheRave · 22/11/2021 22:53

I think he's using cocaine.

THIS!!! The reforms to the NHS are going through today & everyone is talking about stupid Boris & his pepper pig gaff...

@user1471443411

I think Cameron and Osborne were much worse with what they did to the benefits system and the demonising of poor people. Don't really know what to think of Boris Johnson's speech, it was very strange with how it was presented, maybe some sort of coded message? He's been looking quite well recently, but a few months ago looked terrible, like he did when he had covid. I wondered if he was being blackmailed or similar.
I'm not the only one feeling this way then. There's so many saying that it was a distraction from the Health and Care bill. But if it was that had to be accidental. Boris is a performer and a faker but no one could fake how bad he was today. It wasn't funny. It was excruciatingly embarrassing.

I think he's being blackmailed too. I think he was panicking in his head about some real shit dirt that's about to come out and he couldn't focus on the speech at all.

ohfourfoxache · 22/11/2021 22:56

I don’t normally like to bother the Big Man upstairs

But I’m praying that BoJo is on his way out

Like others have said though, WTAF are we going to get in his place?

DerTrotzkopf · 22/11/2021 22:56

Yeah lets distract the plebs from changes to social care that will hit poor pensioners the hardest. Probably mainly in the red wall ironically. But labour are worse.....

nancy75 · 22/11/2021 22:58

He’s very good at his job, after all here we all are talking about Peppa Pig while his party are screwing the NHS & putting forward appalling plans for care. He couldn’t have done better.

EmeraldShamrock · 22/11/2021 23:00

Omg. Blush Peppa pig.

nancy75 · 22/11/2021 23:00

Have a read of this & see how Boris operates reaction.life/jeremy-vine-my-boris-story/

I've never taken any drugs - but I thought this too. Then I thought my imagination was too wild - now reading your thoughts I realise it's obvious.

I can't stand the Tories - but my dad votes for them. He'd be so shocked if he knew.

Darker · 22/11/2021 23:04

I imagine the Tories are letting him stay while these horrendous bills on health and social care and the NHS go through Parliament and while they line up a successor. Then BJ will be driven out bearing the guilt and blame like the proverbial scapegoat.

The cracks are starting to show. Whether the tories as a party recover is not the same as whether Boris does.
MushMonster · 22/11/2021 23:04

@Kendodd

The main difference I see between that speech and any other speech he's main is that the canned laughter has been turned off.

I have a theory that he works for Putin and has been tasked with destroying the UK, and a brilliant job he's doing.

@Russianmax
What did he say about Carrie?

He works for Putin LOL It can actually be leaning towards the truth! And most definitively, a distraction maneouver. Sad.
IncessantNameChanger · 22/11/2021 23:05

Embarrassing and cringeworthy. I didnt vote for him and I cringed listening to him on the radio for being British. He makes us a bloody joke

twilightermummy · 22/11/2021 23:07

He looked and sounded like someone who'd just rolled into work after a weekend long bender.

Imagine walking round Peppa Pig World and bumping into Bozza 😂😂😂

Haha the comments on here have been hilarious!

I’ve just seen the link posted and I’m watching it now in greater length on Newsround. No words, other than I’m even more concerned than I already was.

mantlepiece · 22/11/2021 23:17

I would imagine all prime ministers have numerous aides setting up and providing support to any public appearances.
This absolute car crash smacks of sabotage, or at the very least setting him up to fail. It’s been going on for weeks.

The press has been full of briefings against him, even the BBC😂

It’s like the dead parrot sketch. He is deceased.

I thought coke too.
