If Trump declares a nationwide emergency when Boris is over here still just saying, ‘wash your hands’-won’t that be a bit of a joke?!

He thinks Ireland is in the UK so that shows his intellectual ability.

yellowpolkadots101 · 13/03/2020 19:25

Live link can be found above.

The wait is killing me!

yellowpolkadots101 · 13/03/2020 19:29

He's declared a national emergency. Obviously 24 hours made all the difference Hmm

ADreamOfGood · 13/03/2020 19:36

If he's caught it from Bolsinaro, I don't fancy his chances of recovery.

Jobseeker19 · 13/03/2020 19:37

It sounds like he is doing a lot more than we are

pussycatinboots · 13/03/2020 19:37

He's struggling with his pre-written speech. He's lost the ability to read and punctuate.
That guy is not well.

Monstermissy36 · 13/03/2020 19:37

I find him very hard to listen to... sounds like lots of mumbles but not sure my hearing is great

Jobseeker19 · 13/03/2020 19:38

Drive-thru tests...

yellowpolkadots101 · 13/03/2020 19:39

Agree this speech doesnt have much substance so far its wishy washy!

It might now trump's moved away from the podium.

yellowpolkadots101 · 13/03/2020 19:41

Imagine the increase in numbers next week if they are introducing millions of tests!

I thought eventually when it gets so widespread they don't see the point in testing and resources go into treatment?

His hair is about to take off in the wind.

theseriousmoonlight · 13/03/2020 19:43

Just watched a clip. He looked and sounded unwell. His orange glow looked more fake than usual.

ADreamOfGood · 13/03/2020 19:43

@pussycatinboots I don't think he can read very well at the best of times!

pussycatinboots · 13/03/2020 19:45

that'll be the white "panda eyes" effect contrasting with the fake tan the same colour as my shed

I'd be concerned about sharing a microphone/podium with all those people.

Annonymiss123 · 13/03/2020 19:46

OMG he’s shaking hands with all the speakers. 🙄

pussycatinboots · 13/03/2020 19:47

ADream he is rather prone to ramble at the best of times.

GenevaMaybe · 13/03/2020 19:48

This is extremely odd. The whole thing. It’s like a kind of show and tell

Helenj1977 · 13/03/2020 19:48

Boris looks really silly now

MysweetAudrina · 13/03/2020 19:49

Its like the fucking shopping channel. Anyone else like to advertise their wares?
