Says all you need to know that many peoples first thought is "he (or Cummings if you prefer) is bullshitting"

All that tells me is that you have a serious case of Boris Derangement Syndrome.

Election night must have been fun for you Smile

Flyinggeese · 27/03/2020 12:08

The number of trolls on MN at the moment is truly depressing - those gloating or having a 'smile put back on their face' - utterly despicable.

alloutoffucks · 27/03/2020 12:08

He does have a long history of lying and has been sacked from jobs for lying.

EerieSilence · 27/03/2020 12:08

In all fairness, he's become a part of his UK herd immunity project, so doing his part for the country.
Let's believe the scientists who put people like him into the lesser risk group.

VegetableMunge · 27/03/2020 12:09

God knows how many people he passed it on to before he started keeping to the rules.

This is my primary concern.

Duchessofblandings · 27/03/2020 12:09

Wish him and everyone else with it full recoveries.

YgritteSnow · 27/03/2020 12:09

I'm not sure why the glee tbh. We might not like him but he's all we've got right now. What does this country look like over the next few weeks with no one at all at the helm if he develops complications? I've just received a FSM voucher for my dd to be spent at Tesco as I am a single parent. Dd is also entitled to go to school as has an EHC, she's not going though as I am not a key worker, so would not utilise this option. A TA calls her every day to check she's ok. Shelves in my local supermarket are pretty full again etc. The attention to detail to her as an individual has genuinely surprised me. The government are managing this crisis whatever they might have done before. Why are we gleeful at the PM having a virus that could kill him and then the possible chaos that could ensue?

RedLentilYellowLentil · 27/03/2020 12:10

Oh dear, I hope he doesn't die before his time.

UYScuti · 27/03/2020 12:11

Will it be trump next?
🙂

cornishdreams1 · 27/03/2020 12:11

BoJo I totally agree, outrageous and the only thing more upsetting that hearing the news about Boris was reading the awful awful posts on here. Anyone spouting such comments have my sympathy, it must be a living hell to be so bitter, twisted and disturbed.

Thank goodness most people are decent, and will be wishing him to get well as soon as possible. Boris the country bar a few nutjobs are behind you Flowers

Yester · 27/03/2020 12:12

I hope he's ok. He's very overweight and that can be an issue. My BF is obese and has been really scared.

FoxEars · 27/03/2020 12:12

My goodness

There are some nasty bastards on this site

JKScot4 · 27/03/2020 12:12

Oh the irony 🙄
So will we have Raab now? he who is devoid of compassion or kindness 🙄

Guessinggames · 27/03/2020 12:12

I don't like Boris and I'm a socialist who is against everything he stands for but I don't want anyone to be ill or die.

TheMemoryLingers · 27/03/2020 12:14

I'm not his greatest fan but I hope he recovers quickly and particularly that his fiancee and unborn child are OK.

alliwantisagoodnightssleep · 27/03/2020 12:14

For the people celebrating the fact that Boris or any other politician has the illness. It says more about you as an individual than anything else.

listsandbudgets · 27/03/2020 12:14

Hmm.. well he did have a strategy of herd immunity.. lead from the front and all that

Seriously though I hope he makes a quick recovery. I'm not a Tory and I disagree with a lot of what he does but in a bizarre sort of way, he's growing on me

YgritteSnow · 27/03/2020 12:15

There are some nasty bastards on this site

I've been on here for twelve years. I can't believe some of the rabid bile being spouted on here at the moment. It's quite frightening how people feel so comfortable and justified in showing this side of themselves at the moment.

crazydiamond222 · 27/03/2020 12:15

Given that Mr Johnson's original strategy was for 80% of the population to contract it and develop herd immunity I think that he should be congratulated for not being a hypocrite and following his own policies Grin

RoyalBankOfFuckThis · 27/03/2020 12:15

So BoJo has CoRo.

Scary times. How many has he been in contact with. Yikes.

TheLadyAnneNeville · 27/03/2020 12:16

I wish him well and hope he receives the care he needs.

SneezyMcSneezeface · 27/03/2020 12:16

'Hopefully no one will ask why he was tested and others aren’t'

He's the PM that's why he gets tested.But that doesn't mean we should be testing our NHS staff as a matter of course

alloutoffucks · 27/03/2020 12:16

Nobody wants him to die. Don't pretend people have said that.

And yes zero sign of a cough or breathlessness on his video.

LittleDragonGirl · 27/03/2020 12:17

I couldn't help but laugh and even more so at Sajid Javid's tweet to him!

But wanna know why on earth he like the rest of the rich and famous are getting useage of the ever elusive Coronavirus tests yet Doctors nurses and HCP are being left without essential PPE and tests.. Angry

MinkowskisButterfly · 27/03/2020 12:18

Honestly I am no Boris or Tory fan, but you people cackling/laughing/mocking ought to be bloody well ashamed of yourselves. This pandemic has really shown what a horrible bunch of bastards there are mingling with us.
