Has our PM got competitors?

His BMI must be 40+ and he looks like he has high blood pressure? 😱

That should read * co-morbidities

Weird and morbid thing to speculate about imo.

2020newme · 27/03/2020 14:19

Oh I thought you really meant competitors! I was going to say "Yes! YTS boy Rishi" Grin

Babyfg · 27/03/2020 14:31

I thought the same. When it was announced he had coronavirus I said it wouldn't surprise me if he had underlying conditions as he doesn't look the healthiest. But I suppose it's his right to keep his medical records private like the rest of us so who knows.

I highly doubt his BMI is 40+!!!

40+?! No way he’s that big.

AnotherMurkyDay · 27/03/2020 14:55

I did wonder if he was tested because he's the PM or because he has comorbities or both. Even if his BMI isn't 40+ he is carrying a fair amount of extra weight. High blood pressure seems very likely

He is only 175cm tall!

19 and half stone would give him a BMI if 40. He looks that weight at least

Before I read your post properly I was about to say Dishy Rishi!

SerendipityJane · 27/03/2020 16:45

I thought the OP was referring to Matt Hancocks declaration of infection so soon after our beloved leaders.

I must say I’ve never looked at his figure is he that bad. Off to have a look

AnotherMurkyDay · 27/03/2020 22:52

He was 16.5 stone at 5 foot 9 when we elected him and I would say he has visibly gained weight since then. His BMI was 34.5 (obese category) then.

How do you know he was 16.5 stones??

OP posts:
IronNeonClasp · 27/03/2020 23:52

I wonder if he reads Mumsnet Wink

GulliBelle · 28/03/2020 00:04

According to the daily express, bojo said he was 'carting around' 16.5 stone before losing 10lb' in December 2018.

barkingfly · 28/03/2020 06:29

Dude, look at our president in the US. Wears lifts in his shoes. Possibly diapers/nappies. Absolutely batshit insane and physically unhealthy.

AnotherMurkyDay · 28/03/2020 09:53

@SubjectMatterExpert

He told the newspaper

AnotherMurkyDay · 28/03/2020 09:54

A while ago though, about his weight loss and how he'd done it (lost 12 lbs)

beautifulteeth · 28/03/2020 09:56

Not another Boris bashing thread ffs

There are some really nasty posters on this site who always profess to being so kind and nice

It's bullshit

Beatricesheilamaria · 28/03/2020 10:00

He does jog a lot though. I always see pictures of him running in bright yellow tops. And his cardiovascular system must be ok if he's managed to make baby number 6 (or 7). Which leads me to: all the shagging. That's got to count as exercise. Unless he's a starfish kind of guy Shock
