He seems to have disappeared again!

Away being a fucking idiot. I'd call him Boris the Butcher but it carries connotations of decisive capability and he's neither.

Dotty02 · 08/05/2020 23:59

@Didkd well said.

AgileLass · 09/05/2020 00:02

And actually just looked Keir not sir or saint still manages to politicize his gratitude on the front page of the Telegraph

Yes, that was quite the PR coup wasn’t it. V clever line to take.

RedRec · 09/05/2020 00:10

In staying out of public view he is hoping that Matt Hancock will continue to take all the flak for the current omnishambles.

Didkdt · 09/05/2020 00:11

If you can't spot why this was not the moment or why it wasn't tasteful I won't argue with you.
He could at least have waited until Tuesday and wrapped it in then. But PR is important I'm sure that's why we cuss Boris for having worked in it

isitfridayyet1 · 09/05/2020 00:13

Hiding so others can take the blame probably.

noriim · 09/05/2020 00:20

He likes to not work weekends, so maybe because we having to do a pesky address on Sunday at 7pm he's taken the day off in lieu?

I doubt he's bothered about his 6 or 7 child? He has not bothered with the previous ones? Or maybe this one is special and he will do a Dailymail pullout photoshoot with this one so he can at least exploit that angle?

PastMyBestBeforeDate · 09/05/2020 00:26

Probably at home pretending to be Churchill.

Didkdt · 09/05/2020 00:27

How so you all know he hasn't bothered with his older children he's shielded them from press attention and maybe they've been upset about the divorce but unless you're their latest snog or BFF how do you know?

@Didkdt their latest snog or bff? Wtf are you talking about?

Egghead68 · 09/05/2020 00:29

Still recovering probably. He’s been very ill and I seriously doubt he is back to working anything like normal hours.

confusedandtired99 · 09/05/2020 00:35

In a fridge hiding from responsibility

Didkdt · 09/05/2020 00:37

@runrunrunrunt everyone is privy to Boris's paternal abilities I want to know how are they so sure. Are they intimately known to his children or their lives including his youngest daughter and her current family set up?
No they've decided he's a neglectful parent based on something they've read somewhere

OneJump · 09/05/2020 00:38

Boris doesn't work weekends or like to do any of the hard stuff.

If he's so ill still, why has he been photographed going up stairs and walking through St. James' Park with a coffee?

Why isn't he doing all the briefings instead of sending out others to carry the can? He was fine at PMQs. He's dodging work again.

CalmYoBadSelf · 09/05/2020 00:42

If anyone else had had a major illness and a baby in the last few weeks people wold be all sympathetic but let's not let decency get in the way of your left wing hatred

OneJump · 09/05/2020 00:45

If he's not well enough to do the job, he should stand aside. We are in the middle of a pandemic.

Dotty02 · 09/05/2020 00:46

So u all want borris to run the country, he us with his team it's not all o him. Leave him alone and stop slagging him off.

confusedandtired99 · 09/05/2020 00:49

He isn’t anyone else though is he? He’s the Prime Minister and we are in the midst of a national crisis

Didkdt · 09/05/2020 00:51

And yet keir the next big contender is more concerned that the photographer got what he needed than that his daughter was at home or within reach

You're a worthy supporter of Johnson Didkdt - both strangers to the truth.

confusedandtired99 · 09/05/2020 00:56

Not a particular fan of Keir either but apparently the camera man refutes that.

There’s always two sides to the story. Let’s hope Boris is very busy putting together a robust plan to action and that’s why he’s MIA.

confusedandtired99 · 09/05/2020 00:56

*plan of action

Didkdt · 09/05/2020 01:00

Hi flies I wondered when you track me down again.
It's not being a fan of BJ its the ridiculous to the viscous attacks I can't stomach. I'm sure you'll keep jabbing away though.

FliesandPies · 09/05/2020 01:06

Track you down? What a caution you are!

Still, it must be horrible for you to see vicious attacks, so horrible that you are driven to telling blatant lies about Starmer and using his child as a stick to beat him with. I am truly sad for you..Sad
