I reckon it's the asd angle.

Me too, but they must know that using it as an excuse will just cause more anger and frustration.

janet1267 · 25/05/2020 16:18

I hope the PM shows his face too.

minou123 · 25/05/2020 16:18

Poor reporters having to rabble on about everything and anything to fill the time

NotJustACigar · 25/05/2020 16:18

I couldn't hear what web site that Tom asshat was from and thought he said it was called pedo forks.

This lateness is just another sign of classic Dom's contempt for the great unwashed British public.

Yummyoldbag · 25/05/2020 16:18

FuckThisWind and of course Johnson coming out AS Trans 🥴

itsgettingweird · 25/05/2020 16:18

But the asd thing isn't proved. It was twitter speculation.

And it won't wash.

Too many other families who in the same situation - STAYED HOME

I needed to go to the loo half an hour ago (sorry TMI) but I was scared I'd miss something. At this rate I'm going to wet myself. I should have gone instead of looking for the Kitkat but you know, priorities.

That will be the case with whatever excuse he uses.

knittingaddict · 25/05/2020 16:20

Frazzles and tea!

Percy Pigs and white wine!

What is wrong with you people? Swap snacks, for the love of God.

1forsorrow · 25/05/2020 16:21

Maybe I should go to the loo, he'll start talking as soon as I move. At least it would end the suspense for the rest of you.

SouthWestmom · 25/05/2020 16:22

I've just been to the loo for you . Nothing.

Go quick! We will shout for you when it starts

Saucery · 25/05/2020 16:23

I’d go, 1forsorrow. He’s doing a huge build up.

It's Guido Fawkes

What an arrogant tosser he is. If you really wanted to wipe the slate clean, try and get the public on side, just treat us with some respect and be on time.
Very very poor

B1rdbra1n · 25/05/2020 16:23

keeping us waiting is just another power move to show us whose boss

janet1267 · 25/05/2020 16:24

The fact that he's taking questions makes me think he might be going to apologise and come clean. I hope so - he'd go up in my estimation.

They must be desperate to keep him to allow him to hold this press conference. It's very worrying that an unelected official holds so much power. It makes a mockery of democracy.

1forsorrow · 25/05/2020 16:24

@minou123 thanks. Made it. I can't believe the one cup of tea, one chocolate bisucuit, one Kitkat and a quick wee and 20 second handwash and he still hasn't started. Things I'm waiting for always start as soon as I shut the loo door. This must be a drastic holdup.

SabrinaThwaite · 25/05/2020 16:25

The Guido Fawkes lot were baying for Prof Ferguson's blood for allowing his married lover to visit his home (after he'd recovered from Covid).

Funny how that was so awful yet they think Cummings is just being picked on?

minou123 · 25/05/2020 16:25

According to some tory mp, we are all going to be surprised and what he is about to say is unprecedented.....

What on earth is he about to say?

GrimmsFairytales · 25/05/2020 16:26

makes me think he might be going to apologise

I think there's absolutely no chance of that. He doesn't think he's done anything wrong.

SouthWestmom · 25/05/2020 16:26

Thanks Helena I wanted to get his book but reviews said it was very dry

He'll be past South Mimms on the way to Hatfiled on the A1 by now.

SouthWestmom · 25/05/2020 16:28

Durham police are really irritating.

We're they in awe of his celebrity so didn't tick him off?

I’ve discovered I can have iPlayer in the corner of the screen and still post on MN, so he’s done me a favour with his insouciant tardiness.
