Yes

lifesalongsong · 22/09/2020 19:49

Have you heard that he isn't?

Swingbin · 22/09/2020 19:50

Yes, The Bake Off has been delayed for it....

BikeRunSki · 22/09/2020 19:50

GBBO is starting 15 mins later than planned, so I guess so.

Titsywoo · 22/09/2020 19:50

Is it different from what he said this morning or just repeating it?

JustSaying101 · 22/09/2020 19:51

Yup. Pretty sure everything he will say has already been announced via online media though...

ShellsAndSunrises · 22/09/2020 19:52

It’s the same. He had to announce the measures in parliament first.

He might dress it differently but it seemed like a practice run earlier; so maybe not.

This. All he is doing is playing at being PM. I think it boosts his ego to do these little broadcasts to the nation. Pointless waste of time.

I sure he will have a peppy slogan for us but apart from that it shouldn’t hold any surprises.

He's boring us into submission here. Oh and a veiled threat to put the army on the streets...

The slightly clenched fists at the end to show how serious he is.

Gove said the exact same phrase earlier on.
