Ok then let's see what the Prime Minister has to say........

[frozendaisy]

It's the hope that destroys you isn't it!

[ksohh0]

Some of his phrasing is so hilariously out of place, it's like a parody of a PM.

[hamstersarse]

Why has no one realised you can’t suppress a virus?!!!

[W3dontdoduvets]

He had to announce it first to parliament earlier today, so nothing we don’t already know.

[frankie001]

No Churchill is he?

[MaxinesTaxi]

No gratitude to the public for generously giving the govt more time to get their shit together which they have wasted then?

[EmmaGrundyForPM]

Why is the picture in the background on its side?

[Toilenstripes]

I think he’s come across better than he has in a long time. He certainly looks better.

[Namenic]

Singapore did a good lockdown too with a population density higher than uk

[ChavvySexPond]

He said the word "collective" and didn't burst into flames.

[Cocklepops]

He said he’s relying on the common sense of the population.

That’s us fucked then.

[Jilljams]

That stitch in time line. Do you think they’ve focused group that? He’s got a nerve to say about people not following the rules considering Cummings.

[ragged]

discipline... resolve? Meh. More like endure & keep a low profile.

[Ickabog]

It's so fustating hearing him waffle and blather on. He needs to be direct and cleaerly explain the new measures.

[Ickabog]

Wait is that it? he didn't actually explain anything

[FatGirlShrinking]

Oh my god my eyes actually hurt from all the eye rolling. I cannot listen to that man talk, he is just unbearable.

[Winederlust]

Yes Boris, let's all put our lives on hold indefinitely for hopes and fucking dreams

[Marisishidinginmyattic]

Tests within minutes being the dream 😂 tests within days or actually at all would be better right now...

[Figgygal]

I can’t stand the bloke and he has no credibility after the Cummings debacle but people need to listen if we want this to stop escalating

[Jilljams]

It wasn’t even a live recording, recorded it earlier today

[PlugUgly1980]

Clearly pre recorded before he'd even got the rules agreed! No mention of what they even are!

[frozendaisy]

@Rinoachicken

Oh fuck he’s behind the desk again

. 2m plus plus from camera man

[ChavvySexPond]

That was pretty good.

Not too many random pauses and waffle.

Short and firmly expressed.

Let's hope it helps.

[GlendaSugarbeanIsJudgingYou]

I felt like I was watching a Cbbc bedtime story featuring BJ.

What was the point in that exactly?

[Loveacuppa]

Boris has the air of how I imagine the PM in Harry Potter would be when the Ministry rock up to tell him about the existence of dangerous wizards

[Iwantacookie]

I dont see the point of him addressing us all.
