Where the hell is Boris?

London has been in tier 2 for two weeks today, rumors of move to tier 3.

Numerous other areas moving into tier 2 or 3.

Furlough ending tomorrow.

Surely there should have been some kind of update or announcement from this sorry excuse for a government?

He'll be back to announce the pre Christmas lockdown.

Newjez · 30/10/2020 20:07

He's shitting himself, because if Biden wins the election he is screwed.

Like that batman and robin only fools and horses episode. Boris and gove are about to turn up to a black tie event in fancy dress. They are about to be humiliated.

He's probably writing his resignation letter.

Catmads · 30/10/2020 20:19

@Newjez When If Boris resigns surely it'll only be Gove that'll be stupid enough to put his head above the parapet this time?

@nancy75

If rumours about the violin player are true I’d guess he’s fiddling while Rome burns...
Is he dipping his wick elsewhere yet again?
nancy75 · 30/10/2020 20:39

VettiyaIruken rumours have been going around for a while, no idea if it’s true but going on past form...

BarbaraStripeshand · 30/10/2020 20:47

[quote Catmads]@nancy75 I understand your point totally Grin but if London does move to tier 3 it would be nice to have a bit of notice this time so we sort things out at work rather than just suddenly being closed down...[/quote]
You'll probably get a couple of days notice like the rest of us did when our areas moved into Tier 3.

bubblebubblebubbletrouble · 30/10/2020 20:49

I'm not sure why London needs to go into tier 3 - compared with places already in tier 3 cases per 100k are so much lower. Almost all boroughs are

AngelicaElizaAndPeggy · 30/10/2020 20:50

It's half term and he's got a few kids to get round, so he's no doubt a bit tied up.

WorriedMummy2020 · 30/10/2020 20:52

I've been wondering the same about a certain BBC news correspondent too.....

StealthPolarBear · 30/10/2020 20:56

Lk was on Twitter earlier I think. She seems to be choosing her words carefully at the moment.

DominaShantotto · 30/10/2020 20:57

He causes less damage when he's not around - I'm enjoying the break from wondering what the floppy haired fuckwit is going to come out with next.

Catmads · 30/10/2020 20:58

@bubblebubblebubbletrouble I don't understand it either. It was Sadiq Khan that was pushing for London to go together into tier 2 although at the time two weeks ago cases were still relatively low in South London.

I can only assume once again we don't know the full facts.

What’s the LK rumour based on, apart from her fawning?

Catmads · 30/10/2020 21:02

@DominaShantotto Very true. I've gone from being annoyed by his absence to grateful in the last couple of hours!

RishiMcRichface · 30/10/2020 21:14

I think they are saying London is a concern due to the high R rate reported to be around 2.9

AngelicaElizaAndPeggy · 30/10/2020 21:16

Is it rumoured that Lk is shagging Boris!? Really!? My god.

Orcus · 30/10/2020 21:19

LK?

RishiMcRichface · 30/10/2020 21:20

Is it rumoured that Lk is shagging Boris!? Really!? My god.
Eww

cheezy · 30/10/2020 21:21

Who is LK?
There’s a recent video of Boris and Carrie thanking the NHS.

Enrosadira · 30/10/2020 21:21

Nooo.

cheezy · 30/10/2020 21:22

Laura Kuennsburg?! (Spelling)

Orcus · 30/10/2020 21:23

The only LK I can think of all of a sudden is Liz Kendall, who I'm going to assume he isn't banging.

Orcus · 30/10/2020 21:23

@cheezy

Laura Kuennsburg?! (Spelling)
Ohhhhhh. Well not that I'd know, but to me the most likely explanation seems to be that she's just not a very good journalist.
BananaPop2020 · 30/10/2020 21:25

LK.....I need a clue

BananaPop2020 · 30/10/2020 21:25

OH......
