Come the fuck on Boris.

[Bluewavescrashing]

Leaving the nation hanging around for his words of wisdom is not going to boost his popularity.

So rude

Prof Gupta would be great if we had a time machine to implement her suggestions of what we should have done up to this point

It's embarrassing.

Although the people that they're interviewing to fill in are undoubtable more informed and knowledgeable than him.

What's that Skippy, he's fallen down the well?

@JamieLeeCurtains

This is like pass the parcel for world experts, waiting for the one who will be abruptly cut off ...

Expert roulette.

He’s probably nicking some kid’s dinner.

Making me anxious even though it seems obvious what’s being announced

Who was the motorcycle guy??

Boris in disguise, legging it.

Oh. good disguise. Motorcycle guy was bald. Shave Boris (his head, not thinking about other areas) and it's a good disguise.

Shall we set up a Friends of Rita support group?

I mean how long can she go on?

The last time I waited like this for an act was for Axl Rose. It was a damp squib.

Quite. Although I’ve never fancied Johnson. < not envy.

@PawPrincess

BBC are just spinning yarn to keep viewers.

I've actually had to pause it because some woman being interviewed is so far on her high horse there's clearly no oxygen up there

Maybe we could meld politics and Strictly, and have Ed Balls doing Gangnam Style in Downing Street, because frankly I'd pay good money to see that right now.

Ffs.

I'm so angry with this utter crap show. How can we possibly have spent over 30 billion on a inadequate track and trace system? Who signed off on buying into that contract? Who benefits from that contract?

It's all talk and no delivery. World beating my backside.

Honestly Boris, if it's this hard just commandeer the easel the royals use to announce births and have someone stick that out the front of number 10...

I’d pledge 50p if they held a telethon for her

Wouldn't surprise me if the hold up is because of Nicola Sturgeon...

Someone has forgotten the poppies, They are trying to mug a Chelsea Pensioner to get one each.

axl rose is trending on twitter for this reason

Reeta is so unfazed. She is fab.
Let's start a fan club.

Gahhh this speculation is so bloody infuriating. Where is the evidence of where is the biggest spread? Follow the science, areas with the biggest spread need to be targeted. I could do better analysing the data and I'm not a data analyst.

*Live update - blind is up! DH back with a new beer.

He’s still out trick or treating

Just think.

The BBC schedulers will be having kittens.

Two live shows tonight and Johnson is screwing it all up.

Imagine the outrage if Strictly gets canned cos Johnson didn't mean his homework deadline.

It’s making me cross. What contemptuous behaviour. He’s a disgrace.

Reeta for PM
