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

What the actual?

15 'slides' later. How are we supposed to interpret these? As mere mortals?

'Next slide please'- like some WI hut 'My holidays in Spain, 1974'.

Whitty is no doubt completely right. But a populace who only reacts to '£350m a week to the NHS' and 'Get Brexit Done', how is this supposed to persuade?

Sir P and The Prof. Decent blokes caught up in this shit show. Sir P stuttering. Fuck me don't feel confident.

Vladtheunbaler · 31/10/2020 19:01

Ok guys, we get it. If we do nothing then we are in a dire position. What are we going to do?

randomer · 31/10/2020 19:01

This is making me want to die.

Gright · 31/10/2020 19:01

Does he really think he's 'responsible'? Seriously ...

the80sweregreat · 31/10/2020 19:01

Boris looks ghost like.

Cwenthryth · 31/10/2020 19:02

I mean it’s not surprising, given how spectacularly this govt is failing overall, but FFS on this beds chart they’ve cut off all the important info off the side of the screen! This is simple IT, lads. Sort yourselves out.

Widebum · 31/10/2020 19:02

Boris looks like a cat in the headlights

meow1989 · 31/10/2020 19:02

AuntieSocia1 · 31/10/2020 19:02

Painful to watch

NoisyBrain · 31/10/2020 19:02

80s I was just thinking that!

the80sweregreat · 31/10/2020 19:02

His thanking people now. It's not the fucking Oscars Boris

justanotherneighinparadise · 31/10/2020 19:03

His hair is getting more and note mad each press conference.

FlosCampi · 31/10/2020 19:03

Are the spotlights too bright?

Babydancing2020 · 31/10/2020 19:03

They keep talking about those charts but no one is showing anything?

ceaddas · 31/10/2020 19:03

humble in the face of nature .... ffs

Gright · 31/10/2020 19:03

Alas ... should have done a sweepstake on the use of that word. Oh, there it goes again.

Blue565 · 31/10/2020 19:03

Wow he just blamed local leaders, clearly by that turn of phrase

Cam77 · 31/10/2020 19:03

The government shouldn’t wheel out the scientists in public every time. Of course late to what various experts have to say, but this is YOUR decision YOU need to own it. Trying to deflect it onto scientists and virologists is pure deflection for making uncomfortable/unpopular decisions. I’m not sure any other country wheels them out every time like this. It’s such cowardice.

@justanotherneighinparadise

His hair is getting more and note mad each press conference.
He’d better get it cut before the hairdressers get closed !
the80sweregreat · 31/10/2020 19:04

His hair is thinning but still shiny.
Here we go, his in his stride now.

SeasonallySnowyPeasant · 31/10/2020 19:04

Blah blah restaurawnz blah alas blah hospital capacity blah medical and moral disaster (hah! Who's talking here Boris?!)

Cwenthryth · 31/10/2020 19:04

He does look really pale. He’s dithering as well. He knows he’s fucked up.

He also clearly doesn’t understand any of those charts at all!

BlueStethoscope · 31/10/2020 19:04

I wonder what people who haven't studied public health make of the graphs.

I thought we were done with experts
