BJ press conference tonight @ 5pm

[Rinoachicken]

"Boris Johnson is holding a press conference with Sir Simon Stevens, the chief executive of NHS England, at 5pm, No 10 has announced."

What do we think he’s going to say? I’m a bit worried about what he might say.

But I can pretty much guarantee he won’t be on time at 5pm, I’m guessing more like 6!

What do we think he’s going to say?

Fireworks tonight for the NHS.

@Fawnfour

Oh great, so with so many of you listening and caring, this will go on forever, nice

You do realise that not listening to Boris waffling on for an eternity and taking 20 minutes to try and make a point is not the reason this virus is spreading dont you? ....

@Fawnfour

Oh great, so with so many of you listening and caring, this will go on forever, nice

Huh?

@Fawnfour

Will people finally listen, doubtful

Boris hasn’t listened to anyone other than Cummings all the way through this which is the biggest problem imo. Maybe if he’d led by example we’d not be in this position now.

He won’t say anything tonight. He opens his mouth, makes some noise but says absolutely fuck all.

People hanging on Boris’ every word doesn’t affect the rate of coronavirus spread.

Those press conferences have just turned info political spin.

What @Shesingsshangrila said

@Shesingsshangrila

He's going to say 'waffle waffle hands face space, all in this together, we can do this, save the NHS, save lives'. There'll be some graphs showing more doom and gloom predicted if we don't do what we're told. And that'll be it.

this made me LOL.. but bet your right.

Hands face make space alas alas alas

He’s not going to say we’re all in this together. He’s going to tell people unless they follow the rules (which the majority are the majority of the time), he’s going to impose a longer lockdown on us. There’s no all in this together any more. He’s setting it up to blame us when it’s his policies and his test and trace system that have let us all down.

Next slide please

@Fawnfour

Will people finally listen, doubtful

To what? I stopped listening to the anxiety provoking waffle months ago. It's can't on the real detail that people need to know.

I have read the latest legislation so I know what's expected and plan to live my life as normally and joyfully as possible.

Probably he will tell us to clap at eight

Why are the graph slides so spectacularly shite? I mean they are so basic!

I work with people who could knock up really good visuals in a matter of minutes, yet the government present something that looks like something from those Open University education programmes circa 1996

Oh lord id forgotten about the clapping.

Maybe he'll give some mental health tips eg playing wiffwaff is great for lifting the spirits.

Next slide please

@workhomesleeprepeat

Actually I’d like him to clarify details of his recent affair with a Russian Violinist. Much more fun than apocalyptic economic predictions. Though I will settle for what I think is his personal mantra “hands, face, no space between my Willy and willing ladies”

Funny

I expect he's clearer with his conquests.

Will IT this time manage to fit the whole slide on the screen?

I am doing every single thing required by government at great personal financial and other costs, so I damn well reserve the right to take the mickey out of Boris a bit while I do it. Frankly I don't think he's going to hold it against me either.

Something about how we are not allowed to go in the shops that are allowed to be open. Range etc but he won't make them close cause then he will have to pay furlough.

Just a ploy to stop fireworks as Saturday was a ploy to stop halloween. If the mass of the people are waiting to hear their leader speak they can't also be trick or treating/bonfiring.

He'll come up with another on-the-spot cringey phrase which will be pumped out by the marketing team for the next few months. He'll look like a ham that's 2 weeks past the sell by date. He'll waffle on and his jowls will flap about.

Surely this?

I don't know what he will say but for the love of God I hope they have a clicker.

And slides that fit the screen.

Congratulating Trump.

I'm being facetious, just to be clear.
But God knows with 2020.

Wouldn’t it be wonderful if he said some good news for once.

Maybe a meteorite is on its way.

Never, in the field of human conflict has so much been owed by so many to so few. The NHS saved my life and did you know that I am now so broke that my last child was born in an NHS hospital- amazing- who knew that you didn't have to pay to give birth.

We will fight them in the car parks of Costco, The Range and Home Bargains. We will fight them in the RHS gardens and the garden centres of England. Stay at home unless you need to go out. If you have to go out take care and be safe. Above all support the economy and go to B&M but don't you dare set foot in a gym or a pub.

It is simple.
