His hair! He looks like he's been pulled through a hedge😂

@CremeEggThief

Eh? Kier as in care! Tier rhymes with care!
Example please?

Bear rhymes with care?
Tier rhymes with beer? (or bee- ur)

Obviously the stress and worry of this year is causing his hair to fall out : it's looking sad.

likeamillpond · 21/12/2020 17:17

Why doesn't his girlfriend get hum some styling wax or putty? A bit on the ends before going on air would soon sort out that fly away look.
Surely they have stylists?

@Iremembertheelderlykoreanlady

I think I saw a little half smile with that "alas" I reckon his Mrs has been on Mumsnet, and has reported back
I thought that, he definitely knows we are waiting for it.
BonnieDundee · 21/12/2020 17:17

Shapps' hair is weird.as well

although I'm not certain I've got room to criticise

Gobacktothe90s · 21/12/2020 17:17

This is a genuine comment!, I actually think he is purposely styling his hair to distract us from what he is saying. I haven't listened to a word he has said I've just realised.

SixesAndEights · 21/12/2020 17:18

What is the point of this presser? Why have a COBRA meeting if everything is under control?

CremeEggThief · 21/12/2020 17:18

Bear, bare and beer are all pronounced and sound the same to me.

Just like hair, hare, hear and hear.

I think it already is. But just to look deliberately messy.

He's not really said anything other than everything in Kent is under control and there's only 170 lorries to sort out.
willsantausesantatize · 21/12/2020 17:20

Grant Shapps is an odd one.
He seems too smooth and strangely detached from proceedings. I can't explain what it is that concerns me about him.

Well he needs to prove that he does actually attend the odd COBRA meeting after binning them off earlier this year.

I agree

RelightMyPfizer · 21/12/2020 17:20

Ohh will the London refugees need to isolate?

Originalyellowbelly · 21/12/2020 17:20

If the lorries have reduced from 500 to 170 where have they gone? Are they all locked up in a car park?

Purplethrow · 21/12/2020 17:21

Drink !

BonnieDundee · 21/12/2020 17:21

Another alas Grin

ohfourfoxache · 21/12/2020 17:21

Course he’s doing it as a distraction - the more platitudes that are needed the worse it looks

It’s part of him trying to come across as a bumbling do-gooder rather than the manipulative cuntweasel he is.

Alas.

GabsAlot · 21/12/2020 17:21
