I reckon it'll be keep up the good work, if not numbers will go up, it'll be your fault and we'll need more restrictions after 20 Dec.

the80sweregreat · 30/11/2021 10:28

' I'm resigning ' ..
That would cause a stir !!
More likely to be more ifs and maybes about the new variant etc
The journalists will ask half a dozen complicated questions each and everyone will be more confused than they were before!!
Until we get the data .. could be a bit of a wait tho

Figgygal · 30/11/2021 10:31

Hopefully he’s resigning
That would make Christmas Grin

OliveTree75 · 30/11/2021 10:31

I hope he reminds us it is the season to be jolly careful again

spitneybrears · 30/11/2021 10:31

Dunno but I guess it'll include "vaccines may not work against the new variant hence we must immediately have restrictions back... still get your third jab though".

the80sweregreat · 30/11/2021 10:55

Boris Johnson ;
Christmas is saved ..
Unless it's not.
.. But I'll have people round to help out with the children regardless anyway , you all have to follow the rules and eat your Christmas dinner with a mask on and the windows open and all freeze to death. See if I care.

Parliament will have approved the new Regs so it'll be an announcement about masks and reduction in time between second and booster jab.

ILookAtTheFloor · 30/11/2021 11:04

It'll be about jabs and how the bloody hell theyre going to actually implement what is a considerable change in approach to how boosters are actually dolled out.

‘Forgive me
Forgive me
Please… forgive me’

He'll present us with an earnest request: "Baby, can I hold you?" - but in bumbling Latin.

@ThousandsOfTulips

Love the comments so far. None of us has any confidence in Boris Johnson any longer.

If anybody ever did then they must have a significant brain injury.

Yup Grin
PurpleDaisies · 30/11/2021 11:06

I can’t see that anything significant has changed since yesterday. Maybe it will be about how the booster program will work since it seemed to be utter chaos on the nhs booking website yesterday.

TinaYouFatLard · 30/11/2021 11:07

I suspect there’s going to be some scaremongering around children to try and coerce those pesky parents who won’t comply with the jab.

violetskiss · 30/11/2021 11:07

Everyone repeating the same jokes on these threads is so painful.

Sunflowersinthewind · 30/11/2021 11:08

It will be boosters, boosters, boosters, exercise caution and common sense or else you will all ruin Christmas and it will be your fault.

theelephantinthegroup · 30/11/2021 11:09

I expect key points will be:

  • extended vaccination roll out that we already know about
  • Reminder of new rules on masks and recommendation to wear them in more places (although he won't be doing, obviously)
  • Reminder about overseas travel rules
  • General waffle about being careful and keeping everyone safe to avoid Plan B (with undertone that if we do move to Plan B it's because we are all very naughty boys and girls)
  • Self congratulatory bollocks about how well the Government are managing the crisis
Sunflowersinthewind · 30/11/2021 11:12

I have no idea why we need a press conference though about measures that came into force today! It just whips people up into worry

Let’s face it, those people are “whipped up into worry” already. We get press conferences all the time.

Carrie is leaving me all my children hate me and now it seems do most of you so long and thanks for the memories. Departs with a Cameronian whistle to riches galore.

EmmaOvary · 30/11/2021 11:17

Hopefully, it'll be to announce his resignation. Now that WOULD be a good Christmas present.

Who would you choose to replace him🙂?
ThousandsOfTulips · 30/11/2021 11:27

Picking someone at random from the street would likely be an improvement.
