"As pressure from virus rises, PM will give national address at 8pm tonight, updating the booster programme - sounds like this will NOT include new restrictions"

His hands look a bit bloated which maybe why there is no wedding ring.

Ubiquery · 12/12/2021 20:07

I could do without that flag behind him too.

the80sweregreat · 12/12/2021 20:07

Booster Boris
The unvaccinated still won't bother though :(

StrychnineInTheSandwiches · 12/12/2021 20:07

I notice he doesn't wear a wedding ring. Are wedding rings for proles?

'Get boosted now and please stop talking about Downing St parties'

Flamingolingo · 12/12/2021 20:07

Is it just boosters? I’m stuck doing bedtime so can’t watch

millytint44 · 12/12/2021 20:07

In our house, he's BoJo, (like Bozo the Clown).

Fairly non descript briefing wasn't it?

Apart from 'A tidal wave of omicron'... all he said was get your booster.

Octavia174 · 12/12/2021 20:07

Cancelling cancer and all other elective appointments sounds a fantastic idea.
Only until the new year - he says, like fuck

oh my god another fucking 3 word slogan "get boosted now"

ReginaaPhalange · 12/12/2021 20:07

Is he on commission for every time he says "get boosted now"

baroqueandblue · 12/12/2021 20:07

Get set for the weekend

Get shafted now

thedarkling · 12/12/2021 20:07

@tootyfruitypickle

Wonder why he doesn't wear a wedding ring
Posh people don't wear them. I know this because a posh person at uni told me 😳
PicsInRed · 12/12/2021 20:07

Get boosted now.

He's boosted alright.

Lipsandlashes · 12/12/2021 20:07

Someone please tell me what the point in this is. Those that wanted to and were eligible for their booster have had it. Those that don’t want it aren’t going to have their minds changed by this ridiculous charade (I’ve had my booster before I get accused of anything)

OliveTree75 · 12/12/2021 20:07

I think the overall message was "get boosted now"Hmm

LordEmsworth · 12/12/2021 20:07

For fuck's sake. My elderly, disabled mum has been hospitalised twice because GPs have refused to see her. What's the point of covid vaccination if people are going to die of something else???

I've been trying to book my booster for weeks, there are/were no appointments near me till the New Year. Had he pulled his finger out a few weeks ago, I'd have had it by now. Pompous twat lecturing

2WeeksTillChristmas · 12/12/2021 20:08

Well that was a waste of time!

ElizabethG81 · 12/12/2021 20:08

Oooh, new red alert slogan. Fuck off Boris.

CrunchyCarrot · 12/12/2021 20:08

It's going to be a hell of a stretch to get the population boosted by the end of December!!

Fallagain · 12/12/2021 20:08

@Borisjohnsonshairbrush I agree he is going but the next wave will be mid Jan and they want to blame that and any restrictions on him. Plus the Tories need to figure out which muppet will be the next leader.

willthatbeall · 12/12/2021 20:08

I had freedom until he took
It away! It didn't need protecting

What an almighty arse.

Guilt tripping re cancer is enough to make me refuse to comply!

tootyfruitypickle · 12/12/2021 20:08

@willthatbeall yes that's what makes me mad. DD was so ill because they delayed rolling out the vaccines and now she has no protection at all as they don't think previous infection helps.

GoldenOldBoy · 12/12/2021 20:08

Get boosted now! 😂😂😂

MadeForThis · 12/12/2021 20:08

What a waste of time.

ReginaaPhalange · 12/12/2021 20:08

Can't wait for the "get boosted now" memes haha

Potatodrivers · 12/12/2021 20:08

So this is how it goes. The vaccine saves your life. Then that one vaccine is no longer enough and you need a second. But that also isn't enough so you need a third. People are hesitant, and so the booster is now the only one that works. Then another variant will come and you will need another booster, and on and on it goes. Oh the joys

Noeuf · 12/12/2021 20:08

What a bloody waste of time. Back to Christmas parties please. Honestly I’m allegedly a priority and still can’t get mine - earliest I could book was Friday.
