Hard to have sympathy or empathy with a man who has demonstrated neither qualities. We are talking about a man who blamed care home deaths on the care staff. He’s brought it on himself. “Let the bodies pile high”? **** him.

Congratulations Boris and Carrie

I'm sorry for your loss. Try not to think of her death every time someone else dies. Once we start conflating our feelings it can trigger a downward spiral. I can assure you that Boris isn't going to be the only person whose mum dies this year, so it's best you brace yourself if this is going to be an issue.
My mum is dead too. This doesn't stop me pondering how many people's mums died because of Boris' cavalier attitude to Covid. So I have no qualms making facetious reference to his inability to remember how many kids he's sired (which is what my quip meant - you may not have got the point but plenty did). I'm all for empathy, but it's a two way street when it comes to public figures. And it isn't for you to shoulder the burden of his loss, no matter how much you like the man (if you do; I don't recall that to be the case).
I absolutely understand where you are coming from, and add no ifs or buts.
The cant is nauseating.
I am trying to scratch my head and come up with the name of a left winger who has expressed a callous attitude to the deaths of countless people that arguably died owing to his decisions, so that I can say 'Imagine if someone had made a waspish comment about his mum dying.' I can't. There have been many fools on the left but callous disregard of human life isn't typically their thing.
I suppose we can argue that Tony Blair is a left winger (one of my brothers would wet himself at the idea, but...), and we can argue he caused the death of thousands by supporting Bush in the middle East (the same one of my brothers certainly thinks so). I don't recall him ever mocking their deaths but let's pretend for a moment he did.
Can you imagine Mouldy Brains, Das Reich and Bakewell Tart piling into someone who made a waspish comment about the death of Tony Blair's mum? Can you? Can you though?

Don’t start back peddling now H.
You seem a thoroughly spiteful and vindictive thug.

Thoughts with Boris and his family at this difficult time. Cut the guy some slack - if he had compassionate leave for a few days then I wouldn't blame him.
Some terrible comments on here.
A few decades would be preferable
RIP his mum

Did she die of shame?
Pretty much sums up my feelings (or lack of). As you say, it's hard to feel sympathy/empathy with someone like him, and that's not to say I take pleasure in his inevitable sadness. Not that it will, but I'd like to think it might bring home to him the impact his behaviour has had on others, and give him something to reflect upon.
It's also no surprise whatsoever that the Troll Squad become so self-righteous (a bit like the Krays- nice boys who loved their dear ol' mum...), yet have been happy to bandy around thinly-veiled suggestions of paedophilia, the oft-quoted 'homophobic thug' insult, and the suggestion that anyone who doesn't want 'timewasters' turned back, must be a supporter of human slavery/misery etc.
Sad bunch indeed, but no less than I expected.
Now now. You'll have bakershite, chicken little, das reich and the other idiot all in tears with callousness like that.

I read somewhere that she is survived by 4 Children and 13 Grandchildren, and I thought "Are they sure about those numbers?"
Maybe the loss of a Parent will encourage Boris Johnson to be more than just a sperm donor to more of his offspring?

Read my post without your hate filled spectacles on. His mother has dead. I express my sympathy as a fellow human being, not as a political comment like some ********s have taken the opportunity to do including, it would appear, yourself. And as for you stereotyping me, that is as much prejudice as the worst of the people you purport to despise are guilty of.
I am sorry you lost your mother - and would have expressed my regrets to you had I known about it at the time, in the same way as I express regrets now. But, in the context of this thread I'm afraid your loss is just a lot of whataboutery.
So you can f*ck right off too. I despise stereotyping and the outcome of stereotyping, namely prejudice, pure and simple. And nasty. As is your foul-moutherd name calling. Time for yu to go on ignore until you learn some manners, sunshine.

Not a patch on”let the bodies pile high in their thousands”
I doubt many of the high and righty could have even told you her name this time yesterday.

No you’re quite right, ‘mum’ was good enough for me
