Boris Johnson 8pm televised address - official match thread

[rogersix]

would you like a whoosh mr. bot botts?

South Africa is banned - minus cargo

As others have pointed out. No direct flights. Indirect not an issue as no checks whatsoever

 

[South Stand Bonfire]

I’m going for 8.03pm until he quotes something in latin.

 

[Harry Wilson's tackle]

In recent times Frankie Boyle had become, imho, stale and predictable.

I enjoyed the New Year show however, and I can recommend it on iPlayer where the obvious target of BoJo et al cop it but Starmer received a pretty accurate and fitting tribute also.

Starmer has no more clue about a strategy than you or I.

Did Frankie tell you that? Somehow that doesn't help me relax.

You may be right. Neither you nor I nor Starmer are in power. Were Starmer in power, however......as for you and I, no, there is no hope there

I watched Boyle a year ago and found his gererally measured manner, punctuated with only very infrequent extreme bad taste profanity, to be pleasing

 

[maltaseagull]

My apologies. Of course, you are right. If we had listened to Starmer we'd all be dead. Or worse.

I must have missed him telling everyone what was needed.
What was Starmer's plan?

 

[A1X]

He looks ill

 

[The Fits]

Why doesn't he comb his hair?

STARMER! do me a favour, you know he's just parroting what those bloody scientists say, don't ya; i ask ya, bleedin' starmer 'e says (shaking head in disbelief)

This is better than usual, must be scary stuff coming, he was bang on time for once too.

 

[severnside gull]

that term appears to be somewhat derogatory; i fail to see how anyone else could have done any better, mr. johnson is a world leader

Very impressive use of irony. A future in stand-up surely follows.

 

[A1X]

He bottled the decision on schools until he had to then

 

[The Wizard]

Boris looks like he’s aged about 20 years since he become PM

 

[rogersix]

A world leader whose mind that has never been violated by an original thought.

i didn't say what he led the world in

 

[The Fits]

Now come the promises we know he can't keep.

 

[Weststander]

He bottled the decision on schools until he had to then

‘Ahead of the game’ Wales and Scotland very reluctantly announced the closure of schools ...... today.

Wales up to 18 January, Scotland until 31 January. Initially,

it's in lieu of a personality

 

[The Fits]

I don't understand this really. Yes, it's nice to have a bit of positivity but it's fluffy guff. Don't give people any false hope. Stick to facts. Just say the R rate is this, hospital admissions are this, and we won't even review lockdown UNTIL the R rate is this and hospital levels are this. What is so hard about that?

 

[atomised]

February half term sounds like a minimum for schools so gone instantly longer than Scotland and wales

 

[vegster]

Shagging.

i doubt it, i was aiming at sarcasm
