    TBH if he was a mate of mine I'd be worried he was having a breakdown.

    He's holed up in a flat, looks in a dishevelled state and isn't communicating much with the outside world.

    Seriously, his ministers, like Hancock, aren't referring to him and his latest message to the nation was like a WhatsApp message to his girlfriend ...

    ... 'Speak soon' ffs.

    Yesterday I say a young lass with a baby in arms. Comes across a young couple she obviously knew, sounded like hadn't seen for a while. So its all hugs and finally big kisses for the baby... What chance do we stand.

    This is from a nurse via Mushbook . . . .

    This is to all those of you who’ve decided to go out for day trips in the sun this weekend.

    Don’t you dare stand on your doorsteps and clap and cheer for us, the NHS, on Thursday, you hypocritical scumbags.

    When this is eventually over, don’t you dare pat yourselves on the back and say ‘we got through this together’

    YOU put NHS lives at risk, whilst we are trying so hard to help and protect you and yours

    YOU put vulnerable peoples' lives at risk

    YOU probably cause people to die

    YOU should be very very ashamed, but you won’t because YOU are a group of selfish arseholes and I know that one day Karma will get you.

    That sums it up for me :emoticon-0105-wink:

    I doubt if any of the rule breakers will be bothered to give up a few minutes of their time to show appreciation . However I’m also in no doubt that these people will be having and leading the celebration “ we beat the virus” party’s

    I've lived my life 'on the edge' and continually taken risks.

    It's occasionally gone wrong, sometimes seriously, and I've been shot at, stabbed and threatened with death by deadly people.

    I laughed at it then and still laugh about it now, but I'm currently staying at home, going out only when vital and wearing a mask out of respect for other people.

    I've been a rebel all my life but am sitting here doing as I'm told ...

    ... anyone who's taking the piss, through arrogance or stupidity, wants a ****ing good slap.

    He was obviously not considered to be well enough to be taking charge of the briefings, otherwise, as I said earlier, he would have. It doesn't matter that Nick Hancock was well enough to stand in for him, 'cos he was obviously a different case, and we should trust what the doctors/experts say before we slag him, or anyone, off for not being well enough to return to work yet :emoticon-0145-shake

    Good luck, Boris :emoticon-0148-yes:

    "According to the BBC, he was admitted to hospital as a “precautionary step” advised by his doctor. It is believed the hospital admission is not an emergency, and is largely for precautionary testing. It is not yet known whether he will remain in care overnight."

    Still has a temperature then ;)

    Breathtaking arrogance from someone who can't possibly plead ignorance.

    Her 'apology' was her basically saying "Oh dear, what a pity, never mind."

    Horrible specimen who's actions will cost more lives than she's saved.

    He still has symptoms 10 days after testing positive - the virus affects people differently and this high temperature could be a sign that his body is not fighting it off effectively.
    They just said on the news that he could be kept in hospital overnight.

    I wonder if they're playing it down a bit. I know it's been claimed he had mild symptoms but in the video you posted, he didn't just look disheveled, he looked ill to me. A little video on twitter doesn't need to stand up to scrutiny as much as a Skype conference with journalists.

    No way she was keeping her position like. Shows the level of arrogance in the ruling elite that she thought she could, mind, and as for Sturgeon backing her up, hope that's another political suicide in the making.

    If he's seriously ill just say so and get off to hospital, the country won't collapse without him.

    If he's not put a tie on and start acting like the head of government.

    This shuffling around is just starting to look poor imo ...

    ... I'm not too bothered but it's just a little weak.
