So they either lied before saying Johnson was in control or they're lying now saying he's taking control because he already has it?
Somehow he's subtly trying to pretend that he wasn't in charge. I think we already had this debate at the beginning where some people on the thread were trying to claim that the scientists were.
I mean they have done this shit with Brexit as well, the whole "Boris is getting involved now", i think it's about creating some sort of image of him as somebody who gets things done. He doesn't. He is a useless lump of lard and it is to this country's immense shame that he is the Prime Minister.
Think this is most likely. Sick leave and then maternity leave and now this. You could very easily draw the conclusion that they want to give the impression that everything that's happened up till now is not Johnsons fault.
Then hope that things get better from here on in and the people saying no second wave our right. Present Johnson as the hero who came in and saved the day rather than a bumbling idiot who caused tens of thousands of unnecessary deaths.

Johnson getting utterly destroyed at PMQs.
He is genuinely pathetic.
How can anyone watch this and have confidence in him as a leader?
Are we certain Johnson and Dom aren't the same person?Fucking hell, Boris is getting upset because Keir is not being positive!
Got to say, I think Johnson has been shredded today.
He was asked why we're introducing quarantines now when cases are on the way down and other countries are lifting them
'Because we want to avoid a second rise of cases'
Bullshit, total bullshit
I'm not confidentAre we certain Johnson and Dom aren't the same person?

Not sure what you are trying to hint at with that comment?Are we certain Johnson and Dom aren't the same person?
The quarantine thing I don't get at all.
When you assume that its all been about herd immunity then everything they have done sort of now makes sense- it has been textbook in fact in terms of pretending you want a full lockdown approach but in reality wanting to get herd immunity- planes coming in, half arsed & late lockdowns, terrible testing, care homes, Cummings and all the rest- they have been walking the line between aiming for controlled herd immunity and simultaneously presenting the facade to the public that they want something different & much more publicly palatable. There are anomalies to this but there are 67m people in the UK, you can't control everything & everyone all the time. But when you look back at the 'failings' and then analyse them against the backdrop of a herd immunity strategy, makes much more sense. Either that or they really are the thickest, most stupid, most inept bunch ever- and I don't think you can say they are all unintelligent people. The pile on is justified but it also hides something much bigger which is what did they actually want to achieve? Go with herd immunity and it all makes a lot more sense. It also makes them culpable for thousands of deaths so don't expect any admissions any time soon.
But I don't get how this quarantine fits in, unless they've worked out that it genuinely would swamp the NHS this time.
Chatting absolute shit again, prickDom is just a straight up wind up merchant. Which is a bit warped when you're using thousands of deaths as your 'material', but each to their own.
I genuinely wonder if it’s merely a response to other countries that have said they won’t accept arrivals from our country because our infection rate is too high and not under control.
Johnson complaining about people not being positive when we have one of, if not the, highest death rates in the world. No working track and trace. Testing numbers still tens of thousands below the level promised.Not sure what you are trying to hint at with that comment?

No reason why it couldn't reopen at reduced capacity, it isn't as if you're that close to each other anywayAbsolute madness. Fine to have crowded beaches and parks. Fine to open non-essential shops up. But somewhere like Chester Zoo, with 128 acres, not allowed to open.
Do you think Boris cares though? Its over 4 years until an election- he might be a bit uncomfortable in there but I doubt he really gives a toss aside from being annoyed he has to spend some of his valuable personal time attending these annoying meetings, I don't think it matters to him what Starmer or anyone else says to him in there.
Are you on the wind up. Your take away from the most disastrous performance I can remember seeing in PMQs is 'Boris nailed it'?Boris nailed it when he said starmers policy is ‘agree, criticise and u turn’ it’s all he ever seems to do....
The irony that Starmer has forced Boris into multiple u turns though through PMQs.Boris nailed it when he said starmers policy is ‘agree, criticise and u turn’ it’s all he ever seems to do....
He wanted the restrictions lifted a few weeks ago and now he’s against it
When did Starmer want the restrictions lifted? I can remember him repeatedly asking what the plan was but can't recall him saying restrictions should be removed now.He wanted the restrictions lifted a few weeks ago and now he’s against it

Hancock gleefully opened up horse racing before he addressed over 2m over 70s, which pretty much sums up the "humanity" of this government.He wanted to see a strategy, the government since told vulnerable people they can go outside without any clear explanation why. I think that is the opposite of a strategy.

So hes definitely to blame for our poor handling of this thing
Thanks for clarifying. He needs to go.
Wow have you watched every one?
