Mr Tourette Posted May 24, 2020 Share Posted May 24, 2020 Get that Dan Hodges from yesterday back on to back him up. He might have sobered up a bit by now? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Benjamin_Nevis Posted May 24, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted May 24, 2020 It simply can't be overstated just what a fat fucking coward Boris Johnson is. Imagine voting for that c**t and his party of sociopathic rich kids. Tories really are a sub-species. 29 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Granny Danger Posted May 24, 2020 Share Posted May 24, 2020 The choice or Shapps to front this up will be deliberate. He will try (unsuccessfully) to steer things toward his transport policy, but the main attribute will be the fact that he presents as inoffensive. Whoever they chose would have found it impossible to defend Cummings but someone like Raab or Patel would have got people’s backs up more with their ignorance and her smugness. I’m not surprised Johnson is nowhere to be seen. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stumigoo Posted May 24, 2020 Share Posted May 24, 2020 I'm not a Sturgeon cheerleader, and certainly don't think she has been perfect during this pandemic, but one thing is for sure, she would facing this stuff head-on and would offer herself up for interview. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lying has become second nature for everyone in this Government. It’s hardly surprising given that it is led by a prolific liar and charlatan. I just hope it wasn't another baldy big domed beady eyed c**t the witness saw. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benjamin_Nevis Posted May 24, 2020 Share Posted May 24, 2020 I watched the last few minutes of Marr (of all people) running rings round Shapps. Jesus f**k. Is this the kind of person the UK has in a cabinet making important decisions? Absolutely fucking hopeless. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stumigoo Posted May 24, 2020 Share Posted May 24, 2020 It's the arrogance of this "well the guidance has actually been clear all along that you can use your discretion, and use your sensibility when making choices, especially when young children are involved". The actual Cummings thing isn't the main issue for me (although he shouldn't have travelled). It is the sheer arrogance and sneering attitude by the Tories, treating everyone like little idiot plebs, and doing it so openly. It is no surprise that they behave like this but it is still fucking infuriating. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carl Cort's Hamstring Posted May 24, 2020 Share Posted May 24, 2020 They've completely f*cked this because they've treated it as part of their 'up is down' culture wars and backed they could drag their supporters with them. Supporters who have been staying at home and not seeing their loved ones because the government told them not to. If he had just apologised immediately, they probably could have ridden out the storm. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
superbigal Posted May 24, 2020 Share Posted May 24, 2020 Transport Secretary also wheeled out on Andrew Marr. It's the opposite. He was always scheduled for Marr.Now you know why they gave him the briefing yesterday. So only one Tory is made to look an idiot. Why noone has asked why Cummings felt he could not get support from anyone in London is beyond me. No mates ? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gordon EF Posted May 24, 2020 Share Posted May 24, 2020 If Grant Shapps was your supervisor for your summer job at Greggs during the school holidays, you'd be rolling your eyes daily at his constant gormless incompetency. We (the UK) have chosen him as one of the people to run our whole fucking country. Let that sink in. 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
