When will this shit end?

[Dave85radiohead]

Reckon he’s going to announce that they’re relaxing lockdown and people can now go and see family and friends and get together in gardens . Maybe announce pubs to open in June too.

He likes to give the good news himself and will want to distract from Cummings as much as he can.

Still hope Cummings will go though . Depends how much pressure comes from the back benchers and if the Mirror has an ace up it’s sleeve.

When Boris announces an internal inquiry (I don't think it's an 'if' sadly) I desperately hope the public, media and opposition continue to kick up a storm - because that will absolutely not solve anything. Everyone remember the Russia inquiry?

Anyone know a man in the mirror ?

He's just going to announce an inquiry I bet and dodge any questions. 

That's looking like the strategy, buying time and hope it blows over, the thing is in normal times a political figure doing the wrong thing is only of interest to people who follow politics, in this circumstance EVERYONE in the country has been affected by this and they can see he has clearly taken the piss. If they just carry on they will lose the goodwill of the public and a lot of Tory supporters too. Any inquiry can't alter the facts and people already know what happened.

Wow. A small part of me admires the stubbornness but a much larger part of me thinks he's an absolute twat.

Was just about to post this myself, it doesn't surprise me tbh - double down he wasn't wrong and maybe announce some "good news" as distraction

[steviewevie]

Johnson really needs him...anyone else and they'd be gone.

Boris trying to bumble his way out of this is heading for a complete car crash. Shapps can at least form sentences with some type of coherence.

They can't relax lockdown till June 1st, they explicitly stated it over and over again.

It seems they can do what they want..... goal posts moved to suit

Johnson doesn't like to follow rules either, he probably thinks Cummings as cool as fuck and will hope this blows over in a few days...and maybe it will.

Oh I know, just felt like pointing it out.

 

They will be trying to 'dead cat' us in this briefing, so watch out for it.

It worked when Boris prorogued parliament illegally and when it was confirmed Vote Leave broke the law.

I know but they were also very explicit with the stay at home message until it didn’t suit.

Bloody traffic on the M5 ... nightmare 

Incredible! 😁 just thinking about what it’s like for us on the way to the festival, especially after driving the length of the M74 and M6! And the hordes of festival goers at the last two service stations (Michaelwood?) before leaving the motorway for Glasto.

Of course he does, he holds the whole of the public in such contempt.

He'll be making allowances for that weren't there at the time. It's one rule for them and another for us.
