When will this shit end?

Bardell gets nothing. And nope, it's his own party as well. Caroline Johnson gets the same.

Something to add to the pile of things for which I believe him to be an utter shitbiscuit.

I don’t think it’s based on party or gender. Not sure what makes someone right honourable but it does seem to be a title rather than a preference made by Bojo

It's unthinkable isn't it? Did you think 6 months ago you would be living your life under these conditions for the next year? Is there anyone on here that still thinks Glastonbury is going ahead next year? Your lives have all changed forever and you don't realise it, we're never going back to how it was.

I realise my life has changed, stop arrogantly thinking that you know how others feel about matters.

The Army won’t be on your street, I know how much you love a conspiracy but they will be brought into help with logistics and testing. You won’t see check points or armed guards on street corners forcing people back home.

It's a general tradition / courtesy in the house, so not required. But it's noticeable that the male MPs get a right honourable from Johnson, while the female MPs don't.

It's by far the lowest thing on the list of reasons why I think he's a dick. Not exclusively as Crouch did just get it, but she's been a rarity in the last half an hour.

A low level tactical nuke would improve Gipton. I’ve actually got family there too 😂

It depends if they are part of the Privy Council or Cabinet/Shadow Cabinet. 
 

He could still call them his honourable friend.

I *think* whether you're honourable or right honourable has something to do with sitting on the privy council.  But I don't know what the privy council actually is.  I don't know why Johnson isn't using the title for everyone.

This answer isn't much use.  Sorry.

Right Honourable is for privy council members and others of high office, your garden variety MP should just be referred to as Honourable. I can't be bothered checking if Boris is just not bothering for anyone in that category or whether it's a genuine issue with women.

I would agree with that. It’s a long way off until a decision has to be made and the info about a vaccine was the only crumb of comfort yesterday. We will be heading into the summer months and hopefully the measures being implemented today might arrest this increase in infection.

You’ll need more than a low yield nuke to improve Beeston. The only reason it’s still there is because of Elland Road 😉😂

About half of these questions have been about extending furlough or financial support. - How long till Rishi Sunak is adressing the commons?

I'm 50/50 too...currently not looking good...but things change, who knows where we'll be come February.

I think Glastonbury is going ahead next year. I’ve never steered you guys wrong with this type of prediction 😉

Ha ha ha. Snap.

Quite like the sound of martial law.  I'd volunteer for that.  I have a mate who's quite right wing and who has a collection of shotguns.  We could police the mean streets of Windermere, keeping them free from the libtards, the anti maskers and the Champagne Superspreaders.

[steviewevie]

correspondent woman on itv news last night was suggesting that vaccine thing was thrown in there at the end by Vallance to give the public hope that this won't be forever...when in fact he can't actually say for sure if we'll ever have a vaccine.

Aye, checked myself and you're all correct, Rt Hon is for specific members so my bad.

General MPs should be referred to as honourable, and for the period I was listening it was definitely noticeable that he was less likely to use it for the female MPs. 

Again, it's not the worst thing he's done, and a lot of people will see it as not really mattering.  But it's those little ingrained behaviours in someone like that that just act to undermine. He probably doesn't even realise he des it. Twatwaffle.
