...but not in government matters he’s sired an offspring

You are right Chestnut I couldn't couldn't cope with Boris - I couldn't cope with his philandering and wandering eye.

Authoress Sun 01-Mar-20 10:27:33

Let's hope he keeps track of this one.

For those wondering how Carrie could possibly do it with ol' BJ, let me remind you of Mrs. Merton's question to Debbie McGee. "Tell me, what first attracted you to millionaire... etc" and power is a massive aphrodisiac too.
I also think it'll take more than getting married to make an honest man of him. If he were a woman, he'd never have made it to no. 10 but would be considered a feckless slut. Double standards or what.

GG13 it isn't nasty to consider a young woman may have made a big mistake. Look at the evidence Wife No1 divorced 12 days later he re-marries. Wife No 2 during this marriage there is evidence of at least 3 affairs one of which resulted in a child. 4 children from marriage. Within 11 days of divorce announces engagement and baby. There is also still the pole dancer investigation. Would you really be so happy if Carrie was your daughter?
I remember when the Conservative party was the party of morality and standards! grin

GG13 I agree - just because you dislike her partners politics is no excuse for the disdainful remarks aimed as this woman pregnant with her first child.

GrannyGravy13 Sun 01-Mar-20 10:02:06

Really nasty posts on here about a young woman expecting her first child with a man she loves.confused

Chestnut Sun 01-Mar-20 09:56:59

Ha ha, most posters clearly couldn't cope with an alpha male like Boris. And yet I bet you all loved the King in 'The King and I' with his harem.

It's not money that impresses

Fact is Boris's children have a father who is wealthy enough to support them very well

A 'feckless' father of multiple children won't be doing anything to support his children

Can't really compare

Barmeyoldbat Sun 01-Mar-20 09:44:02

If Boris was living on a Council Estate and fathering children everywhere he would be labelled freckless, a dead beat etc. But no there are people who think it is wonderful. Shows how money can impress.

Corbyn, older than partner and politician. BJ older than partner and politician. Wow, amazing link.

Curlywhirly Sun 01-Mar-20 09:13:00

Good grief Kandinsky - secretly envious of Carrie having Boris as a partner! I don't envy her one bit - with his romantic track record, I would be surprised if she ever knows a moment's peace. I know I wouldn't trust him as far as I could throw him!

Anniebach Sun 01-Mar-20 09:00:52

Yes you speak as a Corbyn fan GagaJo , I speak of two
politicians who have something in common .

Ginny42 Sun 01-Mar-20 08:59:46

If he wasn't PM in the spotlight there may have been a different ending to this romance. She will have the best possible health care and I hope her pregnancy goes well with a healthy baby. Who would wish them harm? I only hope he means his promises this time.

GagaJo Sun 01-Mar-20 08:56:52

Corbyn is irrelevant Annie. On the way out. And I speak as a leftie.

Stay relevant!

Anniebach Sun 01-Mar-20 08:53:58

Corbyn is the only politician I know of who has been married
three times and the third wife much younger.

Greymar Sun 01-Mar-20 08:44:49

Hilarious comments. Annie, love how you managed to weave Corbyn into the conversation. As for being envious, that's just so funny. My partner may not be George Clooney but he is a hard working person with integrity, so no, I'm not jealous of Carrie.

Moocow Sun 01-Mar-20 08:41:13

kaddinsky is that you Boris! Sorry couldn't resist grin

vegansrock Sun 01-Mar-20 08:39:32

Let’s hope she doesn’t touch her bump too much or some on here will accuse her of drawing attention to herself.

Juliet27 Sun 01-Mar-20 08:28:33

Apparently ‘Ms Symonds has a passion for conservation and uses her Twitter account to share news about animal cruelty and plastic waste.’ Well that’s a plus.

GagaJo Sun 01-Mar-20 08:08:47

Exactly BlueBelle. Only a deadbeat dad when you abandon your children if you're working class, obviously.

Calendargirl Sun 01-Mar-20 08:07:48

Yes, that’s true Kandinsky,about other famous men having multiple partners and children.
If I remember rightly, both Mick and Rod fathered babies that they didn’t acknowledge for years, although that changed I think as time went by.
Now they are just viewed as grand old statesmen and family men.

GagaJo Sun 01-Mar-20 08:07:01

Secretly envious? Talk about a groupie Kandinsky. Ever heard of Stockholm syndrome?

BlueBelle Sun 01-Mar-20 08:00:34

Oh my word Secretively envious! that’s making me splutter into my coffee you really are a joker kandinsky I can’t think of anybody less attractive as a partner, he lands alongside the ‘dashing’ Rees Mogg, Farage and Trump cor! the temptation

I find both their outward appearance, which poor souls they can do nothing about but more importantly their very nasty (polite word) personalities a very big turn off
I hope Carrie knows what she’s doing and has a hard shell when another ‘bit on the side’ comes to light

I think it’s a bit telling that it seems as if none of his other children have much if anything to do with him
I wonder what you would say if it was Joe Soap on benefits having multiple partners and babies !

Urmstongran Sun 01-Mar-20 07:50:04

Boris’ divorce was finalised a couple of weeks ago. It was reported that Marina got a £4 million settlement. I think she signed an NDA too.

Kandinsky Sun 01-Mar-20 07:42:06

Maybe she loves him?
Maybe he’s great to be around?

Plenty of men with money & fame have multiple relationships ( & children ) look at Mick Jagger, Rod Stewart, & countless others.
I think some women are secretly envious, because they know for all Boris’s faults, he wouldn’t touch them with a barge pole.
Carrie is young & very attractive.
