Is Michael Gove ill? ** Title edited by GNHQ **

Am not surprised that quite a few politicians have the virus, being in London and in Westminster up to recently and trying to do their jobs properly, made social distancing very difficult for them.

Yes lemongrove stupid and soooooooo boring

Hear! Hear! Lemon and Nn!????

I admire *Paddyanne for her ability to use almost any subject as a straw man with which to beat anyone who doesn’t support the SNP.

You are bang out of order laying into paddy anne like this.

How come all the kindness stuff doesn't apply to her?

Thank you janeainsworth and others, for correctly realising what my comment referred to.

Perhaps it's because constantly calling people parasites because of the familyly they belong to and others eegits and other similar unpleasant names doesn't exactly encourage kindness!

How come all the kindness stuff doesn't apply to her?

Read her posts, Greymar. No one has been uncivil to paddyanne, in spite of them.

Maybe one reaps what one sows, Greymar.

jane, yes they have. I find her ideas interesting . Good Luck paddy anne, and to your family.

Good luck to all those folks who at this present moment are trying to get us through this terrible situation.
It is they who need our best wishes.

Hear hear, *Greymar !

Insulting people is interesting?! That's novel!!!

Some fine insults being thrown elsewhere right now. Still, that’s freedom of speech for you.

What do you mean no one has been unkind to her.

I saw her post and all I read for the first page and half was abuse, vile post, get it deleted, no don't do that let it stay to show what a nasty person she is, and on and on.

Quiet frankly I find that there is a gang of old biddies who use Boris as their god throwing insults out left right and centre to anyone who doesn't agree with their admiration.

It could be that one of his children has it or has been in contact with someone showing symptoms.
How long since schools finished?

The ruth is very scarce on GN so I understand you might not hav eheard that before
paddyanne

I agree that occasionally some erroneous posts claim to be the truth when, in fact, a little checking would reveal that they are nothing but hot air.

There was one recently about Royal Marines marching into a Scottish laboratory and seizing all the testing equipment to take to London.
A little research and it was found to be distorted facts.

It's as well to check the facts, everyone.

This is why threads /posts should not be deleted.

Posters remember what they want to and ignore what they don't.

Posters believe without challenge what was posted and are ignorant of the ' facts' that later emerge.

This is just another thread that will get deleted because another that was deleted still angers many. Deletion can be counter productive.

That's really rather ridiculous, barmeyoldbat

Even those who don't admire Boris, didn't want him as PM, can show a little decency towards an ill man.

old biddies are you a youngster then?
This is Gransnet, people tend to be older, if not biddies which I believe is a rather derogatory term.

I must say, I find some of paddyanne's posts a hoot. I've never come across anyone with such extreme views like that and I know quite a few Scots.

a woman, especially an elderly one, regarded as annoying or interfering

Nice, barmeyoldbat

Although I did know a Welsh Nationalist many years ago who tended to rant on and on but that's another story
