Where is Johnson?

Couldn't agree more. Chaos outside. Some counts put the country's excess deaths at 55,000 now. The government's own count shows us heading towards 40,000. His KEY aide being defamed in the media.

Stone cold silence. Invisible.

There was a ‘Where’s Boris?’ thread on Wednesday.

Can this question not be tacked onto that one?

Gransnet threads seem to be rather repetitive and a bit boring lately.

It does seem to be a real issue at the moment. Where is he???

Don’t read it then calender meanwhile I think the question is worth asking as long as the UK’s PM thinks it fine to disappear and not provide the leadership so badly needed.

I would expect him certainly to turn up at the press conference this evening to defend or otherwise his spad. He is the only one who can sack DC.

If he has any integrity, he is sitting with his head in his hands, trying to do the right thing by the public.

Don't you dare hide again today @BorisJohnson - front the daily briefing & tell the British public why it was one rule for them & another for your chief adviser.
Or be damned by your cowardice.

Who will be the “patsy” to take the questions this evening.

Here is a handy game to pass the time as they squirm and lie

Johnson must be so relieved that there is no PMQs this week.

SPAD bingo! Should we start a book on which excuse is going to be trotted out?

I expect they're practising different versions of the truth as we speak..

"I know! Let's say you didn't have it"

"No, that won't wash. How about we say you did have it and that's why?"

I n the fridge. Awkward questions coming up, where would he be ?

I did laugh at the “patsy” comment. I wonder which minister is currently highest on Boris’ shit list.

I thought he was taking paternity leave.

From yet another friend I heard how the rest of Europe look on Britain as laughing stock and I’m afraid our PM symbolises that. I really wish that were not the case, I would have been delighted for Boris to prove me wrong and do a decisive dignified statesmanlike job.

Oh the irony of Whitewave quoting Piers Morgan!!!

I'm not sure they're laughing exactly. They're certainly horrified at our death rate. It's as I've thought for quite a while (pre-Boris, so this is definitely not a post election jab) that we've slipped a long way in the world order.

My overseas friends (Brit ex-pats and other non Brits) are watching the UK in horror, in the same way we watched China and Italy in horror a few months ago. They just can't believe we have mismanaged it so badly.

I would guess that BJ is still suffering the after-effects of Covid-19 and isn’t really fit enough to do any job properly yet, never mind lead the country. Trouble is, having surrounded himself with compliant nonentities there is an enormous vacuum in government; said nonentities are running round like headless chickens and no sensible decisions being made.

Heavens above, could that possibly mean that Whitewave has been reading the Daily Heil? Who would've thought? ...

Oh Grant Shapps or is it Mr Green? Is the patsy.

Still no Johnson.

More Morgan to comment on

Some questions for journalists to ask at the 4pm briefing:
Did the Cummings family stop at a service station or any other place for food, drink or loo break on their 250-mile journey?
If so, where & is there CCTV footage showing how many people they possibly infected?

Not a Piers Morgan fan ,but by heavens he has certainly held the "government" to book this past few weeks...that when he can actually get one of them to answer( dodge) his questions I think there was about 20 days they declined his invitation to APPEAR.

A friend of mine who is working from home is in daily contact with a work colleague in Germany who says the Germans cannot believe how the UK government has been/is currently handling the pandemic.

Grant Shapps is the patsy
