Boris and Carrie have just announced the birth of a daughter. No further news yet.

It's always good news when a healthy baby makes an appearance - even one fathered by Bozzer. I hope Carrie and daughter are doing well.

I assume all posters have previously welcomed lovely babies born to mothers on benefits and those in poorer countries, and not expressed worry about the world's population.

I do wish that little girl a great journey in this world- but oh my, it's not going to be easy.

Clementine

I really like Clementine but do you think she'd get teased?
I wanted Holly for my Christmas baby but DH wasn't so keen, but I still love it.

It will probably be an old-fashioned name, like Wilfred.
I had an Uncle Wilfred, loved him dearly.

Some of the comments on here regarding the birth of a new baby (whoever it’s parents) are appalling and some posters really should be ashamed. They certainly have revealed their true colours in the worst possible way on this thread.

Some disgusting comments. Any woman who has just given birth deserves congratulations, not hatred and disdain. Congratulations to them both.

Too many kids from him. The world is overpopulated.

Tell that to the lady with 21 children, yes??

Some very nasty comments here about the birth of a child. Some of you should be ashamed. You come across as miserable old buggers.
Congratulations to them both.

I'm afraid I'm still stuck on the suggestion that they call her something that means "snow" after this week's revelations of what was found in the HoC toilets.... shock

Some BRILLIANT news to share‼️

I reported my own post to GNHQ and asked whether they would consider separating the News threads from the Politics ones and Lily has just replied to say they are going to do so.

I’m really pleased! I think many of us will be too. ?

Thank you GNHQ!

Good news, well done Urmstongran

Well done Urmstongran. Lily told me we have to put it in site stuff to gauge the interest in doing this?

Where shall we begin?
Can anyone remember when the first request went in to GNHQ please?

Eira means snow doesn't it, I had an aunty Eira.

Yes, I know a couple of Eiras (both Welsh)

Namsnanny Thu 09-Dec-21 12:59:05

EllanVannin ? I take it the bring back EV thread worked!!

Sorry OP, back to Carrie. I'm wondering if she will have the same hair as her brother?
I saw a photo of Boris and Wilfred the other day, - W. had masses of hair. Quite a trade mark. If his sister has the same, knowing girls she will probably hate it!

Calistemon Thu 09-Dec-21 12:58:37

I shouldn't laugh but ?

Boris could always choose Emmanuelle for the baby, for two reasons!

Thankyou to those ladies for your kind words. xx

Galaxy

You do understand that wouldnt stop anyone posting a view about Johnson on a news thread.

That's sort of true Galaxy but they might get tired after a while and skulk back to the Politics threads! I live in hope.

Whatever my feelings about Boris I'm glad Carrie has had her baby safely. Good luck and happiness little girl.

Good to see you posting again EllanVannin ??
