Well, at least it's a baby with a face!
Congratulations.

Still not your business.

Ah, but the minute you put yourself out there on public social media, it then becomes “everyone’s business”

Well this don't show the face photo of one's little daughter surely takes the biscuit today! 😂

Ah, what a little honey 🍯

Are they being criticised for not showing the older ones’ faces? No, thought not.

Very sweet I suppose but I can’t get excited about the top of children’s heads.

No doubt they will be brought up with a fleet of nannies.

It was far cheaper from us to have nannies than to pay for nursery care and that was back in the 1980’s

I wish the latest Johnson tribe and their parents well. I’m surprised by the number of posters who state the children will be loved and well brought up. Little evidence that Mr Johnson was a reliable or even regularly present father to his earlier children

I think Carrie will do a great job a parenting and will ensure what Johnson does, or doesn’t do, she’ll ensure her babies are well taken care of and much loved.

Thats what lots of women believe, having a good mother can compensate for a rather less than perfect father. Many a therapist makes a good living from the adult children of these families.

these families

Exactly which families I wonder?

BlueBelle Mon 26-May-25 17:39:04

Well I guess when everything is plastered on TV radio social media and newspapers it becomes our business by default want it or not
I m not interested in either of them snd with his track record I feel rather sorry for the child but there we go that’s just an opinion in a world where as far as I know we re still allowed opinions

Dear God.
You can't leave it alone, can you.

TerriBull. The planet won’t be fine. It isn’t fine now. Human greed is destroying everything. We need far fewer people if the natural world is ever to recover. Birds, animals and plants are disappearing at an alarming rate. Anyone who thinks we need more people needs to wake up.

It depends on the type of people.

When I said that population decrease was not a bad thing on GN, I was brought to task by posters who said we need younger people to pay for our services, for our pensions!

A pretty baby and congratulations

But it's number nine for Boris !

So what?

None of our business.

I would have thought the greatest fear of getting old was becoming patronising smile

Yes, that too. Sometimes I catch myself being a grump and I have to regroup or isolate. Positivity and cheerfullness can be difficult as we age but its important to pay attention to what we spread to others.

My mum always said, "If you cant say something nice, say nothing". Now its probably, "If you cant remember something nice, say nothing"

Agreed, but that was a result of him never being able to get away with anything😁

Fair enough!

Still can’t sand him haha But have nothing against his wives or children

Good, neither have I 😃
He was always found out in lies and never being prepared , he didn’t do ‘details’ apparently so then went into bumbling mode and crazy hair.
A really clever politician wouldn’t have always been rumbled.
