Boris wishes us “The Best of Luck”

It either sounds like he's sending us off into battle or we've got to pass some kind of test!

Better than hearing it from Micron?

Luck may be a more reliable thing to rely on than Boris.

At least he realises that we definitely need luck on our side with him in charge!

From what I read he was addressing all those who would be enjoying outdoor sports again and wishing them luck
For some what ever he says it wont be right

Does he mean 'Good luck. You're on your own now. Survive or die in the name of herd immunity'?

Oh crikey was it in relation to outdoor sports. Am back to watching junior football this weekend, we will definitely lose now.

Maybe he will say, "Break a leg!" when the theatres and shows go back.

Hmm. Seems it’s not just the Daily Mail indulging in click bait here.

I can't stop humming that Gracie Fields tune. Wish me Luck. My Grandpa used to love it

Fraid so Urms

Are these his final words before he jumps ship?

Yes have now read the complete article and yes he is referring to sports. Why is it some of us are always prepared to think the worse of him? Maybe based on some of his past history during the pandemic? Yes I know we have had a wonderful result from the vaccine programme. But think we owe an awful lot of that to our wonderful scientists and the dedicated health workers and volunteers who along with the Army have worked tirelessly to make it happen so the Government can’t take all the credit for that.

And my MIL.
My Mum hated it and I'm none too keen!

Well said Curlygirl!

Saves time later

Stringent measures were put in place to protect the populace; they are now being relaxed and people will have to take some responsibility for their well-being.
Therefore good luck seems entirely appropriate.
But so much easier to sneer.

Those of us who are “sneering” are probably the people who have abided by the rules and tried to do the right thing and are justifyably annoyed when the Government do not seem to exercise proper judgement. My husband and myself “locked down” last year a week before the Government said. In doing so we had to cancel a planned family lunch for our 51st Wedding Anniversary. Now scientists say that if the country had locked down a week before it did thousands of lives could have been saved. This was just the first of so many wrong or too late decisions this Goverment have made.So excuse me if I sneer but I feel I have every justification.

Surprised he didn't add "Over and Out"

good luck - ??? - we’re not buying a lottery ticket for goodness sake. We’re just moving back to be able to do some things we could do before this stupid PM made fatal decisions in December which led to the deaths of tens of thousands more in January and February

Sneer = having the critical ability to be able to judge the actions of Johnson based on evidence and not adulation

This thread has really cheered me up after trying to read the 27 pages about Megan and Harry.

Boris is no orator. He never seems to be fully aware of the facts so bumbles his way through a reply. He has come out with some strange statements and gaffes and he won't be finished yet.
