Currently in Rishi's flat checking his freezer.

I'm 100% certain they'd been watching the England game.

Which bit, coz I didn’t hear anyone laughing - countries in the poop just like many others, what do you suggest the government does

Cmon give me something to smile about

Boris is the worst prime minister we have ever had. Fact

Go on clickbait give me the facts based upon the current circumstances

Could you imagine how Prime Ministerial he'd come across as if he ever came to one of these news conference specials by announcing some details the countries population didnt already know about?

The government needs a coherent strategy - this just seems so knee jerk all the time. I get these are very difficult times but he seems completely out of control and out of his depth. Only announced on Tuesday we were going into tier 3 now we are not - its bonkers

If we having lockdowns make them proper lockdowns not this let's close all the place where people can get a release from all the stress. The only places where they have contained the virus are either islands with small populations e.g. NZ/Australia or countries with very strict state intervention.

First thing we could do is stop international travel - keep the virus contained here, isolate the vulnerable, contain students to their campus, allocate times when people can move around?

It's utterly unforgivable that the new lockdown didn't happen 6 weeks ago when it was recommended by Sage.
How many more people have become infected and how many more people have died (and will still die) as a result of the governments inaction.
Having failed to stop movement quickly enough in March, they've done it again. It's an absolute scandal.

Add to that the timing, when most retail businesses do the bulk of their businesses and now have to close, when the "Christmas Rush" would normally be in full effect, I'm (almost) speechless.

The level of planning seems really good too - announcing a news conference at 4.0 and finally making it in front of the cameras after 6.30. He must have run out of room on the back of his "fag packet" response to the pandemic.

Shower and schmidt spring to mind.

They had to see the end of the 6 Nations game!!

Even the WHO say lockdowns don't work - all it will do is push the problem further on as did the last lockdown.

The only two good thing is schools remaining open - kids need to be in school - and a return of the original Furlough.

To give Boris his due he didn't want it but I suspect Hancock has leaked it to force him into it. Expect to see Hunt as health secretary before the end of the lockdown.

Sadly the lockdown is unlikely to finish in December - more like March.

Nobody WANTS a lockdown.
Surely, it's whatever is best for the population and if there is to be a lockdown, move quickly and dont allow the numbers to get even further out of control.
Boris had the audacity to mock Starmer a few weeks ago, when he had suggested a "fire break" and now, he's had to go with it.
10,000 of extra cases and 1000's of needless deaths.

Schools remaining open is debatable but, just imaging if the lockdown had been while the half term was being taken

Johnson is responsible for more deaths than the UK most prolific killer and he doesn't give a toss.
