I've skipped the last 10 pages, so these sort of sentiments have probably already been voiced, but this sums up how I feel... I thought it was well put...

(what's the protocol with quoting from an FB post? I've left the writer's name off, not sure if I should have left it in? It was presumably a public post.)

It is public - very sad for him and very well put.

Boris Johnson: a Life Less Honourable

Boris Johnson; a man who has lived his entire life recklessly, selfishly, irresponsibly; without any regard for the consequences. Because he’s never needed to. His enormous privilege has prot…

BBC now reporting his condition as "stable" and the man himself is "in good spirits".

Think he'll make it to the weekend?

 

[ddraig]

bollocks, why should he should have access because he is the PM? - you think the prime minister’s life is worth more than your own?

course he does! Fully paid up cap doffer init

This thread reminds me why I despise the brutality and lack of humanity displayed by the hard left. They purport to be humanists, but in fact are are eugenicist cunts. Humanity is only for the m monothoughtly rabid clique of the worthy.

Thread is now on ignore.

Paid for according to ability to pay, provided according to need.

Such antihuman socialist nonsense, eh?

Didn't you used to be a nurse????

I don't know if anyone read the comments underneath but the man's brother was denied a ventilator and had a DNR issued, and his family were told that by phone before he died. A desparately sad situation for all.

that's the best case scenario really - not dead, but very sick and unable to be PM. long may it continue

Colour me unsurprised.

Raab is the First Secretary of State, which makes him the PM's stand-in in the absence of a deputy PM. If Raab gets locked in the khazi the job falls to the Chancellor of the Exchequer.

There's a "Clap For Boris" Facebook group now...

There's a "Clap For Boris" Facebook group now...

At this time, wishing to give him the clap seems a bit mean.

At this time, wishing to give him the clap seems a bit mean.

And redundant, I strongly suspect.

Thats the group I could support

Nicola Sturgeon states that 'all of Scotland is willing Boris on'.

What we're willing him on towards hasn't been made clear...

Willing Boris or the virus on?

All gone a bit quiet on this front...or is it just me not paying attention?

Whoever's writing this, the pacing is for shit. The big reveal came too late last night for me to get properly invested, and now today they've got nothing new to maintain the tension. Also it's sunny outside and I'm watching the birds in my garden building their nests and the last thing I give a shit about is the fate of some gouty, inbred potato-human hybrid a hundred miles away.

I would not blame him, nor judge him, for accepting preferential treatment at this moment, but his treatment and his access to limited equipment should be assessed in exactly the same way as everyone else's. That is common humanity. And I do not know, but I suspect, that Corbyn might have insisted on just such a thing in this situation.

Willing Boris or the virus on?

Unclear. Nicola's language since Sunday appears deliberately ambiguous...

Less if anything

Boris on to the next world

It’s not the cough, that carries you off.
It’s the coffin, they carry you off in!

[Part-timah]

If his carcass is kept alive with one of the top tier ICU machines at the cost of denying a young person that life saving support? Not best pleased. They should be treating him just as they would anyone else.

 

[Teaboy]

Sounds like he's doing fine but its a condition which sometimes gets worse before it gets better. Then again they keep saying he's fine but then elevating the intensity of his treatment, so its hard to believe much of the official story.

 

[Flavour]

They're categorically denying he's got pneumonia now, unlike pob this morning, so perhaps he's not that bad (by which I mean not literally at death's door but still seriously ill)

 

[cupid_stunt]

Rabb is confident he will make a full recovery.

He's fucked.
