So what happened to 350 million a week from brexit being put into the NHS??

[Serene]

Bojo had his coach touring the country. lettered up, telling everyone to vote Brexit, and that he would then reward the Country for voting Brexit by putting the £350 million a week it saved into the NHS every week. What has happened to this?? And now he is raising income tax which he promised in the manifesto as being one of the things that he wont do!

Surely noone thought the Tories wouldn't keep their promises, did they?

Oh not this weak shit again.

Bojo? Referring to the unspeakable Johnson with an affectionate diminutive is a sign of a wanker's wanker

Indeed not, but merely posted to keep the reminder in peoples minds.

Thanks for the reminder. I’m definitely not voting Conservative again.

Tories got to Tory.

 

[Serene]

The Tories are probably looking into a way to blame the Lib Dems for it. They need to check Bojos bank account as a lot of it may have accidentally gone in there. Ive seen him out on the market early doors spending money like mad.

The only thing I'm tempted to input here is the point that the numbers they were claiming on the side of the red bus/coach could have been expressed as £18.2bn per year.

I can see why, in the context of the debate about taxing workers for £10-12bn per year for the NHS/Social care, they might not welcome any more consideration of the 2016 Leave claim.

I noticed yesterday, whilst being interviewed, a couple of Tory MPs mentioned insurance when the subject of dementia cropped up. So we know what's on the cards sooner rather than later.

It was a lie. It was always a lie.

Which would also have been wrong. The total annual contribution, net of the rebate, was never that high. It peaked in 2013 at £16,039m.

If you include public sector receipts you get the real net contribution which averaged £4,795m over the 47 year period of contributing to the EU budget and peaked at £11,655m in 2015.

But, but it was on a BUS!

Bus timetables have always been a great work of fiction round here - why should anything else be different?

The first bus app is on the fritz round these parts, you sort have to wait by a bus stop and hope for one to turn up.

Yes I know. I knew when they said it. However, it needs to be kept in peoples minds again.

Not anyone on urban. If you mean the general public there's better channels than urban to raise awareness.

I think it's called a fib.

Bojo? Referring to the unspeakable Johnson with an affectionate diminutive is a sign of a wanker's wanker

I'd always been inclined to think the same but a bloke in a pub told me (am I on the wrong thread?!) that Johnson doesn't like being called, 'BoJo', because he was often called it at Eton and that it was far from affectionate.

I've never known if this is true or not and consequently have been confused as to whether the use of 'BoJo' is a good thing or a bad thing. As it's never been proven to me I think I still agree with your analysis. But if I knew for sure that it irks him I'd encourage everyone to use the term as often as possible.

Why don't you write to Carrie Johnson and ask? She didn't get where she is today by not answering letters

She didn't go to Eton so she wouldn't know. Other than what Johnson might have told her. And he's not trustworthy.

Also, have you seen the price of postage stamps these days?!

It flew over your head

Have you not seen the fall and rise of Reginald Perrin?

Yeah, flew right over my head.

I do vaguely remember the programme from my childhood but not properly. Am intrigued now though.

I like to refer to him as BoJo, even though it's disrespectful to clowns. If it is seen as an affectionate nickname then I take comfort that using it in a derogatory manner undermines the affection others show him and could irritate and annoy him. It's so easy for childish affection to become a piss take when adopted by enemies. Of course cunt is always more apt. Or shitcunt in a formal setting.

 

[bemused]

Matt Hancock's landlord got it all.

'that cunt johnson' avoids any risk of confusion about which cunt you are talking about, though
