Remember to jump onto google to check out 'the farm', peeps.

So, the dead cat wasn't so much the Lion King as the Essex Lion.

The BBC is basically running a Tory party political broadcast for the Tory Twitter party.

Not so much a car crash as a multi car pike up on the M1.

Millions of parents of small children got it wrong, basically.

Millions of bad parents.

I liked the bit at the end when the camera slowly zoomed out, and he shuffled his papers and rearranged the desk like he'd just read the six o'clock news

... and then started coughing.

They fucking are!

 

[Lord Camomile]

oh noez, teh baby! - no babysitters!

Now, now, he did say that his 17-year-old niece 270 miles away had already offered, so why would he think to look anywhere else?

Cummings instinctively did what every father would do in driving 30 miles in a car with his wife and kid to see if he could see properly to drive

Also there were loads of contradictions there eg he started by saying bj asked him to give the press conference and then saying he'd had input into the decision. And there were the chats he had with bj which they couldn't remember in which loads of important things were discussed. Does this sound like a way to run a government, making decisions no one recalls?

Never really watch Sky News but they were hilarious

Miles better than the beeb. At least you know they're Tories.

You're allowed to exercise judgement, according to the rules.

I thought before that he had said that they had checked available avenues.

I can understand the instinct to leg it somewhere safe - at that point they believed it wasn't affecting younger people, and also it felt a lot more threatening at that time due to lack of knowledge.

Boris and some of the Government are going to regret throwing that scientist to the wolves for nipping out for a shag.

Right so just to clarify, if you have small children, feel free to interpret the law however you like.

I'll be right back, just gonna nick my neighbour's car

 

[Mogden]

This has just been highlighted to me. There is a outline. Can't unsee it now.

 

[Wilf]

Maybe when you've had a couple of drinks and don't know whether you can drive or not, best thing is to have a little hour long return journey to see how things are going?

Brooker's review of the year is going to have something good on this.

That's what Dom says not me, and I don't believe for a second it actually says that.

I'm taking mine for a holiday on Dom's dad's farm.

I never knew there were so many ways to make yourself look like a cunt.

And AFAIK neither he nor the Scottish doctor (allegedly) had coronavirus.

So, when for the resignation? I'm going to stick a flag in Wednesday.

Professor did not nip out for a shag, she came to his flat. So lockdown was still broken that way.
