The United Kingdom and the Death of Boris Johnson as we know it.
badgerx16 replied to CB Fry's topic in The Lounge
The Boris Johnson Special Protection Squad, ( aka the Metropolitan Police ), have said it won't take longer than a year for them to examine the photographs and other evidence so as to determine whether parties tok place and who was, or was not, present. It took only a few minutes for each of the fixed penalty notices they issued for breaches of the regulations by Joe Public. -

One Lancashire Tory MP stated that her constituents had told her he was a "Wally", and asked Boris' response. He claimed he hadn't heard her comment - everybody watching on TV heard it. Kudos to Teresa May and Ian Blackford. -

Teresa May : "He either didn't read the rules, didn't understand the rules, or ignored the rules". -

"Serious failures of leadership" in the 16 'events' investigated, including at least one in his flat which is specifically identified as not being work related. Within the next few minutes he will stand up in Westminster, acknowledge the findings, apologise profusely, state that lessons will be learned, and then carry on regardless. -
Here's one Newcastle missed out on ; https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/60197741 "Roberto Carlos' brilliant, swerving free-kick for Brazil against France in 1997 is one of the most memorable goals in the history of football. It's no wonder then that a pub team in Shropshire could hardly believe it when they learned the World Cup-winning full-back will play for them in a Sunday league match. The Bull In The Barne won the services of Carlos - now 48 - in a 'dream transfer raffle' on eBay meaning he will appear as a substitute at one of their Shrewsbury & District games in February. "You pay £5 to enter the raffle for a chance to have a pro sign for your team. One of our lads said in a group chat 'let's just give it a go' and we ended up winning it," striker and club secretary Matthew Brown told BBC Radio Shropshire."

I hope these players realise that all they are doing is potentially stabilising the club, and that after next season, assuming they stay up this time, they will be discarded as their "European challenging team" starts to form. If that comes to pass, in 18 months they will all be on the bench or surplus to requirements.

A quote from a paramedic who refuses the vaccine ; "But you can argue that it won't protect them any more whether I have it or not. We all know people who are triple jabbed and they've still got Covid or they've not been jabbed and they haven't got it. "It's not like the vaccine has eradicated Covid like some vaccines have done in the past so I find the argument for the science a bit weak." How does he think the 2 viruses that the WHO list as "eradicated", smallpox and rinderpest ( a disease of cattle ), were eliminated if not by mass vaccination ? Also, he fails to understand the concepts that (1) the vaccine might not prevent infection, but will significantly reduce symptoms and the potential for the host to transmit the virus, and (2) younger, healthier, people may well get infected and become onward vectors whilst remaining asymptomatic.

The timing of this announcement comes across as another Partygate fig leaf.

Boris was banned from taking secret papers out of his office as he could not be trusted not to leave them lying around for anyone visiting his and Carrie's flat to see. Also, the much trumpeted 'new' Levelling Up monies aimed at saving his arse in the Red Wall constituencies, and deflecting from Partygate, are just rebadged finances announced last year. Desperate times. -
Press reports say that he won't go to Newcastle as he wants a 'bigger,' club, others that Lampard has told the Everton board that he wants Alli as his first signing should he agree to take over at Goodison.

Looking through a list of films due for release this year, amongst the sequels, those based on computer games, and the ceaseless avalanche of Marvel and DC stories, there is one over-riding question; Why the f**k is there yet another 'new' version of Batman ?
-
Which begs the question, if there are potentially 'better' replacements for Bednarek, available for less than NUFC might offer for him, and that we have hopefully already scouted, why don't Newcastle go for them instead ?

If Newcastle fans think they will be challenging for the Champions League places in the next 5 seasons they are deluding themselves.

Not ( Technically Bassenthwaite is the only 'lake' in the Lake District, all the other named bodies of water are 'mere's, 'water's, or 'tarn's. )

So all the things he denies doing are in fact deliberate acts of deflection. -

Palestinian Arabs are a semitic people, so Israel's policies against them are anti-semitic. -

Well, he has certainly tried to acheive that one, given the number of marriages, mistresses, and sprogs he has accumulated.
