Yes.

edit... but why use him. Would have thought someone more 'expendable' would have more likely been the person to use. Also higher profile, a lot of people still didn't know who this guy was until a week ago.

Yes. FP has repeatedly said it's to induce the public in to ignoring lock down to implement herd immunity through the back door.

also implement "the app" which would give them the kind of data they could only dream about.

It's pritty pathetic really, we have all this time to learn new skills, spend with family (within the same households, of course), get stuff done around the house etc, yet they would rather argue with strangers on the internet.

Grendel said:

1 that’s not every conservative
2 they are not all lies

Please explain point two.

So, unless EVERYTHING they say is a lie, they haven't told lies? Is that what you're arguing?

Nah too high profile and too damaging.

I think we've found a new nickname for Patel - Priti Pathetic.

Not sure how I can have fallen for it when I am saying it could be a tactic, but anyway- no matter what the origins of the sorry affair, it is disgusting & disrespectful, and yet more lies and deceit. Doesn't matter why they did it, they did do it- or are we now saying that anytime anyone does something thats blatantly not right we should excuse on the basis of "its ok, it was just a cunning scheme".

Anyway, I can see why they'd do it alright, but I still don't see why they'd use him and why they'd do it the way they did it.

Who won the popular vote in the states?

Click to expand...

Irrelevant. Not going to waste time in states they've got no chance of overturning. Just concentrate on those few important swing states and with the ridiculous electoral college system it makes all the difference.

Not that I'm taking anything from the fact Clinton was an awful choice and she royally screwed herself as well going around the country like she was on a victory lap.

FP has for the past fortnight!

Ah.

Hancock definitely hasn't been sent to do the media rounds 'launching' a track and trace system that isn't ready that staff weren't told out until last night and can't logon to as a distraction from Cummings.

The truth is it's probably a lot like New Coke. Not that stupid, not that clever

Why are you offended? Just saying there's better things to do then whinge about cummings for the 5th straight day.

Not like working out at the gym but they're decent enough.
I'm not a body builder or anything and I've just finished my work out but I'm not feeling the same pain I would after using free weights/machines. Though it wouldn't surprise me if I'm doing it wrong!

For £20 plus quid I'd say they're worth a go.

I'm not offended. Put exclamation marks at the end of both sentences to indicate I was half joking but definitely not offended.

Get a load of this simp!!

The DC saga will rumble on and will continue to damage the PM but the tracing system not being fully operational until the end of June is a scandal that should rightly be questioned today at the briefings

Sent from my SM-G975F using Tapatalk

Boris on this week - we will have a world class track and trace system by Monday.

Today's news - won't be ready until end of June.

Fucking useless shower of bastards.

I don’t think it was premeditated just once it was out they can use it as a diversion and make the best of it.

They do it all the time. Like I said earlier, with constant incompetence and scandal there is always something else to move onto and they’re never really held to account for anything. It’s the same as Trump.

Whilst I wouldn't put myself in that bracket, its a very good point.

I've got back in to the bad habit of wasting way too much time on here, so I'm offski.

See you in the Championship folks. PUSB!

I think that's why Johnson said yesterday that he's been banned from making announcements and deadlines.

He blurts out these stupid promises on the spot when under pressure to deflect away from whatever he's being quizzed overt at the time, and it puts the government in an impossible position. So they've told him to keep his mouth shut.
