Boris: Dominic, you’ve been a very naughty boy. What do you think I should do about it.

Demonic: Nothing.

Has Boris actually said anything yet, or is he still hiding & sending out the drones to deal with the awkward questions?

Presumably yes unless it’s about the earth being a spherical body.

I admit I thought that too.

But at the same time they need to work to protect their wives and children so ignoring the rules to ensure they can is not just acceptable but totally necessary and anyone who doesn't clearly doesn't care about their families.

Yeah it shouldn’t be one rule for him and then another for us, doubt he’s done it lots of times though he’s admitted to doing it once
Click to expand...

I'm of the opposite opinion. I reckon he's done it that often he'd almost be considered to be commuting. It'll be another one of those "I only did it once.......oh yes, I forgot I actually went twice.....did I say twice. I misspoke I meant three times...sorry four"

He thinks rules apply to others, not him.

Right fuck the Cummins issue for one minute.


Im willing to put my neck on the line following all the scientific articles I've been reading recently


Coronas on the wane. Following the exact path of SARS in mutating a lot weaker and dying out. This so called second wave that the twitterati keep banging on about hasnt taken place anywhere. Basing that on a flu virus anyway, totally different animal to a coronavirus.



Can see us almost back to normal come end of June

Dr Sikora (who admittedly is accused of being a bit too glass half full) has floated the same theory, countries are apparently surprised that with lockdowns being eased there hasn't been a surge in cases and there's a suggestion that it'll start to peter out. Be lovely if it's true

Whats the theory there? How does the virus die out, does the virus as it is now not continue to spread, it has to mutate?

Very limited knowledge i must admit, but coronaviruses ij general mutate a hell of a lot, such as the common cold. Hence the difficulty in the potential of a vaccine. They tend to mutate to stay alive, to infect. If a coronavirus kills a lot of its hosts, there wont be enough hosts and it will die out. So in the main they tend to mutate and mutate and mutate until becoming a lot weaker, thus being able to survive, and pass around, but not cause the lethality it did previously

Remember Sundays are dead days though. Won't be until Tuesday at earliest for true figures to be out.

I know but look at the trends each Sunday and Monday..... I know they will be low because of the lag but it’s all about the weekly trend

There isn’t any lag in cases reported

This helps add weight to my point. Remember the whole 'oooo VE day celebrations will cause a massive spike and cause a second wave!!!'

Wel VE day was 16 days ago. Cases still plummeting. Telling you, this horrible little shit is dying out.


The second wave was what we've just had. Been here for months

Pointless checking Sundays at all really. Monday will by definition be lower because it's bank holiday. If Wednesday, Thursday and Friday are lower, then that's more optimistic

Johnson has completely bottled it. Hypocritical enough that Cummings hasn't been pushed out when compared to what others have been forced to resign for but to get up there and actively defend him is, IMO, a complete disgrace and a huge slap in the face to those that have stuck to the rules.

There are people who have loved ones die alone and not been able to attend funerals as they stuck to the rules to now have Johnson essentially stick two fingers up at them.

Tbf even Dom will be criticising Johnson for this, so it won't help his standing.

Optimistic about cases going down though, hopefully by the end of the week we’ll be under 2k

he's just lost the Tory party a massive amount of goodwill which I should be happy about but unfortunately I think people will die because of this because lock down will be all but over now.
