Are you watching?

Or are you sick of him?

[LeatherTrumpet]

Watched Nicola so no interest

[Morgan.]

Not watching, I’ll read one of the online recaps when it’s finished.

"a stitch in time saves nine"

Cone head Boris

[Oliver_W]

I saw it because I thought Bake Off was on at 8. Blehh he just washes over me these days.

Though that weatherman looks sooo weird, like an over-realistic puppet.

[Dogeatdog]

He likes to do that fist thing doesn’t he?

Yeah he's very dramatic.

[joeysteele]

He presents things even serious as if they're a game.
He's totally negatively unbelievable.

Nicola Sturgeon in her address was compassionate, sincere and inspiring.

What a contrast of leadership.
She's by miles a better leader.

[Kizzy]

He has no clue how to be a statesman, all he knows is how to deliver monologues like he's performing an after dinner speech at a masonic lodge!

I'm pretty sure it IS a game to him. There's a reason there are rumblings about him stepping down... He became PM, he's "completed the game" now, he doesn't want to have to hang around and do actual work. His plan was to become PM, "get Brexit done" and then retire with that as his legacy. But then Covid came along and ruined his plans so now he's fumbling about in the dark with no clue where to go next.

No you are stuck with him.

[bitontheslide]

People are just pouring out their frustrations and it's perfectly understandable. Plenty people can't stand Nicola either

[Ammi]

...I don’t think that we can dismiss bad governments, though...bad is bad, no matter what times we are living in and Boris most definitely defines bad for so many...of course people are frustrated, losing loved ones can be a very frustrating thing and the lives that some of ‘his’ people are living every day of his bungling ineptitude...the world that we’re living in right now is far too scary and worrying to be in the hands of such a career politician...

[bitontheslide]

We can all put the country to right from the comfort of our armchairs, easiest thing in the world. I'm not defending Boris and the cabinet, it is full of incompetents, they have made bad decisions (from my perspective) but they are broadly doing the right things.

[Ammi]

...we can’t put the country right though, bots...I mean that would never be suggested in any way, that we/the general public could...whether it be this or any other country../...world crises...’we’ vote in our leaders to inspire guidance etc...and they put themselves forward for that inspired guidance as well...I mean, I just don’t ever get that ‘sitting in our armchairs’ thing as any perspective at all because it’s really not...we could lay criticism at a ‘bad surgeon’ because they’re indeed a bad surgeon...but are we suggesting that we ourselves, with no surgical knowledge etc, would be able to perform a surgery to a higher standard.../...that mindset would make no sense at all to me to have any bearing...for our very lives in many things, we need a leader/government who is able to lead and govern...they haven’t made bad decisions imo, Boris and his chosen crew...they’ve made decisions that have sacrificed lives and that’s way beyond what ‘bad’ could ever imagine...

...we never, ever sit in our armchairs when the voting vibe happens and this government has let so many people down who found their feet and their vote for them...
