Boris Visiting Scotland

[maggiebee]

Why on earth, in the middle of a pandemic, is Boris even contemplating visiting Scotland tomorrow. Does he not follow his own rules?

He was never going to visit NS. Read the post ,!!!

[Neveracrossword]

The link is very informative...

[Mamyalynne]

It is.

Bobbi
NICOLA Sturgeon has urged Boris Johnson to lead by example, and cancel tomorrow’s trip to Scotland.

[anneasquith]

Danny, have you evidence of your post re the royals ?

[gness]

Bobbi. Once again you posted without making yourself aware. She hasn't asked him to cancel a planned visit with her. She never wanted that as you wrongly suggested in your first post.

Perhaps read why he is going?

She, quite rightly, wants his trip to Scotland cancelled.

Well you can't really blame Nicola for not wanting to meet Boris, can you. just saying.

[Bobbisox1]

I'll leave you to get on with it then everyone will calm down because I didn't open the link :0)))

[gness]

Says the woman who tells us she likes informed discussion.

[anneasquith]

Maybe in the future you should open the link Bobbie, before posting .

[sunny-dave]

Sigh.

Nicola didn't invite Boris

Nicola doesn't think it appropriate that he's gadding around Scotland during a critical phase of the pandemic.

I'm at a complete loss as to how anyone can't actually understand that from reading the link in the OP .

If you don't read the link then how can you make any comment worth anyone's time to read it?

But ... perhaps I'm assuming too much - perhaps a little more reading and a bit less firing from the hip is needed?

[royfromaus]

The Nats in full flow I see.

[anneasquith]

Would this even be news if BJ were visiting Wales or Northern Ireland ?

[Mamyalynne]

To me Anne, it would also be deemed unnecessary, there is all the technology in place to communicate,whether it's to offer support and boost morale or discuss important matters.

[royfromaus]

I could almost take the Scottish hypocrites (and the fake Scot) on this thread seriously if they had made an appearance on the Glasgow Celtic holiday thread but no....that was fine and Nicola agreed the jolly boys outing was fine.

Unbelievable Jeff!

[MartinMillar]

Fake Scot?

[gness]

I've not heard Fake Scot, Martin, since the Corby Highland Games and a chap was wearing boxers under his kilt.

Starmer has been out and about to all sorts of places obviously trying to get popularity. None of the visits essential. He is now on his third period of self isolation.

royfromaus I think maybe you should actually read what the First Minister said about Glasgow Celtic's "jolly". The whole Scottish nation are not members of AB so you have no idea of the backlash that their "holiday" caused up here. Totally unacceptable to the majority.
