New Briefing Room

[gulliver1]

Don't forget to tune in tonight to watch Boris address the Nation from his new ,
£2.6 million vanity studio , no doubt sitting on his £145,00 sofa all supplied and payed for by the Tax Payer of course. Wonder which one of his chums had the contact to build it.?

[Ellipsis]

Boris enjoys briefing and de-briefing ...

[mushroom25]

if there's a briefing today, it doesn't appear to be scheduled for any mainstream channel - Yokohama Docks Community Cablevision, maybe?

[emmie]

there is no briefing from Downing street tonight as far as my tv schedule goes.

[emmie]

perhaps it will feature on the main news.

[Peter Pedant]

perhaps its so brief that you cant see it ....

anyway he had to spend it on something

[Peter Pedant]

the briefing - - not his briefs - tiddly widdly - oh no

[gulliver1]

10.04, I know he loves Briefs .

[emmie]

He is doing a briefing today at 5pm, mentioned in the Guardians on going rolling coverage section...politics live in the guardian.

Less than £160,000/year for PM of the UK and all the hassle, controversy that goes with it, would not be compensated by a miserable million pound flat and a fancy sofa.
Appalling pay for a PM of any Political persuasion.
Me? I would need at least £500,000/ year to take on the job.

[emmie]

i only looked at my tv schedule, couldn't find any trace of it, but if its on at 5 i will be having dinner, but might watch to see how the easing of lockdown will progress.

[emmie]

sqad, i got thoroughly kicked when i suggested the PM, Mp's are seriously underpaid.

er I dont think they do it for the money Sqaddie.....BUT
you havent counted the £65 m that tory boy Cameron was gonna make from that failed venture that has today gone totws up

and Mrs T wasnt short of a bob or two, for a grocers daughter !

[ummmm]

I agree with Sqad.

[Sqad]

Gareth Bale, Tottenham Hotspur footballer gets the yearly salary of our PM every week.

[emmie]

i have looked at three tv mags, schedules, none show a BBC briefing. but perhaps they are doing this on the hop, so no one has had time to update their data. I might well watch

[emmie]

Mrs T husband was an astute businessman, and was worth millions.

[Peter Pedant]

getting kicked on AB ?
it is like being mauled by a dead sheep isnt it

you cant maul anything if you are limited to three word sentences of which one is a grnt ....
