Is Johnson Ok?

[Atheist]

He seemed to me to have completely lost the plot. I heard he's had a cold all week. Hope he hasn't got long Covid.

“ ich, no other PM has had to deal with Brexit and Covid as well as having Covid himself.”

I think that’s what’s known as a non sequitur :-)
I was just pointing out that the current PM is not unique in the amount of criticism he gets. Far from it.

[Gromit]

Wouldn’t be surprised if he has a heart attack.

I really think Boris is OK. Bit of a bumbler, father of a young family. So what if his job isn't always done to perfection (whose is!)?

[fiveleaves]

I think that Boris is having some kind of breakdown, but absolutely wrong with Peppa Pig. About time Peppa got the political respect she deserved

[Peter Pedant]

Breakdowns and sick prime ministers are by no means rare
Churchill 1955 - gaga
Eden 1956- botched gallbladder
Chamberlain 1940 Ca colon
Lloyd George - satyriasis
castlereagh 1822 - depression and suicide

[Peter Pedant]

oh pitt the younger - drank himself to death

It occurs to me that he doesn't have the attention span for long Covid.

[jno]

was Churchill gaga or was it the result of the stroke that everyone covered up?

[naomi24]

Yes, Eton, Oxford, and among other things a successful career in journalism and politics. He’s a right thicko!

[AuntPG]

Who has said he is thick? Being unsuitable for a job does not necessarily mean one is thick.

[douglas9401]

Well he ain't thin.

[jno]

So what if his job isn't always done to perfection

so Britain has the fourth-highest number of Covid deaths in the world? With a death rate in the top 30, up there between Tunisia and Chile?

Other countries make a point of electing leaders who are rather closer to perfection, and fewer of their citizens die.

[jno]

a successful career in journalism

this would be the man sacked by The Times for making things up?

[naomi24]

Coming from someone who thinks JRM a suitable candidate, that’s really funny, APG. :o)

[naomi24]

His CV doesn’t read too badly, JNO.

[AuntPG]

is that, as usual, just a cheap jibe Naomi? or is there a point to your comment? -care to explain? No, I didn't think do.

[davebro]

jno - if you think Tunisia & Chile are recording their Covid cases correctly then I hope you'll be glad when you see Father Christmas!

[Peter Pedant]

// was Churchill gaga or was it the result of the stroke that everyone covered up?//
Both

during his second term he used to play with a duckie in the bath
and yes Clem covered that one up

[pat2604]

Jno, There are many countries that don't record their Covid numbers correctly, obviously including deaths. I feel absolutely sure of it!!

[naomi24]

APG, not at all. Rather an astute observation.
