love* in the time of plague (and by love* i mean brexit* and other dreary matters of uk politics)

Be fair, this is curtain twitching gone national.

i kinda meant before the press conference

I like the property porn! In the morning I can yell at provincial HMO developers and in the afternoon I can watch retired cops and their wives introduce new white-flight (“crowded”) dog whistles while viewing houses in Herefordshire that really won’t suit the LIVE LAUGH LOVE wall transfer they’re planning for the FAMBLY kitchen,

just saying i think we should be given one day off for classic racist Disney films on a Bank Holiday

Campbell got a c4 slot, this is moving schedules on BBC One. It’s a bit amazing, all things considered.

hope they've explained to him what the first word in "charm offensive" means

“when advisers become the story it’s time to step aside"

I don't think that holds true any more and I'm sure Cummings would dismiss the phrase as old thinking worthy of the Blair era.

Lots of people getting excited about this upcoming presser which will change nothing. Cummings won't lose his job or his influence, the damage to messaging has already been done, and they've got 4 plus years to put CV-19 to bed and grow an economy enough to throw some tax cuts at middle class England.

I'd be interested to know the time between Downing St finding out about the trip and deciding to switch to Stay Alert. Not that it matters beyond extra 'talking politics on the Internet' content.

Cummings on Garden Rescue! Cummings on the red team of Bargain Hunt!

Imagining Cummings as a guest/candidate in all of the property and antique porn shows bbc has on offer and... I'd watch all of them tbph.

The fact that every single politicial correspondent, pundit and talking head on BBC or Sky are absolutely 100% certain he's not going to resign and is going to come out fighting makes me think he's going to resign.

don't say that, I want him to resign but I really don't want to see the Limmy video

"Temporarily stepping back from my duties to focus on my family" is about the best we'll get, probably. Which he won't actually do.

Cummings not Limmy

Limmy not cumming

Bbc putting Tom fucking Harwood on, absolutely get fucked

fucking, fucking Harwood. Hope he was introduced in a style that would suit him

All this "it's the nasty media" is boggling, unbelievable and textbook Trump mode

Don’t see a lot of Evan Davis these days ;-)

Air time for Harwood should be enough reason to abolish the licence fee tbh

I don’t know stet, I just saw his horrible smug little head and immediately hit mute

Lol he’s such a horrible little cunt

All this "it's the nasty media" is boggling, unbelievable and textbook Trump mode

tbf to Trump, the "nasty media" are actually hostile to him, what excuse do the Tories have?

god first bit of news I tune into in months and I have to listen to tom harwood. lovely

yeah just turned on the tv and there’s the wee cunt talking about ‘cancel culture’, get fucked you shithead

ffs this guy Harwood is a moron

My live stream on the Graun is currently just showing a peaceful, zen-like empty garden. 'Garden Rescue' for Cummings still v much on

I like how the Beeb describes Guido as a political website with no further clarification

this harwood lad seems a jolly good fellow, shouldn't have his jizz rag in sight behind him when he's talking to the bbc though!

paedo fawkes morelike

Lol they’re going to him for reaction afterwards, fucking joke

Jesus these cunts are worse than useless, get him on, somebody custard pie the cunt and then I can go back to playing video games

Not heard any mention of the code of conduct for SPADs which all this apparently contravenes

Yep, Guardian live feed is pure 'relaxing garden sounds ASMR'.

boris rocking some weller hair there

don't even know what this lad has done but would be good to see him self-immolate regardless

he really is gonna make us wait for 90 minutes isn’t he

The Grace Jones of disaster capitalism

24 hour news is a curse, this is dismal

Twitter person just called Harwood ‘BNOC Powell’.

Fucks sake bring back Harwood, I can’t listen to this woman monologuing and giving a sympathetic view much longer

Was May this late? I can't remember last decade

Sky has Adam Boulton harrumphing away.

vicki young stfu challenge

May was always half an hour late

lol wtf at this bbc framing

They've really convinced themselves that this is The Remain Media trying to get Cummings because of Brexit.

They're delusional.
