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

Writing a letter to the 1922 he is disgusted

i said what i said and i stand by it xp

told you, serial evader. whatever it takes.

didnt want it enough where was pogba

Reading between the lines of that IDS quote and, given that they've lied about his condition all the way along, I reckon Bozzer's a goner.

hey hopefully he’s in the best hands

stop, stop, it's the hope that kills you

Oh shit, ‘The Queen is being kept informed of BJ’s condition.’

If he dies do we do another clap for the NHS?

The sound of one hand clapping.

Boris Johnson Released From Hospital After Defunding It, Shutting It Down https://t.co/Y5GPgGurNS pic.twitter.com/aeNhTEKyDN

Some context as UK PM Boris Johnson is admitted to intensive care:

A new report from @ICNARC found that of 690 UK covid patients admitted to ICU with a reported final outcome, 50% died and 50% lived https://t.co/W9Rg0z68Jf pic.twitter.com/kRSXCwZmz2

following in Churchill's footsteps by dying

So how likely is it that he was infected by Nadine Dorries?

How many of the 690 were only admitted as a precaution tho statsboy

insisting on shaking the hands of coronavirus patients a few weeks ago probably didn’t help tbf

Many with #COVID19 are felled by fatigue/temperature and use isolation to sleep+recover.
Boris has risked his health & worked every day on our behalf to lead the battle against this vile virus
Lets do our bit for him and @carriesymonds now. Send them our love #getwellsoonboris

Dorries is actually angry at the virus itself

The Guilties Of Guilty Lane

(xxp) He was just following the advice of his own government at the time - go out and infect yourself for Britain.

Imagine how angry she’d be at someone who’d potentially passed it to him

A hero, sacrificing himself and 249,999 others for the economy.

Dorries is actually angry at the virus itself

Raab was going all Churchillian (surprise surprise) earlier constantly talking about 'defeating' the virus - put 'em up, Rona, let's you and me rassle.

For real, though, I am not sure who on the front bench would be preferable as PM, though I’m also not sure how many would have been cracked enough to go for the herd immunity play.

everyone on the front bench is a swivel-eyed maniac iirc

Can we just have the bench?

Churchill almost died in office too, is this what they mean by Churchillian

I don’t want to spook Johnson, but Dermot Murnaghan is reading the news on Sky News tonight.

Ideally they’d have someone with a military background to coordinate the effort, someone with foreign affairs experience to negotiate the choppy global waters, someone whose views on community Conservatism fit with the new policy landscape. It’s Tugendhat time.

Quite the development

TUGMENTUM IS BACK BABY

Lol Mara Wilson is retweeting Simon Hedges and talking about the Lib Dems, Mara post on ilx

okay fine i am mara wilson, ama about mrs doubtfire

Txt from upstairs neighbor saying she interrupted drug dealers in our porch yesterday and now I can hear people talking out there again tonight. Just generally jumpy at street noises when there aren't meant to be any.

Slight temp and sinus pain this afternoon / evening.

Also posting on wrong thread, is that a symptom?

This is like going to bed before Christmas as a kid.

yeah i need to tune out, just read a book or something

Hold tight boris, trump's got your back on this

And I’ve asked two of the leading companies – these are brilliant companies. Ebola, Aids, they’ve come with the solutions and just have done incredible jobs – and I’ve asked them to contact London immediately

Morning.

I love working as a doctor and secretly whispering verses of the Quran into Boris Johnson's ear, secretly converting him to Islam. My boss can't do anything to stop me because he is quarantined and also because he's afraid of being called racist

Gove also revealed that, like Dominic Raab, he has not spoken to Johnson since he was taken to hospital in Sunday.

Even stranger than that:

I’ve been talking to members of the prime minister’s team but not to the prime minister himself. The prime minister has a team around him who ensure that the work of government goes on.

If Gove and Raab aren't part of that team, who is?

the bilderberg group and the reverse vampires

It’s Cummings communicating over 5G.

Former adviser to the PM Will Walden offers optimism about his condition:

“His zest for life shines through, he’s a very strong guy, he’s immensely fit... so if anyone is in a good position mentally and physically to fight off this disease then he’s that guy”. @BBCr4today

BoJo's infamous zest for life pulling him through
