Gemmill's mate Sharma is self-isolating waiting for a test result. Rees-Mogg should be forced to do all the contact tracing, the stupid cunt.

Why doesn't anyone ask what the fuck all these travellers are coming to the UK for? There's no excuse for business reasons or tourism. Then why the hell would anyone negotiate an air bridge with one of the worst affected countries?

He's always been a lazy, easily distracted cunt, yet another lifetime trait which seemingly doesn't matter.

He's gearing up for November /January when he'll refuse to leave.

There's no PMQ in the Lords. (Yes I do think it's all about the buffoon shitting himself in front of Starmer).

There's almost an arrogance about it that says they're too "hard" to catch the disease. It reminds me of the moronic religionists who say the only thing stopping them killing other people is the ten commandments or fear of god - how can they not have innate empathy like most of the rest of the human race? I admit to being a bit selfish in not going out as I'm personally shit scared of catching the fucking thing but I at least expect others to care wether I die too.

Interesting that some experimental treatments are based on blood medicine eg Heparin. There's suggestions it's more generally a blood vessel disease than specifically a respiratory one.

My favourite was the one where he took the old man down to the docks and he compared the pampered horses from the trooping of the colour to the ones that worked at the docks that were worked until the day they collapsed and died - "there has to be some hope" was the old man's last desperate cry. Should have been compulsory viewing for every adult before every election in the 80s (and since).

Had the initial stupid thought that if we got to the final I'd be able to get a ticket off a tout before realising there are no tickets. Would be a tragi-comedy to win it with no fucker there. (Yes I do expect to get hammered off Man City).

Even if the app has 100% take-up I have doubts about this entire scheme due do basic incompetence. Of course there were local teams who could do this but they've been swept aside for another fucking Serco led shambles.

Isn't the app being done by a company owned by Cummings' sister?

The BBC should have had its charter revoked for Orgreave - 35 years of shit like this hasn't changed my mind on that. And fuck the "Then we wouldn't have Planet Earth" shite.

Also it won't work for public transport without the app.

There are too many people who have the attitude that you shouldn't criticise the government in times of emergency. This might align with people who support them anyway but it's there. Probably another older voter thing which is strange as they must realise they've been fed to the dogs via the care home thing. I think if Starmer really went for their throats over mistakes made it would annoy at least as many people as would be impressed.

Is the truth still a defence for libel / malicious communication? Would love a jury to be posed the question "Is Michael Gove a lying little cunt and a shithouse?".

I think Gove started to say he'd done a bit of a test drive with his wife after drinking or doing coke then realised that was a tad iffy

So it's just a coincidence that she had a different illness which allowed him to go back to work but it was okay to go to Durham just in case and then when he and the kid did get ill with what was obviously covid-19 that justified the trip but meant he had broken the rules by going back to work on the first afternoon. Right.

Has anyone mentioned he broke the lockdown rules even before leaving for Durham when he went home to check on his wife when she was first ill then went straight back to work?

Exactly - I hope he stays.

In the despair after December's result, there were a few comments that Johnson would unwind as he doesn't like scrutiny - I think that's happening now - it's just a shame that it's under such deadly circumstances and not something "trivial" like brexit.

He also chose Cummings over Javid because the latter wanted his own advisors to hold sway.

He also kept repeating the phrase "to get childcare" which he didn't actually get.

He's stated he didn't go to Barnard Castle, the lass from the mirror is hinting they have proof.

Obviously the virus doesn't know what a calendar is but I've also read the "sick trip" coincided with his mother's birthday.
