Going by Government advice of what to do if feeling unwell and the waiting list for tests, the whole Country will be isolating themselves by Xmas.

Not a surprise. Money buys you privilege even in a pandemic.

Yet the Govt track and Trace scheme day today they are struggling to meet demand as their is insufficient laboratory capacity for those going for tests.

No wonder if you can buy your way to the front of the queue.

‘Misspoke’ - surely a Freudian slip as poking misses seems to be his favourite pastime.

More rumours that he is struggling with his personal finances as he is now paying 4 lots of maintenance and talk of Westminster is he is drinking heavily.

Even the express now has an article saying he is out as soon as brexit is done.

That was REALLY bad......his body language tells you everything you need to know....he looks down & to the left every chance he gets - always a sign of someone being evasive and/or dishonest. Dreadful. (rolf)

Whilst it is indeed indicative of his integrity, that was a good few years (and a great many subsequent "dalliances with the truth" ) ago.
Since then he has gone on to successfully gain the position of leader of the conservative party & won the majority in a general election.
Then again, integrity does not really appear to play an integral part in viability of political leadership these days, does it.?

Oh yes...and of course integrity should be on every politician's C.V.
It just seems that you get a good one - replaced by a bad one - replaced by a good one, etc.
And that's without regard to whatever party they're with. They cover the whole spectrum.

Once a lying cheating bastard, always a lying cheating bastard.

According to the BBC he is now ringing round European leaders pleading with them to agree a trade deal.

He's a fraud and a charlatan but he fooled a lot of people with his comedic bumbling posh boy act.
