How do you think Boris has handled it so far ? June edition

[clapham_gull]

He is clearly not well and it's actually quite painful to watch.

 

[MJsGhost]

The main recent "highlight" I suppose has been the Cummings affair, so if you think he handled that well, you might revise your mark up, and if you think he handled it poorly then revise your mark down.

If that’s going to work we’re going to need a few more options at the bottom of the list.

I keep saying and keep getting ridiculed, Johnson will resign as PM before this mess is over citing health reasons.
He and Cummings are dead men walking!

The thing that I've just never got about him was why he upped sticks in 2016 just because Gove turned on him, but that always raised suspicion that he hasn't got the stomach for anything. Churchill, my arse.
The other thing to note about that is that Cummings was on an extended break at that point after his Brexit exertions, so Johnson wasn't being told what to do and his absence opened things up for the ambitious yet repulsive Gove.

Dispatches absolutely damning so far.

Wouldn't have got enough votes I seem to recall, Gove supporters votes would have gone to him.

At this point in time 5 people have voted either Good, Very Good or Superb. I would be very interested to hear their reasoning for these conclusions.

I can’t see the names that have voted as to how fantastic Boris/the government are, but I could have a good stab at the names of 2 of the 5...

Having the real PPF on ignore and the parody one not makes it a lot easier to spot the parody. Just a little advice for people.

I quite enjoy the double take of is that REALLY Pretty pink fairy (the moron) or Pretty Pink Fairy (the parody). There are times when the posts are actually interchangeable

I can’t see the names that have voted as to how fantastic Boris/the government are, but I could have a good stab at the names of 2 of the 5...

Once you include their other accounts that's 4, if not all 5 of the 5

Is it possible you could translate this into English please?

I have gone from superb to very poor

The parody is more restrained.

Sure.

Leaving the legitimate "Pretty pink fairy" account added to the ignore list on North Stand Chat (the Brighton & Hove Albion based internet forum) while having the similarly titled account set up as a false one designed to imitate the preceding not being added to said list is an excellent way of being able to identify which account is the real one, posting all kinds of nonsense they presumably believe, and the one which is a fake, which also posts all kinds of nonsense they probably don't believe but just post for a laugh. I offer this as sage counsel to anyone who may be struggling to identify the differences between the two when posts appear.

 

[Chicken Run]

Perfect and in simpler terms the fake one signs off DR, the real one signs off DF

 

[Harry Wilson's tackle]

Worst PM ever?

Seems to go down a level each time

He's not yet reached the depths of Cameron. If he succeeds in enacting Cameron's folly (Brexit) then he'll be right up there with Neville Chamberlain.

Incidentally, were Chamberlain's cheerleaders (the Daily Mail and its readers) still backing the man with the piece of paper in his hand after Hitler had invaded Poland? I am pretty sure the usual cretins will still be backing Boris and Brexit even if we end up with a hard border and mass unemployment. Four very keen followers filling out the present poll. Same four as last time? Can't be arsed to check, fankly .

I find this quite sad. We want our leaders to do well, particularly in a crisis. As a country we need to know the people in charge have the best interests of our people at heart. We rely on good decisions to protect us. We want to look around and think we handled this better than whoever. There is so little that has been done well - as a result that which has been done well really stands out. And so much of it has been done without having the belief in the decision making to show us the supporting evidence for that decision. And so little ability or willingness to accept and counter challenge.

A positive for me though has been how people have, despite the above, settled into routines to protect themselves and each other.

Cheers US.
