You are either the Prime Minister, or you aren’t. As there is no automatic succession the cabinet would need to chose the next PM from among themselves. In that case they'll probably choose someone who has no chance of winning the leadership election. So i t could be Priti Patel ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

YoungWillz 21,029 Posted April 6, 2020 There is no truth to the rumour that Boris' condition deteriorated just after he heard of Honor Blackman's death, when he was alleged to have shouted in in a delirious moment "One more Pussy in heaven!" 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Windsor 2,233 Posted April 6, 2020 I find the outpouring of support for him insufferable. It’s going to be a bit embarrassing for some folk now if he doesn’t die... 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheKeysOfMarinus 390 Posted April 7, 2020 People on Twitter want to do a clap for Boris tomorrow night just like the twee-but-well-meaning claps for the NHS. Gotta be joking. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CoffinLodger 1,248 Posted April 7, 2020 It is slightly ominous that there hasn't been an official statement about his condition so far today I must admit.Even the govt doesn't seem to have a clue how he is.

It’s going to be a bit embarrassing for some folk now if he doesn’t die... I remember reading years ago that Australian soap actors were keen on having their characters spend a few episodes in a hospital bed, comatose at death’s door. Apparently there was nothing like it for boosting your popularity. In the same spirit, if Boris gets back to his old self he’ll be a national hero. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have a feeling that Gove is just repeating the official line given by Downing St last night. Turns out Gove is stuck at home self isolating himself so it's unlikely he would know much. I guess Dominic Raab will be the first to know any major news. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
