He's well known for being on holiday when crucial things are happening to the country. And when he's not holidaying, he's partying. And when he's not holidaying or partying, he's happy to see his citizens die. Yeah, super choice for the Tory future. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TQR 14,398 Posted June 19 You know the Tories are fucked for good when most of their people think their future lies with past fuckup leaders like Cameron, Johnson and Truss. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

On another - serious - note, does anyone know if there's evidence of the model buses he claims he made?

Well, the sense behind it was to create something online that'd divert people away from finding a photo of him in front of a bus claiming Brexit would gift the NHS £358 million a week. Pretty typical of his work ethic that he'd put the work in to waffle and create a diversion but wouldn't produce the goods. Or am I too cynical Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I read a range of papers, the last paper bought over the counter was prompted by the recent sighting of the ghost of Lemmy riding a horse and eating pizza, a story that - for inexplicable reasons - was ignored by The Guardian The Bojo thing I figured out on my own. I'm talking about something similar this week, specifically the way the estate of Elvis now has an Elvis Sightings section on its website, the point being the sightings in question are people randomly spotting Elvis in the media. A win/win, then, they get dedicated fans alerting them to uses of the King's image the estate can then chase for money and they set up online action that marginalises the other type of "sighting" of either Spirit Elvis risen in some paranormal way or the "real" Elvis who faked his death and would now be a sprightly 89!

Toast 16,140 Posted September 27 HG Tudor thinks this is Boris embellishing facts because he has a book to sell. Quote There was clearly a chat that took place between the two, but I think Boris was despatched - and with his own view being similar - to say to Harry, "Look, you're going. You need to really understand what that means so you're labouring under no illusion that you're now on the outside, pal. You need to understand that you're not going to get taxpayer support with regard to your security. You're not going to get all the bells & whistles that you once did. I need to ensure that you understand all of this." I don't believe that Boris was despatched to try and persuade him to stay. I believe that Boris and the Royal Family realised that that was pointless. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
