Agree. The people in this thread shitposting and hoping he dies can fuck off. I despise the Tories but I don't wish death on him or anyone else. Especially from this.
C'mon Boris, David Lammy's appointment was a shock to us all but no need to go off the deep end, lad.
May not like the guy very much but don't wish this on him. Hope he pulls through.

Isn't this the part where he gets revived as Galvatron, whilst Michael Gove crowns himself the new leader of the Conservative Party?
The fact that he was hospitalized at all is a bad omen.
This is not just a precaution. He's in the ICU because he is having trouble breathing. That does not bode well for his chances of beating this.
I hope he pulls through and this gives him a more empathetic view toward others suffering from the virus.
If you're going to indulge in the unlikliest of fantasies, why not go full hog and hope the government appropriates and redistributes his wealth, that he has his name tarnished by society, etc, so he doesn't get a comfortable retirement as his inevitable reward at the end of this for making the world objectively worse.
If he changes his tune, then fine. But I'm cynical about people like Boris Jonson. Some people show an amazing ability to not learn from experience. Heck, if he's a sociopath then he probably cant.
Between the concerned shrug and the two links showing how much of a twat he is, I think people get it.Just gonna leave this here.
Boris Johnson called gay men 'tank-topped bumboys' and black people 'piccaninnies' with 'watermelon smiles'
UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson has a long record of making offensive comments about women, ethnic minorities and gay people.www.businessinsider.com
Some of you should be ashamed of yourselves. You know who you are. I hope he makes a full recovery.
Unofficially it is probably the Brazilian president. A head of state of a major country anyway.
I think Angela Merkel of Germany tested positive long before Johnson....
User banned (2 weeks): conspiracy theorising
Not trying to be be alarmist, but if Boris dies and the bioweapon theory becomes prominent, do fools like Trump hold China culpable?
I assume - and please correct me if I am wrong - he is being treated with extra caution because he is the PM and being put under intensive care much earlier than the average person would be.
No, she didn't. She just went into quarantine but tested negative.

I hate the guy as much as the next person but he's still a human. I don't need you're articles; I live here mate and I'm well aware he's an utter piece of shit, he's said and done a lot of terrible things and I do not align with him in the slightest, especially politically etc but I wouldn't wish anyone dead.
The British government has been lying to the public for weeks now and the ensuing fallout is gonna be harrowing.
All the money and private healthcare in the world can't stop this from taking you if it takes you.
Maybe people, especially the rich, elite, business owners and politicians should have taken things more seriously before they did.
Can't hide behind your money or status when we're talking a virus that doesn't discriminate with no cure.

I know Boris is arrogant as all hell (I mean he's not as bad as Trump, but that's a DAMN high bar) but even he wouldn't come out of this screaming to the Beeb and the DM about how this isn't a big deal. If anything this might actually make him turn around on the NHS!
Or more likely solidify his argument against it ("I wouldn't have gone into the ICU if I had better quality private insurance!!!")
Her doctor was tested positive - she went into quarantine for two weeks and tested 3 times negative since then.
I agree, normalizing his shitbaggery is bad and sets a bad precedent for the future of Britain's politics, not that fascism/colonialism wasn't normalized there for centuries before this. Trying to shape this as a matter of humanity in that sense wipes away the power dynamics and the harm that fuckers like him have perpetuated.
Oh huh
I wonder how this plays out in terms of "political capital" with Trump? They both were invested in downplaying COVID-19, and saying "It's nothing." Now Trump's lost his closest Western Ally to the thing that's "not even worse than the flu."
Is his only option at this point to say "Johnson was weak, I don't know the guy, that's why he got sick," in order to save face?

I find myself is a slightly different path. I don't want him to die but I can't waste my emotional energy on a bigot. What will be will be.
Yeah, he absolutely didn't consider himself to be a part of the herd that had to be subjected to virus.
