It’s a nonsense, propagated by those whose pronouncements are so facile, if they weren’t so ludicrous, they’d be ignored as the waffle of the fringe. As it is, our current crop of politicians seem to like to play to this particular gallery. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peelyfeet Posted May 25, 2020 Share Posted May 25, 2020 He's talking shit. Before they left, his wife had no typical covid symptoms. That afternoon she'd suddenly been sick once and felt like she may pass out. He had no symptoms. Most people in their 40's arent hospitalised, it's less than 2% for women in their 40s, and most of them have underlying conditions. Most who are hospitalised do so after several days of worsening symptoms. The chance of two 40yr olds in the same household, one a woman, being hospitalised suddenly, from covid, at exactly the same time is miniscule. If it did happen you'd get several days warning, and it's highly likely that one would be hospitalised before the other. He knew this. What did he think was hoing to happen to his child if both parents became hospitalised at the same time, killed by journalists? More likely one of his relatives would have come down to London to help before it got to that stage, dont you think? He says he suspected he and his wife had covid. He knew that many people are asymptomatic for several days, yet still chose to drive. He wasn't ill at all when they drove up late at night, (conveniently for him, as it avoids questions about him being fit to drive) yet the next morninig he had covid symptons and a serious fever, nice coincidence, and was really ill apparently. Then, 5 days later he left the house again to pick his wife and kid up from hospital. Must have been well suddenly , ive had flu a couple of times, no chance I'd be driving anywhere. No taxis apparently - none in the whole of Durham! Bullshit. They went to Barnard Castle, 45 mins drive away to test his eyes, on his wifes birthday. And he felt sick so they sat by a river. On the way back the kid needed a piss so they stopped and played in a wood for a bit. Bullshit. If you feel sick, youre a high profile govmt aid, you shouldnt be out of the house except for emergencies, you tell your kid to have a piss asap and get your mrs to drive back.

Burned my bonce despite lashings of Factor 50. Burger, chips and salad with Mrs Manc and the FiL. 4 cans of Moretti and some nice Chilean Sauvignon Blanc. It’s why the sun comes out In other news, some folk sat inside glued to their telly and then hammered the fuck out of their keyboards cos some irrelevant cunt took a drive in his car and went on TV to tell everyone why he did it. Said folk then had a wankfest about it I just chilled. Didn’t bother me one iota. I was almost Rudy-like after one of his sessions with his herbs. PS2 has been switched on. Life continues...

Liar He has direct access to the leading experts in the country. Your missus is ill, you are worried about your kid. You either; 1 Jump in the car and drive 260 miles to your parents farm and wait for you teenage/early20s relatives to deliver supplies. (Presumably orange lucozade and paracetamols) OR 2. Ask one of the experts for advise. Every Monday of my working life I spent some time talking to work mates about what they did at weekend. Boris and Dom after both having this serious virus have not discussed what they went through until this week when the story broke. Total bollocks.

If he was irrelevant nobody would have cared. My neighbours have done worse. He's one of the most powerful people on the UK, he fucked up, broke rules that he had a part in creating, hasn't appologised, and has either spun a bullshit excuse or has had a stream of unfortunate coincidences.

Send me a message, I’ve got some magic beans I’m flogging. I believe he's a fucking idiot for going out at all. If he/she weren't convinced he was yet safe, he should have stayed home. At best, have a quick half mile down a quiet lane near the farm. For me, this is arguably worse than his initial trip. If you're fishing for angle that he was just out for a jolly, then you could be correct, who knows- though a quick mooch whilst your kid has a piss is hardly a whale of a time. Would have been better staying at the farm and having another walk in the private woods. So having considered his explanation and an alternative, then yes it may well be a case of truth being stranger than fiction. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
