Downing Street rejected suggestions the PM sometimes makes time in his diary for a 'power' nap in order to refresh himself.

Boris Johnson does not take naps during the day and claims that the prime minister likes an afternoon snooze are"untrue", Number 10 has said.

Downing Street rejected suggestions Mr Johnson sometimes makes time in his diary for a"power" nap in order to refresh himself for the rest of his working day. According to a report in The Times on Tuesday, the prime minister's aides are said to be aware of Mr Johnson's fondness of a quick slumber. "It would not be entirely uncommon in the diary for him to shut the door and have a kip for half an hour or so - a power executive business nap to get him ready for the rest of the day," the newspaper quoted one Downing Street insider as saying.

However, asked about the report at a daily briefing for Westminster journalists, Mr Johnson's press secretary Allegra Stratton dismissed the claims.Asked if there was a gap in the prime minister's diary for naps, Ms Stratton added:"No gap. The prime minister does not have a nap.

There is someone in the room look in the mirror reflection. Perhaps he was just blinking when this was taken but was obvs not asleep.

iEmonM_ Loool nothing wrong with an afternoon snooze, I for one from time to time indulge in an afternoon 'snooze'

So what if he did

Probably too pissed to remember

Highest death toll in Europe and the £100k a year spokesperson talks about his naps.

Is anyone really interested if Boris has a nap during the day? Would have preferred it if he had slept for 5 years

So, it's true then.

I take naps during the day and am very happy for Boris to do the same. I wake refreshed and raring to go.

Da fuk are you trying to attack him for napping for? The guys job is literally 24/7... I'm surprised he sleeps at all. Anyone actually genuinely angry or attacking him for napping is an idiot.

One more clown 🤡 to go!

Is this all you can dig up to report on today?

So what? Why is this news? Does he work 9 till 5? I think we have a wave of more important things to do.

So why does this prick always have bed-head!?!

Never mind a nap. If my mother had seen him with his feet up on the table she would have boxed his ears! That would have been a sight.

He is just resting his eyes

He should coz it might stop him screwing something else up!

I though he was half asleep most of the time

If he does there is nothing wrong with it. It's not as if it's a 9 - 5 job. Having worked lates, earlies, nights and 12 hour shifts. A 20 - 30 min nap can make a big difference.

Somebody wants to tell his hair that

Ffs 🤣 maybe he needs to have a snooze bless him ...

Slow news day is it?

Wow.. how is his napping habits news! So what if he does. Got a lot on his plate at the moment don’t ya think?!

BorisJohnson may as well be asleep 24/7! BrexitCarnage COVID19 ToryGenocide

he has a nip instead - or two or three

Then, the ineptness and the incompetence must come due to that horrible whining voice of the feminine witch.

This is the standard of journalism we expect from US owned SkyNews. Anything to distract attention away from the mess in the US.

He clearly isn’t sleeping and so what if he is!! 🙄

Me too, for today 😁

How would they notice?

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Naps are needed by people who actually do some work! So ofcourse he doesn’t need one!

Scratching for news

He would be less grouchy if he did. Just sit him down to watch Mr Tumble under a blanket and he'll soon drop off. Just has to stop fighting it.

I bet a packet of skittles he does

Because he actually sleeps all day?

Of course he does. I imagine there's a glass of warm milk and a blanky as well

We are in a world where flexibility should be embraced! Work with the natural flow of your body. Judge him on performance not number of hours worked!

Let the man nap...naps are 🔥

What about an afternoon wank?

I would if i was him, infact i'd take the nap everytime Starmer speaks

Thanks for confirming this.

If you’re working from home then what else is others to do?

Give the man a break its not easy destroying the economy...

He’s not worried about losing £20 a week prick

Great bit of news, you guys must be bored

I don’t know how he sleeps at night let alone during the day with the blood he has on his hands

Well, he wanted the job!

Please allow him to nap, It will save our working class billions of pounds.

He’s been napping since January last year

Lol he should be laying on the bed 😴

I agree with criticism of Boris & government especially when warrants it , but I totally find this kind of article complete gutter press. What happened to credibility & picking your battles.

he been napping for the past 12 months

He does, otherwise their is no excuse for his hair.

So what if he does? Try doing his job and not feel exhausted haha

He may as well have been asleep all the way through this pandemic 😡👊🏼

Quiet news day?

I do it every day so fair play to Boris😂

With the hours he does, the stress of the job, no harm in a little 30 min nap to get through the day

Prime Minister of Great Britain? Easy- peasy. Like a Sunday morning.
