Bollocks ! .. he doesn’t give a fu€k !

“I’m sorry you feel that way...”

Boris y are a Judas

Boris never cared for the public only his rich loonies

Well sack him

Regret naw it’s what i expecr from a Tory party in power lead by a clown 🙄

Too late boris the dMGe is done znd your support for the fairy story is a disgrace

bla..bla..bla..excuses..excuses..excuses..come on..HE IS the PM chief aide...dont tell me that he doesnt know any trusted contact to handle his non-essential matters in Durham, up to extend that he willing to sacrifice the people well being?!!..come on..think people..think..!

Not confused. Very angry. Even angrier at your failure to sack him, and from his statement today, your knowledge and complicity in his law-breaking. SackCummings

Nobody feels angry or confused; they're just feigning outrage because he's a Tory, nothing more.

Keep digging

Therefore it must be our problem then, Pinocchio ?

I’m sorry you feel this way,translated,I don’t give a fuck what you plebs think

I bet he does

Regrets are not enough he needs to be sacked

That is a codependent, irresponsible statement if ever I heard one. Translation: I feel uncomfortable with all the negative press we are receiving but I am totally unable to take responsibility for the actions my adviser and I have taken to spark these feelings.

This is a Proto Patel type apology... ie not one

Oh regrets it does he. In the same way Priti Patel said she was ‘sorry we felt that way’. Nothing but arrogance, denial and outright Lies from the WM government

No he doesn't. To be able to feel regret you have to have empathy. And Boris is an empathy free human.

If that’s not patronising the ‘commoners’ I don’t know what is! 🙄

Regret is a euphemism for 'couldn't give a Flying Flamingo' I typed 'shit' but changed it

its like calming down a small dog during a storm. just theres no way of telling a small dog its fine and its just being stupid.

Wonder how many people regret voting for him....

They can't even apologise, that's the worst bit. 'I'm sorry that you feel I'm a utter arsehole, but that's just who I am' pitiful

He’s just taking the piss now. Why are we letting him get away with this lying crap

Don’t need him to be sorry about my anger. I rather him been sorry for lack of integrity around him. prick

No.... no, we are not confused. We are just fucking angry

He Ricked us. 'I'm sorry you think you deserve an apology'

Covid hysteria suckers feel dirty and wrong

TruthOverFacts TakeTheRedPill 🌹

What’s there to be confused about?

Never have so many good people received so little from so few incompetents ....Boris and Dom ....which one is the host and which one is the parasite?

Boris Patel

Stuff your regrets they mean nothing from you

Well keep on regretting Bojo because we're feeling angry and confused. But mainly angry BorisJohnson

Confused? How condescending...who does he think he is? He the one who's 'been away'.

junrussell So -ing angry

So the priminister BorisJohnson has to wait until an unelected adviser DominicCumins has finished his press conference at 10DowningStreet before he can speak? Who's in charge now? Was Brexit not to get rid of unelected officials?

we arent confused, but we are definitely angry!

I’m upset, angry and confused by BoJo’s actions. I’ve made my mind up. What can I do? Nothing. I’m a pleb.

Not half as much as Britain surely regrets voting this tosser in.

Funny because people regret voting for him so he can probably call it quits. What a let down.

“I’m sorry that you feel upset about us shitting on you but get over it, you plebs.”

But nit enough regret to show him the door? Oh, ok...

No he doesn’t he couldn’t care less

I bet he does!

Oh he's sorry we feel this way...

Just got to remember this when BoJo needs us for votes In The future. I certainly won’t forget. Keir Srarmer seems a decent bloke. All KS has to do is nothing. Just let BoJo fuck up.

BorisJohnson That's the second patronising talking to, for the UK public today. Get MattHancock out and we can have a hat trick...

We don’t feel confused. We can see clearly, thanks.

SackCummings

Not even bothering to listen in; not after the fetid tripe from the puppet master earlier ~ absolutely galling stuff, I daresay.

I’m not confused, I know exactly what’s going on

Oh yes, I’m sorry if you are offended - but not sorry about what happened

By BorisJohnson still standing by Cummings, he’s giving a free license for people to do as they please. Cummings has got to resign or get sacked after want the c*nt has done

straight from the pritipatel book of non-apologies

The Tories are now out the next election and it's official

'I'm sorry if you feel angry about our BS!'
