Before anyone Diss the guy look in the mirror and ask your self what r u going if it's nothing shut the feck up

mary_sturino Just imagine if TheMadPresident went back to work as a reality TV host what a wonderful this would be.

mary_sturino Stunning

Unfortunately this is a PR exercise, we just had an revolutionary election, Leo's party lost big time, he was 5th in his own constituency, he's been out posing and all sorts, he's an acting PM, we can't form a Gov, has all the optics of pre-electioneering.

That is what a leader looks like. It points out that people like Mr Johnson have no really useful skills. (I don't count the ability to endlessly spout bullshit as a skill.)

Fortunately as a Doctor, he'll be under the watchful eye of a consultant who heads up a team. That gives him no scope to make a complete ham sandwich of things, like he has done in Government, relatively unchecked.

This is what real leaders do

Based

whyohwhyfather Beat that, Johnson, you bluffer.

When he can do, why can't you sambitswaraj ?

I admire Leo.

👏 fair play

While the UK PM hides in his flat after running away and his mouth piece has shut himself away in No.10 Strange thing is no one misses either Cummings or Johnson And both are useless in a crisis

The contrast with our integrity-free PM is starker by the day.

What a guy. Kudos!

Chapeau

It was unsustainable. It's bizarre as they don't spend much on tranfers and have sold players with a good profit. They seem to live easily within their budget. Hopefully, they can resolve this.

Sweden is risking a lot as its coronavirus experiment comes under strainWhy is Sweden, my birth country, responding differently than others to the coronavirus crisis? When this is over Sweden could have an economy and might buy up all failed businesses in Europe, they should be banned from that, *** assholes, they will not benefit from what they are doing, same goes for China. ban investment and trade with them. Anyone know if flights come in and from Sweden, if so BAN THEM, infact Ban Swedish, kick out Swedish in UK, c*nts. We were carrying out the same policy; however, the media pressure and hysteria was so overwhelming from the celebrity armchair virologists that the government altered course, but guess what, time was show we were right and so is Sweden.
