"Seems a bit strange to say such a thing as I had to make funeral arrangements in November when the covid deaths were much higher than now and was told that the crematoriums weren’t particularly busy." We booked my Grandad's funeral in mid February and the crem was booked up and the funeral directors said they were extremely busy, much more so than a standard winter. This was in the Lake District. | |||

"I think some people are that awful. Did the PM say it? No idea. I think Tories are flinging shit at each other." agreed i find part of the conversation entirely pointless too - what is all this crap about investigation into a leak about the second lockdown in november - why are we even talking about it? like we don’t have more important things to be spending public money on than pretending to investigate a leak that they slready know tge source of because was put out on purpose because its exactly the strategy of govt engagement with the media since the beginning of covid  | |||
" ...I am not a forensic linguist... " Perhaps that should be a 'forensic speech (or diction) analyst'. Maybe we will be hearing from some soon, if the papers can locate any of them. | |||

Quite how the hell we have come to the position that the electorate will vote for a party precisely because it is led by somebody that is incapable of even knowing what truth is, I do not know. But that is where we are. The only remaining purpose of the UK government is to funnel public money into the hands of thieves, liars and ne'er-do-wells. And everybody not just knows that, they expect it. They celebrate it. | |||

Chamberlain, and his conservative government, led us with his strategy into WW2, a coalition lead us out. Tony Blair and the Labour party led us into the occupation of Iraq and Afghanistan. They all had strategy, they all failed. Maybe they should have given up because an internet forum one day would say so? | |||

"It seems to be the typical type of comment that he makes, so it fits him. He doesn't care, he's interested solely in himself and he's morally bankrupt, as a liar, cheat and unscrupulous charlatan. It would be better for him to be honest and to speak truthfully, rather than craft a thin facade. As picked our earlier, he refers to bodies, not lost loved ones, or even people. Dead or alive, you are the equivalent of a carcass to him. His autumn actions were those of someone who dodged decision making for too long, not wanting to lockdown. His Cummings guide portrays him clearly this way too. It's no surprise. " Now, I'm not an actual fan of Boris but who can you possibly suggest as a viable alternative?

"Boris would be an idiot to go against Cummings he will all sorts of shit on him. He should just apologise and give him his job back " This is what puzzles me, he is pretty much in his position as Cummings has been the kingmaker.. Cummings is the brains behind a referendum based on lies, the disruption to Mays brexit and the coup to oust her, the Tory election win and the red wall collapse plus 'getting brexit done' even with its now obvious flaws and issues.. He is a clever bloke but he's also meant to be analytical in details and Boris must have known there would be a reaction.. Why go after him now? Maybe to get him and his backers out on the field of play and defeat them before the next election? But that suggests strategies and Cummings was his strategist.. Why prod a scorpion? | |||

"Everytime I've seen someone say about 'when the bodies are piling up on the streets' just makes me wonder how much of a grasp on reality they actually have??" If this was said and a big if,what is the context of this? Actions speak louder than words and the governments performance on vaccine and role out has been fantastic that is the facts. Maybe he was replying to something and said something like"I do not want bodies piling up the street" All this is anti Boris conspiracy and is a form of nazi/facists propaganda from within in olden days they would have just assasinated poor Boris. These people are in my view EU remoaners and hate Boris's success against covid. the Mail should be shut down they are the biggest two faced bastards in the press along wit the BBC not far behind. | |||

I'm not in any way a fan, but I'm totally agnostic on this particular statement. I'd rather have discussion on other failings, but I'm hoping this might be the thin edge of the wedge.

"It's important that ministers or indeed any meetings can be held and people are trusted with confidential information. That's why leaks are damaging. As for what may or not have been said in this instance. Context is important. Any government or leadership team needs to have trust to operate. If they can't trust eachother, then why should we be expected to trust them. " Agreed. | |||

"I'm genuinly curious in what context 'I'd rather see bodies piled high 'is in anyway acceptable? 3 people have now confirmed he said it so it's their word against a man who lies that much ,he literally needs to be fact checked. Even his paymasters at the mail and express have had enough of his hapless bufoonery. Although I'm not sure how callous remarks like that actually correlate to his clown like image is anyones guess." I can see a situation where the non Boris faction made it up to oust him. Either way it's like - children stop fighting, you're supposed to be running the fucking country. | |||

"Thing is... As someone says above... What's happened to our politics? Her Majesties opposition, the second House, the quality press... To hold HMG to account? I don't know enough about it, but it looks like a chimps tea party at the moment and we need better. (not going to say we deserve better). " 100% agreed | |||

"It's important that ministers or indeed any meetings can be held and people are trusted with confidential information. That's why leaks are damaging. As for what may or not have been said in this instance. Context is important. Any government or leadership team needs to have trust to operate. If they can't trust eachother, then why should we be expected to trust them. " i think genuine leaks might be a damaging sign of lack of trust sure, but “leak to the press a few days before to gauge opinion and soften the blow” what the next lockdown steps would be was the comms strategy last year, its not really a leak if you planned and organised for it to happen | |||

"I think some people are that awful. Did the PM say it? No idea. I think Tories are flinging shit at each other. agreed i find part of the conversation entirely pointless too - what is all this crap about investigation into a leak about the second lockdown in november - why are we even talking about it? like we don’t have more important things to be spending public money on than pretending to investigate a leak that they slready know tge source of because was put out on purpose because its exactly the strategy of govt engagement with the media since the beginning of covid
This feels different, I think.
I mean yeah we should be looking at other things that have gone wrong not the Tories fighting with each other, but - I wonder if some mud might finally stick.
No mud will stick, because already every single person in the country assumes, nay knows for a fact, that if the prime ministers mouth is moving, he us telling lies. Quite how the hell we have come to the position that the electorate will vote for a party precisely because it is led by somebody that is incapable of even knowing what truth is, I do not know. But that is where we are. The only remaining purpose of the UK government is to funnel public money into the hands of thieves, liars and ne'er-do-wells. And everybody not just knows that, they expect it. They celebrate it."Gets my vote.. | |||

We've all said/heard phrases like 'I'll die before I'll go back there again', but we all know it's not actually true. Perhaps he said something similar, like 'I'll need to see' rather than 'I would rather see'. Granted, it's still a hard thing to say, but I'm using it as an example...Don't flame me for it.
We all know Boris is full of confidence and blustre, so the context is also something that should be considered. Perhaps he was trying to give a Churchillian we shall fight them in the hillsides speach at the time to rally the troops into believing that no circumstance would lead him to another lockdown.
I don't know the answer, but then again, I don't know all of what was supposedly said and I refuse to condemn or commend someone for a semi half truth that might not quite be true.
When the 'Anonymous aide', 'Downing street source' or whatever they are called has a fact to back up the story, I will be all ears.
In what context would 'I'd rather have bodies being piled onto street'be remotely acceptable?"It was just a figure of speech... | |||

I don't know if he said it or someone is making it up.
I'm glad the media finally seem to be paying attention.
i don’t know if he said it, i wouldn’t defend him if he did , but i do know we have had 2 further lockdowns since it was apparently said
one of which we are now tentatively easing our way out of and we don’t really seem to have much in the way of government plans for what happens next in terms of stimulating our economy without increasing public health risk too much , hell we don’t even know what “the end of social restrictions” (be that june or later) actually means yet, and we still have border control issues - personally i think the media are paying attention to a smoke screen
oh look over here at my left hand some petty squabbling while at my right hand we have huge gaps in strategy for how we take the country through the next phase of covid
Gaps in strategy would imply that they had some strategy to have gaps in. There is not one single competent person in this government - the sole criteria to be allowed onto the team is to be worse than blowjo. A buffoon leading the venal, the dim, and the just plain cruel.just a wild ass guess but I think you'll be voting Red in the upcoming elections "I don't support any particular political party, i think that in my lifetime i have on different occasions cast my vote in most possible directions. Each time i look for some level of integrity (yeah, fat chance) and policies that might be good for the country and the people. The last several conservative PMs have varied between self centred, cruel, incompetent and criminal. Blair was a war criminal, i have always been of the opinion that people like Dr Kelly were murdered by the security forces. Clegg managed to finish off the Liberal party. Possibly the best PM that never was is John Smith, whose sudden death cleared the way for the take over by Blair. Corbyn was so painfully honest that he wouldn't defend himself against the media onslaught (on the basis that even answering the "just when did you stop beating your wife" type questions gives them credence, but unable to understand that not answering them is just as bad). Starmer gives a good performance as a lawyer, but has a policy vacuum. If he was in my area, Count Binface might be in with a shot to get my cross on the voting slip. He seems more honest than the rest, and his policies are not at all bad... | |||

"Everytime I've seen someone say about 'when the bodies are piling up on the streets' just makes me wonder how much of a grasp on reality they actually have??If this was said and a big if,what is the context of this? Actions speak louder than words and the governments performance on vaccine and role out has been fantastic that is the facts. Maybe he was replying to something and said something like"I do not want bodies piling up the street" All this is anti Boris conspiracy and is a form of nazi/facists propaganda from within in olden days they would have just assasinated poor Boris.

"I work very closely with a number of funeral homes, we have been busy with funerals but all the funeral directors have said at the beginning it was all covid now they are pulled out with ppl who haven't haven't got the care they should have got because its all about covid and nothing else, I deal with around 10 to 15 funeral homes on a weekly basis and most have said the same some big companies and some independent, current waiting time for funerals is 3 weeks but that's about normal for our area, but the next town is around 10days " My mother lived in covenrty They have 2 crems as it’s a big city She died before covid we had to wait 5 weeks to cremate her as 1 cream was closed for repairs So 3 weeks during a pandemic is pretty good in my opinion | |||

Because the media would twist anything he says about it corbyn was much the same,he very rarely made any comment as it only encourages the idiots in the media " The media were fully against Corbyn, from the moment he took the job. It's different for Johnson, as he's a posterboy for them. | |||
"If you believe this shit you’ll believe anything. " Johnson has form for serious errors, so it's not particularly unlikely. The opposite to your proposition is much more likely - Don't believe this shit, you'll believe anything. | |||

If they had actually caught covid surely they wouldn't have had much fear of catching it, more the fear of dying from it." Have you seen someone die from being unable to breathe for 3 weeks? Having their life tortured out of them? Gasping, body twitching for every tiny bit of oxygen.? My mum got it and was terrified. Rightly so. I've never seen the look of fear like that in her eyes. She died a slow horrible painful death. It's not about numbers. It's how they die. Some people really need to think a bit before typing. | |||

"Back on track. How pathetic it is to have a smear campaign for using a figure of speech . Had Priti Patel said,"Heads will Roll" does anyone seriously think she wants to bring back the guillotine.. Get off your high horses people and get some clarity of thinking instead of pathetic muckraking and mudslinging..." Goodness. Are we not allowed to discuss the conduct of our politicians, now? | |||

The mask certainly slipped at that point, he didn't look like the fun cuddly Boris that he tries to portray at that point ...but I do think that was just the icing on the cake after the grilling he was getting and it all came boiling over. I feared for his blood pressure | |||
"I don't obviously know if he said it but sadly after some of his other comments over the years it wouldn't surprise me if it turns out to be true and I think that is the awful part...thinking that he could have said it." If someone comes out and confirms it he is toast. Wouldnt surprise me in the slightest after his operation last gasp comments and he is on record as being totally opposed to lockdown. | |||

It’s been confirmed by at least two people. His days are numbered, he was supposed to be the fall guy for Brexit, covid has extended how long the tory party have endured his presence. This and the cash for curtains episode will see him removed. | |||

"It amused me when annually there are thousands of flu deaths in the UK. Some how the flu virus has been frightened off by covid. And I think that we know decease don't work that way. There should be the same amount of flu deaths that we see every year But somehow there's been a flat line of deaths caused by the flu. It's also strange that mainstream media hasn't picked up on this snippet too ! ??" Still had many flu deaths. Just not as many, but that was due to lockdown and wearing of masks. Simple really. | |||
