A pm is on record saying he is happy to let over 80s die and it's still not his responsibility

"Cummings as boris advisor gives reasons for trip to Barnard castle = Cummings isn’t to be believed. Cummings accuses Boris = Cummings is to be believed." He presented the written evidence directly from Johnson. The UK decided to do its best to be world leaders again. We were atrocious last year, because he can't take decisions, thus subjecting the country to much longer restrictions and costs to the economy and everyone's well-being, not to mention the tens of thousands of avoidable deaths, his indecision caused. We are currently no 3 in the world, for infections and the growth is phenomenal. But some people get a 'freedom' day and are happy.  | |||

"For the ones who say the BBC has proof that Boris said a particular thing, I'd ask, why haven't we seen the proof? I'd also like to point out this exert from the article and highlight the words 'allegedly' and 'reportedly'. Surely if they have the evidence you guys say then those words needn't be used. "In a WhatsApp message sent on 15 October, shared with the BBC, Mr Johnson appears to have described himself as "slightly rocked by some of the data on Covid fatalities". The "median age" for those dying was between 81 and 82 for men and 85 for women, the prime minister allegedly wrote, adding: "That is above life expectancy. So get Covid and Live longer. "Hardly anyone under 60 goes into hospital... and of those virtually all survive. And I no longer buy all this NHS overwhelmed stuff. Folks I think we may need to recalibrate... There are max 3m in this country aged over 80." He reportedly went on to write: "It shows we don't go for nationwide lockdown." Isn't it funny how people read things."

"BBC interview Cummings says Boris Johnson resisted lockdowns as ‘only over 80’s were dying’ Will he be giving evidence is there is ever a covid enquiry for the 150,000 that have covid on their death certificates. Cummings who was BoJo's chief advisor at the time. Great guy. Let's believe everything he says because he's trustworthy and not bitter at all.
It's a quandary, one is a serial liar with more than one loss of a job for that and the other has admitted he lied over Barnard castle and is intent in putting the knife in..
Neither are trustworthy imo but there's no way the BBC already on the defensive with this government would report this without seeing the evidence..
It looks shitty, poor judgement and further adds to what many believe being Boris did not take it seriously enough initially, then failed to learn the lessons of the first lockdown and has dithered and taken too long to act..
This. ^
E"I'm not sure anyone's going to try and defend Boris or cummings as his advisors' handling of this and I'm certainly not. But What I do find irritating is the faux outrage of some at the alleged reluctance to lock down when others have been banging that drum for exactly the same reason since the start of this. I'm sure it's not the first time anyone's seen the statement it's only killing over 80s so let's protect them and crack on. | |||

A political obsession more like. You have, if course, supported lockdown...why should you pretend to be outraged when it is suggested for the vulnerable?"I've supported lockdown so I fail to see your point. | |||

Because it's indefinite detention for vulnerable people rather than reasonable measures by all of us. Reasonable measures which protect all of us, rather than leaving the vast majority of us exposed and still likely breaking through to the vulnerable (as they need access to groceries and carers). Are you saying that putting the vulnerable into solitary confinement for the rest of their lives is acceptable so that we don't have to take measures to protect all of us? That long term effects and deaths in those not deemed vulnerable are acceptable, including the disability bill for possibly decades to come? I think such a policy would be both cruel and stupid, personally. | |||

"For the ones who say the BBC has proof that Boris said a particular thing, I'd ask, why haven't we seen the proof? I'd also like to point out this exert from the article and highlight the words 'allegedly' and 'reportedly'. Surely if they have the evidence you guys say then those words needn't be used. "In a WhatsApp message sent on 15 October, shared with the BBC, Mr Johnson appears to have described himself as "slightly rocked by some of the data on Covid fatalities". The "median age" for those dying was between 81 and 82 for men and 85 for women, the prime minister allegedly wrote, adding: "That is above life expectancy. So get Covid and Live longer. "Hardly anyone under 60 goes into hospital... and of those virtually all survive. And I no longer buy all this NHS overwhelmed stuff. Folks I think we may need to recalibrate... There are max 3m in this country aged over 80." He reportedly went on to write: "It shows we don't go for nationwide lockdown." Isn't it funny how people read things." Well said | |||

He did say this himself when interviewed but it sounded very hollow knowing he had no integrity to speak up when it was happening, however, I think all this should come out if it happened, but I am not sure this is the way to do it. Disclaimer , I am not into politics, not interested in getting into it, didn't vote on the last two elections as I didn't know who I wanted to vote for , I just think the handling of most of the pandemic has been abysmal and if there were big mistakes made and they kept repeating them then they should be culpable with a REAL independent enquiry.

"So regardless of the infighting on these threads and regardless of whether Johnson or Cummings is the bigger cunt... We have a PM who was prepared to allow citizens of the UK to be collateral damage because they are/were old! In what fucking world is that ok? I think it's a question, do we believe him. I don't trust either of them, never have. Cummings is a liar but might be telling the truth. Extrinsic evidence suggests that what he's saying is in keeping with how the government has behaved. Much as a fool Boris is, I really can't see anyone saying, fuck it let 'em die". Anecdotal evidence on past performance suggests it may be. But please don't let it be so. Surely no one, no matter how much of an arse could be that cold. The thought that someone could have makes we weep.
E
I'm really not sure how many times I can say this..before it sinks in...it is on record.
Read the link.
No. No I won't. I can't bare the thought that someone actually coldy made that decision.
It's too heart breaking to consider.
I know how much you despise the Torys, so you'll doubtless revel in it.
Me, I have more compassion for humanity than political point scoring on this one.
Sorry Lionel, I can't come out to play at this party.
E
Pointing out something which has categorically happened is not 'revelling 'in it.
However you stick your head in the sand.
I'm sure that will help."Given the amount of times you've called DC a liar on these very forums, it's quite funny to see you saying he categorically said something and you're taking it as gospel. In reality, you have no more idea what was actually said by either of them than I do. Neither of us was in the room, were we not. As far as sticking my head in the sand goes, I think I made it crystal clear why I have no stomach for reading the article. As for the "I'm sure that'll help" comment, petty, unnecessary and sarcastic. E | |||

"You cannot possibly believe a word that comes out of his mouth. Anything he does or doesn’t know will be manipulated and twisted to suit. Ultimately, if what he is saying is all true then he’s as bad for not doing anything about it. "If Cummings was so concerned about the fate of society under BoJo and Co 12-15 months ago, why did he not blow the whistle then? Why did he not come forward with these messages and other evidence that the PM and others were going awry? Why wait till he's been sacked and looking (to the casual observer) like someone trying to get revenge. Because that's what it LOOKS like. He might well be telling the truth, but he's as bad for sitting on the information months to a year ago! | |||

Laura K will have been shown Cummings’ phone and it will look legit. The fact that Cummings has the confidence to make these claims means he must feel he is legally on safe ground. However, the BBC lawyers will require caution. Doesn’t change my earlier post - both of these sorry excuses for human beings are cunts but as BJ has the edge. | |||

You give a much better explanation than anyone else, thanks for that. I'm of the opinion that Laura or someone at the BBC has seen the first quote. The others may just have come out of Cummings' mouth. Hence the use of said words. It's the placement of these words which leave me questioning them. Boris may have said these things, or may have even put them in a WhatsApp message but I still don't feel it's right to say he absolutely did without seeing the evidence. That's what's been labelled at him here. The guy is a liar as we all know, but, that doesn't mean he is guilty of everything people say about him. Especially someone with an axe to grind. | |||

I believe he did have Covid because to try and cover up that the PM was NOT in a large NHS hospital for a week or whatever would require immense numbers of people to lie and not divulge. " I agree, that's a conspiracy theory too far. I also believe BJ had Covid.

"Slightly off topic. Does anyone believe that bojo had covid last year? Yes, I doubt the nurses who cared for him would have lied when they spoke about his treatment afterwards. Only one thing is certain. The nurses will have been required to sign the Official Secrets Act. There are very serious consequences from breaking the OSA. That's not wholly accurate. Nurses aren't required to sign the OSA, but they can be bound to it by the terms of their contract. The Act states that a person can be "notified" that he or she can be bound by it. The implications for a breach are the same regardless of a signature or a notification. E" I didn’t say nurses are required to sign OSA. Just that THESE nurses treating the PM will have been required. Huge difference. | |||

"150000 with or of covid.. My local hospital in answer to a FOI request replied te following. Since march 2020 until April 2021 only 22 died of covid and had no other underlying illness. Ask you local hospital Trust the same question " Here we go again. And the earth is flat. The one certainty in life is that we are all going to die. As far as I'm concerned I would like to avoid that outcome for as long as possible. And as far as I'm concerned Covid is real. For that reason, where possible I would prefer not to catch it in case it hastens my early demise. You believe what you want, but by you're own logic you'd better hope you never you never have any other medical condition that requires hospitalisation... | |||

He came across like it was (and is) all a game, giggling like a schoolboy when questioned about his stretching of truths in the same way the class clown would giggle when reminded the stink bomb he'd released had caused the Head of Modern Foreign Languages to be physically sick (yes, this happened in my school!) | |||

"Hm, I am extremely sceptical about anything that Dominic Cummings has to say which of course does not mean that I am not extremely sceptical about Boris Johnson's competence and motivations - it is not "either/or". A man who has caused controversy with his very questionable actions and left his job in dubious circumstances is now making various loud proclamations about how wrong the prime minister has been and admitting that he lied about the controversy of breaking lockdown etc. As Chief Advisor at the time the hipocricy and self-interest is glaringly obvious, it is also in extremely bad taste, to be frank. Grim." It's all grim | |||
