Breaking news .....

Boris Johnson was admitted to hospital tonight.

As yet, this is being called a 'precautionary measure'. But .. Boris has had Covid-19 symptoms for 10 days now, and so he's been admitted to hospital to assess why, even though his symptoms remain mild, he hasn't beaten the disease yet.

Boris has followed his own Government's advice and self-isolated (at 11 Downing Street, next door to no 10 !) for seven days. One week later ... and his high temperature is persisting.

Matt Hancock shrugged the disease off fairly easily. Boris is having a harder time of it.

Prime Minister Boris Johnson has been admitted to hospital for tests, 10 days after testing positive for coronavirus, Downing Street has said.

Mr Johnson "continues to have persistent symptoms of coronavirus", a spokeswoman said.

It was described as a "precautionary step" taken on the advice of his doctor.

Wow! I sure hope he pulls through... he's been a Godsend for you guys.

10 days does seem longer than the usual recovery time, but he's no spring chicken, either.

10 days does seem longer than the usual recovery time, but he's no spring chicken, either.

Speculation is (according to commentary I'm hearing on LBC News) that as he had a pneumonia-related condition earlier on in his life, this might be having an impact on his ability to recover. Still ... his symptoms remain mild.

It's also being said that he might've delayed his recovery by continuing to work on during this past week. He was also seen out of his sick bed to take part in the public weekly 'clap to support the NHS' nationwide gesture ... something many people are doing as a gesture of appreciation for all the health workers putting themselves at risk during these times.

Here's a pic of him taking part in last Thursday's public clapping ... obviously unwell at the time ...

Yeah, hopefully just a precaution as you said due to the length maybe? I hope he's in a damn well good and protected room! Hope he beats it and then beats it out of the hospital soon!

I'm sure that he'll want to get out of hospital just as soon as he can. He's still in charge of his Government, as of right now.

Everybody, right now, calls this 'precautionary', because of the length of time his high temperature has persisted.

Fuck prayers, didn't help anyone who died so far. They didn't deserve to live? They didn't get enough prayers? Fuck that.

Like I said folks - a piece of shit.

He doesn't give a shit about anyone. Doesn't respect anyone. And if we here want to be cool for a bit and offer one another support and prayers - well fuck that! The piece of shit thinks otherwise and must make that known in the midst of all of this. Can't off a prayer as he doesn't believe, can't offer any support or thoughts for others either - but has the time to condemn anyone giving solace out there via prayers. Now's the time to condemn and deny such things, for a piece of shit anyway.

Take note, Drummond? I have pointed things like this out so many times before. But I know many stayed silent and out of it, which is Aok and preferred by me actually. So I am not sure folks even read into his shit at all.

But every member here that comes across this - should know how he has responded through all of this.

Can you imagine how things were after 9/11? And pete likely condemning NYC, and telling us to fuck our prayers, even when directed to the helpers and lost 3,000 souls.

Bad times and sad times. Prayers and thoughts and concern going around. But pete has time to troll troll troll away AS USUAL.

Doesn't matter who prayers are directed to. They are empty and useless. Go donate blood, stitch face masks, but don't pray. Waste of time. Never helped anyone. Do something useful.

This scumbag is being removed from all threads in which he directs his fucking stupidity towards others, and acts like a prick through the worst of times here.

If ANYONE here thinks I am being too harsh, and that his input on this pandemic, and what he has been offering to the virus threads, and comments about many things that he can't just keep to himself. If so much as 2 members even agree it's too much, I'll back off.

But as it stands, I think he's generally being an asshole, and more or less trolling us here right now, and during this. Never mind showing a little RESPECT toward Boris, and maybe even Drummond, or others that care about this. Some have concern and many want to be respectful of course. But to pete it's a joke.

As I've just posted elsewhere ... all that's happened here is that Pete has reverted to type. He's afflicted with adherence to a dogma that, by its very nature, considers empathy of individuals a waste, a 'non-event'. To the Left, it's the 'masses' that matter .. how 'the masses' must be directed to think and behave. Those thinking and behaving outside of the approved manner, are of no consequence to a Leftie.

Thus, human decency barely exists. It isn't 'legislated' for, beyond confines of impersonal dogma.

Leftieism lacks a soul, or even a concept of one. That's the truth here.
