I think this will keep the fuckers away lol

It didn’t. But i’ll not argue with you
about it. Why do t you watch the press conference like i suggested then you will know what you are talking about?

Oh excellent attitude to take.
You deny what you stated was a question, so saying I am wrong.
But then say you are not going to argue about it.

So here goes, I am not going to debate it further with you.
But, if you are saying that you wording in your post, "she asked him to be clear about in his message," and
"“can you be clear about this, this, this..” You obviously don't have much knowledge of the English language, did you actually go to school ?
As said before, Sturgeon can ask Boris what she likes, but he has no obligation to reply, or take any notice, that would simply be a matter of courtesy, and if she keeps criticising him, why would he be courteous to her.
Her official means of criticism, and complaint is for Blackford as the SNP leader in the house of commons is to tell him to raise her concerns in Westminster.

 

[Badboybez]

And yet you did.

Yes.

How do they work out the rate of infection ?
As i just found this

Boris has lost control of the UK, it is not just Scotland going against his advice but also Wales and NI
Bez you can keep on defending him but he has lost the plot.

It could be said that he has lost control of Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland. But he may have not, see yes the devolved countries have refused to follow his relaxation of the rules under the UK government, but in reality only three people have not taken on board his policy, the leaders, it does not mean the whole population of those countries have no respect for his advice.
As to the leader of Wales, he changes his mind on policy as often as he changes his underpants, at the start of last week he publicly said that he was going to relax the rules in Wales so that people could do the same thing as Boris has done over exercise, and walking etc in, on the proviso that the Welsh did not gather on beaches, or the mountain walks. Then at the weekend he said he wasn't going to. Now has he not lost the plot ?
Sturgeon, as I have said before I think has her own political agenda in mind rather than the health of the Scottish population, with her constant criticism of the UK government, and ongoing demands for another independence referendum my opinion is that she simply want's to become Leader of a Scottish Republic, and will use any means available to get there.
Northern Ireland, now that is a bit of a "basket case" government (no offense to any Irish members, I am part Irish) the members constantly squabble over what is a long standing religious, and territorial dispute, effectively go on strike from parliament for years,etc.
The leaders of the devolved countries are playing a game with high stakes, under the UK constitution it would simple take a vote in the UK parliament to reverse the devolved powrs they currently enjoy. Also if their policies over covid start to affect the recovery of the economy it would be a fairly simple matter to reduce their funding for furlough paymemts, etc.
I will keep defending Boris, I think on the whole he has done a good job so far as Prime Minister. Before anyone says I am a lifelong tory voter, I am not, the last general election was the first time I have voted for a conservative candidate in either national, or local elections.
But I think he has done a good job so far on Brexit when others had fannied about & got nowhere, is doing a decent job over covid so far, especially when you consider he has only been in power for a matter of months.
It is easy for the likes of Starmer, and Sturgeon to stick the knife in at the moment, but would they have done a better job, I suspect not, how can anybody say they would have done better over covid when this country has never faced anything like this in modern times, and so has no experience of it, and no similar situation to compare it to.

It’s quite symbolic, how all of the nations of the u.k. are parting ways.

I don't think it's symbolic, I think it's great.
With a bit of luck they will all become independent, and have to stand on their own.
Maybe they could form an alliance. Bit like the USSR, and look what happened to that.

 

[Badboybez]

it makes me wonder if they sprang the "independence vote" how many people would vote leave at the moment

With a bit of luck the vast majority of all the devolved countries.

On a serious side now, the devolved countries can't "spring" an independence vote on the UK government, they have to ask in Westminster if they can have one, notably NI can only ask for one every ten years.

 

[Badboybez]

I think it’s a cert that the next time scotland has one it will be yes with a fairly
big majority. i’m even planning to vote yes, and i hate the bastards.

Bring it on.
