that is the face of a man who is tired of your bullshit

But if you must go out please remember, all crime is legal for 24 hours.
Philexspectorate
Got the job by stabbing his predecessor in the back. A multi millionaire who pays no taxes from a rich family who does the same.
leethario695
It was so ambiguous, police will try to persuade groups to disperse apparently.
Allegedly gave his mistress taxpayers money while mayor of London. 1hen police wanted her laptop with emails etc, he claimed it was "stolen"
ILikeSpuds
Yeah but they still aren’t listening. Seen far too many people out today. I have to go to work as I am required by law. Everybody go home!
Look up the Heathrow third runway debacle.he got elected as an mp by promising to block it. when the vote came up he disappeared for days.
Too little, too late by an incompetent Trump wannabe... has a history of running away from crisis and anything connected with bad news.
MadLogTheGr8
First time that I see this muggle with combed hair - thus one knows it must be serious - now I miss the funtime of brexit with the wild hair
Dont let the carefully styled hair fool you. He has image "stylists" and a media "war cabinet" to manipulate the news and votes .
chromMemeAthlete
This guy always looks like a frazzled guidance counselor who can't get his life together but has to fake it for work.
TrynaHelp
He fakes the exact look you've described, for work. He scruffs his hair before going on TV to come across as a friendly boob. He's wicked
Known for his racist, mysoginist newspaper column published in Europe before he got this job. A famous dumbass on brit comedy shows.
inspiringandfunnyusernamecoolheh
But after the last pint how to get a date then
BoltAurelius
That sentence was dreadful, how long since your last pint?
yes

There goes the control group of what happens when you dont do anything

There's still Florida though ...
yeah but england is niceley isolated on an island and doesnt want to trade with us anymore

Finally! But my friend is severely stressed out, she's got a myriad of mental health issues and being alone is not good for her... 1/2
She can't stay with me, I've a fever & she's an "at risk". Can't find anyone for her & discord and video calls aren't enough.... help?! 2/2
Whitekikkatjunkie
Hey which city?
No city, the far, far north of Scotland~ Thus part of my worry. Tempted to tell her to ask around again (she knows more ppl than I)...

I work at a place that makes cardboard and I got the "I'm essential" letter to keep in my car in case my state gets locked down.
QuigleyDownUnder
Even the British ?rump is smarter than the American ?rump.
jm151
it's not that simple since a lot of this stuff is constitutionally reserved to the states. Get it through your head that just because the /1
US and UK are both countries, they don't have to work the same. The UK is only just over half the size of California
They are equivalents in quite a few substantial ways
TrapsAreIllegal
I wish he had acted sooner! Germany has gone even more extreme, banning more than 2 people together, and they are handling it well...
djstatika
He has banned more than 2 people together. Did nobody listen to him?
Ana5ta51a
Can you walk around the block with your dog so he can do his business?
FiggyB36
Yes. We’re allowed out for twenty minutes a day for exercise inc dog walking. Members of own household only.
Bigcurly2000
I'm searching for more info on what we can do but we're allowed one exercise activity per day. I have chickens in my allotment, they need1/2
Feeding twice a day, I can't find if that's allowed or not!

In washington here, we just got a stay at home order half an hour ago.

I'm visiting family and need to get back home, I can't leave my house empty for God knows how long, but dont know if I can travel -_-

This needs to happen in the US.

Britain has a vast amount of homeless people, wonder who'll be here for them now
Bidler
Can't confirm if there is any truth in it but a work colleague told me that some hotels are opening their rooms to the homeless
silverstilettos
Aussies just are grounded from the pub. We can still ttend school, shops etc...
BleachItsWhatsForDinner
It's nice to see a world leader with hair as bad as Trump.
hippy80
He's essentially Trump Lite. Not as dumb, occasionally listens to experts, and is slowly killing the UK's infrastructure...
ColonelCasual
He looks like a SNL actor trying to portray a British politician.
GoddamnitClown
Odd, his is not a common look. I'd have expected Jacob Rees-Mogg, Thatcher, or Hugh Grant
ReverseSyzygy
"as if Trump was a Charles Dickens character"
notme222
Boris reportedly does it on purpose though because it makes him seem more of an "everyman".
skizzit
100% correct. He is amazing at manipulating his image to come off as bumbling but likable.
JoeyLock
This debate is an example of his actual intellect hidden under the bumbling persona: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2k448JqQyj8
hep0710510
Does someone actually find him likable?
Phelpysan
He won the election, so presumably at least some people do...

For all those with family they hate, I feel for you. Those walls are keeping them in with you.

Mine are my cousins, so now I get to spend 3 quiet weeks with my close family!

So much this
ImWhompyWhomperson
I wish the US was this clear..."social distance" and "shelter-in-place" is too vague and employers find loopholes to force people to (1)
(2) Work under dangerous conditions...all to pad the pockets of the already rich.
bearmacee
my friends received the equivalent of hall passes today for "essential work" in case they get pulled over. im in Salem Oregon
Gestalt7
Expect it to get worse. The dipshit in charge is looking to ease the social distancing.
Trevor57
This is a very oversimplified assessment.
KootchieKoo
I'm living paycheck to paycheck as it is, MY pockets are the ones I want to keep lining by working.
VinerialBlumpkin11
They can't force you. That applies both ways. Job can't make you come in, and government can't make you stay home. Be a big boy and make
Your own choices.
L337TurboZ
I work at a car dealer and we are open during all this. Over 140 employees just in the main building. I'm a tech and have to work on cars >
becauseurwrong
Saw a commercial from some car maker saying if you buy & get covid19 you don't have to make payments for 6mos. Priorities lmao
aarrow37
I’m a service advisor. No change at all. Still work 12 hour shifts. Still being scheduled shit ass appts. They did give us hand sanitizer.
All day touching steering wheels etc. They deem it as a "essential" job.
Hybris51129
The way I think the government is seeing this if a doctor or other high priority persons car breaks down they need to be able to get it (1
fixed and if a part can only be ordered from a dealership in the case of a independent repair shop then again you are a important part (2
LizardEnterprises
I mean, New York's list of what is and is not exempted is pretty specific. Expect HobbyLobby to be fucking seized by the state here soon.
Indiana's is so ridiculously vague. Basically nothing is shut down except for sit-in dining and tattoo parlors. Every company has a loophole
EyeMaMeatPopsical
That’s because by God Cuomo killing it. He’s winning some new fans. Upstate New Yorker here and I am one of those new fans
Yeah I'm not a huge fan of Cuomo, but he's done alright with this. Well, except for slave-labor-hand-santiizer. That can fuck right off.
But like, still. Solid B+ effort.
ilovellamasmlemmlem
About time! Unfortunately, I'm a key worker so need to go to work. I imagine I'm gonna get stopped a lot by police.
Tiggerlen72
I got a letter to carry with me saying i'm essential, then just got notice today I can work from home soooo can't stop me from driving.
Moveslikejelly
I too am a key worker but if I get pulled over in going say, I'm going into work to make sure you get paid. I do payroll for the police ??
BobaFettApproves
Dad played the same card as a "chef" in the marines... 'we cook your food!!" """okokokok go ahead"""
PicardNeverHitMe
I think you mean bobbies
Nah, it's polis here is Scotland
Dares
oi m8 you got an Outsoid Loicense?
I'm actually Scottish so it'll be more like, "here hen, you goat a licence to be oot here?"
tone0508
I work in a freaking call centre and apparently I'm a "key worker". This governments a joke
lol same
supertrouperlightsaregonnafindme
My best friend works for walmart and got a letter today to use in case she gets stopped and questioned for being out
Yeah, looks like that's what I'm getting too. Thanks!
silrath
I’m teaching kids of keyworkers, dunno if they’ll keep that going
Bossco20
I had to fill out a form saying I'm an essential worker and keep it when I'm driving
restocloud
I wish I was a key worker. Bills will eventually need to get paid. Be safe
Thanks, you too!
sha13
I guess that the police won't be stopping anyone during commute hours or lunch break.
LuminousExpanse
don't be carrying any assault-style writing utensils or offensive manual labor tools
WhatTheHellIsGoingOnBob
I'm more than a little confused, I'm a taxi driver and I'm unsure if I'm key worker, yesterday I took 5 nhs staff home and a few into work.
Not 100% whether I'm needed tomorrow or not.
I wish I knew what to tell you. If your state has an Extention Office, they may have information. I hope you find out.
In the UK, we don't have states as such, but need clarification, quite a few nhs staff rely on us to get home.
UKallikat
get a letter from the hospital to show it.
honeybadgerdontgiveafucck
Perhaps give those staff your number & ensure any fares are for id NHS staff only...that way you’re doing a service & covered if stopped?
AnusReadyToBeRavaged
I'm not a fan of his but he's done everything right, just the public are ignorant and ignore the UK's guidance.
benreich
He pursued the wrong strategy and wasted 2 weeks in the most critical time. That massive blunder will cost lives.
andreyhimself
Just way too late. This could have been done weeks ago.
Redshirt101
He should have shut down the country 14 days ago like a lot of countries in the EU.
landofentrapment
That’s amazing. In the IS both politicians are not doing enough and too many people are being just dumb...
ThatWillBuffOut
The govt's messaging has been abysmal. Both the PM and Health Sec have publish articles behind paywalls.
You can argue that he waited too long for this. I certainly disagree with Trump's "I didn't act late, I acted early." propaganda BS
Svartlebee
I mean, his party and himself have repeatedly backed healthcare cuts. We are in a weaker position now due to past action.
Hence the reason I'm not a fan. I meant in this current situation. Regardless even without the cuts no nations healthcare is ready for this.
PiddlyDiddlyFuck
He took his time doing anything substantial though. Waited far too long to put this in motion.
thefrompleman
I mean, he waited several weeks too late to roll this out, and was relying on a "herd immunity" strategy up until fairly recently
DeputyChiefJudgeFish
You mean the herd immunity strategy that medical experts were advising him on? Would you rather he just listened to idiots on social media?
theincrediblehoek
I'm from across the pond, but from what I've seen in the news it seemed like he was promoting a herd immunity strategy up until now/recently
There were merits to this approach, which I disagreed with overall, but what he's done now is commit far too late to the curve flattening
Approach. If he was going to shut down the UK, the time to do so was much earlier. Not that it's bad to do now, but in 10-15 days you're
Going to be fucked because the disease was spreading rapidly without strong government advice to act differently
There was strong advice to act differently. I don't feel your news is up to date or accurate...
