The state of humanity, laid bare in this thread. People wishing someone ill, people celebrating the death of someone.
Johnson is a self-centred moron, his policies will damage me personally and are damaging me personally. His Government's arrogance on labelling people "unskilled" has come to bite them on their arses.
But, wishing him dead? I agree he is not a pleasant human being, but I live in hope that this crisis has refocused his mind, and others as we get out of this crisis.
Thatcher had an incredibly detrimental effect on my town. But, if I celebrated her death I would be worse than anything she did.
Rise above it. You're looking stupid.
Johnsons girlfriend is an environmentalist which gives me some hope, and if the NHS saves his life, and that of many others, hopefully him and his party will realise the value of it, instead of cheering when they manage to block a pay rise for the nurses.

We can hope. If they revert back to type (and they would be incredibly stupid to do so) - it will be political suicide.
We also have to appreciate we will have to pay more in taxes for the NHS and we'll all be paying the price of underfunding for generations to come. But, that's our fault because we have, collectively, always voted against tax rises.
Next week let's all have a clap for that working class hero Iain Duncan Smith ?
He oversaw the savage welfare cuts under the tories in the last ten years , driving up the use of food banks despite us being one of the richest countries in the world
And many sick and disabled people have been driven to suicide due to the stress of fit for work tests
If we are going to clap boris , let's clap him
And Sir Jacob Rees Mogg
I think every tuesday we should have clap a tory at 8pm
We should clap everyone we encounter during our daily 30-minute government prescribed exercise period of walking round the block on the off chance they might be a key worker, Tory, a good karaoke singer or simply for being a fellow human.
I wouldn't be adverse to spending three hours on the doorstep each night from 6pm applauding like a sea lion might. 20 minutes for NHS staff, then 10 minutes each for postal workers, prison officers, supermarket staff, lorry drivers, police officers, farmers, utility workers, traffic wardens and more besides.
People clapping boris who removed us from the european wide early response programme for virus control , despite warnings from the NHS ?
His government refused to take part in the offer from europe to participate in the joint procurement for urgent medical supplies like masks , ventilators etc .....putting our nurses and patients at risk
Clapping for that ?
People voting tory who are now clapping our " brave nurses " to save them forgetting it has been tory NHS cuts over the last ten years that have put so much pressure on front line staff .....dont these fecking idiots read the news ? Well if you did vote for tory cuts and you fall ill , dont blame those of us who didnt .
Its boris Johnson's watch now and if the NHS pull him through good on em but let's not forget the five year old boy who died recently or a leading heart consultant at the heath .
Johnson is just another statistic of this awful virus , a virus he and his government have prepared for badly and starved the NHS of resources to fight it in the first place
Keep safe bluebirds
The only mitigation I can see is that person x on ccmb wishing a politician dead is extremely unlikely to have an impact, and in this case will only be said by those who can see that 130,000 people died unnecessarily due to austerity (David Cameron adviser, Steve Hilton said so) where people such as Boris did have an impact. In this way I don't think you celebrating Thatcher's death makes you worse than her, she had power and you don't, but think you have lost right to claim to be better.
Still, a left-wing position is being anti-capital punishment and seeking humane and responsible punishment instead. The humane and responsible punishment Boris hopefully has in his future is majority realising what a terrible professional he is (journalist as well as politician), Boris having to own consequence of his bad politics and being voted out asap of the job he felt entitled to.
Stepping away from politics to the real world, considering how awful bad symptoms and death through covid-19 is I wouldn't be wishing it on anyone.

Coronavirus: Mayor apologises for PM 'deserves this' comments
Sheila Oakes.jpg
Sheila Oakes admitted she "made a mistake"
A town mayor has apologised for saying Prime Minister Boris Johnson "completely deserves this" after he was admitted to intensive care.
Sheila Oakes, who is the mayor of Heanor in Derbyshire, made the comments below a Facebook post about the news.
The Amber Valley Labour Group said it had withdrawn the whip, meaning she is no longer a Labour councillor.
Ms Oakes has since apologised and accepted she "made a mistake".
In response to a post asking people to say a "little prayer" for the prime minister on Monday night, Ms Oakes had written: "Sorry, he completely deserves this and he is one of the worst PMs we've ever had."
Do people seriously think that if boris does recover hes going to have a Lazarus moment and invest in the NHS , public services and education ?
If he gets through and once this virus is over the tories will still be free market capitalists
Boris Johnson failed to take Covid-19 seriously. Boris Johnson contracted Covid-19. Boris Johnson was admitted to the ICU where no doubt he got preferential treatment.
So what about the people that Boris Johnson infected? And what about the people who weren't getting as much attention because he was in the ICU? What about all the people that suffered because of the austerity imposed by the Tory government which he now leads?
The governments of both the US and the UK have been advised on the severity of this disease since the beginning of January. But tough-guy Boris chose to ignore it. And Trump said it was a hoax? But I'm scum of the earth?
You're a slave. You should be ashamed of yourself.
Why is it that species that live under rocks always seem to get a bit of a hard time? Woodlice live under rocks,I wonder if they say to each over 'Go on, open your front door and **** off back into your house' When they're feeling morally superior but just don't have the words to express it?
