Taking the piss.

Re: Taking the piss.

Sage predicted 250,000 deaths at the time apologies if it’s the incorrect documentation, perhaps you could post the reasons for the initial lockdown and figures quoted ( I’m sure you are acutely aware of what I was trying to say )

A risk assessment would have been undertaken, ( even something like have you had a cold in the last 28 days, are any family members displaying symptoms or high risk etc ).


Up to 100 people were at the party, not withstanding bar staff, security, and they would have been in contact with many taxi drivers taking them to and from the venue.

The people who attended would then have gone home to parents , children, grandparents etc.

The party held is not my concern ( as I wasn’t there ) but it appears that they were less concerned about the dangers to Covid compared to what they told the public to be at the time. I wonder why ?

As I said it was Neil Ferguson's Imperial College Advisory Group that came up with the 250k figure and was their estimate of what would happen if no restrictions were applied. Obviously they were hence the Sage documentation estimating 50k in the the 1st wave (if people paid poor regard to the restrictions). A factor reduction as a consequence of restrictions in plain to most but not it seems all.

I just don't understand the risk assessment point. These were people who made the rules and were in daily briefings and warnings to the general populace about their infringement. A number would have already had covid including Boris Johnson. These were people who thought themselves above the law.

I presume that your final point is a projection of the it's nothing more than a cold narrative on the day that we reach 175,000 deaths with Covid.

The reasons for their flagrant law breaking and presumed ignoring of possible risk assessments?

A: They're Tories and they believe themselves to be teflon and above the law.

B: They're Tories and they believe themselves to be teflon and immune to Covid.

C: They're libertarians and the Devil can take the hindmost.

Re: Taking the piss.

Some coming out in support of Bodger saying give him a break he nearly died. Does anyone really believe he was at deaths door? He wasn’t incubated and was up and out of hospital in around 4 days. Big lump of lying lard.

Re: Taking the piss.

There is no way that party ( or any others ) would have taken place without a thorough risk assessment before hand. Clearly the P.M’s advisors, medical staff , bodyguards, thought he and other high ranking government members were ok to attend.

There was no vaccine at the time either .

How many times in that chronicle did Bodger's cronies mention he was in "good spirits"? Did they mean whisky?

The blogger strikes again

"The May 20 party was first alluded to in a blog by the Prime Minister's former advisor Dominic Cummings on Friday."

I have suggested before the Labour should employ him to ensure they get a romping 80 seat victory the lad has form into tapping into the countries thinking .

Fair point! I feel I'm starting to love Bodger now and I'd like to keep him in post till the next General Election.

Whilst I have some sympathy with that view politically it is far less important to me than ridding the country of this cancerous Prime Minister as soon as possible.

Re: Taking the piss.

They broke the rules because they knew they were bullshit

They broke the rules because they knew the people at the party would not be at risk. (The P.M’s Personal protection would have vetoed it otherwise)

Dunno about that. I have a relative who used to work in the Protection unit of The Met. He was trained in armed security not dispensing advice on medical risks.
