In his Commons statement, Mr Johnson said there was "no alternative" but to introduce national restrictions in light of the latest coronavirus data.
The prime minister warned of the "medical and moral disaster" the nation faces if the NHS was allowed to be "overwhelmed". The PM said the government would continue to do everything it could to support businesses and jobs during lockdown.People will be told to stay at home except for specific reasons
I wonder if that bag is full of toilet paper 😂
ChrisClarksonMP No excess respiratory deaths in UK currently. Infection rates fell in majority of London boroughs last week. Remember Madoff?
Boris’s actions will be the manual for how not to respond to an emergency.
BBC .. the sad thing is you used to be a trusted media. Please rethink , research and look after the people who pay your wages.
Talks of morals after all the wars we’ve been involved in and dodgy arms sales get lost Boris
Boris Johnson on Morals, up there with the classics... Dominic Cummings on Ethics, and Donald Trump on Truth.
BBCPolitics Stop of Suffer, With Treatments Fast and ChineSe Virus, Ciao Useing Mask is a good personal help
Trust what you see with your own eyes, not what you read in the media. If Covid-19 were not being rammed down your throat incessantly every time you logged in online, or read a newspaper, or switched on the television, the chances are you wouldn't even know it was there.
BorisJohnson 4 week lockdown across England will inflict more misery, hardship, more family breakdowns, more economic & social problems, more mental health issues, more suicides etc. Fall out from all this will be catastrophic & far out way the awful deaths attributed to Covid19
Lying buffoon
Too many statements and opinions from politicians, falling out and making people angry. Needs statesmanship to inspire and encourage people to comply with Covid guidelines. Support the UK, stop playing politics.
Stupid and stupider he becomes. Imagine if a doctor tried every option before doing the safe one. But he is the head medic in a sense that he decides what treatment the nation takes.
Yes that is true, but once again we r 1 of the last to action things, what’s the point in having data from professionals if government does not implement things sooner rather than later. How about giving NHS pay rise for a change and value them properly Boris
BBCPolitics Boris should have acted sooner. He is incapable of learning a nd staying ahead of the curve. He doesn’t understand the word pro active except to steal our monies in the mega millions via corrupt contracts. He is a killer, a liar, a thief.
Monkey doesn't and cannot save the Jungle 😜. British people is facing the consequence of their choice.
The UK already has a moral disaster in the form of BorisJohnson
The moral disaster is Bojup! & the medical disaster is only that SO MANY are being SO BLINDLY STUPID & CHOOSING NOT TO SEE that THE REAL SCIENCE (not the BS they're giving the public!) CLEARLY SHOWS the PANICDEMIC is OVER!! & things AREN'T/HAVEN'T BEEN BAD AT ALL!!!
.....brought on by underfunding the NHS over the last ten years !
BorisJohnson is the personification of moral disaster.
A reminder for dummies....
' no apology ...a four week lockdown is better than the two week lockdown that SAGE & Starmer called for weeks ago because there will be a harder impact on the economy and thousands more will die.' ToryLogic
Tell the Scientists to get their fingers out do what they are being paid to do Find a Vaccine 💉, we can fly people to the Moon 🌙 we can give a person a new Heart ❤️ and many more great achievements but we can’t find a Vaccine for a Flu like Virus 🦠
Well restrict borders , test in entry and set up localised test and trace...
Makes you wonder what the fuck they've been doing all summer and why has it got this bad.
This war should be our one and only priority. Not the economy, not reopening things as soon as possible, we must win this war and win it now, just like Australia and New Zealand have done. We’ve been shown the path to victory, it is time for us to follow it to the end.
Absolute drivel. Cancer patients have already had their treatments cancelled, operations cancelled, no doctor, optician or dentist appointments., people dying from stroke & heart attacks at home. You lie, people will eventually awaken to the biggest trick in history.
This was 2018 where was then screaming for a lockdown The NHS has been underfunded by governments for decades Stop scaremongering the public & do your job & hold 10DowningStreet to account
The positive takeaway from the PM's clarion& a passionate call is that all hands have been inspired to be on deck with a view to tackling the 2nd the wave of the outbreak nationally. Honestly, we don't want to see our health and morality getting eroded by this invisible enemy.
A moral disaster that Roy Larner has not received a George Cross for gallantry in the face of terrorist murderers.
Total bollocks BorisJohnson is a corrupted fool it all defies logic greed and power usually do.This spineless arse would make a quick getaway like David_Cameron once the shit hit the fan that he is creating all for his own personal wealth the figures are big he must go.
UK Summary. Coronavirus (COVID-19) in the UK. Last updated on Monday 2 November 2020 at 4:00pm Deaths within 28 days of positive test. Daily 136 Total Deaths 46,853 Cases. People tested positive. Daily 18,950 coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) COVID19 UK
The moral disaster is the deliberate ruining of the country and millions of people’s lives by a load of corrupt cronies. BorisJohnson ought to be ashamed of himself but I’m not convinced he has a conscience, nor any of those around him.
Not to mention the financial ramifications for many facing a month without any income, enough to cause greater anguish and the further delay in treatments of other illnesses. Not denying COVID importance but we should not ignore everything else.
Will the BBC stop being the voice of the PM and start representing a non biased and informative position for once!?
Put your Masks on UK.
Resign you berk and take Serco track and trace with you. 66600 dead and you are still backed by Kinsboris!
What about the economic and mental disaster?
Garbage. Ridiculous predictions 🙄🙄🙄
We face that anyway with Boris in charge
Absolute Bullsh*t! He is talking complete rubbish. Time he was removed along with SAGE, Whitty, Ferguson et al. These people are trying to destroy the country We have to stop them!
well, he has a certain insight into moral disasters i would think
That was the case 2 months ago.....
