Oh dear...All (well, most) of the usual suspects have crept out of their hidey holes.You denigrate my post but, like most people who voted for Boris, you seem unwilling to acknowledge that he is a man out of his depth. You have only to look at his unwillingness to appear before the public either before the election or after it. He is only appearing now because he can’t wheedle his way out of appearing. I will confess, however,  he has enough sense to have experts standing either side of him to answer the difficult questions. “I thought that he looked bloody tired TBH as would anyone trying to be on top of this 24/7.”The reason he looked knackered the last couple of days is because he doesn't know, so can't bluster his way forward. Probably Dominic told him to look tired so it looks like he is working hard. All those chats with Trump must be wearing him out.“My best friend (of over fifty years) works in Westminster and says that ministers are all 'flat out' at the moment (as one would hope and expect)”?So they should be. If I was in their position I would expect to work hard as well. It is, after all, what I would be paid for. If I wasn’t working flat out and was not tired in this situation I wouldn’t be doing my job.“Pathetic thread”? Really? You are more than happy to criticise Corbyn but when it comes to your precious Johnson it’s hands off time“A truly obnoxious and asinine post, and completely unnecessary”.  Really? Justification please. (fwiw, if that’s all you have to say then so is your post).“A rather silly post. We have never been in a situation like this before.” So? I don’t follow your logic, if any….“What an appalling post from OP”. Why?“It's such a shame that your hatred of anything vaguely Conservative clouds your comments and judgement. Could you do any better in these dire and unchartered circumstances ?” I thought Vanessa’s post entirely reasonable and very much to the point. Not that I know Vanessa but I’m sure she couldn’t do any worse – and she isn’t PM.“Another stupid post.” Just because you don’t agree? Please apply a bit of logic to your comment…. “Apparently IR35 changes postponed for a year.  I should think so. Freelancers, contractors and other self-employed got enough to worry about for the moment, as have those who employ them.  Good decision.  Now they need to drop it altogether, or at least make it fit for purpose”Agree though not sure what you mean by the last sentence
