"I could distinctly hear clapping in my village last night. "
Last night was the official the Identify a Tory in your area event.
I heard that in some places you're never further than 6ft away from a Tory. |

"I could distinctly hear clapping in my village last night. "
There was absolutely nothing in my area, I wish him well but he doesn’t deserve applause from the nation. |

I’m deep inside rural Tory country.

Before this crisis, the last public clapping Johnson did was in response to successfully blocking NHS pay rises for the same people he was applauding last week.
So, no, I wasn't clapping for fucking Boris. |

"Well there is obviously more Conservative voters about as the General Election proved."
No, there aren't. No it didn't. The Tories got 43.6% of votes cast.
Lots of people clap for those who are keeping Boris alive. That should be enough.
The fact he's ill with Covid 19 proves he isn't a special case. |

Yes it does. Yes it did. Which party got more than 43.6% ? Let me tell you. None. That's why Boris is PM. Not difficult really.
God bless Boris. |

But that means 56.4% didn't vote for the Tories and last time I looked 56.4 is bigger than 43.6

"Who clapped for him?
"
No. This was politics. A publicity stunt. Pretty objectionable when the party in power is demanding that people not use this crisis to score points.
News Thump summarises my position on this:
'“If you didn’t clap that means you want him to die” insist adults mistaking Boris for Tinkerbell
People who didn't clap for boris want him to die
If you didn’t applaud Boris Johnson last night then you’re basically a murderer, according to a worrying number of grown-ups today.
After a campaign to “clap for Boris Johnson” at 8pm on Tuesday night went “kind of OK” in some really, really posh neighbourhoods and few others, backers of the campaign took to social media to give everybody else a damn good telling off.
“If you don’t clap, he’ll die,” said Simon Williams, without so much as a hint of irony or satire.
“He’s a very sick man and you need to clap for him to make him better, no matter what you think of him. That’s how healing works.”
Sane person, Hayley Rice, said “Er, no.
“Let me make myself absolutely clear, I do not want Boris Johnson to die, I would much prefer him to get better, but whether or not I go outside to clap at an arbitrary hour has zero effect on that, because he’s not a fairy in a children’s story.
“He was two weeks late in putting us all into lockdown, which caused hundreds of additional deaths. If I’m two weeks late doing ANYTHING at work, I don’t get a round of applause for it – particularly if it kills someone.
“Then he went and shook hands with a bunch of people treating coronavirus patients in a typical show of bravado over common sense.
“That plus his past racism and attitude towards poor people in general means I just don’t want to stand up and applaud him. Sorry. I might go out and shout ‘You silly boy’ for a full minute.
“Again, just to be clear, THAT IS NOT THE SAME AS WANTING SOMEONE TO DIE.”
Simon Williams countered, “You want him to die? You should be ashamed of yourself.' |

Johnson is a psychopath - or at least a sociopath - who is unfit to sit in parliament, never mind lead the country. Bully, racist, abuser of women.
Tories have suddenly discovered the attraction of praising the NHS which they have de-funded in recent years and praising the nurses whose salary increase they voted down. Total scumbags.
But equally appalling were Blair, Brown and friends, who started the cult of the veterans - who came back from being sent into senseless wars with huge physical and psychological damage. Sent in to battle under-equipped and neglected on their return.
Do we really deserve the politicians we get?

Seemingly he is loved by everybody in the nation (which one is unspecified,) according to a writer in the Telegraph. Even for the Telegraph that’s a spin too far |

Yeah, as above. You could call this "ignorance", but it's a specific type that believes anything they're told by the right wing press and ignores fact and information. I guess that's what I meant by "susceptible to propaganda". |

So the Tories are slightly better than ‘fucking horrific’ alternative? I think Cummings based most of his campaign strategy on that assumption |

Nope. Just look at information and facts.
Also, not everyone who can see through propaganda is "left wing". , That's another falsehood. |
