Nope, He gets a pass on this one. It makes sense. He will need rest, recovery and maybe more care away from the media. Downing street is the office with accommodation, not ideal for rest if there are alternatives. Cheap shot, tbh.

It's obviously a dig at the PM. I don't know the answer but if he is recovering (I saw it stated that 1 day in icu equates to a week recovering) does that mean that he cannot pass on the virus from his body internally (eg coughing etc)?

Social distancing will be encouraged wherever possible, from now on, until an effective treatment or vaccine is in place. By the end of April, some businesses will be allowed to reopen, travel bans will be lifted and the economy will, gradually, be allowed to get up and running. It has to or there may be a reduction of businesses, leading to massive unemployment. Home working will still be advised and we will he encouraged to download the NHS app which (like South Korea) allows for efficient contract tracing. This will be rolled out with the warning that, without it, we may face further lock downs. Initial deaths figure will be around 20k. The final death toll, over the next 12-24mths, before full vaccination has taken place, will he considerably higher.

10 Downing Street has 100 rooms apparently. I don’t think he would rest in the same building though. My mind has just conjured up a vision of him strolling the corridors in his slippers and dressing gown

Joking apart, he does need to rest.

Sure, he could be in Downing St, but he has more privacy in Chequers and I think that the real reason why he is there. Don't you think its unusual to go from ICU to discharge in 48 hours. The public messaging about his treatment is a bit odd to me.

I was treated in hospital for pneumonia in my early 20s, probably in the best physical condition ever. After my discharge I was still wiped out for weeks. Boris is overweight mid 50s, he smoked and I'm sure he liked to party. I think he's going to need plenty of rest and being away from the glare of the media allows the messaging to be controlled much better.

You are missing the point.

It matters not where we would WANT to stay , we don't have a choice and yet the very person who has decided this and told us not to do it is doing the total opposite.

If I had two homes, came out of Hospital and decided to drive to my second home because it was a nicer house to rest in and the police caught me on the way I could potentially be told to go back / fined, or both.

Erm, because it is a medical reason like I said. Once you have recovered you have to be discharged and go somewhere. I doubt anyone suggesting that he should be returned to rest mere meters away from his job, one of the most responsible and stressful their is, would do so themselves if they had somewhere more suitable.

Seems as if a lot of people don’t actually pay attention to what is said officially regarding the restrictions.

Patients will convalesce at the field hospitals set up in various places to free up hospital beds. Some of these should’ve been used to quarantine people at the first signs of Covid and for those coming off flights.

It is suitable to live in for most of the year when he is not using his second home for weekends away. You are not risking your health by living in a self contained flat in Downing street be that a two bedroomed flat with half an acre of garden in No .10 or a four bedroomed one in No.11

I agree, he needs to get well before he can go back to work, but surely he can get well in perfectly adequate accommodation where he lives best part of the year? Unless obviously people know different and it is a hovel

Its not a straight forward issue of a second home being used. Its totally different from a holiday home being used. 48 hours after being released from an ICU he is discharged from hospital. I would say he still needs a high level of medical care and will have to be monitored in case of relapse. This way they can control the message much better. Information would leak if he was in downing st.

And separate to the above, Boris isn't 'one of us'. Don't expect him to pretend to be.

Reply privately (closed, thread got too big)

By *abs..Woman over a year ago

I genuinely don’t feel that there is anything wrong in him going where he has and I’m a stickler for the rules. Be it number 10 or the flat at number 11, it is still associated with work and I suspect he has been strongly advised to keep away from work. Too much temptation if he stays there. We don’t even know if he had any choice in the matter.

He was taken one hour away from the hospital. He hasn’t travelled the length of the country and it’s not a holiday.

I do the understand the point people are making of course but I see it as I’ve said.

Could his condition be leaked out of chequers or is it just Downing street that that would happen?

I doubt anyone travelling on their way from bring discharged from intensive care would be fined. It's a medical reason, which is allowed.

No me neither

As for deflecting, you have ignored what I said about it being within the rules for him to travel and instead choosing to make a random and unfounded claim that his accommodation is a hovel. You also accused another poster of clutching at straw so if I am deflecting, so are you.

I have made plenty of points and joined the debate whereas you, and others are just on a witch hunt.

As for the rest of your post you claim I have avoided, I ave already addressed it by saying that chequers is a more suitable place to recover and that I doubt anyone would move into their work accommodation after coming out of icu, if they had an better alternative. I also pointed out it is allowable within the rules but you seem to be ignoring that in favour of trying to make out I am not debating.

Its more likely to leak from downing street. There's a greater number of people working in and around downing street, both civil servants and govt members. The media would have their sources there and god forbid it might leak that a consultant from St Thomas is doing house calls or he has a private nurse.

I just see you saying downing st is good enough to live in.

Downing st might be more than adequate facilities wise but the problem is the environment within. I would imagine there is quite a lot going on there with it being central to the operation of the government in the middle of the biggest crises in modern times. Being stuck in a room adjacent to that is hardly going to help him rest and recuperate from his visit to ICU.

He can and should be somewhere more appropriate and the rules allow him (and us) to do it. Even if they didn't, as he is the leader you cant claim double standards as it is exceptional circumstances.

You did see me say it is an adequate home to stay in yes. He self isolated there. Staff didn't enter his private quarters.

You also saw me saying it was a hovel, which wasn't what I said.

The rules don't say we can use a second home for medical reasons...it says one of the reasons we can go out is if you have an appointment for medical reasons.

Other people may think their reasons are exceptional circumstances to want to drive to their second homes but I don't think that would wash with the Police.They have carpeted people for it

For clarity, I personally don't care where he is staying to recuperate , he has a country to run so let him just go get well enough and then get back when he is OK.

It says

"We are currently working on a number of potential options around Devon for creating additional residential care facilities for those with health and care needs being discharged from hospital in case existing care home capacity becomes insufficient."

So I am guessing those people have no where to go, so are being moved to Hotels rather than bed blocking until homes become available

Other people setting of to their second home are not the PM, however if they where coming out of hospital after being in icu they will be allowed to relocate if needed. As shown by another members example of people being put into hotels.

People like the op are exactly the type of peso / people that make angry.

First he has just recovered from losing his life(yes I know like lots of others, and others that are not as lucky( yes I know it’s boris’ fault))

Second, instead of always looking at the negative just realise we are in a situation that is unprecedented. Looking for the smallest of potential things to moan really make people silly.

Thirdly, to many people have to much of a sense of self importance. Yes if I die my friends and family would miss me... I hope. But no one would care. If the pm died it’s clearly a different situation. Please explain why you think you should be treated the same as him? The only thing done people would do is see the death of a high profile person like him as a cheap shot at politics.

I’ve always thought it but it’s abundantly clear political followers are one hundred time’s worse than football supporters, and deep down horrible people. The thing s I read on here and twitter (I know) shock me. I know they shouldn’t. Always looking to score cheap points instead of looking at things clearly and logically.

I generally have no time for politics or politicians but I think the government has done ok in the circumstances. It to easy to sit on the outside locked in your house, second facts, push opinions as facts and criticise when you don’t know the whole story.

I’ve bored myself now...

That link didn't work but I think I have found what you were trying to show me.

The way I am reading it is, if you are in Hospital at the moment you will be discharged with the care and support you need to a bed in the community. The care provided will be free of charge for a period of time to support your recovery. So basically they are still looking after you but they can't do it at the Hospital anymore because they are freeing up spaces in the Hospital for Covid patients which isn't the same as giving a green light for people to travel to your second home

Now maybe Boris is in the same boat and needs care while at home so rather than send him to a care home (no one would expect that to happen ) they have sent help home with him instead. If it was me and I could get away with it I would pick a bigger pile in the Country rather than a city pad to get well in, but we wouldn't be able to do that.

I know of nurses who moved out of their home before the lock down yes but that is for obvious reasons

It's probably better for the country that he's gone to this location. London pollution is generally really terrible and not conducive to good lung health. Whilst driving and other pollution sources are down, it will still likely be much worse in central London than outside. The environment is also better suited to convalescence. I lived in the west-end for a long time and health gets suppressed there.

"It is important that our hospitals are ready to look after

hospital care. Due to these pressures, once you no longer

need care in hospital, as decided by the health team

looking after you, you will be discharged. You will not have

a choice over your discharge, but it is always our priority

to discharge people to a safe and appropriate place.

In most cases this will be

to your home. You might

Take note of the parts "it is always our priority

to discharge people to a safe and appropriate place" and "Your needs and discharge arrangements will be discussed with you"

You are still failing to see the distinction between people going to their second home because they want to, and people being discharged to somewhere more suitable to recover after being in intensive care. One is necessary, the other isn't.

Yeah the same sort of thing I read

It applies to us lot who maybe have no where to go while being sent away from hospital because of covid. they will provide a bed in a safe environment.

Non of this applied to Boris as he has a home to go to to receive care.

No matter how many times people say it, Downing Street is a suitable place for that and he could have gone there, he chose not to.

Downing street is the centre of government. Expecting someone to rest in the middle of continuous government operations when it their job is to be in charge of it all is absurd. A job which is one of the most stressful and responsible in the country during the most demanding point in recent times.

No matter how many times you say it, downing street is not a suitable place to recover. The accommodation and facilities might be more than adequate but the environment is not. It could cause untold stress, anxiety, lack of sleep all of which would hinder recovery. They may even have contributed to him ending up in hospital in the first place as we know he continued to work when self isolating.

I imagine there will be living quarters at no. 10 and no. 11 and Boris lives at no. 10. He is flouncing a rule he made to the rest of the UK. Just shows he has double standards.

Are people honestly complaining about him not choosing to recuperate at 10 Downing Street? The ability of the British public to whinge and moan about every little thing is truly astounding.

It’s not people whinging. He’s blatantly breaking his own rule. It’s double standards. Why can’t people see this? "

No it isn't. It's not a case of someone deciding they would rather live by the seaside for a bit so uprooting their family and taking them to a small village where they put extra strain on the limited resources they have whilst possibly spreading the virus further.

This is simply a man who is recovering having been in ICU and not choosing to recover in one of the most stressful places in the country. How can you not see that?

This bit I agree with you, you could see in his videos that he wasn't getting any better and then when he stood to clap for the NHS on the doorstep he looked even worse.

I think he probably should have rested up quicker than he did rather than work when he was in isolation. Although the way this Covid seems to happen is a random thing, some people get it mild and some it takes it's toll even if he had rested instead of working he may well have still got it as bad as he did

Watch his speech from three weeks ago. People must stay in their own homes. Boris is flouncing rules he made. Double standards. It’s hard for me to trust a PM who does that.

I suppose it must be hard to step away. He seems to have a sense of duty and responsibility and feel obligated to do his job. He wont be able to switch off and rest if he is stuck right next to the action. Sending him to chequers is the obvious solution.

You are missing the key bit. People must stay at home, unless absoloutly necessary. Recovering from intensive care is quite necessary, esp when your job is PM.

People can leave the house for work, shopping, exercise, walking the dog, medical reasons, looking after the vulnerable etc. Have you left the house in the last three weeks?

Isn't his fiancee due to give birth really soon? Has he gone to Chequers so he's there and will do his paternity leave there also?

I thought he was in isolation in a flat above number 11, not in number 10?

I'd guess he can't go to his proper home as his ex wife is living there, possibly not good for his recovery or his current relationship

I suppose then, he didn't know that he would be in danger from the virus, I don't see it as double standards, it's not like he's just nipping off for a jolly,at his country house, not like the Scottish minister.

Maybe OP has formed this opinion based on the fact that the PM & his fiancè have moved to Chequers

Bingo. He is obviously leading by example."

Cheap shot at a man who is trying his best in a difficult situation and who has just come out of intensive care. I think rest and recovery are completely necessary and allowed,he's not travelling between holiday homes just on a weekend or when the weathers nice.

An absolutely uneducated and frankly selfish view.. one of which we can only hope you read somewhere like the daily fail and jumped on the bandwagon, as it would be disappointing to think this is your own view.

He didn’t say that people coming out of intensive care couldn’t go elsewhere to rest and recover though. They are talking about moving others out of hospitals to other places when they are out of immediate danger so why not him.

You don't, no.

What I do know is when coming out of hospital nurses ask do you have somewhere to go and someone to look after you. They want to make sure you are likely to be looked after and have somewhere to rest your head. As long as you have somewhere they will let you out whether that is a one bedroom flat on the 24th floor of a block of flats or a much bigger residence. People can and do recuperate in both scenarios

Im sorry but this is not the case. You seem to completely disregard the fact that he has been in intensive care and tested negative prior to his release from hospital.

This is not one person traveling from one home to another simply because be wants to. Explain the difference between him travelling to 10 Downing Street from hospital and travelling to Chequers from hospital. Its one journey.

If it was one journey how did he manage to do a video message to the NHS from Downing street after coming out of hospital?"

So we are now criticising the bloke for addressing the nation despite still being incredibly unwell?

There is nothing the guy could do that would make you happy.

Most of the flack seems to come from a perceived lack of funds for the NHS leaving them unprepared. If they ploughed cash into the NHS you would complain about the state of education. If they ploughed money into that then you would complain about the crime rates.

It must be exhausting always looking for something to challenge.
