Who was the tory that drove hundreds of miles during lockdown to a castle to see if his eyes worked properly?

comedy highlight of covid for me

Aye that was ace. The pure brass neck of his excuses given on a live statement from the Downing Street gardens had to be admired.

That was Dominic Cummings. 

I'm not even sure he's a Tory...just a devious, rat faced cunt who is out for himself. 

So aye, a Tory.

They were doing fine until Sturgeon's natural conservatism and control freeky-deekery got the better of her, and we had a totally unnecessary and ridiculously stupid lockdown at the end of 2021....all because a harmless covid variant was discovered in South Africa. 

It was compounded by the fact that despite pubs being closed and football postponed, people were allowed to attend church. 

Sturgeon said all along that she would 'follow the science'. In reality it turned out that power-crazed whackjobs like Leitch were controlling people's lives in a way unknown since 1945. 

It was at that point that I left the SNP (along with thousands of others). 

You don't know how many lives would have been lost or ruined without lockdown.Many other countries were doing the same thing.

Struggling to remember this bit. I remember when churches were first allowed back we had very reduced numbers allowed, to be massively spaced out, no singing etc.

I don't remember the rules for churches being any different from other indoor meetings.

Yeah me too but think there was something about churches suing the Scottish govt?Then again they might have sued them for not having a lockdown and heaps of elderly churchgoers dying from covid....

Some churches brought a case against the gov saying that closing churches infringed the right to worship. The court upheld their point, but as it was after the COVID restrictions had ended it was pretty academic.

Could it be that he was just loving being on off the ball every week? They loved having him on. As opposed to him being some sort of evil cunt who enjoyed the covid nonsense.

Thats the vibe i got.

They did almost exactly the same throughout.

Part of the reason for that is Cosgrove is a rabid Nationalist and would do anything to kiss Queen Nicolàs arse sickening- a fucking dentist holding himself out to be an expert . The scheming and lying that went on to further their personal agenda at our cost is criminal. They should be prosecuted but since they have control the lord advocate that can’t happen until we get a Labour government and they get to work untangling years of corrupt practice.

Hilarious but they get away with this stuff.

Rumour is that while in the area testing his eyes, he not only visited a castle but popped in to visit a nearby company which was being given millions of pounds of Covid money.

Must have been nice to be able to say hi to his sister too at the same time- she is a senior exec at the aforementioned company.

🤔

Horrible, nasally snake of a specimen, Leitch is.

All of them crooked, venomous bastards at the daily briefings were so quick to condemn the city of Aberdeen and AFC in August 2020, lock down the city, ban AFC from playing games for an unnecessary period of time, and, now we discover they were deviously considering to dock us points as a consequence of their overzealousness and hatred of our club.

Treacherous reptilian cunts the lot of them. Shoot them dead.

This is my favourite post of the year so far.

Ah.. Dominic Cummings. Isn’t he the living breathing example of the word narcissist?

They were. I couldn't go to the fitba in an open air stadium but you bible bashers could all go and worship your imaginary sky lord.

No he's the kind of guy whom you'd hoped the civil service was full of scheming self serving ultimately harmless little arses like Sir Humphrey Appleby but in fact you now know is actually full of self serving dangerous little arseholes like this guy.

1. I'm not on holiday 

2. it's slow and I love it. Just beginning the day with a gourd of maté. 

Thanks for taking this bizarre interest in me.

You mean this Pennington?

Thomas Hugh Pennington, CBE, FRCPath, FRCP (Edin), FMedSci, FRSE is emeritus professor of bacteriology at the University of Aberdeen.

Ignored by Sturgeon for political reasons Pennington?

As for the sky lord, it's not what I call him but it'll do. Will continue to worship him.

How is Argentina in the summertime? Had any decent empanadas?

Quite enjoyed his weekly updates on Off The Ball for a while but the longer it went on he gave an air of someone who was enjoying Covid far too fucking much for my liking.

I don't know the guy obviously but he seemed to get off on the misery of it all after a while. 

He said we'd never be allowed on Supporters buses ever again 

It’s weird as he also seemed to think we’d never have full crowds or any kind of normality again. Guy was depressing as fuck. Every new variant was a source of more misery.

This is what I thought too. He seemed to revel in his new found fame and power, not the only one but a prominent one. The glee in which he informed people their wedding would be cancelled was weird.

Maybe he’d met the bride before.
