You were unable to determine the meaning, because of an obvious typo?

 

Oh dear :?

 

Your standard M.O, avoid the substance, and pick at the edges... I'm surprised you didn't have to "my bold" it :hihi:

 

Thanks for proving my point... again! :thumbsup:

I suggest that you look outside of this Forum.Lets start with the Prime Minister who has a well documented history of disrespect for others and is hardly a role model for the general population.

He does have a point though.

It’s just the sweeping and totally wrong generalisation that all Tories and Brexiteers are gentlemen and gentlewomen,unlike the opposition.

It's been disclosed today that the hereditary peer, Lord Bethell replaced his mobile phone before it could be searched for information relevant to £85m of Covid deals that are subject to a legal challenge. Bethell said the mobile phone had broken, after deals were done, and after he was told his mobile phone would be searched for documents relating to this case.

Lord Bethell is already under investigation by the Information Commissioner’s Office over the use of private emails for government business, prompted by revelations that his former boss Matt Hancock was using a private account at the height of the pandemic.

Bethell has previously faced calls for his resignation after the Guardian revealed that a number of emails had been copied into his private email account. His address was copied into at least four official exchanges relating to a businessman who was attempting to get government contracts during the pandemic.

Bethell has told the Lords “In terms of the use of private email can I just reassure members that I have read the ministerial code, I have signed the ministerial code and I seek to uphold it in everything I do.”

Just like his 'honourable friend', Boris Johnson.

What does " jumped the shark " mean ?

When something is devoid of ideas and throws anything out there to boost popularity. 

 

In fairness I could have used a better phrase but I was slightly dumbstruck on how Johnson is trying to convince people the wholesale destruction of entire communities was a good thing. Its like he thinks we're all stupid.

It comes from the TV series Happy Days were they were so desperate for ideas they had one of the characters water ski jump over a shark.

BBC News - Thatcher helped climate by closing coal mines, says Boris Johnson
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-58107009

 

Next week, Boris will claim to have sorted out elderly care by chucking covid infected old people into care homes like a grenade.

Praising Thatcher in Scotland is so going to boost his popularity and help reinforce the union north of the border.

 

He's an absolute gift to Nicola Sturgeon.
