Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

A lot of that occurs on Pointless. “What a great answer, but I’m afraid that it’s incorrect”.

People who openly disapproved of everything Boris Johnson stood for a fortnight ago filling social media with, "Oh, but fellow human being! Oh, poor little unborn baby! Oh, I don't agree with his politics but I wouldn't like him to come to any harm."

[My only interest in his survival is that I would hate any of my colleagues in health care to have to live with the knowledge that they'd failed to save the life of a serving prime minister.]

[V'rap - I wonder why he has to be treated by the "finest doctors" according to the BBC. As opposed the "normal" doctors. Who are mostly, in my experience pretty good.]

[Admittedly I haven't wished him well on social media because I'm pretty sure America's comprehensively demonstated that thoughts and prayers are fuck all use to people you don't know]

[I accept in theory that other people may, in good faith, be able to see the acts that someone has committed or sanctioned as somehow separate from the person they are. I don't have that much imagination. I'm just seeing a bad man who is at present an ill bad man.]

[I wonder if a load of eminent professors have been wheeled out of their ivory towers to attend to him in person instead of him suffering the indignity of being looked after by nurses and junior doctors. It would SO serve him right if that was the case :) ]
