As much as I don't agree with how Boris Johnson has handled everything, I wish everyone with a serious medical condition the best of outcomes and a speedy recovery.

Boris and the other senior tories wish everyone with a serious medical condition to be forced back to work with no disability income, so gently caress 'em.

Setting aside the ethics of rejoicing in his death, from a purely tactical point of view it would be catastrophic for the left if Johnson did die from this. He'd hit instant martyrdom, for elections to come his ghost would be carted out to remind people the time 'the tories died for this country', they'd probably try and get statues of him erected.

Again I really don't think this is true, this is literally his own loving fault and it's going to pale in comparison to the, like, half the loving country at this rate who's going to lose family from it.

I hope Boris Johnson gets to continue working through a sharp pressing weight on his chest, freakish bouts of deep, wheezy coughing that still pop up weeks later and the niggling fear that his lungs might never get back to normal function.

Nah, Wizard Master is a worse person than everyone else. If you don't rejoice when someone as unadulteratedly evil as Boris suffers, you are a soulless monster.

You can wish whatever you loving want for peoples health, although I think you're lying anyway. What did you do in the ballot box, what were your thoughts on healthcare then?

I'm not denying the state we are in is his fault but I don't believe that's how it would be remembered in history by the majority of the public if he died. Half the papers are already trying to sell him as the reincarnation of Churchill.

The nazis weren't churchill's fault, though. There is no intrinsic reason why people are going to sympathise with the moron who killed their families because he also loving died.

The 'Boris the martyr' narrative does run headfirst into the reality of PM Raab, though. It's not like the Tories are going to suddenly become more competent and human after Johnson dies.

Oh, how do you find out if you're on the list? I self-reported, but for the 'rare condition' reason which I expect practically guarantees I'll get struck off by someone who doesn't know what it is.
