Same as he does every year, armchair captain hindsight who knew everything was going to happen and he would have done it better, but on GBNews instead of on twitter.
Its quite hilarious, he has this fake pub set up where he meets gammons and pretends everything is going well, lying out his arse all the while.

:allears: Cheers, looking forward to his bollocks filtering into the mainstream when the leadership contest kicks off.

I think we've approached the end-New Labour stage of this Conservative era where they've achieved their major ideological goals and the only successors are party insider freaks running on fumes

To be fair to Mordaunt, not that I should be: she also sarcastically said "I always pose for newspapers in swimsuits" and that she didn't like being patronised. She definitely doesn't like people defining women solely by their bodies.

Mr President, the physical reality of Prime Minister Corbyn is beyond your range of apprehension. If you'll just put on these PINKOVISION glasses...

Pretty sure they were talking about having to vote for Graham Jones rather than Jeremy Hunt.

Yeah, it's Graham, who shat the bed after Corbyn was elected leader. Which was also the time I started attending CLP meetings, so that was fun. He's used this hilarious joke in a second tweet today as well, he's very proud of his poo poo take.

Is this the same guy that said we'd get 37+ by Wednesday and was repeatedly told his model was wrong because it completely excludes ground moisture or something?

edit: Checked replies, he's picking the least likely high extreme, which is as likely as a cold snap.

This explains it. It's the first time 40+ has come up for the UK as an outlier. It's not a prediction of what will actually happen next week. It shows the direction we are headed though.

Yeah looking at some other stuff it does seem like the model overestimates the likelihood of extreme temps due to poor handling of ground moisture evaporation (or something). Terrifying as a possibility tho

I lurk in a lot of weather groups, and while the experts there were dismissive and mocking of the earlier reports of 40C+ in the UK, they are getting increasingly nervous as more models indicate a push in that direction. Most are saying that they don't think it will hit 40C this time around, but they are saying this with less certainty than they were in previous days.

It's going to be very hot though, so please check up on vulnerable friends, relatives and neighbours.

you say that but again, that late 80s heatwaves coincided with it being incredibly easy for retired people to immigrate to Australia if thier kid had gone over as a £10 pome. Tens of thousands of the parents of boomers decided they wanted some more of this sun thing and permanently parked themselves on the Melbourne beaches for the rest of their days. They earned themselves the name "leather sofas".
