Bar Stewards?

[davebro]

Booing Boris and Carrie outside the memorial service. Is London a different country from the rest of England?

[naomi24]

It says more about them than Boris and Carrie. Morons.

[Peter Pedant]

modern days I am afraid

Boris: I have been convicted of something I didnt do - I am innocent ! Any other requests ?

The crowd - yeah boo - get off!

Boris, horribile mobile, faex mundi ( Latin for poss off you proles)

[Peter Pedant]

Morons to elect him - never a truer word.

[gulliver1]

..."Bar Stewards" ,,,,if you mean Boris a Carrie.
I agree with you.

[davebro]

And why is the BBC subtitles service so useless - at the time of the Jubilee how the F can the show "Queen" as "green".

[Peter Pedant]

Boris can do what he likes
and the proles have to keep quiet and touch their forelocks as of yore

but no one told them

[Peter Pedant]

go for it goo-lee !

The johnson-jollies will never see the light

[davebro]

I don't feel that way about Boris - I don't think he has an air of superiority or entitlement. He may be promoted above his ability but then so many people are & still manage to make a go of it. Maybe he is badly advised or not inclined to listen to advice.

[Peter Pedant]

The beeb are quite snooty about their auto-generated subtitles and profess to being "tired of answering why they are so bad."

fluffy ( the interviewer silly!) did not retort - "well why dont you do something about it then?"

I liked best
Prince william is a hizbo-llahi ( terroristen, you know?)
when it should have been - Prince William and his brother Harry
hur hur hur

Dave, I think they use an electronic word recognition system that interprets what’s being said almost instantly - and sometimes ‘mishears’. It’s clearly not tuned to correct bad grammar.

[Peter Pedant]

// Maybe he is badly advised or not inclined to listen to advice.//
no that was Prince Andrew

Boris married the woman he was er kissing...

ter daah !

[Peter Pedant]

The auto - gen programs do a lot by context ( list of words most likely to follow)

and for Queen's jubilee, it far more likely to be green jubilee

and as for Prince WIlliam, instead of a brother named harry, it is far more likely to be associated with hisbo-allahi ( arabic for party-of-god but the computer probably knows that already)

[actually seriously folks ( thx to David Frost] I am astounded they can get these progz to work at all. The French ones arent bad]

[FatticusInch]

Maybe it’s not a bad idea that they get a sense of the public’s depth of feeling against them?
Royalists are fiercely loyal, they don’t want a serial liar and his child bride sullying her Majesty’s big day.
They should have taken a leaf out of Andrew’s book and made their excuses.

Is London a different country from the rest of England ?

You mean it isn't!

[naomi24]

Fatty, this may come as a surprise to you but you don’t speak for the public. You only speak for yourself. And yet another surprise - many agree with you.

[gulliver1]

You can tell Boris had to dress himself this morning.

[Peter Pedant]

// Fatty, this may come as a surprise ......many agree with you.//

I know I shouldnt read other people's posts because it is rude

isnt the sense of that sentence: "Fatty you dont speak for other people: Fatty you DO speak for other people."

I dunno: I am mad, me

[Arksided]

AS for Booing Boris and Carrie outside the memorial service. Is IMO out of order there's a time and place... nobheads.

[naomi24]

Thank you pp. you spotted my typo and you’re quite right. That should read ‘many disagree with you.’ Lucky for me you study my posts so thoroughly.

[gness]

That was interesting. It does say that there are many who really do care about their country and how it's governed.
