| Oh stewardess, I speak jive.  |
article His father in law is the source. I know nothing of the guy or his credibility, but this is big news if true. Anyone know better? Or more? Seems like an average day in gossipy London.?.? The delay is odd, to me.

It's in the tabloids, and is plausible, but none of us can know what is in his mind. It's equally plausible this is being blown up to give a greater appearance of weakness by political opponents. _________________________ NRA Endowment Member _________________________ "Of all tyrannies, a tyranny exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive.

If it happens, then I'll believe it. Journalists and politicians make ordinary pathological liars look like honest men. God Bless and Protect the Once and Future President, Donald John Trump. | |||

“Boris Johnson insisted he was fighting fit today - after Dominic Cummings' father-in-law suggested he was planning to quit after struggling to recover from coronavirus. Downing Street blasted as 'total nonsense' a suggestion that Mr Johnson could hand over power in six months time, made by Sir Humphry Wakefield…” https://mol.im/a/8661609 Serious about crackers | |||

Unfortunately, one of the things we're learning about COVID-19 is that "recovery" doesn't necessarily mean RECOVERED. A friend was in ICU for about a week, last month with COVID-19 and when he was released to go home, we were told that he was doing really well and had a good prognosis. Now it seems that he's taken a downturn and we just don't know what's going to happen to him. As a "novel" virus, there's just so much we don't know about it's properties.

| His diet consists of black coffee, and sarcasm.  |
He's either too sick to work or he isn't. Either way there is no timetable for tapering off and quitting in X amount of time. This smells like pure rumor-mongering. | |||

LINK No need to really read the above link. To summarize, on cue, there are multiple articles showing Johnson running and detailing how he's exercising with a personal trainer and has shed 20# of fat. How he's robust and raring to go... so, politics as usual. _________________________ NRA Endowment Member _________________________ "Of all tyrannies, a tyranny exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive.

Exercise is something that could actually hurt more than help in this particular case. Interesting article from JAMA: https://jamanetwork.com/journa.../fullarticle/2768916 | |||
