The only thing BorisJohnson is capable of seizing control of is his own agenda. He is a lying, incompetent, corrupt politician and needs booting out of office

So glad he could find time to do the job he's paid to do

As opposed to who exactly?

Irrelevant I know, but that portrait in his attic must be looking amazing by now. I’ve never watched someone disintegrate in real time before

Arf.

Please can you at least attempt to make a plausible headline, how many times do we hear the lie that the incompetent PM will take charge

Kowtowing sort of headline, you could have at least used inverted commas on 'seize control' since you're citing a senior Tory. Unless you seriously believe Boris Johnson is in control 😂 BorisJohnson backtoschool COVIDー19

It must be acknowledged that the facts about children at least risk of/from/spreaders has been available for sometime! Only those over focused on the infection metric may have missed it. Schools should have reopened in June so it would be unforgivable not to do so in September.

and you thought things couldn’t get any worse 😳

braze yourself for his brilliant ideas

LoL...that'll inspire confidence. The ultimate shirker, lazy sod and liar is taking control.

Oh, blimey.

back_fights Seems he thinks he public will trust him more than they trust Willamson, deluded man.

Ah, the old reverse Midas touch.

That’s tough on the teachers and pupils. I’d prefer hapless Williamson any day!

So this is how it works 1. Boris where is he? 2. Hapless minister bossed around by No 10 office sent to tv. 3. Cummings leaks to undermine minister & dept, is actually in control making a mess. 4. PM leaks he “takes control” to press 5. Eventually saved by ‘experts’

Oh great, no problem, we’re all saved , nothing to see hear, move along, what’s that over there ... a rubber boat .........

Who?

Too late.

Probably going to be worse than what it was 💩

Alexander Boris de Pfeffle Johnson BoTCHED JoB {shortened to BoJo} to those who have remembered his history has aged It certainly seems that sad tho' it was his illness was due to his not following the science «He shook hands with coronavirus sufferers» Oven-Ready = Goose Cooked

The implication of the repeated ‘Johnson will now take personal charge’ media narrative is that every government error made so far isn’t his doing and he is instead our great visionary leader. It might even be an effective propaganda strategy if he weren’t so obviously inept.

Create chaos, then seize control. Seems to be a pattern. 🤔🤔

'Minha vontade é encher tua boca na porrada'. Jair Bolsonaro, presidente do Brasil

Conservatives trapped with their privatization policies and the drive to force the citizen to do as the state demands democracy dies and the media 'report facts'

Honestly? I think he'd struggle to seize control of much more than a corkscrew!

That man looks unwell. Perhaps he needs a good long holiday. Poor chap, bit green around the gills. weird fishman

Hopefully Boris will handle the exam problem better than he handled the virus.

How many issues has Bojo seized control of in the past year? And they still all end up fed.

But fucking late now you numpty.

If the PM got to step in all the times, then we have the wrong people in the cabinet surely. That includes the PM, as he selected the wrong people and he cannot possibly function alone!

Seize control....... the fecker can't control his hair, let alone anything else.

Seize control? Whilst on holiday 😂 - I guess as the parent of multiple children he at least has an interest (if he can concentrate long enough) in education - maybe the children need violin lessons at their private schools

🤦🏻‍♀️

How many fiasco’s has Johnson had to “take control” of now? Someone must have a spreadsheet.

Does he own a comb? A brush?

He couldn’t seize his own arse with an extra pair of hands. BorisHasFailedBritain

Just when we thought it couldn't possibly get any worse PM Johnson decides he's going to take control! Heads around the country will be in despair as the already shambolic messaging from the Govt becomes even more confused thanks to the intervention from Boris

His dad looks younger than he does these days.

Violins is never the answer....

After the exertions of 'seizing control' it must warrant a holiday to recover from the strain.

Ah ffs.

Why bother.... School should be open and parents should take responsibility and send them...

Better off with Williamson then.

Does he have another oven ready plan for schools? If he does let's hope it's better than the £1 All Day Breakfast he gave us for Brexit. Does he actually know most children aren't privately educated? Does he even know how many children he has?

And that’s supposed to make us feel better?

Right bojo. Universal face covering mandate for ALL schools. Testing, trace and isolate in all schools. Then my boy can go back. Without basic public health measures in place we face the exact same issues american schools are facing as we speak. Many already reverted to distance

Bloody hell Johnson just leave it alone - you're making things worse

The Dummies Guide to Despotism. Stage 1: create chaos. Stage 2: take control. Stage 3. That's it, there is no Stage 3.

'Children as drivers of infection' Dr John Campbell CoronavirusUK ⚠️ Covid19UK

Then it's on him. Good. It will be a disaster. Current numbers are high. Kids will be unknowingly infecting their teachers parents and grandparents. Want photos of his kids going to school please.

Of course. Because everyone who understands this totally avoidable fiasco is clamouring for Johnson to take personal control, as if he had nothing to do with how we got here. I thought we were supposed to be a modern democracy. Why would we ever need this “strong man” myth?

Shouldn’t gave fucked off on his jollies then.

No stable door left unclosed.

Is he gonna sell off the classrooms?

Is this meant to reassure us?

Oh dear, this could get a lot worse.

Jesus this job is ageing him, he looks horrendous

Will he bring the tent with him,?

dear Guardian - do you still maintain that this grotesquely racist cartoon - especially of Priti Patel - is acceptable for any decent newspaper to have published? To most people you crossed a red line that you never apologised for. Falling sales have reasons.

Take back control !!! . That should be interesting.

The only thing Johnson can seize...

I wouldn’t trust him to be able to maintain control after seizing his own wang

Is Boris back from vacation... He shouldn’t be running an ice cream store. But whatever.

He’s never been in charge of anything

I'm so reassured...

Have another holiday for goodness sake !!🥶🥶

And I remember when he came back from the sick, he was going to seize control of the Covid19 shambles by his appointed ministers. Nothing but chaos ever comes from that wretched man.

... which he had control of.

Co u starej kurwy w Londynie słychacć ?

Someone needs to.

Hold on. How can he do this if he’s out of the loop on holiday? Both can’t be true. Also why are you sending your legal team after satirists? I though free speech was important to you guys?

So what are you doing to ensure it's safe?

Would this entail trying to take credit for the last few months where schools have been desperately trying to plan for reopening with very little in the way of financial support and consistent guidelines?

Clown car government.

hes the prime minister, hes been in charge of it since he became prime minister

Boris Johnson must stop destroying and start building: that’s the lesson of Covid-19Abolishing Public Health England or the overseas aid department is easy. The challenge is to create new institutions that will reshape Britain 'The difference between a revolt and a revolution is that the latter seeks to build a new order while the former knows only destruction. ' I think this issue affects all countries worldwide. They should join and follow similar policies. Citizens travel abroad frequently and each country follows different procedures which may increase the spreading of Covid19. So much nonsense in every paragraph. The suggestion about increasing technical education is the only wise one & that's already being worked on. There was more social mobility before half got so-called degrees & there were technical colleges.
