Friend of Boris Johnson Says the Prime Minister 'Looked Pretty Rough' | Good Morning Britain

Boris Johnson himself is seriously ill in intensive care with the disease, so we get to speak to his

friend

, his former director of communications when he was mayor of London, Gita Harry and, at one point, a doctor, dr. Javed Abdel Moneim and Quito I wonder when you last spoke to Boris. I think it was a shock to everyone after seeing him at the end of last week hoping he would come out of his seven days of isolation. and then suddenly they took him to the hospital and then suddenly his condition deteriorated. Yeah, just a week ago when he was told he had the virus, he was

pretty

optimistic about getting rid of it and moving on, and that's

pretty

much what he did. but when I saw him, like everyone else, standing outside ten o'clock, leading the applause for NHS workers on Thursday, I thought he

looked

pretty tough.

Now I've been told all week that he has reduced some of the direct work he has been doing. He has delegated a lot of that has followed medical advice, they have tried to protect him to those around him at number ten, but in the end they are massive decisions at a time like this and Boris is not someone to issue those decisions. he knows that the responsibility is on him, at the end of the day he will be responsible for all this and he is also, as we all know, the man who is more personally associated with this government than most

prime

minister

s, so he should not be present in The steps to encourage NHS leaders not to be there every day in one way or another would be very difficult for him, which is why I think he probably didn't give this body the maximum opportunity to get a

good

rest, that's the problem, isn't it Guiteau? because he's the

prime

minister

, it's the most important job in the country right now, when you're suffering from symptoms you know most people will just back off a little bit, but he channels this Churchillian spirit, you know, excuse my language, keep fucking around, There's Churchill. you know, he famously said you know and maybe that wasn't the right thing to do, but you can't blame him for wanting to do it, you certainly can't blame him because it's a very important metaphor that trumps exactly what it's all about. knowing that we can get th

rough

this, as it is in his own nature for four years to work closely together when he may not really remember that he was sick.

I don't even remember him being tired and you get the feeling that if he wasn't involved if he didn't rally from the front, then no matter how capable the people around him are, they wouldn't bring a sense of determination, a sense of urgency to that. and the second thing is communication and that's why I think He would have been absolutely devastated if he had to succumb to go to the First Basin hospital and go into intensive care. Now we can only hope that it is a short period and that he recovers sooner rather than later. Kito, it's a reality.

Check here, it doesn't exist on a human level, we can all feel enormous sympathy for Boris Johnson and wish him a speedy recovery, but once he gets to intensive care after two weeks of having this, it's pretty clear that he's temporarily incapacitated and it's more likely. That he will be out of action for a minimum. I would have thought several weeks after this. Dominic Rob is something of a de facto prime minister, but what is his understanding of the reality of who is now in charge and why he is so important? Huge decisions about who will have the final say may be made in the coming days.

Well, it's a

good

question because in our system, the Prime Minister literally means first among equals, so in a way he rises above other cabinet colleagues. but with the rest of them you can argue that you've known for months who outperforms who and whose experience is more relevant. Clearly, two of the key figures here who generally seem to have done a pretty good job on the Hancock Health Center team put their necks at ease. as an inexperienced but tremendously impressive young man, very quickly Chancellor and a kind of Prime Minister for that and there is no one to make the decision when different people and people not only do it sometimes out of personal rivalry, but I accepted political differences as the only person. who could pass judgment on the cause when there are disputes when he is in the cabinet is the Prime Minister himself, so in the next few days, if it comes to implementing what has been designed to carry out the tests, carry out the type of logistical preparations , communicating what is happening is very well and done, but when massive appeals have to be made, they are ones that Boris Johnson, any prime minister, did not want to make and, you know, he has a great character in that sense and he still looms more about his cabinet and then most of the prime ministers
