STAY ALERT – GOVERNMENT BY CATCHPHRASE

Prime Minister Boris Johnson's baffling, cryptic, weakened and confusing new message to the nation – STAY ALERT! – has been widely criticised and mocked.

It has even been boycotted by the governments of Wales, Scotland and N. Ireland!


It puts me in mind of the old Noel Edmonds quip, 'Keep alert – Britain needs more lerts!'


Wilson agreed that Stay Alert was a woefully inadequate catchphrase and quickly found this infinitely better alternative from radio journalist Shelagh Fogarty.


He's turned it into a poster for you to print out and stick in your window – but I know he's deeply disappointed he didn't think of it first…
