    No, I wont be booing our prime minister. I like his handling of the pandemic so far.

    @JoeX which bit do you like?  (Genuine question).

    We have never been in this situation before, the modellers say one thing, sage something else, WHO something yet different, and PHengland yet, another. Who are we meant to take note of.We know China hushed up the first cases, long before Christmas.  In Russia 4 Drs who spoke out against the government, mysteriously "fell" out of windows.  I dont know about saying Boris was careless to get the virus, I have a friend in ITU 5 weeks, ventilated,was he careless and stupid!  Wonder how Jeremy Corbyn would have done things.

    Blustering, buffoon, poor grasp of detail and not relying on good science.   Covid is not flu!

    Our statistics are terrible. Our inflection rate is bad. Our death rate is appalling. The care home situation was calculatedly callous. Nearly everywhere else has done better. Maybe Corbyn would have been even worse but that doesn't exonerate Boris.

    . I won’t be booing Boris tomorrow I am not upset with him he has behaved exactly as I expected him to behave. Why are people surprised that a person in power has lied to us? When did we start trusting politicians? Is Boris known for his honesty? His integrity? His compassion? I think not.

    There can be no balance when only about 1% of folk think one thing whilst 99% think another.

    So if we dont agree with you we are blind to the truth?

    Thats an interesting, open-minded position.

    Enjoy the echoes. 😀
