The ability to lead consists of many aspects. Different elements work for different people depending on audience, personality, the task in hand, the belief of the people. Can you even imagine that Corbyn would have had the confidence of the majority of U.K. people to lead them through this ? I would not even follow Corbyn to the pub bar. Boris has done everything required of him, didn’t act stupid, followed to the letter the scientific advice, fronted up the actions and the daily count, succumbed to the disease but still led from the front nearly to the detriment of his own life, and will no doubt lead again and raise people’s spirits when he has recovered. The left hate him because he does what no one on their side has the ability to do, bring people with him......

You‘ve well and truly drank the Kool Aid here Pete. The fella’s in hospital because he didn’t follow the advice of scientists and was blustering about shaking the hands of Covid patients.

What does this have to do with Corbyn or the left? We're talking about Johnson. What you said is flat out untrue. 'Boris has done everything required of him, didn’t act stupid, followed to the letter the scientific advice, fronted up the actions and the daily count, succumbed to the disease but still led from the front nearly to the detriment of his own life' - this did not happen. He acted stupid by not distancing himself, he didn't front up to those actions. He 'led from the front' - what does this mean?

It's so odd how infatuated with this man you are. You literally repeat untruths about his behaviour to try and defend him.
 
Germany now has more people who have recovered from coronavirus than active cases, just over 50% of those have recovered.

In Spain, 37% of the 166,831 people infected have recovered.

In Italy 22% of 156,363 have recovered.

In France 21% of 133,670 have recovered.

In the UK 85,208 people have tested positive, but only 0.3% have so far recovered.


Just look at those figures. An utter 'kin disgrace.

The Tory cult have spent the past 5 years talking about Britain being able to go it alone in the world: "the 5th largest economy".

Under them the country is completely humbled. An international disaster zone.

you’ve got to see testing is a massive part of that ? Look this government’s strategy is all over the show , particularly in my opinion on testing, but the figures simply aren’t accurate . Anecdotal but I know someone, the story is accurate but second hand , who went in Hospital A&E with symptoms and was later told it was felt he had it but wouldn’t be tested as he wasn’t being admitted overnight . You see gove’s daughter tested but not medical or people with symptoms attending hospital , it’s all over the show but I certainly don’t feel the numbers paint any kind of accurate picture .

I can’t believe the only people to recover from this are Charlie Austin , idris Elba ,Arteta and Johnson . It seems obvious huge numbers of people have had it and remained undiagnosed .

A lot of info sites now recording the UK recovery stats as N/A, for whatever reason we just don't submit that data

We can only go on the data available.

If this murderous government fail to provide testing on the scale of other countries then they pay the price of being seen as governing a nation being left behind.

Let them make good their promises on testing. Until then it is what it is.
