He’s just human. You see people that support Boris know that, he’s human and he makes mistakes.....and he’s still the best the UK has got......

God help us

Nope. It makes no difference what my changed response to all this was. You're playing the man and not the ball.

How about addressing that comparison / choice?

You said you accepted you misunderstood the issue, Thats sound. You wont afford the same luxury to scientists and the Government.

And also, what comparison/choice? At the time of writing, this thing isnt finished. You are writing your match report after the first 15 minutes of the game.

Just as any virus is, the common flu etc.

I'm not throwing anyone to the wolves. And by the way, the sensationalist reporting on this is probably accounting for a lot of ill health too, especially amongst the vulnerable.

There's a fine line to be trodden between informing and panicking people. That's not been found in the media.

2 months ago you were saying its all a con or designed to scare us sommet. Now, with the considerable benefit of hindsight, you froth.

You must be kidding.

Surely not......








Sorry Dave

I tell you what mate, if I had one scrap of power to decide the fortunes of people in this country you might have half a point.

BTW, I'd changed my mind from one of 'it's over-reaction' to one where I wanted a lockdown well before those turds came to that conclusion.

But let's get back to the point shall we? Would you prefer Germany's response to this virus outbreak or this country's? Pretty simple to answer.

The fact of the matter is that ANY country that responded about 2 weeks earlier than this clown govcernment of ours did are now in a MUCH better position than we we are to come out of this and they are DEFINITLEY seeing less fatalities.

It's completely bogus to talk about "let's see who's done best after the virus subsides". We can see it now. You KNOW we can.

Thats my point. Is it? I dont know.

I'm asking you (given you think it's debateable that one country's approach cant be compared with another until the ends of the crisis) if yould rather at this point have been governed by the German Government rather than this one in terms of their policy on protecting their populations.

We saw what was happening in Italy and we did nothing.

We could have locked down when they did and we would have 000s less deaths and we might well be on the road to re-opening, but instead Boris the Butcher was shaking hands and going on holiday.

You are going to hold Voters to account are you. Who the hell do you think you are, I mean apart from an overbearing tit. Can I meekly ask our new gruppenfuhrer, exactly how you will hold us ‘to account’. I appreciate that you dismissed the other poster because he showed up your ilk for the nasty sods that you are, but perhaps if you actually listened to others you might actually grow up.....

Who is "your ilk" and the "nasty sods" to which you refer?

Two weeks difference in lockdown would have been enormous. They had two months to sort that out.

Greece shut down two weeks before Britain did: they now have zero deaths per day from Covid19 - Britain has between 600-800 per day EVERY day.

I'm sorry, but the word murder is entirely justified here.

Where has the floppy-haired tit ran off to now by the way?

Rome is burning and hes sitting on a beach.

He's at his Chequers Country Club biding his time and being briefed by his fellow rats what the right time will be to come back to exploit any encouraging news that the worst is passed for now.

My theory is that Boris will be back in front of the cameras when the government start bringing us out of lockdown.

So he can be the bearer of good news to everyone chomping at the bit to go back out the house again.

See Oxford Uni are confident of developing a vaccine which could be in place by September.

Question to everyone. If it was rolled out would you sign up?

Im going to say no. Im not an anti vaxxer at all, but the long term effects of this will be unknown. If I end up in intensive care then its a no brainer but I think thats the only circumstance I would say yes.

The thing is.

Everyone has a vaccine. It isn't a global effort neither, every country seems to have their own vaccine in the works , surely they aren't all spot on.

Hell even America were trying to buy one from Germany not too long ago.
