The so-called daily briefings are useless in terms of public information, - complete spin doctored events where the appointed minister of the day doesn't actually answer the question posed.
Leadership there is not.

You have obviously made your mind up that it is all the fault of Boris, he asn't listened to any medical experts only Cummings.Quote:

Moving on to a more pertinent topic, who is to blame for the GOVERNMENT failing to provide front line NHS workers with adequate PPE?
Is it Boris Johnson & Co for being reactive rather than proactive, or is it once again down to those bloody government advisors?
Maybe you should ask Kate Sheehan to provide front line NHS workers with adequate PPE.
A despicable woman.
Yep, one despicable woman means any government failings can be completely ignored.Quote:

Of course the government will take the blame for its shortcomings or failures and if they are proved to be incompetent they will pay the price.
But at the moment it is the same people on here that hate the tories that are shouting the loudest, it is so predictable.
And before you accuse me of being Soccerman or seriouspie in disguise I didn't vote for Boris.
You have made your position pretty clear, the government are basically blameless and it's their advisors who are at fault.Quote:
