    Go figure?
    You are most unfair on our government BT, eejits in every other country bar Sweden have taken the same approach as ours. You are starting to remind me of Jeremy Corbyn, another lefty who never missed an opportunity to denigrate his own country. I suggest you search out that old Union Jack in your attic and run it up your flagpole every morning. You can of course lower it at sunset, it requires no more effort than standing to attention for a few seconds and a quick, snappy salute. You'll feel better for it, trust me.

    It's an even bigger success when you use your figures BT ----3600 beds --not 5000, therefore less financial outlay.
    You forgot to mention the others in the country that are opening and also the fact that "Medical staff have also fallen out with managers over the discharge of the Nightingale's first patient." NHS Management ------sinkov has been telling us about it!

    I was reading a short article yesterday by Dr Max Pemberton in which he said
    "Military personnel have criticised the NHS for its ‘appalling’ handling of distributing PPE. They claimed NHS logistics were ‘knackered’ and questioned why certain key items were not being rationed.

    The Army has now been called in to help get equipment to frontline service. Bring it on, I say!

    A colleague working at a testing centre where the Army has been helping out says she is astonished at how they ‘just got stuff done’.

    In situations like this, you realise how much time is wasted in the NHS because of bureaucracy and red tape. It brings to mind the Nike slogan ‘Just do it’.

    Perhaps the NHS could do with some military know-how, discipline, efficiency and logistics expertise."

    Hmmmmm... Total lockdown in Spain. Testing and tracing in Germany and South Korea. No, we did not take the same approach as theirs, nor are we doing now.

    It's like Piccadilly fu-cking Circus in Bolton this morning.

    There is more chance of the UK becoming a Republic, than we would allow the NHS to be privatised.

    The NHS and your Brenda are bomb proof.

    All well and good BT, but I never take any notice of politicians, particularly when it comes to figures. However, when an icon such as yourself quotes figures, my musician's mentality kicks in and I expect that the information is correct. So --come on and get a bloody grip!

    The thing is at the moment Supersub6, the lies and deception are so real, I figure all the figures are made up.

    Indeed BT, it works well enough in France and Germany, but mention it here and people start wibbling about chlorinated chicken and Donald Trump buying it out. Some fecking weirdos about believe me mon ami.
