And, btw, I would expect the same forensic treatment from PM if it was a Labour Government.
I just think it has been handled badly and whilst I understand the link you make you can make the same comparisions here. However our governments approach to this situation is quite different to the UK and whilst Geographical factors also assist us to some extent the UK went too late on all fronts both in lock down the procurement of supplies and the way that a potential second wave of infection could be handled. It's a mismanagement joke and will lead to thousands of deaths more than necessary. Its not a political issue really its a management issue and they get 1/10.
