I am totally apolitical and always try to lok at the full picture, however, as is usual, many are trying to make political capital out of a totally unknown quantity

I think that it would be safe to say that none of us posting on this board are in a position to receive privileged information and have to rely on what the various experts are telling us ---an even they are unable to agree, however, they are the ones advising the government. All you can really do is to listen, make up your own mind from the information that you hear and let common sense prevail.

The easiest job in Parliament is to be in opposition because you can just criticise every little thing and you do not have to answer to any one because you are not in charge. If ever there was a situation which needed everyone trying to pull in the same direction then this is it, however, it just isn't going to happen because there is political capital to be gained. Very sad but no surprise.
