OT. Schools...normality and Coronavirus.

because I know full well that attempting to argue anything political with you is like trying to climb a greasy pole. 6500 Brexit posts and probably 2,000 covid posts on various threads demonstrate that you are intransigent in your views. You will shift the goalposts if you feel you may be losing a debate or avoid the questioning - or both. Its like playing chess with a pigeon

I'm getting the impression that you are a politician rather than an ex teacher, full of spin and diversion tactics. That may not sound like a compliment but its meant as one. In fact are you Boris Johnson (that balances the compliments)?

As for me, I have grown bored of the constant criticism, whether justified or not, so Im adopting a less serious perspective. Life's too short to constantly look back at the mistakes of others, but rather why not look forward to the next crisis :-). Surely BoJo, Cummings and Gove are cheap targets now?

I give up...’2000 Covid Posts’...’playing chess with a pigeon’...’greasy poles’...’look forward to the next crisis’. What are you on?

Just answer the question instead of being so evasive. What have they done so well that has led to your intolerance of any criticism of this government.

Even Tricky accepts they’re a ‘shower’. Indeed he doesn’t know of anyone who ‘thinks they aren’t a shower’...and yet he harps back to ‘what was the choice?’

I’m sorry but that is irrelevant. I understand people’s reluctance to vote for Corbyn last December...indeed his existence along with people’s frustrations over Brexit are the principle two reasons for Johnson’s overwhelmingly victory.

That though is history. What matters is what is happening now and that, imo, is that we are being led through the greatest national crisis of all our lifetimes by a bunch of incompetents who have only only found themselves in Cabinet because they either showed loyalty to Johnson, allowed their votes to transfer to him or are Brexit supporters.

No it isn't.

By your analogy, whoever else was in power would have done it better how?
Quite simply they were the best we had on the table. No matter how much I think they are a shower, you wouldn't agree with anything they or I suggest.
Personnally, I'd have taken a hard line stance for a set period. Then lifted it in one go, but that wouldn't have satisfied you either.
For me Johnson and the Tories has tip toed around it way too much. But that would have sent the left /liberals into orbit with the control being enforced.

Sorry RA. You stand out as repetative Tory bashing, yet get arsey when someone doesn't take your line of approach.


But I am going to put my question out again.

As one of the millions of thick ones out there, who should I/we have voted for?
Answer it and convince me.
