    Clearly not the ‘Rose Coloured Glasses’ one that you use to look at everything this Government does through.

    No ‘hindsight’, GP...no 20/20 vision...just common sense and listening to those that understand the science. That’s the point.

    Whether I’m right or not just doesn’t matter and isn’t the point. As far as Brexit is concerned Johnson is one of the architects and it’s still looking like a last minute screw up...’oven ready deal’...oh please?

    As far as Covid is concerned...of course it’s not his fault and of course it’s unprecedented in living memory...but can you really defend his and Hancock’s handling of it?

    I think Ram 59 recently compared the running of the country to the running of a football club. On the evidence so far, and particularly of yesterday’s latest ill timed and belated ‘U’ turn, the fans - you very vocally amongst them - would have been clamouring for the sacking of this pair.

    Yes, you love to constantly knock the government, but would labour or anyone else have done any better?

    The easiest comparison is Wales, where labour are in control, ambulances queuing outside hospitals, an AVERAGE covid rate of 562 which is well over TWICE that for England, which has been affected by one particular virulant strain. The welsh labour government's current handling of the the crisis makes the tories look like geniuses, that's no mean feat.
