Your boring usual comment is laughable, just admit, you lost all the important arguments, your current comments take the usual route, boring, repetitive and laughable. Keep trying harder,you are getting a bit stale now..loser.

I'm sure I won't be the only one to see the irony in "your current comments take the usual route, boring, repetitive and laughable"! I have to admit defeat in that category, because you are the undisputed Grand Master.

I'll ask again, would you care to give your considered opinion on the government's handling of "the biggest emergency since the last world war"?

Elite, please back off him. He's a plank just seeking attention.

I know, but the more attention he seeks, the thicker the plank he looks!

I'm just giving a helping hand.

The only loser is surely the one who cannot back up an opinion with considered comments. I

So what do you think of the way it has been handled?

[queenslandpie]

Out of interest Queensland - how is the UK's handling of COVID-19 being reported in Aus?

On the positive side its being reported with more sensitivity than when you(us) get a whooping in the cricket but its largely seen as something of a disaster. My personal feeling is that Australia is more closely aligned to the USA than the UK nowadays but Trump is getting an absolute (deserved) hammering.

I think I made my reservations about PM very clear but that does not detract from the fact that he is correctly pursuing servants of a government which is dishonest, evasive and unable to take its own responsibility. Ten years they have governed the country so any failure to procure equipment needs to be properly planted at their door. I would respect them more if they openly said 'Mea culpa. WE got this wrong'.
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.

I don't know why anyone goes on the Piers Morgan show or whatever it is called, true he asks some excellent questions it is a pity he never allows any one to answer them.

The reality is that he doesn't allow them to openly avoid the question. If they actually appear to be giving an answer he lets them, but as soon as they start evading and waffling he interrupts and gets back to the question. Like him or loathe him, the reason questions aren't being answered is down to the person wriggling and squirming and not down to him.
