    But I have to apologise, it was my fault for making a comment about care homes ( the thread title mislead me) I didn't realise it was about Boris's leadership skills

    Probably most have a break even point of 80% occupancy, below that they are going bust.

    The NHS prepared the ground for a major influx of focused patients including building temporary hospitals. It made sense to try to get empty beds.

    Unfortunately apart from a lack of testing the elderly patients got sent to private care homes where the management staff hadn't invested in enough PPE, isolation measures and trained staff. Even though it was their responsibility to do so.

    I have an elderly relative in a care home where three of the regular carers can't speak English, which is actually an improvement on the one she was in before that which seemed to have a motto of " do it on the cheap"

    Easy to blame Boris and co but essentially Care Homes are factories where the patients are raw materials
    So when he said in March that a protective ring would be thrown around care homes he was just saying words?

    When he said in April that no one could leave a hospital and go to a care home without a test he was mucking about?

    When the Turkish PPE arrived for the NHS that had to be sent back for being substandard should he have given it to care homes?

    Shame on you ST thinking that Johnson's leadership [or should I say lack of it] has anything at all to do with Care homes & care for the elderly as they are totally unrelated especially when things go wrong

    You'd be amazed how many actually think Johnson's antics are an endearing personality trait Fire .

    Boris and Alexander are 2 different people. He’s been observed ruffling up his hair and morphing into Boris just before cameras roll. All his family and friends call him Alexander and he is much quieter and sensible around them.

    Like a posh sequel to Fight Club.

    You’ve spelt that wrong. You should’ve used the spellcheck on Mycroft Word.

    Just seen some of these care homes charge £1400/ week for care.

    Someone called a radio station the other day to say the owner turns up in a helicopter to the care home she works for, and he’s didn’t order PPE even before the shortage as he likes his money too much.

    Need more control over the care sector, it seems Boris was right after all
