He was on SkyNewsHD

He's also a joke.

Boris doesn't have a clue how to handle this Pandemic or practically anything that requires strong leadership.

He only has a fanbase for his personality, and Covid is showcasing that you need more than charisma to run the country.

Well they HAVE to change things as new advice comes in don't they ? this is a different variant they have now to deal with,it's really not so hard to understand things will change all the time,so much for people saying London was favoured.

I don't think ANYONE has a clue ,they just think they do ,things will change all the time as new advice comes in, people really need to stop the blame game and take some responsibility for themselves .He has already said loud and clear, the decisions are hard but new advice is coming in all the time and they have to follow that ,so not so much a shambles imo ,but a necessity. Stay safe Mocky:wavey:

If they listened to the advice they were given at the beginning we may have not been in this mess.

:clap1:

and the public begged and did a petition for the schools to be closed and that was ignored and they ignored the bit where it said schools played a huge part in the second wave.

I still stand by we should have done lockdown 1 way before it got out of control and lockdown 2 should have been done sooner as well. The Economy will suffer because the gov doesn't know what they are doing and letting it get out of hand so we will get lockdown after lockdown.

The new strain wasnt about then, I would wager they know more about it than we do.

But it was aware that a second wave would happen in the winter months and experts warned that it was imminent but the government still ignored it and opened schools and restaurants anyways.

they should have done this weeks ago, the relaxation was sheer madness

Personally I feel that if we had a Tony Blair, Gordon Brown, John Major, or even the Iron Lady in charge of this Pandemic that they would come up with more efficient plans than the clowns that are currently in charge at the moment.

Boris has been warned for a while now that Covid was gonna be a massive issue around the Winter months and has only started to take action a few days before Christmas, no wonder people are pissed.

And thanks, I hope that you stay safe too Kazanne.:)

Keep calm and carry on.

Shambles

We should of just stayed in the November Lockdown until next week

Kizzy 19-12-2020 04:23 PM

The strain that was and still is about now is deadly.. was that not reason enough to lock down? This new strain is irrelevant as the old threat still exists :/

tier 3 has kept the likes of liverpool and manchester in check, but that isn't enough in london and the south east, so its very relevant. If the new strain takes hold in the rest of the country, the whole country will end up in tier 4 until April

Yeah i agree here they shouldnt have told anyone that rules were gonna be relaxed. At least noone would have made plans that way and know what to expect

I am so frustrated I get how health and lives are so much more important so its best to cancel plans but ita getting peoples hopes up and getting them to splash the cash that i find disgraceful.

thesheriff443 19-12-2020 04:44 PM

The virus is an invisible killer
People where demanding their freedom back
Plus it was killing people businesses.

Damed if he does damed if he doesn’t.

I don’t think this is really fair to say. There’s businesses out there, some maybe on the brink of going under that have bent there arse over backwards doing their best to comply with the rules and operate in a safe manner and they are still being forced to close by the ignorance of this government.

I also feel for the majority of elderly in care homes that at the moment are almost being treated like prisoners, not being able to see any relatives since March and is at some stage (or may have already begun) to impact on their mental health.

There is % of the public whose actions are a reason to blame for this but the government should also hold accountability too.

We're in tier 4 :skull:

They knew about this new strain last week, boris said on Wednesday he wasn’t going to make any changes to the plans and he’s done another U turn. It’s embarrassing
