It not specific to this situation, or even this government, in the slightest... I personally can't stand it when people feign "omg shocking" when a light is shone on it in a new situation. It isn't "shocking"... it isn't "news"... it's standard UK politics in the 21st century.

There's plenty of scope for discussing that but trying to directly link it to the Covid situation or the stats/numbers is a tenuous hypothesis and an unhelpful discussion.

That's a lot of words about government when I specifically said it was about leadership, but you enjoy yourself.

Is it a lot of words about government when I said "leadership" twice, and "government" once, and that once was specifically to point out that I'm talking about leadership? it's an interesting interpretation that I have to say I did enjoy.
