Time for Labour to take charge. Surely they can't do any worse?

Maybe he does, maybe he doesn't. Having (or lacking) a good heart doesn't mean someone is a good (or bad) leader for the country.

Anyway, that's like saying "Boris is doing his best". We've seen his best, and it ain't good enough.

I can dream ..

Times like this, it wouldn't kill the Gov to reach across the benches, true.

On Tuesday, it is a vote on Plan B measures
A large amount of Conservatives, are against Plan B
but not a problem

Labour will back the new plans.

Or to put it another way "The opposition will back the Government"

Isn't it great having representation?

The Opposition doesn't have to automatically disagree with every little thing the Gov does...

From CNN HD
Reporter in South Africa
Many Schools and Companies are now Mandating vaccines
or you get Fired.

Sadly, some in South Africa are outright refusing a vaccine.

Boosters DO beat Omicron and cut risk of falling ill by 75% but two jabs WON'T stop you
developing symptoms as promising official analysis shows NO Brits infected with super-
mutant strain have been hospitalised yet

With Starmer as their leader , It gives very little hope.

What annoys me about Starmer is yesterday he should have been hamnmering Boris

"why plan B when there is NO evidence this strain is dangerous?"

What evidence do you have to say that being more transmissible is bad?"

"Are you looking into the effect this constant scaremongering is having on mental issues with children as much as you worry about the NHS not having enough beds"

"Have you calculated the huge scale damage this is doing to education, how much schooling is being lost?"

etc

In stead he just wants to make jokes and say "well we would have more restrictions"

[arista]

Labour back Plan B.

The 2 vaccines do not protect you in anyway against the new variant...funnily enough though, the booster jab gives you 75 percent protection..

Sounds a bit fishy to me.
