UK Polictics

@Platinum doing well have you been tested for the virus? Where is Boris the idiot hes off for another break. The man is not fit imo to run this country. I wouldnt let him run a game of Bingo!

Bs@Cutiepi23

@Platinum I did say that's the Government side meaning the other side is just as bad.

How is BJ dealing with it..... let's see...... hearding let everyone catch it and see IF we can make enough people make a natural defence against it, or we will ahve tests within day's until the Health expert said weekss!!! or telling people to stay at home but its ok to go away to where ever he said!!! or hiding away from the responsiblity of beign PM and a leader, seeing this whole thing as a joke.

Boris has been left yet again he isn't git for the important jobs.

He is still working he is just not making a speech today the chancellor is....he advised people to stay in and the next step will be the army if people don't listen....we are at a much better position than Italy were after our first death...we will peak at the end of the april and things will ease off by mid May @milkymum1

@Platinum The man peddled BS to get elected. Hes the type to take the money & run. He never answers questions hes scared of whats going to come out his own mouth.....lies & more lies. He ducks and dives important questions.

@Platinum Johnson looks good on tv but we have locked down much later than other countries and changed strategy. I want the tories to do well with this but i dont see it. I think the virus will hit us harder than most places because of their actions.

@Burnley123 this is a very difficult time and whoever was in power would have found it difficult ...if people would do as they are told they would stay indoors but he will end up bringing the army in...you don't know if other countries are doing better or not. We are in a better position than Italy and Spain were at the same amount of time scale...so we shall see...we will peak by the third week in April and a lot of the restrictions will be lifted by first or second week of May....the main thing they have done wrong is to allow flights to bring people back into this country....shut our borders and no more flights in or out....

@Platinum We are in the same position Italy are in at the same stage. We are just two weeks behind them cos we got it later. Italy didn't deal with this well either though they had less time to prepare cos it hit them early.

I very much hope i am wrong in this but looking at how just about every european country locked down a week, or two weeks earlier than us, i am fearing the worst.

@Platinum what they have done wrong is not to have tests to see who has the virus. The tests are required for the NHS workers as well as the public. Without testing it will be a nightmare.

@Cutiepi23 Agreed. Its incredible that nhs staff are not being tested. What happens if you have to close a hospital when the nhs is already struggling?

As with most things, we will know who is right by May....Italy deaths are dropping as are China ...@Burnley123

@Burnley123 they have 3.5 million new testers that are on there way out and they are opening a gigantic new temporary hospital

@Platinum Yes. There is a two week lag on measures being implemented and taking effect. It will keep rising over the next week or so then the rate of increase will slow. We will see.

@Platinum This is good and better late than never.

@Cutiepi23 you don't know much about politics do you...all politicians never answer questions....he won by a massive majority and everything he has done for the country has been great...you cannot fault anything he has done, except taking us out of the eu, which will be great for the country..

@Platinum Oh please - we know that Johnson and Gove are professional liars - come on - they are doing what any govt has to do and it will all come back to bite us.

WHere is Johnson's "box ofice" style now - he looks as depressed and exhausted as the rest of us - and he only won because of the Labour election campaign. Do you really think that Johnson will change hospital car parking fees for staff when this is all over? Of course he won't

@Justme264 do you know how stupid your whole comment is...of course he is tired...he got in because the country wanted brexit and knew it was the only way...there is so many more things going on and Johnson is doing a fantastic job...why don't you try living in Syria , it might suit you...

@Platinum Advised people he should be says people MUST stay at home and ONLY essentlual workers go to work not all this that is happening now.

Also by the graphs we are higher than every other country in comparrison OTHER than Spain so if you reallt hink it will be over here by May then you really do beleive the tory machine and not what really happening.

@Cutiepi23 I loved it at one press conference were boris said we would have the tests within days and the health expert hes using said within weeks and he had this blank sheepish look of a 6yr old being caught lying!!!

@Burnley123 well put this isnt about party lines but about beating this virus but the tories have to be held accoutable for thier lack of actions and the most stupidest idea of hearding , that idea goes back to the old days of foot soldiers as cannon fodder!!

@Burnley123 Yes I really cant udnerstand how unprepared we are, we had months to prepare from China and 2 maybe 3 weeks from Italy and what did we do absolutly nothing , just did the typical British thing stick our head in the sand, play God save the Queen and had a cup of tea and hoped it would pass us by.

@Platinum They have been ordered but no date of arrival and the first batch of tests on thier way to the UK have been intercepted in the USA as fake tests!

@Burnley123 The tests have been ordered which is a huge difference in being on thier way!!

@Platinum Yes ALL polictions do lie but have a limit to how much they lie, also how can you say the hearding is good its complty disgusting you beleive in that, also the sdhare of voted for the tories went down at the last GE buyt because of how the voting system is set up the tories got more MPs.

As for leaving the EU have you not seen all the panic buying and the lack of goods in the shops, this is the pre-run for leaving the EU and it WON'T be good for UK business, do tell me how?

The panic buying has nothing to do with brexit....geez....that is up there with the most stupid comment anyone has ever written....@milkymum1
