Well, your point 1 is untrue and didn’t happen. That was completely made up and twisted by the media.

So I didn’t bother reading the rest.

While that is true, do you think it erases the previous culpability over our European winning death rate total?

Which apparently now won't be enough to ease the restrictions as first thought.

This govt is constantly moving goalposts, zig zagging on its projections, and all the while making more and more things illegal. If they are following the science then the question needs to be asked on whether they're seeking the wrong advice from the wrong people. Ferguson and his imperial college mates are woefully short on correct modelling and have been all the way through. Perhaps it's time to try a different group of experts?

It's like no-one knew anything about a completely new virus. Damn our world leaders and other professionals failing to be able to see into the future!

Yes, lots of things have been done very badly BUT a lot of the info from early on, for example, can children catch/transmit, we're always couched (by scientists) as being only working hypotheses, because we simply did not know!

Fifteen months on from its emergence in China, we know a lot more about the science, but we still can't possibly know everything. For example, we have no idea what the long term effects are of natural Covid infection and can't ever know that until we've followed patients for a number of years.

Yes. It makes me really proud to be British that we bought up enough vaccine to fully immunise (I.e. 2 jabs) the entire population of the UK 3 times over. After all, as Boris has repeatedly said, nobody is safe until we are all safe. Presumably that includes our European neighbours too.

Perhaps people might consider that when they moan about not going abroad for their holiday...

The dates set by Boris for reducing restrictions have always been subject to the data. Unfortunately the nature of Covid is that the goalposts do move, the biggest example being the new variant. This was never going to be easy.

I knew about deaths in China in the November 2019..thousands of them, the crematoria were operating 24/7 to get rid of the dead. Literally dying in the streets in some cases..

I hope you aren’t talking about Sturgeon! Given the density of population in Scotland she seems to have done far worse than Boris. Scotland’s deaths should be more on a par with those in Norway where as it is they aren’t much better than those in England.

As I say, I didn’t read the rest. I’m not into people politicising a virus. Especially when it’s with a clear agenda. Maybe if something was more balanced then fair enough. But when the opening statement is something that is completely untrue then the rest loses all credibility

The UK does not have the highest death rate in Europe. "

BMJ

The UK had a higher rate of excess deaths among people aged under 65 in 2020 than almost every other country in Europe, new figures from the Office for National Statistics show.1 By 18 December 2020 only Bulgaria had a higher cumulative excess mortality rate among under 65s (12.3% above the five year average) than the UK (at 7.7%).

The ONS report, which looked at data from 26 countries, lays bare covid-19’s effects across Europe in 2020 and highlights the differing impact of the first and second waves of the pandemic.

By midway through last year (26 June) the UK had the highest cumulative excess mortality rate in Europe of 6.7% across all age groups (table 1). By 18 December the UK (at 7.2%) remained among the 10 worst affected countries but was behind Poland (11.6%), Spain (10.6%), Belgium (9.7%), Bulgaria (8.9%), the Czech Republic (8.4%), and Slovenia (8.2%).

"Well,your point 1 is untrue and didn’t happen. That was completely made up and twisted by the media.

So I didn’t bother reading the rest.

Really?

Really? as in I don't believe you didn't read the rest or..

Really? as in 'your point 1 is untrue and didn’t happen. That was completely made up and twisted by the media'?

Or both?

Please clarify

I'd like to know how the media completely made up the herd theory?"


" And Sir Patrick began to talk about the concept of herd immunity. Speaking about the coronavirus he said: "It's not possible to stop everybody getting it and it's also actually not desirable because you want some immunity in the population. We need immunity to protect ourselves from this in the future.""

and.. .


" Sir Patrick was on BBC Radio 4's Today programme. He said the thinking behind the government's approach was to try to "reduce the peak", and because most people would only get a "mild illness", to "build up some degree of herd immunity…"

and...


" On 12 March, the chief scientific adviser, Patrick Vallance, and chief medical officer, Chris Whitty, announced that the UK had moved from containing the virus to delaying its spread. Their plan was to flatten the curve of the epidemic that would sweep through our population. They reassured us that herd immunity would kick in once 60% of the population had been infected. "

I think the OP requires an apology

3 weeks to flatten the curve . Bullshit

Stay locked down and all over by Christmas. Bullshit

Vaccinate the vulnerable and no more lockdowns. Bullshit

Have your vaccine to return your freedoms ie travel, meeting up,and return to normal. Bullshit

3rd wave need to see if you can be released from prison sorry lockdown, vaccines don't count now new virus on the way. Anyone seeing the pattern no ok as you where then, follow the rules and be happy.

"He also bought more vaccine than the rest of the EU put together with which we have vaccinated nearly 50% of the UK population and reduced deaths from Covid massively. You forgot that one

While that is true, do you think it erases the previous culpability over our European winning death rate total?

That statement is not correct either.

I wonder if people actually check things before they post or just post what they read on Facebook.!!

Please inform me as to what about my statement is incorrect?

The UK does not have the highest death rate in Europe. "

Who is higher?

So many things I'd like to say but...

1)It is possible for people to make mistakes and also do some other things well.

2) making mistakes and getting things wrong does not mean everything you do is a mistake or wrong.

3) doing some things well does not mean you do everything well.

Wow abs that’s your assessment of the most incompetent leader of all time?

Point 3 what has he done well? (He ordered vaccine yes but the NHS actually rolled it out so not that one) "

Whereas the nhs order the ppe but because there wasnt enough it was Boris's fault, you cant have it both ways, also there was a worldwide shortage of ppe several countries stopped exporting it which didnt help, as for testing we are testing nearly ten times the number France is, we are sequencing half the amount the rest of the world is put together.

The major issue at the start was sending old folks back to care homes, however despite asking many times no one has suggested where else they could have gone, the nightingale hospitals werent running and hospital.beds were needed for covid patients that had a realistic chance of surviving,now while some will scream every life matters governments have to make painful choices and plenty of other countries also did the same.

Fifteen months on from its emergence in China, we know a lot more about the science, but we still can't possibly know everything. For example, we have no idea what the long term effects are of natural Covid infection and can't ever know that until we've followed patients for a number of years.

I knew about deaths in China in the November 2019..thousands of them, the crematoria were operating 24/7 to get rid of the dead. Literally dying in the streets in some cases..

Models predicted and laid out what was needed to protect ourselves in such a situation. Basically it was ignored..

Right ok

So we are really unlucky then aremt we?

We seem to uniquely affected by having the most overweight,lazy and elderly populations in the world combined with a uniquely high bame population which have all contributed to a shocking death rate, which is nothing whatsoever to do with how the crises has been handled.?

Well if you apply that superficial level of thought to the above one could conversely say for example.....

The nhs order the ppe therefor he had nothing to do with it...

Or the nhs manage their processes and procurements so shortages in nurses, Dr's, beds... Well the nhs manage that so that's nothing to do with him.

You see the argument works both ways. Now I'm not defending him. I'm just saying the govt have done some things well amongst the many things that they haven't. But here's a thing... If we were all perfect and hadn't spread it to eachother... Well it would look different too.... Boris doesn't force anyone to be overweight and unhealthy and yet we are the fat boys of Europe.... Once again... I'm not in anyway defending some of the disaster that govt have been in charge of... But not everything they have done has been bad. And before you ask I'll give you a few... Furlough scheme, testing, vaccine program.

3rd wave need to see if you can be released from prison sorry lockdown, vaccines don't count now new virus on the way. Anyone seeing the pattern no ok as you where then, follow the rules and be happy. "

You've seen the roadmap and experienced the 1st stage. The 2nd stage is next Monday. It's useful that we're also given notice about things that could affect things but we're progressing in the right direction and lockdown has helped to make drastic cuts to infection levels. I'm 1 of the biggest critics of the government for their abysmal management of this. I do think it's right that we're now moving more cautiously, compared with how things happened after the first.

"He also bought more vaccine than the rest of the EU put together with which we have vaccinated nearly 50% of the UK population and reduced deaths from Covid massively. You forgot that one

While that is true, do you think it erases the previous culpability over our European winning death rate total?

So many things I'd like to say but...

1)It is possible for people to make mistakes and also do some other things well.

2) making mistakes and getting things wrong does not mean everything you do is a mistake or wrong.

3) doing some things well does not mean you do everything well.

Wow abs that’s your assessment of the most incompetent leader of all time?

Point 3 what has he done well? (He ordered vaccine yes but the NHS actually rolled it out so not that one)

Well if you apply that superficial level of thought to the above one could conversely say for example.....

The nhs order the ppe therefor he had nothing to do with it...

Or the nhs manage their processes and procurements so shortages in nurses, Dr's, beds... Well the nhs manage that so that's nothing to do with him.

You see the argument works both ways. Now I'm not defending him. I'm just saying the govt have done some things well amongst the many things that they haven't. But here's a thing... If we were all perfect and hadn't spread it to eachother... Well it would look different too.... Boris doesn't force anyone to be overweight and unhealthy and yet we are the fat boys of Europe.... Once again... I'm not in anyway defending some of the disaster that govt have been in charge of... But not everything they have done has been bad. And before you ask I'll give you a few... Furlough scheme, testing, vaccine program. "

Testing is done well? Wow my standards are higher do you not remember the farce where wee couldn’t get them for weeks? Where we were being sent hundreds of miles to test?

Furlough scheme? 80%? With minimal sickness support? No national scheme just SSP?

Vaccine yes I’ll give you that one

"Well,your point 1 is untrue and didn’t happen. That was completely made up and twisted by the media.

So I didn’t bother reading the rest.

Really?

Really? as in I don't believe you didn't read the rest or..

Really? as in 'your point 1 is untrue and didn’t happen. That was completely made up and twisted by the media'?

Or both?

Please clarify

I'd like to know how the media completely made up the herd theory?

And Sir Patrick began to talk about the concept of herd immunity. Speaking about the coronavirus he said: "It's not possible to stop everybody getting it and it's also actually not desirable because you want some immunity in the population. We need immunity to protect ourselves from this in the future."

and.. .

Sir Patrick was on BBC Radio 4's Today programme. He said the thinking behind the government's approach was to try to "reduce the peak", and because most people would only get a "mild illness", to "build up some degree of herd immunity…

and...

On 12 March, the chief scientific adviser, Patrick Vallance, and chief medical officer, Chris Whitty, announced that the UK had moved from containing the virus to delaying its spread. Their plan was to flatten the curve of the epidemic that would sweep through our population. They reassured us that herd immunity would kick in once 60% of the population had been infected.

I think the OP requires an apology "

The op very specifically blamed Boris.... You haven't mentioned Boris in your above... But you have mentioned some scientists.

Whereas the nhs order the ppe but because there wasnt enough it was Boris's fault, you cant have it both ways, also there was a worldwide shortage of ppe several countries stopped exporting it which didnt help, as for testing we are testing nearly ten times the number France is, we are sequencing half the amount the rest of the world is put together.

The major issue at the start was sending old folks back to care homes, however despite asking many times no one has suggested where else they could have gone, the nightingale hospitals werent running and hospital.beds were needed for covid patients that had a realistic chance of surviving,now while some will scream every life matters governments have to make painful choices and plenty of other countries also did the same.

You side stepped my question ... apart from the vaccine what has he done right? "

Cant you read ? As I said,

One of if not the highest testing rates per million in the world,

50 % of the total worlds sequencing, which is vital for detecting new variants.

Billions spent protecting jobs and businesses.

"Nothing to do with the UK being a relatively older, over weight population and any death with 28 days of having a positive Covid test... cause of death COVID 19

Presumably we are the only country on the planet with an aging population?

It's not only age, it's being among the fattest, unfittest and a higher than average bame population

I forgot no other countries had bame populations

Try looking up percentages

Right ok

So we are really unlucky then aremt we?

We seem to uniquely affected by having the most overweight,lazy and elderly populations in the world combined with a uniquely high bame population which have all contributed to a shocking death rate, which is nothing whatsoever to do with how the crises has been handled.?"

You're right... In the first part yes.. Even though you are being sarcastic. And the second part you are wrong... Because even though you say it has nothing to do with the govt response it very much was mishandled at the start. You missed off lots of other factors too. Like demographics, population densities, behaviour compliance to name but a few.

Is testing and has it worked well for months? Do you have any evidence of a handful of people being sent long other than Facebook? You see there was about a month when it was difficult and yet actually still worked with a little persevernce. Now in the middle of a national crisis I dont expect things to be perfect and I do expect that I might be asked to be a little flexible for a while. Testing has been running well for quite a while now.

Now whether or not testing 1m people a day is a good strategy... Well we will find out. But we are bloody good at testing loads of people now.

Of course it will. The govt manage our money... What adult thinks all this is for free? Either you say they should pay people for isolating... In which case we all pay for it and as will our children (the ones thta have been bastardised all through this) or we dont pay for isolation...

Because I dont really understand how in a state run institution,issues like ppe are nothing to do with the gmnt.

They are ultimately responsible for how the nhs is run.

"He also bought more vaccine than the rest of the EU put together with which we have vaccinated nearly 50% of the UK population and reduced deaths from Covid massively. You forgot that one

While that is true, do you think it erases the previous culpability over our European winning death rate total?

So many things I'd like to say but...

1)It is possible for people to make mistakes and also do some other things well.

2) making mistakes and getting things wrong does not mean everything you do is a mistake or wrong.

3) doing some things well does not mean you do everything well.

Wow abs that’s your assessment of the most incompetent leader of all time?

Point 3 what has he done well? (He ordered vaccine yes but the NHS actually rolled it out so not that one)

Whereas the nhs order the ppe but because there wasnt enough it was Boris's fault, you cant have it both ways, also there was a worldwide shortage of ppe several countries stopped exporting it which didnt help, as for testing we are testing nearly ten times the number France is, we are sequencing half the amount the rest of the world is put together.

The major issue at the start was sending old folks back to care homes, however despite asking many times no one has suggested where else they could have gone, the nightingale hospitals werent running and hospital.beds were needed for covid patients that had a realistic chance of surviving,now while some will scream every life matters governments have to make painful choices and plenty of other countries also did the same.

You side stepped my question ... apart from the vaccine what has he done right?

Cant you read ? As I said,

One of if not the highest testing rates per million in the world,

50 % of the total worlds sequencing, which is vital for detecting new variants.

Billions spent protecting jobs and businesses.

Billions that will be recouped

Of course it will. The govt manage our money... What adult thinks all this is for free? Either you say they should pay people for isolating... In which case we all pay for it and as will our children (the ones thta have been bastardised all through this) or we dont pay for isolation... In which case they are criticised for not paying people to isolate.

Were you under the impression that govt expenditure doesnt need to be funded?

No of course not but it sort of negates the gmnt being in some way benevolent with that money.

They spent out millions to keep the economy afloat but they will get it back."

Nobody has said this govt have done anything benevolent. They introduced a policy is all. Its either a good policy or its not.

Regrettably, I do find that some people have no knowledge of what the meaning is and objectives are when a 'discussion' is being had.

One cannot have a meaningful discussion on any subject, especially a political one, if one side harbours fixed ideas, a disrespect of the subject in question and a sneering sarcasm if their statements of 'truth', (their interpretation, that is) is challenged or, indeed, proven to be false.

I read many posts on Fab, I know there are some intelligent and genuine contributors here. There are others who are seemingly intent on demolishing a reasonable and adult discussion where they find it, occasionally succeeding in completely 'knocking the wind' out of a previously rational thread, forcing tolerant and respectful contributors to abandon an otherwise healthy exchange of viewpoints.

I myself have now adopted a 'no engagement' policy when I see this kind of behaviour on a thread. I have realised the futility of engaging certain people as I once did, no good comes of it, I have far more important business to attend to in my very happy and content life here on this good Earth.

Finally, possibly this last post for some time wouldn't be complete (to me, that is..!) without sending my respect, love and best wishes to a tiny number of 'regulars' on the forum who debate with tolerance and respect, even when the same is not returned. I also hasten to add the fact these good folk are not all of one sex nor do they all hold common political views.

they hold their own with dignity and give in return their polite response and, perhaps more importantly, the sources(s) to back up their posts.

They know who they are, I'm certain...!

I don't the Op likes Boris very much. Never mind he'll get the chance to vote him out in a little over 3 1/2 years time.

Mind you, Labour will need a credible leader for that to happen though.

"It's like no-one knew anything about a completely new virus. Damn our world leaders and other professionals failing to be able to see into the future!

Yes, lots of things have been done very badly BUT a lot of the info from early on, for example, can children catch/transmit, we're always couched (by scientists) as being only working hypotheses, because we simply did not know!

Fifteen months on from its emergence in China, we know a lot more about the science, but we still can't possibly know everything. For example, we have no idea what the long term effects are of natural Covid infection and can't ever know that until we've followed patients for a number of years.

I knew about deaths in China in the November 2019..thousands of them, the crematoria were operating 24/7 to get rid of the dead. Literally dying in the streets in some cases..

Models predicted and laid out what was needed to protect ourselves in such a situation. Basically it was ignored..

Schoolboys are running the show, the same ones that cried at school when someone called them names..

We need some grown ups with balls / spunk/ grit to sort this continual shit show out

Lives matter

Given the leadership of countries who have done much better I'd suggest a leader with a vagina rather than balls.

A Jimmy krankie lookalike maybe

Is this the same Jimmy krankie who makes boris look even. Bufoonish than usual?

Perhaps we should roll out Joe Anderson to run things in his own inimitable way

This may come as a shock to you...Joe Anderson is not the pm."

I think the shock may come when this government step in to get your councils affairs in order. Then you'll have something to belly ache and whine about.

Johnson an absolute clown and will go down in history as the worst PM the UK has ever elected

According to him today the successful vaccination programme is down to greed and capitalism not the marvellous NHS and the vaccination teams.

The sooner this bellend is out of government the better, a comedy figure never a PM.

3) doing some things well does not mean you do everything well.

Wow abs that’s your assessment of the most incompetent leader of all time?

Point 3 what has he done well? (He ordered vaccine yes but the NHS actually rolled it out so not that one)

Well if you apply that superficial level of thought to the above one could conversely say for example.....

The nhs order the ppe therefor he had nothing to do with it...

Or the nhs manage their processes and procurements so shortages in nurses, Dr's, beds... Well the nhs manage that so that's nothing to do with him.

You see the argument works both ways. Now I'm not defending him. I'm just saying the govt have done some things well amongst the many things that they haven't. But here's a thing... If we were all perfect and hadn't spread it to eachother... Well it would look different too.... Boris doesn't force anyone to be overweight and unhealthy and yet we are the fat boys of Europe.... Once again... I'm not in anyway defending some of the disaster that govt have been in charge of... But not everything they have done has been bad. And before you ask I'll give you a few... Furlough scheme, testing, vaccine program.

What do the dept of health do?

I have no idea but I'm sure google will help you. I could have a stab at a guess though. Why do you ask?

Well I would have thought they helped run the NHS?

So you admit you dont know what they do but do know boris is at fault for not buying ppe, not a good day for you again, that's the second thing you have admitted not knowing but still know boris is at fault que some more deflection"

So many things I'd like to say but...

1)It is possible for people to make mistakes and also do some other things well.

2) making mistakes and getting things wrong does not mean everything you do is a mistake or wrong.

3) doing some things well does not mean you do everything well.

Wow abs that’s your assessment of the most incompetent leader of all time?

Point 3 what has he done well? (He ordered vaccine yes but the NHS actually rolled it out so not that one)

Whereas the nhs order the ppe but because there wasnt enough it was Boris's fault, you cant have it both ways, also there was a worldwide shortage of ppe several countries stopped exporting it which didnt help, as for testing we are testing nearly ten times the number France is, we are sequencing half the amount the rest of the world is put together.

The major issue at the start was sending old folks back to care homes, however despite asking many times no one has suggested where else they could have gone, the nightingale hospitals werent running and hospital.beds were needed for covid patients that had a realistic chance of surviving,now while some will scream every life matters governments have to make painful choices and plenty of other countries also did the same.

What would I have done differently if in charge?

1. Read the Cygnus Report & order PPE

2. Attended & Led Cobra meetings & actually listen to ‘the science’

3. Shut the borders

4. Stopped super spreader events - Cheltenham, European Football, all crowd events

5. Avoid shaking peoples hands!

6. Lockdown earlier

I think this would have madeca significant difference.

It's not possible to say what you might have done then, with the benefit of hindsight you can now claim this is what you might have done."

He was told not to shake hands before hand.

Lets not forget that different countries report deaths differently. You can't just compare like for like. The UK death rate from covid reporting in no way resembles somewhere say like Africa which has large areas of remote villages, which are going to be included (at best) rarely.

There is no such thing

No one is 'winning '

However some countires have much lower death rates than others.

I agree with most of that apart from 2 important things that you've missed off...

Even if he were superman / woman / god or goddess he doesn't run the country on his own, I dislike it being personalised to one person, its inaccurate and its unnecessary and I understand the need for some to use it for effect. He relies on an impartial group of scientists and a civil service for much of the decision making and execution.

Secondly, an item you missed from the list is that they have relied all along on the great British public doing the right things, doing as was asked of them in a time of global crisis... An example being...

We want a Xmas we want a Xmas how inhumane we can't have a Xmas, how draconian we can't have a Xmas.... Which 3 days before changed to some saying .. Hmmm maybe it's not such a bright idea, 2 days before... Actually.. We have new evidence and people should have a modest Xmas and not meet too many people.. a few more saying... Well fuck it I've planned it all now and bought me food so I'm doing it because 2 weeks ago Boris said we can have Xmas together....choosing to forget what was said afterwards.

So on your list...

7. Stronger, firmer leadership with clear enforcement of rules and guidelines from day 1...ie "we aren't fucking about here"... And yes that would have included throwing cummings to the wolves... (even though the police found he had done no wrong somehow)...

On the last point i don't for one moment believe intelligent people can bla. E someone else for breaking the guidelines but as sure as shit if he'd have been binned it would have removed one of the most commonly trotted out defences.... But he didn't, they did.. And here we are.

And here's me thinking all along that the pandemic was a global effort to stem the tide of the virus, when it appears we've been in a race to win it? Irrespective of the fact that winning wouldn't be winning really, because while there are countries lagging behind the theat of virus upsurge will always be there.

Winning implies competition, the only competition we're in is against the virus itself, and every other country is also in that particular competition.

Re Christmas johnson was told to have a circuit break before Christmas by sage and starmer agreed with this.

He completely ignored it and accused starmer of wanting to cancel Christmas. This is nothing whatsoever to do with the public,this is johnson trying to appear popular and using covid to score political points.

When he was forced to shut down a few weeks later,this led to the unnecessary deaths of x amount of people.

He needs to answer for that.

When boris compares us to other countries it's a morale booster but when someone does it on here ,its not a valid comparison.

"When did the global pandemic change and become a global competition?

When the gmnt used to compare our death rate to other countires and boris announced we had vaccinated more people than the rest of Europe?

And here's me thinking all along that the pandemic was a global effort to stem the tide of the virus, when it appears we've been in a race to win it? Irrespective of the fact that winning wouldn't be winning really, because while there are countries lagging behind the theat of virus upsurge will always be there.

I'm presuming you are just ignoring my posts which dont suit your narrative?

"I'll ask this one more time.

So why did the gmnt used to compare us with other countries"?

Possibly for information to show that this is a global pandemic, and how it's affecting countries around the world?

Fair enough.

Why did they stop?"

Dunno, I didn't attend the relevant COBRA meeting, it's not information I'm privy to, nor you I suspect?

I didnt

I suspect it was probally coincidental they stopped at around the same time as our rate overtook most of europe.

Agreed, so our vaccine rollout isn’t really winning either

Didnt boris say our vaccine roll out was the the best in Europe?

A view echoed on here.

To be honest, when Boris has compared us to other countries, I've never once heard him say it in a competitive way or imply it's a competition... Have you?

Ok..when boris said our vaccine rate was better than most of europe..this was in no way an attempt to say how much better we were doing than the rest of europe?

Again, to help build confidence, not imply we're winning some kind of global race would be my interpretation

"He also bought more vaccine than the rest of the EU put together with which we have vaccinated nearly 50% of the UK population and reduced deaths from Covid massively. You forgot that one

While that is true, do you think it erases the previous culpability over our European winning death rate total?

What "European winning death rate" some people just shouldn't be allowed to watch MSM. It peaked for a week but has never been a winning total unless you massage the figures to suit the argument

How do you measure ‘death rate’?

The dead bodies get counted

Then we are the worst in Europe

Not by population we are not

Make your mind up, if it is about ‘counting dead bodies’ we are the worst "

No we're probably one of the best at counting, some are not as diligent as UK

Lets not forget that different countries report deaths differently. You can't just compare like for like. The UK death rate from covid reporting in no way resembles somewhere say like Africa which has large areas of remote villages, which are going to be included (at best) rarely.

Agreed which is why it was futile to try and compare

I'll ask this one more time.

So why did the gmnt used to compare us with other countries,?"

If you have to keep asking you're obviously not learning

Lionel....

Early on during our first wave of covid-19 the charts shown on TV was number of deaths.

This was not death rate it was number of deaths.

Fab...

Death rate is a calculation of population and number of deaths.

It's a simply calculation if you paid attention during your Math class.

"

Given the leadership of countries who have done much better I'd suggest a leader with a vagina rather than balls.

I hope you aren’t talking about Sturgeon! Given the density of population in Scotland she seems to have done far worse than Boris. Scotland’s deaths should be more on a par with those in Norway where as it is they aren’t much better than those in England."

Interesting suggestion about Norway. Would be interested to know if you know anything at all of either Scotland or Norway to make the comparison. Let me give you a hint- you are wrong.

Deaths from purely from Covid 2020 250. With Covid on death certificate- 6500.

You really, really need to educate yourself better.

‘Boris’ and ‘Sturgeon’

Says it all, really.

Misogyny and class system at its worst.

Calling him Boris doesn’t make him your friend. It doesn’t mean he’d say hi in the street or even consider you in any way whatsoever as an equal.

There is a phrase which I can’t remember, to describe his way of working- refers to former pupils of elite schools (I use the word ‘elite’ advisedly). They may say anything at all to others and they are believed, thought of as a ‘jolly chap’ and intelligent but harmless.

Consider yourselves being worked big time.

It means nothing, just like your statement meant nothing . He didn’t get an 80 seat majority because the electorate wanted to leave the EU
