Nobody wants anybody dead, some people are miffed that the party and government he leads have driving the NHS into the ground through a decade of austerity and now lots of people, who many of us love, will die.
He will get the best healthcare the country has to offer and some of us may get none atall, so i find it hard to break my heart over him 2bh but i hope he recovers because I value people over things like money, unlike tories. |

My compassion is for my cousin at this moment who has it and has been discharged from hospital into self isolation at home .... Boris I’m sure will do just fine with his private health care ...bet your bottom dollar he ain’t in that hospital !! |

"because I value people over things like money, unlike tories."
Is that all Tories?
Personally I detest the tribalism in politics that seems to have got worse since Brexit. |

"I'm a 'lefty' I don't want him dead. Just want a renewed love and value for the NHS from him..."
I agree! I certainly don’t want him dead but if people really want to support the NHS don’t vote conservative. |

One comment aside I haven’t seen anyone on here wanting him dead.
Twitter a shit load. Not a nice side of politics whoever these people are and what slant they have.
Peace, Love and wishing Boris and all those affected with this horrible virus a swift recovery. |

"Yes. All of them. You can be the nicest person in the world but if you back a party whose policies have consistent results, you back those results."
Unfortunately the NHS came second to BREXIT as an issue in December's election. |

"Why is it always the lefties who spout how compassionate they are- the ones who always seem to want other people (like Boris) dead? "
Yeah, you never hear of any right wingers wanting Corbyn dead on social media every single day, or threatening any other prominent left wing figures, or regularly committing hate crimes, or murdering British MPs n the street.
Makes you really wonder why it’s not called the compassionate right! |

Im more centre left and have what you would call libertarian views. I don't wish death on anyone and hope he recovers but for what he said about my city, gay people and his politics I still hate the buffon. |

I seem to remember a lot of the lefties saying it was an over reaction when the when they closed schools and other public places for something what was no worse than the flu. Now they have the nerve to claim boris never acted quickly enough and should have gone into lock down sooner.

Quite often it's a vocal or extreme minority of a group who give the rest a bad name. |

Alot of people, regardless of their political beliefs, did in fact beg for a lockdown and now that it's here won't follow the instructions. These are the same people that bitched about schools still being open in case their poor little cherubs got ill, the ones whose kids are now roaming the streets in gangs.
There are dickheads in ALL political parties. |

Can’t everyone just be in this together. I have strong political views but right now there’s more concerning things to worry about than arguing about left and right. |

Really never had time for B ( or high horse types spouting off and labelling anyone who disagrees with them 'lefties' btw) .
That said no one wants to see anyone die .. with luck he will recover and have an epiphany that will make him start to work the government around the 80% of most of the population instead of the 20% .. one never knows !

"Why is it always the lefties who spout how compassionate they are- the ones who always seem to want other people (like Boris) dead? "
I think the opposite is sometimes true, communists are against compassionate giving, they want the government to enforce exactly how much everyone gives to each other, be responsible for everyone’s needs, and don’t believe in any form of generosity or charitable giving. |

There is a difference between socialism and communism
Very few people want communism in this country. |

It seems that having a common enemy has shown that political views can be put aside for the greater good.
With all the rest of the troubles we face currently, stirring up political angst at this time seems a tad pointless.
Having read a few of the posts here, the only person you are making angry is yourself.. |

As evidenced by the general election only 4 months ago, not that many more want socialism, although you wouldn’t believe it if you spent your time on these forums or Twitter |

Jo Cox labour MP murdered by Thomas Mair an individual with far right views who shouted this is for Britain", "keep Britain independent", and "Put Britain first" during the attack.
"I will be forced to don khaki, pick up a rifle and head for the front lines" Nigel Farage
And then we had Priti Patel suggesting the UK govt threaten Ireland with food shortages in order to extract political concessions during the Brexit negotiations. |

Right. So the majority got it wrong? We’re all to stupid to see the ‘truth’? That’s why Labour got absolutely buried and a more centrist figure got elected to lead the Labour Party.
Awfully glad you’re the here to show us stupid people the light. |

I think May’s handling of both Grenfell and Windrush could give Priti a run for her money as could Gove. In fact, although I’m young, May and Blair are definitely the worst elected of each party in my lifetime. |

I’m not going for a bite mate. It’s a genuine question.
If the Right are so bad why do they keep winning. And why is Europe slowly turning that way. You can see the gains being made. |

Yes! Someone is asking the correct questions.
I guess we all have our own ideas. Mine is that the establishment are constantly fighting to gain more control. And by continually dividing the working class. It appears to be extremely successful. Largely through their control and influence over the media.
Just look at the amount of negative news over Labour and the anti semitism thing Vs the much larger problem of islamaphobia in the Conservative party as an example of how things were reported on Vs the actual size and severity of the problem.
And it's working too. We've got more Tory government and austerity, people on the news saying they voted Tory because "we need a change", it to "get brexit done". And yet a party that wanted to actually help people were completely demonised. |

Manipulation of the people via propaganda, using their power ovrr your same emotions that terrorists or dictatorships use, whilst also controlling the human priorities for shelter, safety, food, survival etc, is a very tried and tested methodology. Governments and leaders increasingly around the world are ensuring that they do this, stoking the fears, anger, hatred, division, fatigue and overwhelm, whilst they produce a facile solution, usually involving them taking more power away from the masses. |

" Have you ever saw anything from the right wing mob wanting anyone dead? Too many are quick to label anyone that shows compassion or stands up for minorities in any way as leftie snowflakes and I would guess by your attitude you are one. Oh and what a stupid narrow minded post that was.

"Why don’t the left ever really win in the UK that’s a question I want to know?
I don’t see Blair as a real left winger and we all know how he turned out.
There is an obvious answer but I wont bite.
Because we are traditionally a conservative nation..throw in the media narrative and bingo.
I’m not going for a bite mate. It’s a genuine question.
If the Right are so bad why do they keep winning. And why is Europe slowly turning that way. You can see the gains being made.
Yes! Someone is asking the correct questions.
I guess we all have our own ideas. Mine is that the establishment are constantly fighting to gain more control. And by continually dividing the working class. It appears to be extremely successful. Largely through their control and influence over the media.
Just look at the amount of negative news over Labour and the anti semitism thing Vs the much larger problem of islamaphobia in the Conservative party as an example of how things were reported on Vs the actual size and severity of the problem.
And it's working too. We've got more Tory government and austerity, people on the news saying they voted Tory because "we need a change", it to "get brexit done". And yet a party that wanted to actually help people were completely demonised. " |
