We are a fraction of your size and probably the only time there has been a general consensus in this country was 1939 to 1945 if my history is correct your country could not even get a general consensus then.

The PM does not attend most COBR meetingsWith an invisible PM unable to address the press article directly makes this matter a problem. The main sticking points seems to be PM missing 5 Cobra meets wrt corona and ignoring clear warnings and lack of preparedness. We just can't imagine former PMs doing that, reinforces some stereotypes of Johnson as gung ho and lazy.
This one is a strange complaint. Seems to me that a humanitarian gesture like this when China was in need and it hadn't yet reached us was the correct approach. Countries need to work together or we'll never get through this.
Which is true, but surely a world wide pandemic is not a 'normal' occurrence and as leader of the UK he should have been.......leading.The PM does not attend most COBR meetings
Imagine thinking that this pandemic could be separated from politics. Surely only a delusional Tory could think that way at this stage.
I do - I support what the government is currently doing.On the issue of Johnson going missing for two weeks in that critical period. Two things; the govt had chosen its path, which its since realised was wrong and changed tack. And hindsight has determined it was a critical period.
There were missed opportunities, and some things might need to change going forward. Lets ask the questions and keep the govt focussed but do we have to have a with hunt now?
Hogie, didn't you say that in the main you agree with and support what the govt is trying to do. And now they're a bunch of yes-men...bit like Mary Poppins waiting for the wind to change?
In normal times. These are not normal times. And they were not normal times back late Jan and Feb.The PM does not attend most COBR meetings
Yea we should definitely ignore expert advice and operate as we have been, with little real intervention from the top but with badges to say what a good job we’re all doing.I see Tony Blair is sticking his big nose/mouth in once more wanting "specialist czars" in charge of different areas. So basically another level of top bureaucracy and gimmicks to whatever the Government is already doing. Thanks Blair - stick to living on your millions and sod off.
Nice and measured response, thanks for that.I see Tony Blair is sticking his big nose/mouth in once more wanting "specialist czars" in charge of different areas.
