Was Boris persuaded to make his decisions? If he was, it was surely to hide the extent to which the NHS has been run down over the years of Tory control and chipping bits of the NHS off and underfunding.
The WHO warned EVERY country to be prepared for a pandemic. So WHY didn't the UK have enough critical care beds to cope? Respirators? PPE...........just look at the PPE fiasco..........not enough? Hard to believe wasn't it that volunteer groups were making PPE out of spare bits of fabric donated by the public! It was pretty late in the day that the government "bought" PPE from Turkey...........then.......can you believe it????..........it ALL had to be returned as substandard! For heavens sake......it seems we have a bunch idiots running the country:

As for the SAGE experts..........I think they were thrown together at the last minute and told to advise............no pre-planning........no crisis planning........no pandemic planning.........WHY? You CANNOT fight a pandemic with decisions taken within the last five minutes.......it takes years of planning and collaboration with other countries!!!
Tragic! Inefficient! Ignorant! Criminal..........
Oh Lindy, It was a crisis?, In a crisis plans have to be thrown together
at the last minute, thats why its called a crisis! Otherwise it would be
called a contingency in which you have a proper plan to combat
whatever the contingency is?
I agree the tories have starved the NHS of resources etc but this has
been over quiet a long period and cant be laid at anyone persons
door, particularly this present lot?
Plus the NHShas been mismanaged for quite a long time too! but
that is another story!!
OGF is quite correct to say without the economy there will be more
hardships ahead than covid will cause??
Donkeyman! 😷😷😷
