Re: Coronavirus: Third wave will 'wash up on our shores', warns Johnson

As I said a few posts ago, let's wait and see whether Boris goes back on his ending of lockdown!

He's certainly not the PM I at first thought he was.

Patel, like Boris, has been a disappointment to me after having expected great things from her.

I have to say that it takes guts to listen to medical advice and implement unpopular policies against the tide of mass opposition. Boris at least learns from his mistakes rather than repeat them by bowing to what must be great pressure.

Nobody can criticise the strength of the British vaccination programme. This was in fact the brain child of Matt Hancock although Boris gets credit as he is the PM. Whatever their other faults the government have done a great job to turn our situation around with unpopular decisions.

I'm not a fan but she had her work cut out basically starting at base zero infrastructure.

Well, I could comment but it would take too long - my thesis on the ineptitude of the Johnson government now runs to well over 1000 pages .....

True. The vaccination programme has been excellent.

It takes a government working together and a lot of guts to go out and procure vaccines that have not yet even been through their stage 2 and 3 research. A massive risk and it's so fortunate they took that chance because we are ahead of the curve despite the variants. We are incredibly lucky to be in a country where we have the option to have a vaccine so quickly. Our elderly population are so much safer.

For all we know you could have some well chosen rude words in v large font. The circus in charge have certainly kept us entertained during this difficult time.

What infrastructure?

All she had to do was to instruct the Border Farce to turn them around.
There were always French ships accompanying them, supposedly to keep them safe. Well, let the Frogs look after them on their side of the border.

Thank God we didn't have Boris and Priti in the Second World War.
