When this all started.

She demanded more powers for scotland to tackle this virus.

At every opportunity she uses crisis for her own agenda.

Look at Brexit a Democratic vote and she wanted to go against it.

A classic sign of dictatorship

A political party wanting more power.

It’ll never catch on.

Imposing a 14 day self-isolation for anyone landing in the UK is way overdue. For months now people have been landing, no health checks nothing and allowed to leave Heathrow and straight onto the Tube.
In imposing this now Bori's Govt are tacitly admitting that it is sensible and should have been imposed much earlier. So hell knows why they are now waiting 17 days from announcement to implementation? Following the science on that one Boris?

Not sure what people expect here.

Nobody can cope with this level of stress over such a long and consistent period of time and that’s without not long coming out of ICU.

Christ almighty; he and his cabinet have made some awful decisions but they’ve also made some incredible ones.

There’s always some smart rse waiting in the wings to snipe away with the benefit of hindsight while contributing the square root of fwck all.

Not imposing a lockdown while Rome (well northern Italy) was burning despite clear advice from an
Italian Minister to not make the same mistake as Italy. Waited 2 weeks of humming and hawing before lockdown laws. Guilty as charged. Swaying off to the Carribean while the crisis escalated. Guilty as charged. Not imposing restrictions/isolation on people coming into the U.K. Imposing this 4 months late. Guilty as charged. Turning a blind eye to Care Homes only to see them turning into death traps. Guilty as charged. Abandoning testing in mid March and panicking now to get them done. Guilty as charged. Moving and confusing the nation by broadcasting ‘Stay Alert’ Guilty as charged. The list keeps growing. These are not isolated incidents. These are the long list of grave mistakes made by a bunch of over promoted and incompetent ‘populist’ politicians. Shameful.

Well well well

Heed being erm, heed.

As I said (umpteen times ffs) he and they have made some awful mistakes. And they in turn have cost lives.

Why some people want to keep coming back with the blindingly obvious and recognised failings is beyond me when all I said was that no politician could cope with this continuous stress after coming almost straight out of ICU ffs.

Some even try and justify it by mentioning other politicians who haven’t been hospitalised and near death. Amazing really. Wish people would read and respond instead of reading, ignoring and warbling on about their own agendas is if that somehow or other makes the original point invalid. I live in forlorn hope though.

Sheeesh.

See this 'near death' line you are peddling; either Boris is physically fit to do his job in which case people are quite right to attack some his actions, inaction and less than convincing arguments. If he is not fit then he should realise that, realise akso that his judgement might be compromised and that he needs to get out at least for now.

Tully, you are correct. We have 100% accurate £40 test at home in an hour kits coming in weeks. Coming in / back into the country then pay £100 and you get the test. The surcharge for the admins to ensure compliance and / or to pay for something else. A tax on travel if you like - so be it.

Ideally we'd all sign up to doing this at departure before any cant got on a plane in the boring departure lounge anyway. Cross cooperation with countries that all do it so you can be in and away once you land.

We have to get away from the 'dirty foreigner' outlook when we were one of the worst!

What utter nonsense I am reading on here, Health is a devolved issue and the First Minister has 100% the right to go Scotland's own path, people just listen to her and take any comment as some Anglophobic remark , its utter schite, the 4 stage plan is what they have gone with, does anyone know if that plan is better or worse that any other leaders plan?

I hope all the nations of the World have a good plan but don't castigate her for her politics when she is only trying to lead the country out of a Pandemic, I wont put the boot into Boris not now at this time its unfair, put your politics aside until this is over ffs.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

In turn

Utter baws

Her plan is the one adopted by the whole of the U.K. it’s not her plan.

She just jumps the gun to announce it and then enacts it later. Why?

posted on 23/5/20

What are Boris' main qualities and strengths ginger? Instead of making excuses for his incompetence? Is he a strong leader? Good speaker? I don't actually know as I've never really seen him.

If Boris is fit enough to be PM then he needs to defend his actions. Including 'No10's support so far for Gollum Cummings'.

----------------------------------------------------------------------

I believe he has that quality of getting people behind him, positivity and drive. (Not while he’s ill obviously). I am a Conservative at heart although in the past I’ve voted Lib Dem and Labour.

What was before me was a series of choices on how the economy should function, being in or out of the EU and a few other things that to me gave me little choice. There were simply no other contenders. He promised to rebuild the NHS and undertake huge capital investment and move away from austerity.

Nobody saw this coming and far less the extent of it regardless of how many “experts” say otherwise. Because of this we may never know now.

I’d happily see the back of Patel and Cummings in a heart beat btw.

The man is ill. Of that there can hardly be any doubt.

So what Ginger if the plans are the same, must we allow Boris and England to speak first some fooking Union that is, sit on our hands until England speaks then we can slither out and comment fook that. That kind of schite has held this nation back for centuries lets just do what our big and better neighbour does, fook that I am no sycophant.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

They don’t. Sturgeon is party to all talks at Cobra. She now can’t be trusted and is one of the last to be invited.
