He IMPLIED it and no matter the spin from Tory apologists he might have well just said it, Piers Morgan is usually not one i listen tno but he has been bang on in pulling up the Tories on their utter shambles of their handling of this pandemic. Could you imagine if this was a Labour government just now. Oh and this point scoring is another Tory cop out to divert or take the spotlight on them. Everything they have done to date concerning the PPE to the NHS is a POLITICAL choice, front line NHS staff and those people dying because of the shambolic handling of PPE is a POLITICAL government policy choice, no hiding place there. So point scoring in my eyes is holding this bunch of utter clown to account. Edited May 6, 2020 by maroonlegions Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You’ve lost any impetus in try to put him down when you don’t quote exactly what he said as did the Daily Mail and other media outlets. It’s typical bad reporting looking for sensationalism.

He chose his words very carefully ,and he DID in an indirect way ,while you like it or not ,insinuated for her to watch her tone, what other way can anyone take that.

It’s just riles me people don’t actually listen to or read the words and follow the crowd in throwing stones. As an aside I think the Government were slow in reacting to this Pandemic. It could well have saved lives if they reacted quicker. We will no doubt find out in the fullness of time. 'It could well have'......apologist of the highest rank for this government if you only think 'could well have saved lives' is accurate The governments failures have caused the deaths of thousands..get that thousands and there is no could well have about it. Stop taking party views and just deal with the facts Fact the government were slow and knew they were slow to react so tried to cover their backsides with advance promises not here today promises..everything was by the end of nest week next month etc etc They have twisted stats to try and make themselves appear 'better'..I mean how is it testing reached 100,000 on the very last day of their pledge and since then it has been no where near being reached...I call that lying to the public. (Doncaster may have something to learn from them) Fact they cost the lives of many with the lack of protective clothing for those in need of such, never mind the time taken to deliver it and to the right places Fact their policies have failed to truly contain the virus Too late to stop flights in and out, a failure to test arrivals or order them in quarantine, Too late to take action re lockdown when the evidence was clear weeks before....a failure to test until it was brought to a wider public how little they were doing All of the above is the fault of the government of the day who happen to be the Tory party and as such must take the responsibility. Would it have been different with another party in power..who knows? but the question is irrelevant as they were not Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scoring political points doesn’t sit right with me atm. Unfortunately we cannot, because they are abusing the powers given them in the wake of this crisis to further enrich their insider pals. UK government 'using pandemic to transfer NHS duties to private sector' Doctors, campaign groups, academics and MPs raised the concerns about a “power grab” after it emerged on Monday that Serco was in pole position to win a deal to supply 15,000 call-handlers for the government’s tracking and tracing operation. They said the health secretary, Matt Hancock, had “accelerated” the dismantling of state healthcare and that the duty to keep the public safe was being “outsourced” to the private sector. In recent weeks, ministers have used special powers to bypass normal tendering and award a string of contracts to private companies and management consultants without open competition.

maroonlegions Posted May 7, 2020 Share Posted May 7, 2020 Handcock the puppet of those powerful healthcare multinationals who want all aspects of the NHS in their hands through the trojan horse called privatisation. JustinZ is bang on with his post on the subject. Going back to his underhand and sneaky response being seriously put on the spot by Dr Roseana Allin Khan in Parliament. What we seen there was him demanding obedience and compliance, just like Starmer gives. MANCOCK was utterly disgusting there, displaying the arrogance and sexist gaslighting that all frustrated middle management wankers display when they see that nobody gives into their phallic dreams of control freakery. The whiny little worm squealed like a rat in an iron box. She is now probably in danger of losing her job, due to actually questioning the government. I do hope I am wrong.

This doesn't even cover the half of it. Many of, if not all these companies are Tory donors or their senior personnel are. Some like Serco have already been convicted of defrauding the government but here we are inviting them back for more and not even bothering with a tendering process. They would have to be delighted that the government's mishandling of this "science" led response to the pandemic afforded them such opportunities. They couldn't have done this on purpose, could they?

Cade Posted May 14, 2020 Share Posted May 14, 2020 (edited) Three Tory MPs including the odious Nadine Dorries have been caught sharing a tweet from a far-right activist which features a heavily re-edited video of Sire Keir Starmer, which appears to show him making excuses for the lack of prosecution of grooming gangs. Keir is, in fact, listing reasons why the law was changed to avoid the failings he is describing. All of them have deleted their re-tweet and one of them has gone so far as to delete her entire Twitter account. No public apologies yet, though. Alex DePfeffel has refused to comment.

Seriously, the current Tory PM"s "BAD" isn"t an electable policy. You talking about their last set of "BAD" before the last election then. You do realise that this time around their BAD is a diffrent set of BAD. Its caused 1000s of deaths from COVID due to an utter fool of a tory PM who dithered, lied and GAGGED his scientific advisors on speaking out on their true feelings of the handling of his COVID response , right from the start he was lying. Try telling that to those friends and family members of those that died of this virus who also blame him. The Sunday Times reports that Boris Johnson wants to CUT social distancing to just 1m if scientific evidence can be found to JUSTIFY the move. Now deciding what you want to do , then trying to find evidence to justify it is the exact OPPOSITE of his mantra call from day one of "following the science". I would not be so eager to dismiss the possibility there is a high % of the UK population that are never going to forget his handling of this COVID 19 outbreak since day one and will vote with that still in their minds at the next GE.
