And all of the coronavirus deaths in all four administrations are down to Boris. Even from his ICU bed he was killing thousands. No doubt he is also responsible for burying the Nike conference threat and for killing hundreds of elderly people in Scottish care homes. The word ‘unprecedented’ has been much used in this crisis and rightly so. That’s why I’m not criticising lockdown decisions made by any of the four leaders. No doubt some will turn out to be wrong when examined subsequently. But zoomers like you just want to peddle your political agenda. (I believe Tam Cowan may have been the first to poke gentle fun at Nicola’s shoes. All very harmless.) Hahahaha you’ve done nothing but slag Sturgeon and you do it in this post, you’re hatred of her knows no bounds and you don’t even realise it. You have defended BJ since this has started, trying desperately to deflect from his incompetence, that’s led to thousands dying needlessly. . As for talking about someone’s appearance it’s actually sexual harassment in the workplace, it’s also one of the reasons women don’t get involved in politics. But if you want to slate anyone go and have a look at two suit BJ, two shirts, two ties and as for that bowl cut hahahaha what a state .

Eventually other countries banned flights to and from the UK and the airlines decided to park up the planes as the people had decided not to fly...This was not government, not leadership...it was dithering, laissez-faire inaction and it ultimately cost thousands of lives along with all the other mistakes and omissions and dilly-dallying... Totally agree, like I said, I'm not sticking up for the government just pointing out how much easier it was to do for Oz and NZ. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
