Not like the Daily Fail to exaggerate numbers...didn’t they tell us, along with Farage and his bigoted chums that there would be more Romanians coming over than there are actual Romanians in the world?

It has been rumoured that when the Cummings news broke that adorable chappy Piers Morgan offered to pay ITV a weeks wages (£100K ) if he could come in off his weeks holiday and do the presentation of the case promising to be nice to everybody who agreed with whatever his own opinion was. ITV refused saying that it was neck and neck between him and Cummings for "Should he be sacked " vote. I have now voted and the " Fat Bstard" will be sacked to a fanfare of trumpets live on air on Monday. Boris and that Labour bloke said it was absolutely true but have both agreed to disagree for the sake of politics

This thread is comedy gold...people sharing facts and being called boring or liars. Politicians who’ve blatantly lied to the public being defended in the name of queen and country and blind nationalism.
Conservative leaning people hating on the the government, conservatives finding it impossible not to stick up for a government they can see is making fools of themselves but imposing the mantra of ‘must not criticise’.
We’ve got people desperately trying to remove the politics from a highly political situation.
You’ve got the odd chap using nonsense, meaningless barbs like ‘loony lefty’ and then every now and again there’s just some random retort like the one above because they can see their argument is weak. They’ve given up or they just don’t know.
What a time to be alive.
The same arguments have been had about governments, supporters of governments and opponents of governments since the beginning of time. Every government gets caught up in turmoil whether self made or not. No UK government would have handled this any better or worse; other governments would have a different emphasis in certain areas only to find other areas would have been missed or heavily criticised. You make it sound like the Conservative government invented the virus and are using it to kill us all off.

South Korea have just closed 200 schools again because they have 79 new cases nationwide, we had over 2000 new cases yesterday alone and that is only confirmed cases, this rush to pretend everything is nearly ok is not going to end well, new announcements and a rush to introduce a track and trace system that is clearly nowhere near ready to try and remove the Cummings affair from the news is madness. Many on here just seem to want to believe anything that comes from a blue tongue, we have failed, failed and are failing again to do what is best.
100% agree, it's a disaster waiting to happen.

Nearly every Government in the world has handled this better, how stupid are people like you to believe we are not at the very bottom of the league and still sinking. We are an international laughing stock and and example of worst practice. These are the facts, your seeming blinkered view does not alter that, It is not about left and right, Australia had a conservative Government as do Germany and Greece, they have shown us up for what we are, uncaring, organisably incompetent and unable to accept the mistakes we have made

My point was about UK governments. Different governments around the world have had different circumstances to deal with. This mantra that the UK is a laughing stock is in your head.

When governments like the Italian one are performing better than us we have a problem...
I think it’s the blatant lying to the public that is surely the one thing that should outrage the public but apparently not...

Pretending they are completely independent and what the U.K. government says does not affect them is disingenuous, however I believe if they have simile new cases to England they are just as wrong, two wrongs will never make something right, are we as a country following a completely different science to what has been shown to work in other countries? If we are it has failed completely

You should read some of the worlds press, we are shaking our heads at Trump, but our death rate is much much worse
