How’s that then?
If you don’t think ANYONE could’ve done better than this set of clowns then you’re a complete mug.
Whoever would’ve thought that making Harvester half price for a month wouldn’t save the economy? Truly ingenious economics there from midget Sunak. Lots of Tory donors have done well out of it though. Hundreds of millions of our money given to their mates for PPE that doesn’t work or doesn’t exist. A track and trace system, headed up by a telecoms spokesperson (wife of ex Tory mp) and outsourced to accountants and bean counters, that doesn’t work.
It’s saps like you that ensure this keeps happening.
The "well it could have been worse" argument has always been very poor. The only defence of the absolute sh1t show that has been the Government's handling of PPE procurement I've heard is that it "triggers the lefties". Why is it so difficult for right wingers to admit that they've basked the wrong horse? The waste of public money is on a massive scale. They don't even try to pretend anymore that the whole thing isnt done to benefit Tory donors. It should be shocking to the whole country.

I am not a right winger Ian like many I am middle of the road and cast my vote to whom I think will do the best job of being my MP.
Mostly it has been Labour but over the last few elections it's been conservative.
I don't think this government is doing a fantastic job but then again it has been very difficult times and I shudder to think what Corbyn would have done if he had got the job.
We all have our opinions and nobody is right or wrong it's just our opinion.
Like you I am not into name calling on here it just shows you are losing the argument.
Anyway won't it be great to talk about football most of the time instead of politics.😴

I think most people would agree that the government has been very poor and a huge disappointment since taking office. The U turns and general malaise has been unfathomable when you have an 80 seat majority and had the goodwill of the public. I suspect more voters will be disappointed in their failure to address illegal immigration, the joke of a justice system and putting British taxpayers at the forefront of their thinking but despite protestations on here the Labour party are as far away as ever of providing a suitable alternative.

You appear to be arguing against something you’ve imagined in your own head, again. I don’t think anyone’s said anything about Sir Haircut’s Blair tribute party, let alone protested on their behalf.
Anyway, claiming asylum is legal under U.K. and international law, and the Tories granted British citizenship to 3 MILLION residents of Hong Kong a few weeks back.
Have a great evening.

Eh? Lots of posters in this thread including you have argued for left wing government's. Keir Starmer's version of left wing might not suit you but that is the only version on offer to the electorate. The people trying to come into the UK via Channel crossings are illegal. They have already taken refuge in a number of countries before trying to get to the UK. If we take people from Hong Kong that would be our choice and they would be legal.

It's a shitshow. Just a government of continuous calamitous decisions and then shirking responsibility by blaming others. Their new stage managed answer to everything seems to be something about being world beating. Gavin Williamson questioned this morning if he is going to resign, he answers by saying he is going to spend the next year working on a world beating education system. Similar to Boris Johnsons world beating test and trace system eh? Doomed.
And to think, there is still a no deal Brexit to come.

They have not got authorisation to come to the UK legally. Isnt that enough? Why dont you test the theory and try entering another country without authorisation and let us know how you get on.

I’m starting to get the impression you don’t quite fully know what you’re talking about. Which, if true, would be a truly earth-shattering revelation.
