Wow the whataboutery is off the scale now. and as others have said you really don't have a clue about teacher's working patterns.

Agreed.

Very much this. Political debate in the media is now a very niche market, and has little impact on public opinion. Whereas a well targeted social media campaign can work wonders.

Wow didn't realise the Tory party were footing the bill for furlough. That's a relief, I thought it was being paid by tax payers.

I don't think anyone has suggested that the care-home deaths are being deliberately not classified as Covid-19 related. It is just that without sufficient testing available, it is impossible to categorise these as Covid related.

Christ! my bad, you're just trolling aren't you? Enjoy your day.

Really? the excess death rate has passed you by? That's quite a filter you are applying. https://news.sky.com/story/coronavirus-the-number-of-excess-deaths-in-care-homes-and-hospitals-compared-with-normal-times-is-revealed-11991080

Yeah Coogan is more than a bit of a tosser. But the Sun is only going after him in revenge for his objection to the phone hacking scandal. When it comes to "thoroughly nasty little men" you need look no further than the owner and editorial staff of the Sun. .

I appreciate you like to play devil's advocate on all this, but..... there is no need to be a medical bod to strongly suspect that these are covid related. Statistical analysis is sufficient to draw that conclusion.

Yes agreed. Lets see what else he's got in his locker. It's nice to see a broadly electable and capable leader of the opposition. For every naturally left leaning voter who is enjoying his intellect, there will be 20 undecideds who will think he is too clever by half. He doesn't need to...

Yes

As per my earlier post. No-one knows whether she has done a good job yet. Everyone agrees they know exactly what the strategy is though. People who understand what the strategy is are much better at sticking to it.

No, but her leadership style is exactly what is required in a crisis. She has been clear in her communications on what is happening and why. If people choose to ignore her (they haven't) then it's on them.

Don't disagree with what you are saying. He is the worst possible leader at the worst possible time. The point I am making is that the herd immunity approach might turn out to be the right call (economically). It is fairly obvious that is what is driving the deliberate double-speak and...

Now I'm a dyed in the wool socialist, who likes nothing more than putting the boot in to the Tories. However I acknowledge that this is a very difficult situation and no-one will know who had the best approach for a very long time. Germany have started to see rises following the lock-down...

If only elections were decided on policies and not on misinformation and tribal allegiance. I remember in 2010 there was an online questionnaire for people to answer which policies they most agreed with. My office of 12 predominantly working/middle class Tory voters did it. All but one...

Maybe not but that is whataboutery isn't it? Ultimately the Government are there to lead the country through good times and bad. That is the job. Every government are measured on their performance It doesn't matter a jot what the opposition would have done.
