I hope he can make amends now and learn from the mistakes...No promises of "It'll all be over by....", no "Do please try to...if you can", no more "Great British Public" shite. Tighten up the loopholes and exemptions because people will find a way to carry on regardless because of their "mental health". Mental health has become the greatest excuse for non compliance sadly and it belittles what we go through on a daily basis.
Couldn't agree more.
The FACT is more people would be alive right now if Boris the buffoon wasn't at the helm.

I think that Mrs F has hidden away behind a closed door for too long and so do you. It can't be good for her to be chronically immobile when there is no reason for her to take to her bed. I'm sure that a diet of chocolate and sweets can't be good for her Crohns either.
Your daughter is having to self-isolate, isn't she?

You could very well be right, but surely whoever was in power would have got it in the neck. Johnson, May, Cameron, Brown, Blair, Major, Thatcher, you name them!

I don't think Maggie would have hesitated in taking immediate action to safeguard the UK. Remember the Falklands?...I do.

She is Pulisa. Though she's not talking to me right now, not that we were anyway because she only communicates via text. Mrs F's diabetes isn't helped by her diet either.
Re: Covid-19 discussion thread
I emailed you FM. But your daughter will get over it. She's just butt hurt because she had to do some adulting.

Surely the Falklands affair vs the Covid-19 pandemic is like comparing apples with oranges?

"Common sense" is anything but common, as the Great British Public demonstrates on a daily basis. Doubly so in Alex's case.

Pressure sores can become a real risk here with chronic immobility, along with a risk of oedema in her legs. It was these sores getting infected that put Mrs. PM in hospital with kidney failure back in 2008.

Sturgeon and Drakeford have done a far better job at protecting their people than bungling Boris.
