Is It Time For Boris Johnson To Resign?

[dave50]

I voted for him in the election along with millions of others in the North of England, seeing as someone who seemed to understand and be on the same wavelength as us Northern working class folk. However during this crisis it seems he has always playing catch up, never leading and in thrall to his scientific advisers who seems to be setting policy at the moment. Now all the backstabbing going on in no. 10 and his girlfriend now seems to be running the show by the backdoor. I have no confidence he won't make a pigs ear out of distributing the vaccine. I think the new year would be a good time to go along with matt Hancock. Rishi sunak should take over.

There are several countries that have more deaths per thousand than the UK.
Too many people here are not following the rules as I have said above.

On FB so don't shoot the messenger.

BREAKING: Dominic Cummings to leave Downing Street by Christmas. Unclear as yet who will take over as PM.

[emmie]

does it matter in the grand scheme of things, one is too many, and people are dying for want of a viable vaccine.

[tomus42]

I've always had the impression that BJ wanted to be PM simply because he wanted to be, without having much idea of what he was going to do once he got there. Gordon Brown was the same.

Of course he shouldn't resign. He should step up and do the job. Sort Brexit out (something he never thought he'd have to do) and deal with the pandemic.

[emmie]

maggie, already reported on here several times over. PM will stay put im sure.

Depends where you get your data:

“As of 12 November 2020, 254 772 deaths have been reported in the EU/EEA and the UK: United Kingdom (50 365), Italy (42 953), France (42 535), Spain (40 105), Belgium (13 758), Germany (11 982), Poland (8 805), Romania (8 389), Netherlands (8 205), Sweden (6 082), Czechia (5 570), Portugal (3 103), Hungary (2 784), Ireland (1 965), Bulgaria (1 898), Austria (1 473), Greece (909), Croatia (893), Denmark (753), Slovenia (424), Slovakia (414), Finland (365), Norway (285), Lithuania (235), Luxembourg (198), Latvia (103), Malta (85), Estonia (76), Cyprus (32), Iceland (24) and Liechtenstein (4).”

[emmie]

it couldn't have helped matters that he caught it early on, must have knocked him for six, and perhaps his confidence a tad too, i pity the situation he is now facing, fighting within his own party, luckily SKS doesn't seem much of a threat one way or the other.

[agchristie]

Whatever the true figures and however unprecedented the Government's handling has been a shambles and deceitful.Boris liked to talk abt 'dither and delay' abt Brexit but thats exactly wot hes done here.

The country has bn lied to again and again.Its fraudulent.I know several folk who have booked a test,not attended due to queues and got a positive result.

[Bobbisox1]

Agchristie why on Earth would anyone book a test and not bother going because of Qs ?

[ladybirder]

Trevor those figures mean nothing. You need the deaths per million of the population of the country concerned to be able to judge.

[agchristie]

Bobbi,cos they didnt expect the size of the queues/long delays and had to turn bk to go bk to work or collect their kids.

[TrevorThePug]

255,000 people dead means nothing......?

[naomi24]

ag, //I know several folk who have booked a test,not attended due to queues and got a positive result. //

How did they get a positive result if they didn't have a test?

[agchristie]

Doesnt it bother u that in any event they got a POS result??

[emmie]

you can ring 119 and request a test.

[naomi24]

Trevor, read what LB said.

[agchristie]

Naomi,u tell me but Ive seen it with me own eyes!!

[emmie]

ag, that doesn't make sense, how can you get any positive results if you don't take any test.

[agchristie]

There has bn numerous cases nationally
