Here's A Thought....i'd Like Those Who Are Very Happy Knocking Boris's Leadership
To give us an alternative and why would they do better than he and his cabinet are doing,remember it's the party and not the man who got in with a good majority
Over to the Boris knockers
( not sure what section, sorry Ed)

the alternative is: no change and go out into the streets and play - business as normal
no not me - you asked what they wanted. Crazy Kent MP from the toilet county doing it on telly yesterday
making the point that the country of Kent should be free
not - - - er ---- doing THAT ( on tv or even on the tv)

Even the idea that Corbyn would be pulled in different ways by "experts" misses the key point: what if the PM were capable of even a passable understanding of the evidence and data analysis themselves? Would that not make a difference to how they responded? A PM with a medical or scientific background would almost certainly have a different reaction to, or different questions for, the experts they are consulting on this.
Even if you strip that away, a PM with a different idea of how to balance the competing factors would reach different conclusions; and even if you strip that away too, it's not difficult to find plenty of countries around the world who have had different (and, frankly, better) responses.
Finally, the entire premise of the thread is nonsense: you don't have to identify a solution in order to identify a problem.

"The point is would our resident anti British lefty brigade be so vocal about that?"
Probably not. But our resident right on Rabid Right brigade would have a field day.
Personally, TTT, i agree with your first statement. No matter who was in charge, the scientists would have to be listened to, and decisions based on their advice. As i have said (and i'm almost sure you did, too, some time back) Boris has cherry-picked which advice to cock an ear to.
Other PMs, however, may not have pulled dates out of the air, nor made such wild promises as "World beating track and trace."

// ... he has had no choice but to listen, he didn't have a degree in the sciences ... //
There are at least two examples that completely undermine your point: Thatcher *did* have a degree in science (and, in the modern age, so does Merkel with a PhD). That would have an impact. At the other end of the scale, Trump has no understanding of science, or anything else, at all, and doesn't listen to his experts. Actually, there's evidence to show that Johnson has dithered and delayed in implementing expert advice as well.
Comforting as it may be to argue that no leader would have done any differently, it's manifestly false.
